Chapter 121 Discovery "Master Bai, don't come here without any problems!"
Bai Yan devoted himself to his journey, when he was hungry, he broke open the dry and hard beard biscuits and ate a few mouthfuls, and when he was thirsty, he didn't care about anything else, he grabbed the snow on the side of the road and swallowed a few mouthfuls.
Yue Sheath couldn't stand it anymore, and asked to take a break several times, but Bai Yan refused.
"Late makes changes. The less time you spend on the road, the safer you are." Bai Yan's hands were frozen stiff, and he brushed the broken hair from his forehead, revealing a scar with a shallow scab.
This was caused by Bai Yan accidentally falling off his horse last night when they were in a hurry.
"What do you see over there?" Bai Yan suddenly interrupted Yue Sheath's trance.
Yue sheath looked in the direction he pointed, and saw a puff of smoke rising from the woods not far away. The two of them looked at each other, dismounted cautiously, and did not forget to wrap a cloth around the horse's mouth.
Following the thick smoke, they approached carefully, pushed aside a cluster of bushes, and saw more than a dozen brocade guards clearing an open space, lighting firewood to keep warm.
The grass was a bit wet, and several people struggled for a long time before they managed to light it. Even so, the thick smoke choked the few people who kept coughing.
"Is this going to work? What's the use of seeing thick smoke but no sparks!" One person pawed and pulled, and another person slapped him hard on the head.
"Don't move around, it would be nice if this pile of wet grass can be ignited."
"My God, the snow keeps falling, is it going to freeze to death?!"
"That's right, it wasn't like last year. It's almost New Year's Eve. The warm kang is burning at home. There is a maid who brings tea and water, and then they pour it on the gentle couch together. It's wonderful..."
"Stop talking, isn't it bad luck that you were sent out? It's freezing cold, so don't have any messy dreams!"
"Hey, if you want me to say it, I blame that traitor for letting the Nanyi prince go for no reason, and finally we are so tired that we suffer!"
"Who told him to be clever? Thinking about it now, maybe he was the same as Pingjinhou in the morning, and the two colluded with Nanyi, and maybe even Beidi was involved. Otherwise, it's only a few days, how can Yingdu There is a lot of noise everywhere, look, how many people have been arrested!"
"Tsk, even the majestic prince has been imprisoned in the mansion, and now a piece of imperial edict from the palace has been sent to northern Xinjiang. If you want me to say, this Marquis of Pingjin has done his best."
A few people talked excitedly, but one person poured cold water on the side, "Do you really think that Marquis Pingjin is a law-abiding person?"
"How do you say?" The people next to him became interested.
"The Marquis of Pingjin in the past dynasties were loyal and righteous, but they were too upright. But this Xiao Jiuqin is different. When he was young, he was a demon king in the world. He behaved according to his will. It is more common to go crazy. You think that a piece of edict Will he be able to obediently hand over the military power in his hands when he is sent to Northern Xinjiang?"
"It's a joke. He now holds half of the military power in Daliang. As long as he has a share, he will not be willing to do anything. Others can do nothing to him."
"But there are still the supervising army and the generals nearby, if they..."
"Hmph, just the wine bag and rice bag of the supervisor, if Marquis Pingjin thinks he is in the way, he can disappear without anyone noticing within a day. Do you think Marquis Pingjin ate fast and recited Buddha during the five years in northern Xinjiang?"
"Then... what about the Beidi barbarians?"
"This is even more incomprehensible. Although there are rumors in Yingdu, no matter what, Beidi has never stepped into Daliang for the past five years because of Pingjinhou. Will you finally step into Yingdu..."
"what do you mean?"
"The little devil is hard to deal with, not to mention that Yingdu is full of ghosts and monsters... It doesn't really matter whether Pingjinhou has colluded with the barbarians or not."
Several people were still talking, but Bai Yan, who was hiding behind the bushes, had an ugly expression on his face.
He and Yue Sheath looked at each other, and the two slowly backed out.
"What are those people in Yingdu thinking? Pingjinhou is desperately killing the enemy in the northern border, but they want to slander for no reason, and want to..." Yue Sheath was so angry that his teeth itch, "These beasts!"
"The edict is clearly intended to suppress Xiao Jiuqin. If it is read out in full view, at this moment, it will definitely shake the morale of the army."
"No matter what else, the people of Guixi Mansion can't bear to change their generals!"
Bai Yan's voice became colder and colder, "Besides Xiao Jiuqin... I don't think anyone else can make Beidi retreat!"
"Then what should we do now?" Yue Shea asked cautiously as he left the place with Bai Yan.
"As long as the edict is not delivered to Xiao Jiuqin for a day, he will not come down from that position for a day." Bai Yan's eyes darkened, "We will find a way to stop the edict before it arrives. Just don't admit it."
"The sky is high and the emperor is far away. There is no way to move the emperor here for a while."
"Okay." Yue Sheath let him order.
The two turned their horses around and rushed towards Guixi Mansion from the other direction, but the accident happened in an instant, a squirrel suddenly jumped out from the side, startling the horse under Bai Yan's seat.
Bai Yan didn't have time to react, so he dragged him with his sheath, but the sound of the horse's kicking was too obvious, and the team of Jinyi guards not far away heard the sound and rushed over.
"Who are you guys?!" One person's face was ugly, and the Xiuchun knife was out of its sheath in his hand.
Bai Yan's expression changed slightly, but he calmly pressed Yue Sheath's hand hidden under his sleeve.
