[Comprehensive] The Birth of the Dramatist

Chapter 43 Dugu Tianxia: 0 Distance from the General

"Gao Changgong, where is the woman who was drinking with you just now?"

"What woman? It's obvious that there is only this king alone. Where did this woman come from?"

"Oh? But the store clearly saw that you and the woman came in here. This king suspects that the woman is a spy sent by the enemy country. Today, I want to arrest her and bring her back for interrogation. You should hand her over soon."

"A spy from the enemy country?" Gao Changgong sneered, "I wonder if the King of Nanyang has any evidence? I'm afraid it's inappropriate for you to accuse you randomly like this?"

"What's wrong?" King Nanyang continued to be aggressive, "This king is the younger brother of the current emperor. If this king says she is a spy, then she is a spy. If you defend her like this, are you on the same team as her?"

"My lord, I think you are drunk." Gao Changgong lowered his voice, but revealed a bit of murderous arrogance.

"The current sage has long suspected that you have evil intentions. If you don't hand over that person today, this king will definitely sue you for treason in front of the sage. When the time comes, you can bring the head to see him."

Nanyang Wang Gaochuo, Gao Wei's younger brother, has no other hobbies. He likes keeping Persian dogs the most. He releases dogs to eat people every day. He is even more vicious than Gao Wei.

Xiao Nuo paid attention to the movement below, and was thinking about how to settle this matter, obviously this Gao Chuo came for her, if Gao Changgong got involved because of this, he would really feel a little sorry.

Gao Changgong narrowed his eyes slightly, and there was a faint chill in his eyes, "Your Majesty really wants to do this?"

Shocked by his expression, Gao Chuo swallowed his saliva, glanced around at his subordinates who were watching with gusto, and couldn't help straightening his back, "That's right, this king just wants to..."

Before he finished speaking, he felt a heavy blow to his abdomen, and the painful five internal organs turned over, and he passed out as soon as he rolled his eyes.

The people around immediately gathered around, "My lord!"

Gao Changgong let go of his clenched fists, with an indifferent expression, "The King of Nanyang is too strong to drink, and please send him back to the palace, so that he can take care of him."

Everyone knew that he was a well-known living king, except Nanyang King, who would dare to be so presumptuous in front of him, and immediately carried Nanyang King down the stairs in a hurry.

Xiao Nuo shrunk down from the window, and said worriedly: "General, is this all right? What if he goes to sue the Imperial Court?"

Gao Changgong didn't care, "If the current emperor is really a wise king, he shouldn't allow such a person to act recklessly."

"But the emperor is afraid that there will be a gap in your heart..."

Gao Changgong shook his head, "Do you think there is still little gap between me and him? It is not a matter of a day or two for him to want my life. Don't worry, with his current ability, he dare not touch me. "

"What about after that? If that day really comes, what will happen to the general?"

"Are you worried about me?" Gao Changgong smiled slightly, "Although I haven't reached the state of 'the king wants the minister to die, the minister has to die', but if I want to be betrayed by Qi because of this, I can't do it, as long as the people of Qi If you still need me, I can't sit idly by."

"But I hope the general can live a long life."

"I know."

Xiao Nuo smiled, "It's not just me, I think many people think this way, madam, and Zhu Hai and the others."

Gao Changgong also smiled, "I know, thank you. For you, I will cherish this life."

After returning, it was already late at night, and Mrs. Zheng was still waiting in the hall, propping her head up and about to fall asleep.

Xiao Nuo pointed to his yard, Gao Changgong nodded.

About a hundred steps away, Xiao Nuo turned his head, looked across the corridor, Gao Changgong embraced Mrs Zheng and whispered something, Mrs Zheng leaned in his arms like a bird nestled against a big tree.

Xiao Nuo couldn't help sighing: What a pair of Bi people.

On the second day, Gao Changgong gave Xiao Nuo the address where Yan Ji was under house arrest.

"Do you need me to arrange it?"

