716. The fallen leaves return to their roots, and the homeland is hard to leave(1/3)
Wu Hanlin obviously knew some inside information.
He mobilized the whole Wu clan to go to Taiping Pass. Tianwu Gate is now an empty building.
The door is empty.
Wang Qilin returned to Pingyang Mansion, where the garrison of Pingyang Mansion was under strict management.
He is a well-known figure in Pingyang Mansion. After all, he also made many achievements when he was in charge of the secret affairs of Pingyang Mansion.
The general guarding the city knew him, and when he saw him riding back, he rubbed his eyes - as if he didn't believe he would return at this time.
Seeing this, Wang Qilin knew that the city guarding general definitely knew something about the border fortress, and Wu Hanlin should have warned him.
He didn't ask, but the general came up to greet him out of curiosity: "Sir Wang, are you coming back to visit your relatives?"
Wang Qilin smiled and said, "I was transferred elsewhere, and now I'm here to take my family away."
The general immediately cupped his fists and said, "Congratulations, Mr. Wang must have been promoted. So what will the general call you now? Should I call you Wang Shuai or Mr. Jin?"
He swallowed his mouth and raised his head and said proudly: "Master Wang is now a golden general."
The general then saluted with a smile on his face: "Sir, General Jin, I am very polite. Please forgive me for not being able to show full courtesy because I am covered with armor."
Wang Qilin smiled and offered help: "General, you're welcome."
He nodded to greet the officers and soldiers, jumped off Qingfu and entered the city.
The general hesitated for a moment, then resolutely caught up with him and asked in a low voice: "Master Wang, can you take a step to speak?"
Wang Qilin followed him very kindly to a turret at the gate of the city, and the general said: "Sir Wang, as far as the general knows, there is an emergency at the border. Your Majesty will gather all your best troops and lead the expedition in person!"
"Not bad." Wang Qilin nodded to him.
The general asked again: "According to the last general's knowledge, Your Majesty also took the Lords above Fan Yin from Tingtian Prison to the border. The Lord Governor said that His Majesty wanted to have a showdown with the Tatars, so he also
I brought the elite of the Wu clan to join the battle."
"So, does Mr. Wang know what is going on at the border now?"
Wang Qilin did not hide too much from him and said: "The border war situation is very tight now. Some people are vying for the imperial power. The entire Central Plains may not be stable in the coming days. General, please fulfill your duties, guard this city, and try to protect the safety of the people in the city.
"
When the general heard this, his expression became serious.
Wang Qilin nodded to him again as a greeting, and then left the turret.
He was unwilling to serve Emperor Taishou, nor was he willing to be a pawn for Prince Jiuru.
The most miserable and helpless thing in the world is when a hero meets his end and finds his solitary grave, while a beauty grows old with her beauty and beauty.
There is a huge gap between the sea and the road, and there are infinite worries in the heart.
How many heroes were in their prime yesterday, but today they are still living in the sunset?
He didn't want to write a genealogy for the emperor, nor did he want to be a great hero.
If there are foreign thieves knocking on the gate, he is willing to defend the border to protect the people; if there are demons and troubles, he is willing to shed blood on the Central Plains and sacrifice his life for righteousness.
But now it was an emperor's family matter, so he didn't want to interfere, and he didn't want to make contributions.
The name of a hero sounds nice, but life may not be easy.
Splendid days are not necessarily happy days.
How many heroes and heroes have finally ended up with the fate of "having been frustrated all their lives until today, and no one in the world can watch the sunset"?
Mr. and Mrs. Wang Liuwu and Wang Lu took their daughter to help in Mrs. Suisui's teahouse. When Wang Qilin came in, Wang Liuwu was cleaning the table diligently, polishing a pear wood table until it was shiny.
The teahouse has a door curtain to block wind and dust in spring and keep out the heat in summer, and to block falling leaves in autumn and snow in winter.
There was a small wind chime on the door curtain. When Wang Qilin opened the door curtain, the small bell jingled.
Wang Liuqiao quickly threw the linen cloth over his shoulder and turned around with a smile on his face: "Your Majesty, please—oh, what a fool!"
He wiped his eyes and turned back sharply: "Mother, mother, Heidou, who do you think is back?"
Heidou swung his short legs and ran out of the inner hall. Wang Qiaoniang shouted from behind: "There are still ten characters left to be written. Please finish writing before leaving!"
Naturally, these words floated in the wind.
Heidou pretended not to hear. When he saw Wang Qilin, he jumped up and down excitedly, like a black toad: "Uncle, uncle, uncle, uncle - cough cough!"
I shouted so anxiously that I choked.
Wang Qilin picked up the black bean and tried it, and said with a smile: "Hey, the black bean has gained a lot of weight now."
Heidou said in a low-key tone: "It's mainly because I've grown taller."
