I Became the Older Brother of the Heroine in an Abusive Novel

However, Jun Huailang did not expect that Jun Xiaowu actually took him to a post house outside the city.

The posthouse is located outside the north gate of Chang'an. It has been built for some years. It is a three-story building, and the wooden structure has been worn and mottled.

The post house was not built by the government, and there were many traffickers, pedestrians and merchants resting here, and there were many cars, horses, donkeys and mules parked at the door, which seemed very lively.

The two of them went out of the mansion, in order not to attract attention, they did not take the carriage of the Duke's mansion.Therefore, the car stopped at the gate of the post house, and instantly merged into the bustling scene.

"What are you doing here?" Jun Huailang got out of the car and was immediately taken aback by the scene in front of him.He stopped at the door and asked puzzledly.

Surrounded by ordinary people in coarse clothes, talking and laughing loudly.There are merchants drinking horses and mules by the roadside, and there are porters loading and unloading goods. People come and go, making a lot of noise.

Although he is not a young master who stays at home all day long and does not eat the fireworks of the world, he has never been to such a place with such a strong atmosphere.

Jun Xiaowu was like a fish in water, and pushed him in with a smile.

Jun Xiaowu led him up to the second floor with ease, and found a place by the window to sit down.

There is no decoration in this post house, all are the simplest wooden structures, and the tables and chairs are also made of rough wood that cannot be seen from the material, but they are wiped clean.

The setting sun outside the window dimly shines in, which is quite quaint.

Both of them were dressed in brocade clothes, not stained with dust, sitting here immediately attracted a lot of attention.

"Guest officers, what would you like?" The waiter in the shop quickly stepped forward and poured tea for the two of them.

"Warm a pot of rice wine, and cut half a catty of beef." Jun Xiaowu lifted his leg up on the stool and said familiarly. "Cook a few more of your special dishes, and those who have more will be rewarded."

As he spoke, he put a piece of silver on the table.

Xiaoer suddenly knew that a big customer had come, his eyes lit up with joy, he accepted the money again and again, and then withdrew.

Jun Huailang looked at Jun Xiaowu.

This kid has learned to be a soldier ruffian in the barracks over the years.Standing here at this moment, asking for wine and meat at the top of his voice, doesn't he seem to have the slightest demeanor of a nobleman?

He tapped on the table and said with a faint smile, "You haven't put your legs down yet, what does it look like?"

Jun Xiaowu chuckled, and put his legs away obediently.

"You brought me out today just to drink here?" Jun Huailang asked.

Jun Xiaowu propped his elbows on the table, leaned closer and said with a smile, "Isn't this a farewell party for you!"

Then, he said as a matter of course: "I see you are not very happy these days, presumably you are reluctant to leave home?"

Jun Huailang was taken aback.

He didn't think he was in a bad mood these days, but when Jun Xiaowu said that, he couldn't help but think of Xue Yan again.

It is true that he is missing a thank you.When he was in the palace, he left without saying goodbye, and now he walked away so silently, he always felt that it should not be done, and he couldn't help but feel a little blocked.

He looked down at the rough tea on the table, and after a while he said softly, "No, it's just that I didn't have the chance to say goodbye to an old friend."

When Jun Xiaowu heard the words, he didn't hear anything at all, instead he raised his legs as it should, and said: "Why don't we have a chance, why don't we invite him for a drink?"

It would be easy if it was an old friend nearby, but this old friend was an old friend in the palace.

Jun Huailang smiled lightly and shook his head: "It's not easy."

Jun Xiaowu seemed to understand but didn't understand, and let out a long voice.

While talking, Xiao Er had already served rice wine and beef to the table.Jun Huailang simply changed the subject and asked, "How did you find this store?"

Jun Xiaowu's attention was immediately diverted, and he smiled: "When I went to Yumen Pass, I was reluctant to go home. I regretted it when I went out of the city. But I thought that my father would not let me practice martial arts. In a fit of anger, I searched for it on the side of the road. I went to a post house, drank a big bowl of rice wine, dropped the bowl and left."

Jun Huailang laughed out loud.

"How old were you at that time, a boy of twelve or thirteen years old, came here to drink?"

Jun Xiaowu didn't take it seriously at all, picked up a piece of beef and threw it into the mouth: "So what? I thought at the time that I would go to Yumen Pass and stay there forever. When I grow up, I will fight with my uncle and never come back again." .”

Jun Huailang was so teased by him that he leaned on the table and laughed.

"But you're still coming back, and you're showing some kindness to your father." He said with a smile.

Jun Xiaowu made a bitter face when he heard the words: "After all, the sand at the border is not good. If you stay for a long time, you still want to go home."

As he spoke, he picked up the wine bowl and touched Jun Huailang's.

Jun Huailang clinked a glass with him, raised his head and drank the rice wine.

The rice wine outside the city was completely different from the wine he drank in his daily life.He is used to drinking wine with a delicate and clear taste, but he has never drank such a hot and throat-burning wine. After drinking a cup, Jun Huailang's eyebrows involuntarily frowned.

Seeing his frown, Jun Xiaowu patted the table and laughed straight away: "Is it very strong? I only took a sip at that time, and tears came down."

The strong wine entered his throat, scalding Jun Huailang's stomach for a while, almost arousing his tears.But immediately after, there was a mellow aftertaste spreading in the mouth, causing Jun Huailang to praise: "It's a good wine."

j At this moment, Jun Xiaowu patted his arm and told him to look out.

"Brother, look over there." He said.

Jun Huailang looked out of the window, and saw a piece of white covered in silver beyond the quaint window edge.

Different from the flying eaves and pavilions seen in the palace, the outside is a flat and vast wilderness, and the sky can be seen at a glance.In the distance, there are continuous hills and peaks, the loess is covered with white snow, a piece of high and far away.