"Thank you, but it's better not to alarm anyone. I can go alone."

"Okay, remember to let me know if you need it."

Gao Changgong didn't force it any more, because he knew Xiao Nuo's ability, and he also knew that they were not in a superior-subordinate relationship. He could suggest to her, but he could not interfere with any decision she made.

The place where Yan Ji lived was a nunnery, located in the deep mountains, surrounded by cliffs, only a cable bridge leading to the outside, Xiao Nuo was worried that the eyeliner was buried all around, so he chose to climb from a convenient cliff at night go up.

There was silence in the nunnery.

Yan Ji is praying to the Buddha by candlelight. She has lived and ate with the nuns in my village for decades. She is no longer the famous dancer back then. Now she is quiet and silent, just like a flower polished by the years. Puyu, even though she was wearing a tattered Taoist uniform and shaved off her hair, the light in her eyes was still burning persistently.

"Madame Yan Ji..."

Faced with the sudden intruder, Yan Ji didn't panic, she just looked at Xiao Nuo with soft and loving eyes, maybe her eyes were too gentle, Xiao Nuo felt for the first time that she had done something very rude thing.

"Son, why are you here?"

Xiao Nuo tidied up his clothes and picked up several dead grasses from his hair, he couldn't help but blushed, "I'm Xiao Nuo, I was entrusted to come and see you."

Yan Ji got up and poured a cup of tea to Xiao Nuo, "Come from afar, let's sit down and drink a glass of water first, we grow the tea leaves ourselves, I don't know if you are used to drinking them."

Xiao Nuo quickly waved his hands, "I'm not picky about food."

The teacup is a very ordinary plain embryo. Although the tea is cold, it still has a faint fragrance. Xiao Nuo drank two cups in one go.

"Madam, prepare yourself, I will take you back to Beizhou in a few days."

"Thank you." Yan Ji neither showed happiness nor excitement, she was as calm as a bowl of water.

"Ma'am, don't you...don't want to go back at all?"

"Of course I want to." Yan Ji said: "It's just that the expectations now are not as big as before. Ah Hu has already married, he has a wife and a child, and his life in Beizhou is very stable. It's not too bad, it would be good if I can help him when I go back, but what I'm worried about is that once some things start, they will be beyond my control."

"Maybe this is just what you think. He is now on the brink of destruction. If you can go back, there may be a chance of survival."

He poisoned his original partner to death, beat and killed his son, and would do anything for Dugu Banruo, no wonder he wanted to be born alone.

Yan Ji finally had some reaction, "But what did he do?"

Xiao Nuo did not say clearly, "You will know when you go back."

After not sitting for a long time, Xiao Nuo got up to leave, and only when he returned to Ye City did he receive the news that Yu Wenjue from the Northern Zhou Dynasty had given Yu Wenyu the seat of meditation, Dugu Prajna's dream of being a queen really came true.

Mrs. Zheng changed her clothes and was about to go out, when she met Xiao Nuo coming back from outside, she asked: "Miss Xiao, is it too early?"

Xiao Nuo nodded, "It's already been used outside, madam is going to burn incense?"

"It's to restore the peace promised to my husband earlier."

Zheng's clothes today are very grand, and there are yellow flowers on her originally beautiful face, her eyebrows are thin and long, and her red lips are light, making her look very delicate and charming.

Xiao Nuo inadvertently heard the servant girl mention that the Zheng family was not from a famous family, and even her surname was rewarded by the queen mother. Gao Changgong used her military achievements to ask the queen mother to marry her. She was the only one in the backyard before, and now Gao Changgong brought Xiao Nuo with him. When I came back, although I always treated each other like friends, women are delicate in their thoughts, otherwise, why bother to pay attention to dressing up.

To this, Xiao Nuo just responded with a tolerant smile, Zheng dressed up because she cared about her husband-in-law, and there was a problem if she didn't dress up.

