People who are not used to drinking ginger tea will inevitably have their stomachs churn when they drink it for the first time. Wei Heyan endured the discomfort and threw the empty bowl on the table.
"Master Si, can you go out now?"
He was not sure what Si Yiluo's purpose was in approaching him, but he clearly heard the name blurting out of her mouth that night.
Shuyi, the unknown cousin of King Han. In this world, there are no more than three people who know the cousin of King Han.
She is the third one.
If there was a seemingly non-existent murderous aura that made the candle flame jump, Si Yiluo put away the bowl and went out carrying the teapot.
Wei Heyan didn't make a move until she turned around and closed the door.
Her skills were no worse than his. If she really took action, the odds of winning would be 50%. She couldn't die before she figured out what her purpose was.
Wei Heyan clutched his chest and wanted to vomit but couldn't. His throat and stomach felt as if they were on fire.
Suddenly he realized, why should he listen to her? Why was he afraid of being discovered by her?
If she really finds out something...
The man lying on the bed murmured something inconsistent.
"Killing means..."
It rained all night, and when we were on our way the next morning, the rainwater flowing down from the mountains flooded the official road.
Barely halfway through, the wooden bridge on the river was washed away by the flood, and the turbid water rushed downstream one after another. Across the river, we could see the team on the opposite side stopping to move forward.
The leader was a young general in white clothes and silver armor. He looked at the rushing river with an impatient look on his face.
His mouth opened and closed. Although he was far away and couldn't hear clearly, Si Yiluo guessed that what he said was definitely not good.
"Damn it, I can win every battle, but my trip back to the capital is blocked by one obstacle after another. I have been walking for almost ten days in just a few days!"
"If you don't let me enter the capital, I will never come to the capital again!"
Xiang Xiao jumped off his horse and kicked a stone angrily.
Si Yiluo waved to him.
Xiang Xiao actually had a good tutor, but he grew up in the military camp and spoke too politely, so he gradually developed a habit of swearing.
Opening your mouth and keeping silent to greet the enemy, your eighteenth generation ancestor is quite reserved.
"Your Majesty, look at the man in red across the river, is he our Si Qianhu?"
Xiang Xiao had good eyesight and saw a group of people coming from far away. When he saw that the leader was Si Yiluo, he stood up from his horse, waved his hands twice, jumped off his horse and stood on the stone to face
She shouted.
Si Yiluo analyzed from his mouth shape that his original words were: "Si Yiluo, you look so good in red clothes..."
She grinned. The young man was still as lively as ever! After a while, he changed his position seven or eight times. For fear that she might not hear clearly, he shouted the same words to her.
Si Yiluo didn't want to be as stupid as him, so he cut a branch from the mountain, held up his cloak as a flag, and followed him with a semaphore.
As if he had found some fun, he also found a flag and waved it endlessly.
Wei Heyan looked at their chaotic and irregular movements and asked with a sullen face: "What did the other party say?"
It was easy to get along with Xiang Xiao. Si Yiluo couldn't hide the smile on his lips. He carefully watched Xiang Xiao's movements for a while and said: "They encountered mountain bandits twice. Princess Pingchuan had fetal pressure.
But it’s okay now.”
"It seems that the water in the river will not recede until tomorrow. Let's set up camp on both sides and wait until we meet tomorrow."
Raising so many flags and only saying these two sentences?
Normally this river is just a creek, the water is no deeper than a calf.
The rain now gathered into a wide river, with branches broken by the wind floating on the river, and in the center they were swept deep by the torrent.
All we can do now is wait for the river water to recede.
Si Yiluo took back his cloak and when he saw fish on the river, he put a branch into the water to catch the fish, and the fish with its belly turned upside down was fished ashore.
"You can have extra food at noon today."
The fish were all dead, and Wei Heyan was afraid that his secret would be exposed if he asked, so he endured his doubts and watched her take out a dagger and squat down by the river to handle the fish.
"There should be a reservoir in the upper reaches of this river. The muddy water choked the fish in the reservoir to death. The dead fish floated on the water and drifted downstream along the current."
"People downstream use bamboo baskets or fishing nets to catch a lot of fish. When I was a child, I loved to fish by the river."
Si Yiluo looked back and smiled, and Wei Heyan intuitively felt that her explanation was for him.
"The commander's words reminded me of my childhood..."
Almost all of the people present were poor, especially the eunuchs from Dongchang. Who was not sold to the palace by his family after being forced into desperation?
I have suffered all kinds of hardships since I was a child.
They were eager to give it a try and had no tools at hand, so they picked it up along the river bank. The river here was wide and the current was slow. Some fish were washed directly to the shore and could be caught with just a hand.
"I caught a crucian carp! Wild crucian carp has many spines and is not tasty, but the soup is really delicious!"
"Put the leftover fish bones on the fire and bake them until crispy. Chew them and it will taste delicious!"
Everyone joined the fish-catching team with each other, and some people simply took off their shoes and jumped into the river.
This scene seemed to Wei Heyan to be offensive.
When he was a child, he was taught very strict etiquette, and now he serves Emperor Yao every day, and there is no room for error in the rules.
"Let's go back."
Since the other party can't get through, they can't get through either, so they can only go back to the inn to settle down temporarily.
Wei He spoke in a calm tone, but could not refuse.
Si Yiluo threw the fish in a string to his subordinates.
"Take it back and make soup. When making soup, crucian carp should be fried in oil until both sides are golden, then mashed and added with water. The soup will be milky white, fresh and not fishy. However, these fish are choked to death and have a strong muddy smell.
, when making soup, you can put some rice wine, skim off the foam and put it on the fire for half an hour."
Si Yiluo's request was harsh, and after her subordinates agreed, three or two got together to discuss it, but she didn't care, occasionally interjecting a word or two.
Although the people brought by Wei Heyan followed him with a straight face, their ears were cocked and their eyes were looking in that direction. When they heard something funny, they pursed their lips and laughed along with them.
Wei Heyan glanced at them, and they immediately lowered their heads and looked at the mud in front of them, pretending to be on their way seriously.
But the heart is no longer in the team. It is rare to leave the palace, and even the air is free.
"Master Si."
Si Yiluo rode forward and walked alongside him.
"What is the Lord's command?"
When the girl faced him, she put on a dignified face again, losing the liveliness she had just now.
"I shouldn't talk too much, but Sir Si, as the highest authority in the Imperial Guard, hangs out with his subordinates... it seems a bit inappropriate."
People of the same generation call each other brothers and sisters, and those in high positions do not get angry and assert themselves. If the people below are allowed to have a correct temper, what will happen?
"My supervisor, this is for Mr. Si's good."
Si Yiluo pursed his lips. Wherever he appeared, the space was always filled with a sense of oppression. He didn't need to speak, just one look could make the difference between life and death.
Everyone is afraid of him.
In the past, Si Yiluo, like him, relied on the fear of others to win over people's hearts. In the end, everyone pushed her against the wall. Except for Si Hai, who was like her, everyone else chose to step on her hard when she was down.
The failure of her previous life taught her a lesson of blood and tears.
"Have you ever heard of a word, Lord Governor?"
Si Yiluo looked far into the distance. The clouds and mist covering the top of the mountain were diluted by the golden light of the sun, and were covered with a layer of warm yellow gauze. The actual thick white mist gradually dissipated.
"Relaxation and relaxation are the way of civility and martial arts."
"The law can be used to restrain behavior, and emotions can win over people's hearts."
The light that penetrated the clouds fell on the girl, making her look even more dazzling.
"Wrong truth." Wei Heyan disagreed, "Everyone in the world is indifferent. Only fame, wealth, power and money can win people's hearts."
