Chapter 296 The King's Alliance
Mr. Zhongyue heard that a gentleman saw the assassin coming out of Lord Xinling's room around the time of the rooster's crow. He was overjoyed and asked quickly: "Please tell me what happened!"
The famous guest said: "I got up and went to the bottom of the steps. I saw that the emperor also came out. I didn't know that he was an assassin at the time. I meant that the emperor was staying there. So I went to the back of the room. I didn't want to be there at the bottom of the steps."
, then go to a secluded place to solve it."
Mr. Zhongyue asked: "What is its shape? Is it quite similar to your Majesty?"
The guest said: "It's dark and dim at night, and it's hard to distinguish his shape. The only thing I can see is his body shape..." The guest simply stood up and imitated the way the man walked.
Mr. Zhongyue asked: "When will he return?"
The famous guest said: "I returned home after drinking water without paying any attention to it."
Mr. Zhongyue said: "Can you hear his voice later?"
The doorman hesitated and said: "His voice?"
Mr. Zhongyue reminded: "It's like falling tiles."
The famous retainer said: "It is true. I was doubtful at the time, but there was no strong wind, but the tiles were falling. The assassins would definitely come out over the wall."
Mr. Zhongyue said, "That's what you said." He motioned for him to sit down. Then he asked, "Your Majesty did not stay in the courtyard yesterday. Do you know, Sir?"
All the disciples said: "I don't know."
Mr. Zhongyue said: "I found out that someone wanted to assassinate the emperor, so I changed his residence. Now that you know it, gentlemen, please don't say anything else!"
All the guests said: "Here!"
Mr. Zhongyue asked: "Where is outside the wall?"
All the guests looked puzzled, and one of them replied: "I entered the carriage house myself. I haven't gone out yet, so I don't know where I am."
Mr. Zhongyue led all the guests to the back of the wing and asked: "Can any gentleman come out of the wall here?"
When everyone saw that the wall was only as high as one person, he could almost touch the top with his hand. Several diners said: "What's so difficult!"
Mr. Zhongyue said: "I would like to cross the wall and explore what is going on."
The doorman gave a quick run and climbed onto the wall in a few steps. He turned around and said, "There are no homes outside the wall. It's all weeds."
Mr. Zhongyue said: "Can you see where someone stepped on it?"
The famous guest said: "It's vague."
Mr. Zhongyue said: "I wish you, sir, to stay and watch for a long time, and I will be here soon." He hurried out and ran out. Mr. Xinling wanted to follow him, but Zhang He stopped him and said, "Mr. Zhongyue, let's explore its traces. Your Excellency."
Don't follow." But he handed the sword to Lord Xinling, and as soon as he was angry, he ran up the wall. Half a month later, he saw Mr. Zhongyue running over panting, and Zhang Yue also squatted on the wall, laughing and cursing: "You
If you are just greedy for cheap, we will suffer!"
Zhang Zou deliberately teased him: "Why are you not going up?"
Mr. Zhongyue said: "How can I be with a cat? Come and watch with me."
Zhang Yu smiled and jumped off the wall. When he was young, the doormen on the wall greeted: "Anyone who can climb up can come!" He also jumped off the wall. In a moment, three doormen climbed over the wall one after another, including Mr. Cao.
It was also turned out. Lord Xinling thought that he didn't have the ability, so he could only sigh secretly. He stepped forward and touched it, and found that the wall was made of rammed earth. Although there was a small slope, it was really difficult to accommodate it. He said to the doorman behind him
Asked: "Why did you, sir, jump out in one go?"
A guest said: "This grass is quite abundant in the wild. It can pass through the wall and the courtyard without leaving a trace. It just requires diligent practice."
Later, several disciples told them how to practice, and even various details and precautions. In the end, they all said in shame, "It's hard to hold your ears!"
On a whim, Lord Xinling had nothing to do, so he started practicing Qinggong in the courtyard according to the instructions of the gentlemen... until the gentlemen who were investigating the case returned.
