Return [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 29 Ancient Assassination Team (29)
Shi Qingyu tapped the table with his fingers. After a long time, he said, "I'll return to Beijing early tomorrow morning." Just to make sure.The current state of the palace will affect every step of the way.
Sima Liao cupped his hands and said earnestly, "The situation in Beijing is unknown, I think maybe I can let you and Fang Xu investigate first."
What Sima Liao meant was to let him be a striker first. If the situation in the capital was dangerous, Shi Qingyu could also be prevented from entering the city and being captured.While protecting the safety of Shi Qingyu and Shi Dezheng, it is hanging with Sima Liao's life.
Shi Dezheng widened his eyes and scolded, "What nonsense are you talking about? Didn't you just send yourself to death if you played tricks in the past?"
Sima Liao said calmly, "Eighth Princess, don't worry, the capital probably hasn't fallen into the hands of others yet."
"You!" Shi Dezheng pointed at Sima Liao angrily.
Sima Liao looked at her quietly, letting her scold him until he was bloody.
Shi Qingyu smiled and said, "Brother Sima said so, so let's do it. However, if something happens, Brother Sima has to retreat first, and you can't fight head-on." He turned his head and said to the other party, "Fang Xu ,I order you now to protect Brother Sima!"
Fang Xu straightened his waist and replied, "Yes, my lord."
"Sixth brother?!" Shi Dezheng looked at Shi Qingyu who gave the order in disbelief.
Shi Qingyu looked at her with a sullen face, "Bamei, you should be clear, now is not the time for child's play, we can't stay here forever, someone has to take a step forward, no one can tell the danger , we can only avoid it as much as possible.”
"He wants to die by himself, Brother Six, why do you want him to go? He is stupid but you don't persuade him? Brother Six, I don't understand the truth of what you said. I only know that life is more important than anything else!"
Shi Dezheng's eyes were red with anger, and she actually didn't know why she was so angry, especially when she looked at Sima Liao who was standing quietly beside her, her anger kept rising and there was no tendency to fall at all.She stamped her foot, turned around and rushed out of the hall to her room.
Sima Liao didn't stop her either, he just watched her disappearing figure with a calm and serious expression.
Shi Qingyu said softly, "Brother Sima, I'll leave Dezheng to you. Qin Ming, I'm tired, please carry me back to my room."
Qin Zhao lowered his head, and saw Shi Qingyu's tired face, his face was a little pale, and he was a little listless.It has been three days, but Shi Qingyu's illness has not recovered over and over again. Seeing him like this, Qin Zhao suddenly felt worried.
Shi Qingyu stretched out her hands to wrap around Qin Zhao's neck, buried her head in the hollow of his shoulder, and rubbed it lightly.He turned his head and looked at Qin Zhao's side face, and a certain idea in his heart slowly took shape.Shi Qingyu stretched out his hand to touch Qin Zhao's hair, but in the end he stopped and slowly withdrew his hand.
Dusk is fading away, and the quiet night has arrived.
When Qin Zhao went out to fetch water, Shi Qingyu wrote a line of writing on a piece of paper with a brush in his hand. After writing, he tore off the line of writing, rolled it into a roll of paper and put it in a In a bamboo tube the size of a little finger.Then he walked to the window, picked up a flute and played a melodious tune. After the tune stopped, a snow-white eagle flew down from the night sky and landed firmly on the window lattice.
Shi Qingyu carried the bamboo tube on Flying Eagle's lap, and then patted its head, only to see that ferocious Flying Eagle rubbed against Shi Qingyu's hand, turned around and returned to the thick night.
And Qin Zhao, who was at the door, silently listened to his music, and waited until there was no more sound in the room before he knocked on the door and walked in. His face was calm, and no one could see any emotion.
This night was a sleepless night for the people in the small building. They had different thoughts and couldn't sleep for a long time.
The next day, Qin Zhao and others packed their luggage and left the temporary building. The five of them set off in the direction of the capital.Shi Dezheng was still angry, she didn't want to face Sima Liao, so she also got into the carriage.But when facing Shi Qingyu, he also had an "I'm very unhappy" look on his face, and he shrank in a corner, ignoring anyone.
Qin Zhao took out the water bag and handed it to Shi Qingyu. Shi Qingyu took a sip, looked at Shi Dezheng and shook his head.
It took about ten days, and they rushed back to the outskirts of the capital.Because the situation in the capital was unknown, according to the original plan, Sima Liao would bring Fang Xu into the city gate the next day, while Qin Zhao and the others stayed at the post station in the suburbs, waiting for news from Sima Liao.
Back near the capital, they all made disguises.The five of them changed their usual fine clothes and wore simple coarse linen clothes.Shi Qingyu and Shi Dezheng also specially wore a veil, while Sima Liao and Qin Zhao put some mustaches and other symbols on their faces.
They asked for a few rooms at the inn, and during dinner, they ate quietly in the lobby while carefully paying attention to the surrounding situation and listening to the conversations of the neighbors next to them.
