Chapter 103: Explanation of being blocked in front of the door)
The childhood time is always so forth...
"Hey... you are so strange. Why are you stunned on the horse's back?
Humph! You fell down and got injured, but can you take responsibility for this morning delaying my girl’s business?"
Meng Zhize was stunned and suddenly rushed out of the tea shop beside him, and scolded him in a scattered manner.
Meng Zhize was in a daze and suddenly heard the voice, and he immediately came to his senses. Seeing that he was being scolded by a woman, he was stunned for a moment before he was dismounted in a hurry. His eyes turned and he looked at the woman with awkward smile and said, "Miss, I'm here to have tea."
"Tea drinker?"
The woman stared at Meng Zhize, and a hint of doubt suddenly appeared between her cheeks.
Meng Zhize nodded to the woman, then tied the horse to the horse stake next to the tea shop, looked at the woman and said, "Boss, I'll make a pot of tea, the good tea from your shop."
The woman blinked in surprise, lowered her head and said to herself, "Are you really here to have tea?"
The woman suddenly looked up and stared at Meng Zhize, and said softly to Meng Zhize with a smile: "Come in here, there are all kinds of tea drinks in our store, which can be said to be a complete variety.
Uh...we have all kinds of cauliflower, black tea, green tea, Xiangshan Maojian, Cangshan Longjing..."
The woman walked in front to guide the way and actually introduced more than a dozen tea dishes to Meng Zhize in one breath.
Meng Zhize listened silently, following the woman, and was about to step into the tea shop. He suddenly looked up and looked at the plaque above the door frame. A few familiar ink words immediately came into his eyes. He silently whispered in his mouth: "Chen Ji Tea Shop, isn't this Chen Bing's tea shop?"
The woman who was originally moving forward suddenly heard the words from Meng Zhize's soft voice. She suddenly stopped her pace and turned around and looked at Meng Zhize.
...
At the north end of Qingluan Street, Yue Ye and Mu Sifan stood in front of Xuanwu Gate, and the four imperial guards suddenly blocked their way forward.
The imperial guard standing on the far left made a forbidden sign with Mu Sifan towards Yueye, and then said loudly: "The Xuanwu Pass, the idle people, etc., will all give in."
Yue Ye was about to take a step forward, and the four imperial guards actually pulled out their swords at the same time vigilantly. The imperial guards who were talking just now shouted loudly: "What are you doing? If you don't retreat, don't blame us for driving away by force."
When Yueye saw the four imperial guards suddenly getting angry, he was shocked and hurriedly clasped his fists and explained, "Brothers, we are coming to the palace to meet the king."
"Meet the monarch?" The spoken imperial guard looked up and down at Yue Ye and Mu Sifan, his face full of doubt.
Yue Ye nodded and hurriedly took out Meng Zhize's handwritten letter from his arms, let the imperial guards take a look at the envelope, Meng Zhize's handwritten signature, and said: "This elder brother, my brother and sister are recommended by Meng Zhize, the guard general of the northwest border, to meet the king. This is General Meng's handwritten letter."
The Imperial Guard looked carefully at the handwriting on the envelope, stunned for a moment, suddenly shook his head and said, "Without a seal, it is really hard to tell the truth from the handwriting alone."
At this time, another imperial guard suddenly said, "Brother, a few days ago, it was rumored that the Dahu Empire slaughtered the northwest border, and none of the soldiers of the Meng family army were spared. We all admire General Meng's talent and achievements. How could the thieves secretly use his name and fool the court?"
The imperial guard who had spoken before suddenly felt it was reasonable when he heard this, nodded, then faced Yueye and shouted sternly: "You dare to tease me if you are unlucky? If you don't leave, don't blame us for being strong."
Yue Ye felt anxious and hurriedly defended: "This is indeed a letter written by General Meng. As for the seal, I think General Meng lost it accidentally when he broke through the northwest border, so..."
"Don't say more. If you don't leave, don't blame me for being ruthless under the knife." The guard who spoke before suddenly showed a fierce look on his face. He pulled out his saber and put it on Yue Ye's neck.
Mu Sifan was shocked by the sudden scene in front of her. She hurriedly reminded Yue Ye: "Brother Ye, sword. Hurry up and take out the sword of the General of the Protecting Country."
Yue Ye was reminded by Mu Sifan and hurriedly wanted to get the Meng Hun sword on her waist.
Seeing this, the other three imperial guards hurriedly pulled out their saber and pressed the tip of the knife to three vital points around Yueye.
As long as there is something wrong with Yueye, any of these four sabers can easily kill him with just a little force.
Yue Ye felt nervous. He carefully took off his sword from his waist, held the sword with both hands, and respectfully handed it to the imperial guards who had spoken before, saying, "This is the sword of the former General of the National Protection, and was personally given by the former King. Now, my brother and sister brought this sword to meet the king, which was entrusted by the former General of the National Protection."
The Imperial Guard took back his sword and immediately took the sword in Yueye's hand with both hands. He stared at the sword, looked at it carefully for a moment, and suddenly glanced at the other three Imperial Guards and said, "Who do you know this sword?"
The guard on the far right suddenly approached a few steps to the left. He stared at the sword in the hand of the guard on the left and said, "I know, although I followed the General of the Guardian in a hurry for several months and failed to see the General of the Guardian with my own eyes, I also heard the brothers in the military camp often explain some unique characteristics of this sword."
"Oh? Take a closer look. Is this sword real or fake?" After saying this, the imperial guard on the left handed the sword to the imperial guard on the right.
The imperial guard on the right took the sword and then looked carefully.
From the tip of the sword to the hilt, every detail was seen by the imperial guard on the right.
A moment later, the guard on the right was suddenly shocked. He nodded heavily to the guard on the left, and then replied seriously: "Brother, this sword is indeed the sword of the former General of the National Protection, and it is confirmed."
"Oh?" The imperial guard on the left was shocked when he heard this, and then turned his gaze to Yue Ye again and said, "Are you really General Meng introduced to meet the king?"
Yue Ye nodded and said, "Yes, sir."
"Uh... since that's the case, I hope you two will forgive me more. We are also ordered to act. After all, behind Xuanwu Gate is the location of the palace gate. If we are negligent, this person's head will be unsecured, and it will harm our family if we don't do it well."
The imperial guard on the left returned the sword to Yueye, and then bowed to Yueye with his fists.
After all, those who are qualified to enter and exit the palace at will are those who cannot offend them, such as the small imperial guards. However, not to mention how much influence the former General of the National Guard had in the State of Cyan, they would not dare to neglect even if they borrowed ten thousand courages from their 10,000 courage.
Yue Ye took the sword, tied the sword back to its original place, and then clasped his fists at the four imperial guards one by one, saying, "You guys should check it carefully. As for the word "forgive sins", it is really impossible to say."
"Please, please."
The four imperial guards immediately separated to the sides and quickly gave way to the middle.
