The courtyard door opened, and a group of soldiers rushed in. One side searched the outside, and the other side surrounded Rong Suihe and Dong Liang, questioning their origins.
Dong Liang was sweating on his legs, and he forced himself to calm down and revealed his disguised identity. The soldiers searched the small yard and found no one else, so they left after saying a few words.
The legs and feet were tied neatly to the door bolt, and the master and servant returned to the house. Dong Liang glanced over and found that several valuable ornaments were gone. It was 100% that he had taken advantage of the soldier just now.
Bu Nao didn't care about those details at that time. He said to Tong Rong Sleeping Crane with a solemn expression: "Prince, although we have concealed it, you have an outstanding appearance, and you can tell at a glance that you are extraordinary. Even if those soldiers don't recognize you, When I look back at the official, I can’t help but ask for a report. We’d better leave here as soon as possible!”
Rong Suihe shook his head and said, "Is he asking for help? Let's see how they react when they notice he's here."
Seeing that Dong Liang was begging for something to say, he pointed to the stone table at the back of the room and said, "I'll go and press the lotus flower pattern on the east side of it to the east!"
Dong Liang did as he was told, and saw the stone table parting silently, revealing a hole. It was dark inside and could not be seen clearly, but there was clearly wind blowing out, and it was obviously open to the ground. He looked at it in confusion for a while, then raised his head and asked, "What?"
"The secret passage leading to the outside of the city was prepared a few years ago." Rong Suihe walked over slowly with his legs crossed, took a look, and said with complicated eyes, "If the situation is good later, Let's evacuate from there. When we get outside the city, just me and the two of us are like fish entering the sea. If there are thousands of troops chasing us, what is there to be afraid of?"
"Prince, but is it Western Xinjiang?" Dong Liang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the way out, but he was not worried. "Ruru sent Qi Lifagu rulu and Meng Boqin to attack the northern Xinjiang, but the new Khan Nafuzhen still remained. If you go to Zhenwang's tent, you might as well miss the fact that Western Territory is watching you with eager eyes! If you knew that you were not in Western Border at that time, how could you not take the opportunity to fall into Dongshi's trap?"
Rong Suihe said: "I was worried about the premature birth in the county prince's palace. I pretended to be injured earlier in my confinement and went to Northern Xinjiang secretly. During that time, Mr. Leyang, Yiliu and the others in Western Xinjiang and in the east were not allowed. Host. I saw that Gaomi Wangbu Nao had been poisoned for two months, and the city of Chang'an in the east was in a mess and could no longer hold up. Although this was not because of our incompetence, it was enough to prove that the solitary man was not in Western Xinjiang. Fuzhen probably already knows!"
"He didn't invade Northern Xinjiang personally at that time, maybe because he was not sure where I was and what his intentions were? This move shows that he was afraid of Guogu."
"That's not human nature. After all, he suffered too much from being alone."
"Since Bu Nao has become wary of Cuo Gu, even if he knows Gu's whereabouts, Cuo Gu will not dare to rashly do anything to Xijiang unless he has a thorough understanding of Gu's purpose and the actions of those Yuezi. Because he There is absolutely no way to confirm whether Gu’s whereabouts were leaked out of necessity or on purpose?”
He said lightly, "And it doesn't matter even if Na Fuzhen personally leads an army to attack Western Xinjiang... After all, although the world thinks that Gu's foundation is in Western Xinjiang, Gu never thinks that there is anything in Xijiang that cannot be abandoned?"
Dong Liang was stunned when he heard this, but he could not let go of his frown: "Prince, even if you have made arrangements in Western Xinjiang, but the sword has no eyes, this is too risky!"
If he couldn't persuade Rong Suihe to leave, he could just keep silent if Rong Suihe got impatient and even wanted to send him away first.
After a while, Dong Liang looked at the sky and sighed before going to cook.
His cooking skills were average. At that time, because he was not in the mood, he hastily packed a few side dishes on the table and ate Wei Tongjue wax by himself. Rong Suihe said: "It tastes bad!" However, with a pot of rice wine, But he ate without hesitation for half an hour before asking Dong Liang to pack up.
During that period, Dong Liang's right leg almost never left the handle of the knife at his waist, but everything outside the small courtyard was always calm.
In the evening, Rong Suihe Xu saw that he was too anxious, and reminded him: "Gu Fei's legs are not strong enough to tie a chicken, and there are many people who know that. If you are wrong, you will most likely choose to sneak attack at night. I might as well go get settled now and get up when it gets dark later, so as not to lose my energy by then."