"Several adults, the villain and the two brothers are passing by, passing by..." Bai Yan also pretended to be a lot of times on the way, and now he has the voice of a simple and honest common people, and he is disheveled, half of his body is bent, and he can't see it for a while. It's hard for the other party to see what's wrong.
"Get off your horses first." These Jin Yiwei didn't see anything at first glance, but they always felt strange in their hearts.
Although both Bai Yan and Yue Sheath were dressed in dirty and tattered clothes, there was a faint sense of weirdness.
"What should I do?" Yue Sheath's lips moved slightly, and Bai Yan squeezed his palm reassuringly.
"What are you dawdling about? Could it be that you have a ghost in your heart!" One of them started to shout.
With a thought in his heart, Bai Yan dismounted first.
Yue Sheath glanced at him, stuffed some hidden weapons in his sleeves, and followed Bai Yan off the horse.
The other party suspected it was true, two people came over with knives, told them to stop when they were three feet away from Bai Yan, and then picked the tip of Xiuchun knife against their chests.
Bai Yan had a "cowardly" look on his face, trembling uncontrollably, and Yue Shea also dodged subconsciously.
"What are you hiding from?!" The other party shouted sharply.
Yue sheath almost collapsed to the ground,
Bai Yan glanced at him cautiously, but dared not speak, this reaction was extremely normal in Jin Yiwei's eyes.
The doubts in their hearts were lowered a little. How did they know that Bai Yan was afraid of making too many mistakes? He had been in Yingdu for 20 years, and even though he tried his best to change it, his accent of Mandarin inevitably revealed some.
So talking less is the right thing to do, Yue Shea probably understands this, and like Bai Yan, at most his voice is submissive and vague, but he can't see any problems.
"Where are you going?" After the two checked, another person walked out, and the voice was the last one to speak at that moment. Bai Yan knew that this person was difficult to deal with, so he dealt with it carefully, biting his tongue and mumbled, " Go, go to Guixi Mansion..."
"Guixi Mansion?" The man frowned, "Now that Beidi soldiers are approaching the city, everyone wants to escape from there. Why do you two still go there?"
"Small, my little parents are still there... I feel worried and worried, so I want to go back..."
"Not afraid of death?"
"afraid……"
Bai Yan seemed to feel the man's staring gaze, and trembled again, "I'm afraid I'm going too... There are little parents there, home, too..."
The other party was silent for a while.
"It's expected to be two unlucky ghosts, let them go." One person approached.
"That's right, look at the shivering look, it doesn't look like it's harboring evil intentions, and it's freezing cold, they just happened to pass by."
As soon as the other party spoke, Bai Yan's heart hung high.
The Jinyiwei who made the decision was a thousand households, and Bai Yan was not afraid that others would find out, but he was only worried that he would notice something, and then he and Yue Xue would not be able to escape.
Just when the two were hanging on their hearts, that Qianhu finally said, "Let's go."
Bai Yan's heart relaxed, and Yue Sheath was about to kowtow in gratitude.
The person next to him waved his hand in disgust, "Get lost! Let us meet again, and you two will meet the King of Hades as soon as possible."
Bai Yan and Yue Shea led the horse and hurried away.
"Let's go, let's start the fire," the crowd turned around and walked to the original place.
"Hey, why don't you go, my lord?"
"You guys go back first, I'll go find some wild animals." That Qianhu said and left.
Before the crowd had time to speak, they saw that he had disappeared.
"Let's go, I'm probably choking on the smoke, so I don't really want to go back." Several people walked back, and after a while, the place was quiet again.
Bai Yan and Yue Sheath were far away before they dared to catch their breath.
Yue Sheath's complexion is not very good-looking. If there were fewer people just now, he would not be so wronged by Bai Yan. However, he is the only one of them who can fight. less than good.
"Fortunately, my lord, you reacted quickly." Yue Shea took a breath, and he was relieved a lot.
Bai Yan shook his head, "It's been perfunctory for a while, we can't take it lightly, if they react, you and I won't be able to escape."
Although he tried his best to cover it up, there were loopholes everywhere, and Bai Yan would not be so arrogant that the other party didn't react to anything.
Just as he was about to speak, Yue Sheath's eyes froze suddenly, and he looked not far behind Bai Yan, "Come out!"
The hidden weapon in his hand was about to fly out, the thorns in the place shook, and a person came out.
Bai Yan's eyes darkened, and Yue Sheath became vigilant again, and the hidden weapon in his hand broke through the sky in an instant.
The man raised his hand to block it, and his sleeve was cut, but the rest was nothing. He remained expressionless from the beginning to the end, but when he looked at Bai Yan the next moment, he suddenly pursed his lips, "Master Bai, don't come here!"
"you know me?"
"Naturally," the man didn't have a murderous look on his body, and Yue sheath was barely so nervous.
Bai Yan frowned, "Who are you?"
He knew that this person was a thousand households, but he didn't have any impression when he looked at his face.
"Forget it now... It's really annoying and helpless." The man's face was disappointed for a while, but Bai Yan didn't care at all, and instead watched his every move vigilantly.
This person can easily block the concealed weapon that has been sheathed, so it is not easy to deal with it.
Seeing Bai Yan's reaction, the man smiled wryly again, "Don't worry, I won't harm you. If I really want to arrest you, I've identified the two of you just now."
Bai Yan's heart skipped a beat: This person had already seen their identities just now.
As if seeing Bai Yan's thoughts, the man smiled, "Master Bai, you are indeed very clever at disguising, but you can't disguise your eyes..."
