Chapter 115: Things have been decided, return safely (tears for a monthly ticket)
Chapter 115 The matter is settled, return safely (crying for monthly votes)
(The difference from fourth place is just a few votes, I’m crying. Xiaojiu urgently asks for help with the monthly ticket)
When Dao Chi returned to the city, it was already four days later, on the first day of July.
The moment he saw the gate of the palace, tears almost filled his eyes. Lu Bing's eyes were also red. He and the Taoist idiot looked at each other. Both brothers were sighing.
After five days, even though the two of them didn't look too embarrassed, they couldn't stand it anymore. They smelled bad, and their clothes were wrinkled and stained with dust and sweat.
If you go to see the Crown Prince directly like this, I'm afraid you'll have to smoke the Crown Prince, so you have to go back to freshen up and change clothes first.
Originally, the two of them had a good plan. They wanted to find a reason to go back to the palace to tell the prince that they could take advantage of Liu Congyun's engagement to return to the city early. But they didn't want to be seen through by Lu Song, so they just stayed at the end until the refugees were killed.
They were "escorted" out of Anlu before they were allowed back. Even Hu Tou and Chen Chizhong returned to the palace one day earlier than the two of them.
According to Lu Song’s words, “Everything must be done from beginning to end and cannot be done halfway.”
The Taoist idiot knew that Lu Song meant well, but sleeping in the open air in the hot summer made the sweat on his body dry and dry. The feeling of sweat drying and flowing on his body was really unpleasant. Especially as a precaution, he had to remove his armor at other times unless he went to bed at night.
Wearing cowhide armor.
This hot season is really killing people.
Originally, we would stay outside for three days at most. Unexpectedly, during the inspection on the second day of the checkpoint, a lot of officials from Huguang Dusi came, also to arrest the bandits. In this way, the inspection became more careful and strict, and the time was delayed for an extra day.
day.
Seeing the menacing attitude of those people and their greed when looking at the refugees, it really frightened many people.
However, the refugees' luck came to an end. That night, Huguang Dusi's police officers arranged for people to squat behind the crowd and arrested dozens of people who tried to escape during the night.
These people were all taken to Huguang Dusi. It is hard to say what charges they would be charged with.
The twenty or so corpses and dozens of severely injured bandits that the guards had killed before were also "carried away" by people from Huguang Dusi. Not only that, they also questioned those who were released. If Lu Song hadn't bitten them to death
If he didn't let go, he was afraid that the palace's assistance to the local government to suppress the bandits would be ineffective, and instead he would be suspected of "supporting the bandits."
It wasn't until I changed the water twice, put on clean clothes from head to toe, and smelled the faint scent of soap locust that I felt like I was alive again.
Neither Chen Chizhong nor Hu Tou were there. The former was on vacation, the latter went to the school grounds, Wang Qi went to the Yiwei Department, and Lu and Liu went to the Chief Officials Department.
Dao Chi asked Jingzhe a few questions about the current situation of the palace, and knowing that nothing major happened, he left the palace and went to Qiyun Hall.
Huang Jin and Gao Kang are also on duty with the Crown Prince during the day, and it is Gao Kang who is in charge of communication today.
Seeing the Taoist idiot coming, he whispered: "Master Yuan and Master Lu are here, and His Highness is in a bad mood. If the second young master is not in a hurry, it would be better to wait for Mr. Lu to go in together."
Dao Chi showed his gratitude, thanked him in a low voice, and waited for Lu Bing outside.
After a cup of tea, Lu Bing came over and changed his hair again. His hair was wet.
Gao Kang then went in to pass the message, and then came out to pass the message to the two of them.
In the room, apart from the prince, Huang Jin, and Lu Fang, there were only two other people, Yuan Zonggao and Lu Song.
The crown prince looked angry, Lu Song looked ashamed, and Yuan Zonggao frowned.
Seeing Dao Chi and Lu Bing, the prince's expression softened slightly. He looked at them and said, "I'm tanned and look much stronger. Thank you for your hard work. I missed my monthly vacation. I'll have a few days off tomorrow and come back on the fifth day of the new year."