Wang Lu, Wang Qiaoniang and others came out one after another. They were surprised when they saw him and asked him why he came back suddenly.
Wang Qilin simply asked them to pack the bags. The teahouse was a public place and many things could not be said clearly.
Wang Liuqiao was the most gossipy. She still asked, but Wang Liuwu gave her a stern look: "Why are you asking so many questions? Just go and pack your things as soon as I tell you!"
Then he asked Wang Qilin in a low voice: "Did your corruption break out? Did your superiors find out?"
Wang Qilin rolled his eyes helplessly and said, "Father, who do you think your son is? Is your son capable of such things as corruption?"
Wang Liuwu said: "Dad has quite a lot of confidence in you, but he has no confidence in Lord Xu. Doesn't it mean that Lord Xu is not with you? Dad thought he had been arrested."
Wang Qilin said: "He has gone back to pick up his family. Anyway, Dad, you should also pack your things. Let's leave Pingyang Mansion first."
"Where are you going? Going back to your hometown?" Wang Liuwu asked expectantly.
Wang Qilin said: "No, go to sea!"
Wang Liuwu was stunned for a moment: "Going to sea?!"
Wang Qilin urged him: "You go pack your things first, and I will talk to you in detail later."
Wang Liuwu suddenly became uneasy. He muttered all the way out: "What big mistake did you make to escape overseas?"
Their time was not urgent. Wang Qilin had another meal of mutton and shaomai in Pingyang Mansion before taking his family out of the city.
Madam Suisui didn't bring anything with her, she just freed a few guys.
She said with some sadness: "You and I may be destined to end up here in this life. In the days to come, everyone will cherish each other. If we are destined to meet again in the future, maybe we can meet again."
The honest and honest Bao Da scratched his messy hair and said with a smile: "What are you talking about, boss lady? You don't want us anymore?"
Hu Tu, who was also from the Fox clan, was much more free and easy. He bowed to Lady Suisui, bowed to the end, then turned around and walked into the shadow of the alley.
As the sun sets, the crows return to their nests.
Pingyang Mansion in early spring is a bit desolate.
Lady Suisui said to Bao Da: "My family is going to sea with my husband. Maybe I won't want to go back to Jiuzhou in a few years."
Bao laughed and said, "Then leave a space for us on the boat. Are we the only one missing?"
Lady Suisui said: "It's hard to leave our homeland. Are you sure you want to go overseas with us? Furthermore, this trip is mysterious and unpredictable. We are destined to go to sea, but we may not be destined to come back."
Bao Da still smiled: "Go, what's the hometown of our old Bao?"
Wang Liuwu, on the other hand, felt uncomfortable. After leaving the city, he asked Wang Qilin: "Xiao Qi, what happened? Why do you want to go to sea suddenly?"
Wang Qilin told his family what happened at Taiping Pass. The family members were amazed when they learned that the former Prince Jiuru was still alive.
Wang Liuqiao has a very simple mind. She said: "Just because he is still alive, we have to go to sea? Why, Xiaoqi, did you offend him?"
Wang Qilin said: "Of course not. If he wants to seize the throne, he will order the world's heroes, civil servants and generals to attack the current emperor. By then, the Central Plains will be plunged into war."
Wang Liuqiao said confusedly: "Why? I heard Mr. Shu said that Prince Jiuru was originally going to be the emperor. Without Prince Jiuru, His Majesty is now the emperor. In this way, if Prince Jiuru comes back, what will happen to him?"
As long as he is the emperor, why do these brothers have to fight?"
Hearing this, several people laughed.
So naive.
Heidou also laughed, then shook his head and said: "Master said, women have long hair but short knowledge!"
Wang Liuqiao's face suddenly turned red.
She sneered and said: "Heidou, your good ones are going to turn into bacon!"
Heidou suddenly panicked. He looked back at the fat pig lying at the back of the car in fear and said, "Auntie, Dou was joking just now."
Wang Liuqiao was very satisfied with his reaction. She stepped forward and said, "But my aunt is not joking. Think about it for yourself. We are going to sea. How will we go to sea? We will go to sea in a big ship. How will we feed the pigs if there is no pigweed on the ship? No.
You can’t live without eating it, so you must kill it and make it into bacon to take away!”
Heidou's little mouth curled up and he was about to cry.
"Sixth sister, don't scare the child," Wang Qilin glared at her, then coaxed Heidou, "Don't worry, it won't be made into bacon."
Heidou wiped his eyes and smiled.
Wang Qilin continued: "Your grandparents have bad teeth and can't eat bacon, so we stewed it. Since there are many of us, one or two meals can..."
Before he could finish speaking, Heidou burst into tears.
Wang Liuwu was so distraught that he rarely shouted at Heidou: "Don't cry!"