Seeing Lord Xinling practicing Qinggong, these gentlemen also became interested, and each showed off their skills to Lord Xinling. Mr. Zhongyue couldn't stand it, so he interrupted: "It's late, and the document has yet to be copied by Sir.
I don't dare to disturb you!" The gentlemen put aside their warrior appearances and returned to being civil servants one by one. Mr. Xinling, Zhang Yue, Mr. Zhongyue and Mr. Cao sat down in front of the main room again to discuss the case together.
Those copycats who were copying were naturally not thinking about the documents, and quietly asked for gossip from those who were reading out the documents.
Lord Xinling couldn't wait to ask: "How are you waiting for me, sir?"
Mr. Zhongyue said: "After the guest came out of the wall, he walked along a ditch. I didn't know where he was. He walked very closely. I think he arrived along the ditch. He landed on the shore and put on his shoes. No trace of wetness was visible when he returned.
Then he took off his shoes, entered the ditch and escaped. He searched again and again, but found nothing left behind. This shows that he was thinking carefully."
Lord Xinling said: "When Mr. Zhang goes out, he returns his sword first. Is it inconvenient to carry the sword over the wall?"
Zhang He admired Lord Xinling's meticulous thinking and explained: "It is inconvenient to cross the wall with a sword. But carrying the sword behind you can also do it."
Mr. Zhong Yue concluded: "Brother Zeng came secretly and left secretly. He left his sword on the table and came alone. He must not be an assassin."
When Lord Xinling heard this, he was overjoyed. He hurriedly avoided the table and worshiped: "Hearing what Mr. Xinling said is like hearing spring thunder in winter, and all worries are gone."
But Mr. Zhongyue still said seriously: "Although Ye Lai is not an assassin, a person who knows his fate will not stand under a rock wall. When Brother Zeng arrived, he left his sword to warn him of danger, and he jumped over the wall to warn him of the situation. The car was behind the wheel.
, is very desolate and few people live in it; but it is separated by a wall, and the guards are sparse, so it is easy to cross the wall. Your Majesty lives close to the wall, and there are assassins coming, which makes it difficult to control. May your superiors and ministers be loyal and have few talents.
Being short-sighted, he accepts the advice of his subordinates, temporarily abandons his comfort, and moves to a different place to avoid danger."
Lord Xinling said: "It is not that I want to stand alone in danger, but that I fall into injustice. Brother Zeng came at night, and we were alone and lost him. I think of him sadly. I would like to stay here and look forward to seeing you again."
Mr. Zhongyue said: "Brother Zeng has given a warning and returned the sword. He has no choice but to sneak in and out, and he will never come back again. Even if you stay here and can't do anything, you will be in trouble. You have to leave the sword despite Brother Zeng's warning."
Heart!"
Lord Xinling put his hand on the sword, feeling sad and said to himself: "How can I meet Brother Zeng again!"
For two consecutive nights, Mr. Xinling was randomly arranged to live in a room with the accompanying warriors. However, nothing unexpected happened. Then after the sound of horse hooves, Mr. Zhongyue hurried to the car.
Go, report to Lord Ling: "Daliang sent envoys to summon you to return to the country, and form an alliance with Qin on behalf of the king!"
Lord Xinling was both surprised and happy. The peace treaty he had been longing for finally came, so he was naturally happy; but he was also frightened to have to make an alliance with Qin on behalf of the king. But he did not expect that such an important task would fall to him like this.
On oneself.
After hurriedly entering the city, two envoys from Daliang showed Lord Xinling the letter of the Wang family and the imperial edict. Opening the bamboo slips, the content on it was simple and clear: "I ordered Lord Xinling of Wei to be Wuji, to pay the official Jin Bi with the army, and to return home."
Daliang, to be diligent in the king's affairs."
Jin Bi arrived shortly afterwards, and after receiving the king's order, he and Lord Xinling hosted a banquet to entertain the envoys of Daliang. After the banquet, the two envoys of Daliang and the two envoys of Lord Xinling left Huayang City and returned to Daliang to fulfill the king's orders.