.”
"Thank you, Your Highness." After hearing this, the two of them were filled with joy.
Under normal circumstances, the prince would be willing to let the two of them talk and ask about the refugees who were fighting against the refugees, but he was really not in the mood right now. After saying this, he sent the second son off.
When he went out, Dao Chi hesitated in his steps and looked at Lu Song deeply. It wasn't until he saw Lu Song shaking his head slightly that he clenched his fists and came out of the Qiyun Hall.
be terribly upset.
As early as when the Huguang Dusi came to "mention" the person, Lu Song had gone to Dao Chi privately and asked him to hide one thing and not to mention that he had come up with the idea of releasing the person.
It seems that the Huguang Dusi side went too far in bullying. Not only did they take away the captured bandits and take the credit from the palace, they also wanted to push the charge of "ineffective suppression of bandits" to this side.
Of course, Lu Song would not admit that he was a "bandit" and killed those who he said were refugees.
Although Lu Song had good intentions to "take the blame" for the Taoist idiot, how could the Taoist idiot accept it calmly and do nothing?
Lu Song then told the truth: "Erlang, even if there is no such thing as Huguang Dusi, I still want to talk to you about this... Although you have not officially become my disciple due to your status, I have always regarded you as my disciple in my heart.
Wait... His Highness doesn't like people who are too smart..."
The last sentence was almost inaudible.
After speaking, Lu Song said: "As long as you know what's going on, I always hope that you can be with Lu Bing and always be by His Highness' side."
How could a Taoist fool fail to see this in His Majesty?
It was only this time that I was afraid of the refugee crisis and changing history, so I took the initiative.
He was really grateful to Lu Song for such a suggestion...
Looking at the atmosphere in the Qiyun Hall just now, it must be said that it is also the matter of Huguang Dusi.
Huguang Dusi "extends his strength", and the prince is a strong man, so it would be strange not to be angry. But for a filial prince who has not inherited a title, even if he is angry, he cannot do anything to Huguang Dusi.
Lu Bing complained and said: "Those people are so shameless. We worked hard at the checkpoint and they were nowhere to be seen. After we had dealt with it properly, they came out to grab the credit and even beat us up."
Complaints can only be complaints. Even the prince can't express such a tone, let alone them.
However, even if the prince could not do this to Hu Guangsi, he would not push Lu Song out like a coward to take the blame, and it would probably be left to nothing.
Thinking of this, Dao Chi felt a little at ease.
It seems that in the eyes of outsiders, Xingfan is weak and the prince can be bullied at a young age.
However, this impression is more in line with the wishes of those big men in the imperial court.
For a moment, Dao Chi didn't know whether to be grateful or to complain about the injustice.
Since he was going on vacation, he thought he would go to see Wang Qi before leaving the house, so he separated from Lu Bing and went to the Yiwei Department.
Before he could get close, he saw Wang Qi walking towards him.
Seeing Dao Chi, Wang Qi was a little excited. He took Dao Chi's arm and looked him up and down several times before he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "All beards and tails, very good. I heard that many people died."
, it makes people tremble when they hear it, it’s great that Erlang is fine.”
When I ambushed the bandits for the first time, not only did the bandits die more than 20 people, but due to close combat in the forest, the ceremonial guards here also died and injured several people.
Thinking about Wang Qi's current arrangement, most of the people who enter the palace in the future will be in the martial arts. The Taoist Chi said: "Brother Qi, this time Boss Chen and Lu Bing and I are going to kill people with swords... Brother Qi doesn't want to practice, but he can do it in the future."
The power of self-defense.”
Wang Qi heard this and waved her hands hurriedly: "Give me a break, it's better to let me be a useless person and wait to die. I really can't stand your courage to practice three days in the summer and three nines in the winter."
Seeing that he really had no interest, Dao Chi changed the subject and asked about Liu Congyun's engagement.