It seems that the news that the third prince and the king of the small county have defected to a foreign country has not yet spread to the common people. If this is the case, the situation in the capital should still be under the control of Emperor Zhu Song.
Shi Dezheng listened to the people next to him talking about the interesting things in life in the past two days, and his tense expression finally relaxed.She noticed the gazes looking at her, snorted twice arrogantly, lowered her head with red ears, and put several dishes into her mouth.
Seeing this, Sima Liao's eyes obviously slipped a few smiles.
On the second day, Sima Liao entered the capital as soon as the city gate was opened. Although it looked almost the same as usual, Sima Liao still found some subtleties.When entering the city, the intensity of the inspection seemed to intensify, and the number of soldiers guarding the city gate was twice as high as usual.Everyone who wanted to enter the city had to have an ultimatum, and the bamboo baskets on their backs or the food on the cart had to go through a lot of screening, and even the people in the carriage had to get down and compare their identities one by one.
Sima Liao and Fang Xu jumped off their horses, holding the reins and following the queue of people.Fang Xu caught a scholar wearing a long gown, and asked curiously, "What happened? Why are you searching so strictly?"
The scholar looked at Fang Xu for a while, probably because he saw that he was handsome, with good facial features, and he didn't look like a bad guy, so he explained, "What else can I do? I heard that an assassin entered the palace and stabbed the prince. , although the assassin was killed, but for the sake of safety to prevent any accomplices, we ordered a thorough investigation."
"How is the prince?" Fang Xu asked with an extremely surprised expression.
"It seems that the injury was quite serious, and he is recuperating in the palace." The scholar said casually.
After Fang Xu thanked him, he walked back to Sima Liao's side. Sima Liao completely listened to Fang Xu's conversation with the scholar.Stabbing the prince, the matter of the prince's self-cultivation should be deliberately spread by the palace to confuse the public.Sima Liao tightened his grip on the reins, his brain spinning rapidly.
Sima Liao and Fang Xu easily passed the interrogation by the guards, and entered the capital leading the horses.The streets of the capital were bustling with people, and these people had no idea of the raging battles outside the customs at this time.
Sima Liao didn't go back to Sima Mansion immediately, but he and Fang Xu went to the nearest inn in Sima Mansion and asked for two rooms.Sima Liao entered the room, put down his luggage, walked to the window, and carefully looked at the situation outside Sima's mansion.There were several more guards outside the door, and everyone watched the people coming and going with a serious face, as if if there was anything wrong, they would immediately draw their swords and fight with their lives.
Sima Liao's expression became serious. His family was not like this before. It must have been influenced by the palace. Maybe their family has some understanding of foreign affairs.
Fang Xu knocked on the door twice and walked in. After entering, he carefully inspected the left and right sides before closing the door.He walked up to Sima Liao and whispered, "My lord, do we need to give the prince a message, the current capital is not in danger for the time being."
Sima Liao shook his head, "Wait a minute, I want to go back to Sima's Mansion tonight, the family should know what happened recently, and let the Sixth Prince enter Beijing after it is really safe."
Fang Xu nodded in response.
At night, there are fewer people on the street, and the wind blowing makes the windows rattle.Sima Liao's room was always lit, but when he looked carefully, he found that there was no one in the room.
Fang Xu led Sima Liao carefully avoiding the guards inside and outside the Sima Mansion, like a bat in the dark, and quietly entered Sima Liao's parents' courtyard in the blink of an eye.At this time, there were several servants and maids walking around in the courtyard, and two guards were guarding the door, while the room of Sima Liao's parents was lit with candles.
Sima Liao patted Fang Xu and asked Fang Xu to let him go.A maid was startled when she saw the sudden appearance of a figure, and when she was about to scream, Sima Liao, who reacted extremely quickly, covered her mouth.It was only when the maid saw the figure walking out of the shadow that she calmed down a little.
Sima Liao made a "shh" gesture to her, and the maid hurriedly nodded to express her understanding, and then Sima Liao let go of her hand covering her mouth.
The maid whispered, "Master, why didn't you say anything when you came back, how could..."
"Put these words aside for now, are Master and Madam in the room?" Sima Liao asked softly.
The maid quickly replied, "Yes, yes."
Sima Liao pulled her over and said, "Go and report that I'm back, don't let other people know, remember?"
Seeing his serious expression, the maid nodded solemnly, and walked quickly to the door of Sima Liao's parents' room.She went in for a while, and then came out again.After coming out this time, the maid dismissed the surrounding guards and servants, and then walked to Sima Liao's side.
"Master, the master asked me to take you in."
Sima Liao exhaled, "Let's go."
Sima Liao cupped his hands and said earnestly, "The situation in Beijing is unknown, I think maybe I can let you and Fang Xu investigate first."
What Sima Liao meant was to let him be a striker first. If the situation in the capital was dangerous, Shi Qingyu could also be prevented from entering the city and being captured.While protecting the safety of Shi Qingyu and Shi Dezheng, it is hanging with Sima Liao's life.