Lord Xinling handed over the command of the army to Dr. Jin Bi and set off to return to the country two days later. After the envoy entered the Great Wall, he handed over the festival talisman and conveyed Lord Xinling's instructions to take all the carriages of Prince Wei's mansion stored in Putian.
Get ready, the guests of Lord Xinling will go to Pu Tian to pick them up the next day. After the king's envoy exchanged the Wang family's festival talisman for the horse, the four of them drove straight to the center, then changed the horse and rushed to Daliang. After a continuous gallop, the envoy arrived at noon time
Enter the beam.
When they arrived at Daliang Gate, the two king's envoys handed over their mission and explained that Lord Xinling would move his army to the official Jinbi two days later and set off to return home. In case the king might ask questions, he ordered Zhang He and other two disciples to return home first and wait for his orders. The doctor who received him didn't seem to know Zhang Jue. He didn't know who he was, so he didn't take it seriously. He filled out the documents according to the law and said to the two retainers: "The court has retired, and the two princes are returning to the mansion. But I have the king's order, and I will come to ask for advice." !" The two retainers came out and said goodbye to the king's envoy outside the Daliang Gate. The two retainers then headed south to Mr. Wei's mansion.
Although it is the palace area, there are occasional pedestrians on the road. Soldiers patrol from time to time, but the inspections are not strict. It seems that martial law has been lifted. Turning around the palace wall to the east, the soldiers guarding here came forward to check. The two showed The military soldiers naturally let the talisman of Wei Gongzi's house pass. When they arrived in front of Wei Gongzi's house, the two went up the steps and knocked on the door. A doorman opened the small door and was immediately startled and said: "Mr. Zhang!"
Zhang Ye gestured not to disturb others. The doorman connected the two of them, invited them into the guest room, and then rushed into the house to see the elder. Although he did not dare to speak loudly, he still said in a trembling voice: "Mr. Zhang from Huayang City is here!"
When the family elder heard that Mr. Zhang was back, he naturally knew who it was, and hurriedly called a few retainers to go to the guest room to greet him. When several retainers entered the guest room, they were surprised to see Lord Xinling standing in the room, with Zhang Yu standing beside him. When you saw the retainers coming in, you bowed deeply and said, "Well, the Yong family is well!"
All the retainers were so excited that their eyes filled with tears, and they all fell down and said, "Well, Your Majesty!" After getting up, the family elder scolded the doorman and said, "You bitch, why don't you repay your Majesty!"
Lord Xinling quickly tried to persuade him: "When I entered the house alone, I dressed up as an old man. Naturally, children would not recognize it. Don't blame the elders! Only the elders here know about the fact that I entered the house alone and cannot be spread outside. It concerns the military and the country, so be careful!"
All the retainers responded: "Here!"
Surrounded by a group of retainers, Lord Xinling and Zhang Yuan walked through the courtyard and went to the lobby. The elder ordered the soup to be cooked and the wine served. When the young man was young, the wine and fruits were served. The retainers served the wine and fruits and asked enthusiastic questions about the military officers. Lord Xinling told the story one by one, and all the retainers were amazed.
When Tang Cheng was young, the retainers sent the two of them into the bathroom, where they stripped naked. A feeling of surviving a disaster and sharing life and death arose spontaneously.
The water in the urn was boiled with soap locust, and the temperature was adjusted just right. The two of them helped each other, scooping water for each other with a ladle to rinse. They washed their hair first, and then took a bath. The dirt from the past month was washed away, and Mr. Xinling was almost there. The feeling of being human in two lifetimes.
After putting on their clothes, the two returned to the hall. Dinner was ready. Surrounded by the retainers, the two entered the Nuan Pavilion for dinner. Two tables were lined up on the left and right, and the retainers placed various colorful items on the tables like a flowing stream. Food. Zhang Yue felt very uneasy and complained repeatedly. The old man said: "The day before yesterday, Mr. Zhang passed by the house and was not allowed to eat. Today, I am just asking for forgiveness. I hope you will not blame me!"