"It's very lively, and the banquet is not bad." Having said this, he came close to Dao Chi and whispered: "Erlang, I heard from my sister-in-law that Liu Sanlang's sister looks like a flower, and is even prettier than Miss Shen's family.
She is three points better than her, and is regarded as a treasure by Liu Sanlang's parents. I am of the same age as you, and have not yet been engaged, but I am a perfect match for you. Can you please ask your grandfather to help you propose marriage?"
The Taoist idiot shook his head and said: "Don't do it. Seventh Brother has never thought about why Liu Sanlang is more concerned about the prince's errands than before?"
"Huh?" Wang Qi said in surprise: "Isn't it true that his family has also been thinking about the three princesses? They haven't given up yet?"
Dao Chi smiled and said: "Liu Sanlang matches the age of the three princesses, but his sister does not match the age of His Highness? In the territory of the vassal state, which one is more prominent, the Yibin family or the princess's natal family?"
Wang Qi said: "It turns out that this is the plan of the Liu family. No wonder Liu Sanlang is very concerned about the Jiang family." Speaking of this, he said in a sly manner: "He has two brothers. His family is in a poor family and he is used to helping out. He is friends with Jiang Lin outside.
Okay, I was engaged in eating, drinking, whoring and gambling. I even bought a nugget a few days ago and placed it outside. I went to have wine and have fun every now and then. I thought the head of the Liu family was very understanding, even if I worried that the Jiang family was the princess’s natal family.
, he wouldn’t indulge his clan members’ mischief like this. Now that I think about it, it turns out there is another reason.”
The Taoist Chi said: "If you don't become a prince, even if you plan ahead, you can still prepare for a rainy day."
Wang Qi smiled and said: "You are not a clean person who can use such methods. But dog bites dog and you have a hairy mouth. But I don't want to think about His Highness's temper. He is not as good-natured as the prince. My uncle will not stay when he is an eyesore, let alone
Talking about brother-in-law, the Liu family will also take advantage of His Highness, we have to wait and see."
In Anlu City, the four families surnamed Wang, Shen, Liu, and Lu maintain a delicate balance. If the Liu family wants to break the balance and take advantage of the power of the palace, it also depends on the willingness of the three families.
When a clan chooses a relative, it is not based on family background.
When the crown prince comes out to choose a concubine, the other three surnames will definitely have candidates they support. Then we will have to see who has the most magical powers.
When the Taoist idiot thought that Liu Congyun actually wanted to be the elder brother-in-law, he thought of a sentence: "I am afraid that the gangsters are educated." If the Liu family's thoughts were really offended, then the Liu family would never end up in the situation that everyone hated like the Jiang family.
.
He touched his chin. If the prince did not come to the capital, of course the princess would have to be chosen from the vassal state; it was a pity that the Liu family was in bad luck.
After the crown prince came to Beijing, he chose not the princess but the Queen of the Yuan Dynasty. The circle of interests involved behind it was even larger. People like the Liu family were not qualified to be selected at all.
While chatting, the two brothers arrived at the school grounds.
Xing Baihu and Hutou were both there. Dao Chi and Wang Qi watched for a while. After Hutou finished playing with the knife, they stepped forward and said a few words.
Although Xing Baihu is still indifferent, his attitude towards Taoist idiots has become much stronger than before.
Since he was interested in Hu Tou, he naturally inquired about Hu Tou's identity and origin clearly. When he found out that Hu Tou's ancestor was an old servant of the Wang family, and his father and uncle were still serving as servants in the Wang family's ancestral house, he did not want to see the Wang family.
I am afraid that Wang Qi and Dao Chi will regard Hu Tou as their slave.
Even though the two of them treated Hutou very well and had no intention of being superior to him, Xing Baihu was still worried that they had other plans for Hutou, or that they would suppress Hutou more because they both had the same surname.
However, after more than a year, he could see to some extent that the two people were sincere towards Hutou and had no ill intentions. In addition, during the past few days of camping in the wild, he could clearly see Hutou's close dependence on Dao Chi...