"Miss Xiao has been busy these days, and I rarely see people. I have always wanted to make some clothes for you, but I was afraid that the colors and styles would not suit your eyes. There is a Jinxiu workshop in the east of the city. The clothes are made of Very good, but it's a bit late to open the door, how about Miss Xiao and I go to the temple first, and I can go and have a look when I come back later, I wonder what Miss Xiao would like?"

Xiao Nuo thought that it would be fine to stay in the house anyway, so he just went to visit historical sites and places of interest.

After Gao Wei succeeded to the throne, he was immersed in the extravagant life of the harem all day long. In order to please him, the people below looked for beautiful women for him and expanded the palace so that he could enjoy himself. In [-], there were several times more Buddhist temples in Yecheng than when his father was in power before, and among them, the most popular temples were the royal temples.

Along the way, from time to time, you can see beggars robbing stray dogs for food on the side of the road, and ordinary citizens are also living a life of limited means. However, every Buddha in the temple has been cast into a golden body, and every brick is from a distant place. The ones brought from Yunnan, not to mention the exotic flowers and plants in the temple, are all extremely precious. Looking at the monks, there is no one who is full of greasy food, and their living standards are no worse than those of the aristocratic families.

Xiao Nuo didn't have the energy to take responsibility for the current rulers, but he missed the 21st century very much. No matter what, it was indeed a great achievement to feed and clothe hundreds of millions of people.

Mrs. Zheng lit the incense and added more incense money, while Xiao Nuo stood quietly by the side all the time, with a solemn expression, and the noble daughters of the families who came in and out would glance at her from time to time.

"Miss Xiao, do you want to make a wish?"

Xiao Nuo looked up at the big golden Buddha, "I beg him, is it really useful?"

"How do you know if you don't try?"

Xiao Nuo nodded, but when she walked in front of the Buddha, she was in trouble again, what did she ask for?She wants too much.

Forget it, just ask Gao Changgong to be safe, no matter what, there is no harm in trying.

Mrs. Zheng thought about making clothes for Xiao Nuo, so she didn't stay any longer, and took Xiao Nuo back to the city by car.

Just as the carriage was about to reach the gate of the city, a dog barked suddenly from behind. The horse became frightened and frantic, and the carriage was also affected.

Xiao Nuo grabbed Zheng Shi, and asked in a low voice: "What's going on?"

While comforting the horses, the coachman replied, "It's the King of Nanyang who came back from hunting, Ma'am, you guys hide inside and don't come out! The King of Nanyang likes to let dogs bite people!"

Zheng's complexion turned pale, Xiao Nuo patted the back of her hand, signaling her not to worry.

The coachman drove the carriage to the side of the road, and not long after, he heard a team rushing over.

A voice said: "Catch her here!"

Xiao Nuo looked out through the gap in the curtain, King Nanyang was riding on a horse, and several attendants were escorting a woman with a child in front of him.

A dozen tall and mighty Persian dogs were circling viciously around the woman. The woman was frightened and frightened, but had nowhere to dodge, so she had to hug the frightened crying baby tightly.

"What are you running for?"

"..."

The king of Nanyang swung his horse whip, and with one whip, the woman was knocked down. The child fell to the ground, and the woman immediately rushed to protect the child.

This move completely angered King Nanyang, and he said viciously: "Since you love your son so much, I will let you watch him die in front of you."

The attendants on the left and right stepped forward and abruptly snatched the child from the woman's arms. A group of Persian dogs immediately surrounded it, staring at the baby in the attendant's hands, like a group of flies staring at a piece of fat.

The woman cried hysterically, "My lord, please, please don't kill my child! My child, my child..."

The King of Nanyang played with the whip, and said lightly: "Now I know how to beg me. It's too late. It happens that my babies are hungry, and it's time to eat."

The entourage immediately threw the child out, and the vicious dogs rushed up after them.

The woman screamed and passed out.

The civilians who were watching couldn't bear to look any longer, and turned their heads away one after another.

The author has something to say: Gao Chuo instructed the vicious dog to eat people. This is a historical fact, so he must die!