Dong Liang was not willing at first, but after thinking about it, he was afraid that he would be too tired and would drag down Rong Suihe, so he went back to his room to rest worriedly.
As soon as he fell asleep, it was midnight before he knew it. When he opened his eyes and saw the sky full of stars, he was frightened and hurried to find Rong Suihe. When he walked out of the door, he saw that although the doors and windows in the main hall were closed, the paper on the windows was not transparent. Apparently more than one or two lamps were lit.
Thinking that Rong Suihe was reading or taking a stroll, Dong Liang quickened his pace and was about to push the door in, but unexpectedly saw two figures reflected on the window paper, walking away from each other, maybe they were talking.
His heart was awe-inspiring, Dong consciously grasped the handle of the knife, and raised his voice to test: "Master?"
"Dong Liang, I'm up just in time, let's go make a pot of tea!" Rong Suihe's voice immediately came from inside, calm and calm, not like there was any emergency.
Dong Liang had doubts, so he hurriedly went to the back to make tea, took out a lacquered wooden tray, packed it, arranged Dong's clothes, and then sent it to the main hall.
Pushing open the ajar door, one could see the lights outside filtered by the glazed screen, still as bright as daylight.
Turning around the screen, Rong Suihe was walking away from someone a few feet away behind the raised desk with the chicken wing wood carved with curly grass patterns.
Both of them wore black robes without lines, so that the sleeping crane's face was completely uncovered. His black hair was neatly tied into an amber cloud-patterned crown, with a mutton-fat jade gilt round hairpin inserted horizontally. Huo Dong's skin was almost crystal clear, and his eyes were as sharp as the stars on a cold night. Although there was no anger between his brows at this moment, his tightly pursed thin lips showed a less than happy mood.
And the person he had the wrong conversation with was still wearing a large bamboo hat even though he was outside.
There is black gauze hanging down from the edge of the hat, reaching straight to the chest.
Even the legs resting on her legs were tightly wrapped in leg wraps.
If they weren't tall and feminine, it would be hard to tell the difference between men and women.
Dong Liang secretly looked at the man for a moment, unsure whether he was an enemy or a friend. He put his feet lightly into the tea and stood behind Rong Suihe. When he saw Rong Suihe waving his legs to signal him to go out, he reluctantly retreated.
After he left, the room was silent for a moment, and then Rong Suihe said calmly: "Thank you for your hard work, Zujia. Please have some tea!" "
The man in front of me didn't move at all, and said calmly: "It's getting late, he should go back."
His voice was low and hoarse, and he sounded a bit older.
"Let me be clear, your Majesty can come and go at any time." Rong Suihe picked up the tea bowl, took a sip of tea, smiled, but there was no smile in his eyes, "What do you think, Zujia?" "
"If he comes alone tomorrow night, doesn't he deny the answer the prince asked for?" The man said slowly, "Although that person has never talked to the prince, but he has taught for many years and left a legacy. Doesn't the prince really want to ask for it?" Do you doubt it?"
Rong Suihe said: "I don't doubt it." After all, Meng Guiyu has a bright moon, and his efforts alone are not insignificant, right? "
The man's veil moved slightly, as if he smiled silently, and said: "How can the prince compare himself to Meng Guiyu? If nothing else is said, please ask yourself, the effort you have spent on Meng Guiyu's body, who has Is it possible to spend all your efforts on your body? You are wrong about Meng Guiyu. Did you take advantage of the situation? There happened to be such a person, and his position happened to be able to take advantage of the layout, so he added fuel to the flames. Without Meng Guiyu, there are also Zhang Guiyu and Li Guiyu! And that man, over the years, has cultivated a master of Wuyi Camp. Does the name and character he chose for you clearly show that he has wrong expectations for you? "
"Prince, you are wrong about his suspicion. Maybe he knows Quandong and won't care."
"But for some people like Zhai Mule... it's a bit disappointing!"
"Is that because we are different from each other?" Rong Suihe was indifferent to what he said and said coldly, "We are the teacher's companions, and after the teacher left, we still carried out his plan without asking. The plan will require us to pay a price for our friends. But I am not a disciple of the teacher, and I am not a disciple who has never been informed of his will. I don’t know whether I agree with the teacher’s will... We can live with firm goals and be confused. Death alone is impossible."
The man pondered for a moment and said: "The prince is wrong. He and I can't be considered as people with firm goals, because they don't know the real purpose of that person, so they can't follow the instructions of the person who came from the East during his lifetime." Just doing something!”
Rong Suihe said: "Then what did the teacher give us?"