At this time, the sun was setting, and the golden sunset cast a layer of golden light on the wilderness and sky outside the window.

Jun Xiaowu smiled triumphantly: "Brother, doesn't it look good? When I left, I was sitting here. After drinking that bowl of wine, I just took a look outside and saw such a vast world. I can't bear it anymore, I just want to go out to Chang'an, and see what the places farther away are like."

Jun Huailang looked straight out of the window.

The white snow on the wilderness meets the blue sky, and a long and narrow earth-yellow commercial road spreads all the way to the north.The sky was already dark, and there were very few merchants traveling, but many people came from afar, heading for Chang'an from afar.

It is indeed a rare sight in the city.

Jun Huailang did involuntarily think of another person in his mind.

Xue Yan.

A year ago, he was also walking alone on this road, all the way back to Chang'an from Yan County in the far north, right?

With this thought, Jun Huailang felt a little absurd.

What's going on, Xue Yan Xue Yan, could it be that you have been with him for a long time, and you always think of him when you do everything?

But Jun Huailang also had to admit that Xue Yan saved his life, but he didn't have time to repay him. This kind of debt to others is what people miss the most.

At this moment, Jun Xiaowu suddenly let out a "huh".

"Why are there still officers and soldiers here?" He looked downstairs, surprised.

Jun Huailang heard the words and followed suit to look down.

Sure enough, a group of officers and soldiers rode fast horses, there could be a hundred or ten people, and quickly surrounded the posthouse.This group of officers and soldiers was obviously well-trained. All they could hear was the sound of neat horseshoes and the clash of knives and guns.

The group of traffickers and pawns at the gate were all driven into the post house like mules and horses, and none of them was allowed to come out.

Slowly following behind was a carriage, surrounded by several guarding soldiers.

The carriage was not in a hurry, it drove all the way calmly, and slowly stopped at the gate of the post house.

One of the soldiers opened the curtain and said a few words to the inside.The carriage was dim, and it was impossible to see who was sitting in it from upstairs.

Then, the soldier saluted respectfully and ordered loudly, "Search!"

The group of officers and soldiers immediately set off, guarded the doors and windows, and then went in to search.

"...It seems to be someone from the Ministry of Punishment." Jun Huailang stared at it for a while, then said.

Jun Xiaowu Nahan: "What are you searching for here? Could it be that there are fugitives?"

Jun Huailang didn't know, he just shook his head.

Jun Xiaowu leaned against the window, looking bored and lively.He suddenly remembered something, smiled and said to Jun Huailang: "Brother, have you heard? The Fifth Highness in the aunt's palace entered the court at the beginning of this year, and the one who was arranged by the emperor is the Ministry of Punishment."

Jun Huailang was taken aback for a moment: "Enter the court...go to the Ministry of Punishment?"

He didn't know anything about it.

Jun Xiaowu said: "Yes, I heard about it when I went out to play with others a few days ago. I heard that the emperor suddenly used him very much, and said that he handled the case well in the Punishment Department, so he actually found him in the Ministry of Punishment. There is a vacancy... Mother, don't say that he is only sixteen years old, don't he have two emperor brothers? Why does the emperor suddenly favor him so much..."

The second prince has never had a sacred heart, the emperor only asked him to study for two more years, Jun Huailang knew this.The fourth prince was originally outstanding among the princes, but when it was time to enter the court this year, because of an accident with his biological mother, it was only natural that he put it on hold.

When the prince entered the court, he naturally didn't get to know the affairs of the court and China at the beginning, and he learned from the officials' practice.

But even so, it is naturally clear at a glance who the emperor prefers and who he values.

Wasn't Emperor Qingping not at all afraid of the so-called evil star coming to the world?

Jun Huailang only felt a little magical.

Could it be because he was reborn and disrupted many things in his previous life, so that Xue Yan's time to enter the court and become an official has been brought forward so much?

He did remember that Xue Yanchu's first appearance in his previous life was when Jiangnan rebelled in his previous life, and when he had no generals in the court, he was sent south to quell the rebellion.

It's so much worse now...

While the two were chatting, the officers and soldiers had searched upstairs.Both of them were young masters dressed in fine clothes, and they were let go without any interrogation.

After a while, several people were escorted out of the guest room on the third floor.

The leader was a young man in commoner clothes. Although he was dressed plainly, he was full of nobility.Behind him were two young women, one of whom was older, holding two young sons by the hand.

It was a big family.

"This...how did the Ministry of Criminal Justice arrest a group of women and children?" Jun Xiaowu was surprised, stretching his neck to look.

Jun Huailang tapped the tabletop, and said, "There's nothing right or wrong."

Jun Xiaowu responded, but was still curious.

They sat far away from the stairs, and when the group went down, they couldn't see anything.

Jun Xiaowu stretched his head out of the window again.

Jun Huailang had never had such strong curiosity as him, so he drank tea on his own, waiting for those people to escort others away.But after the people were pushed down, there was still silence underneath, and there was no sound of officers and soldiers retreating.

Jun Huailang casually glanced out the window.

Then, he saw that the curtain of the carriage was lifted by the soldiers, and a footstool was placed in front of the carriage.

The person sitting in the car got out of the car slowly.

He is tall and tall, straight and tall, without a hair crown, and his long hair is tied in a golden belt.

He was wearing a thick black brocade cloak, and when he got off the car, the cloak was puffed up, looking quite elegant.

As soon as he stood still in front of the carriage, a soldier stepped forward and bowed to invite him into the building.

Jun Huailang's gaze paused, and the teacup in his hand shook slightly, a little out of the way, and landed on his hand.

The person who got on and off the carriage turned out to be Xue Yan.
