Many years later, when those present mentioned the scene at that time, a bright color would still appear in their eyes.
What a breathtaking beauty it was, it was almost impossible to describe it in human language! At that moment, all the light in the world seemed to be concentrated, shining on her body, and then reflected back, making people dizzy.
Her name is Bai Yongzhi, one of the four most beautiful women in the capital, a brothel prostitute who entertains people with dance. A woman who comes from a humble background and cannot be humble anymore, but tries to marry into the founding lord's house and try to get rich. A woman who once reduced Wang Xun to everyone.
A joke in Chang'an, a woman whose official career was almost hopeless. A woman who gave herself to him without reservation when he fled in a hurry and when her life or death was uncertain, and from then on, she stayed behind closed doors for him and washed away all her glory.
She held a knife in one hand and a shield in the other. There were broken corpses all around, and her clothes were stained with spots of red. She was walking staggeringly like that, and she might fall down at any time, but she never fell.
There was a little fear and grievance in his eyes, but the corners of his mouth were full of tenderness.
This is a woman who can sing loudly with you and also be silent with you. A woman who is willing to sacrifice her whole life for your promise. A woman who can face all storms with you without flinching.
The woman who usually stays quietly under your wings, but can pull out the sword at critical moments and protect your back at all costs. She may not be noble enough, elegant enough, or virtuous enough in the eyes of the world, but,
But she can put her hand in yours and walk with you throughout your life. No matter whether there are flowers blooming in front of you or the wind and rain are dim!
"No wonder the general was willing to make enemies of the entire Chang'an city for her. If it were me, he would never give up." Fang Ziling sighed softly, lifted up his brocade robe, and wiped the blood on the blade.
At that time, Wang Xun had never married, but he brought home a geisha, three matchmakers, and six hires. The incident made a big fuss. When the whole Chang'an city mentioned this, almost everyone shook their heads. Including the Qin brothers who had a good personal relationship with Wang Xun.
, Zhang Xun, Ma Fang, etc. all whispered secretly, feeling that he was very imprudent in doing so.
To the children of aristocratic families, geishas are just playthings, similar to kittens and puppies. No matter how you play outside, even if you ask ten women to sleep with you, others will at most say you are young and romantic. But if you
Taking a geisha home as a wife, even just a concubine, would challenge not only the laws of the Tang Dynasty, but also the countless invisible class barriers throughout Chang'an City.
But today, no one doubts Wang Xun's original choice anymore. The emperor has run away, the court has dispersed, and the city of Chang'an will soon fall into the hands of the rebels. All the wealth and glory, and the splendid future, will soon become a thing of the past. Only you.
The person who once loved and loved you is still waiting for you quietly in front of your home. He has not changed and will never be lost.
"That fool doesn't know how to come up and help him!" At this moment, Fang Ziling was not the only one who was intoxicated. Several women sitting behind Aunt Gongsun saw Wang Xun sitting on the horse motionless from beginning to end.
, couldn't help but whisper and hug the injustice.
"Do you want to take care of this young couple's affairs?!" Aunt Gongsun turned around and glanced at them, grabbing a sister in red who was about to step forward to help, "The place is too narrow, if you move closer, you will be squeezed!
"
"That idiot is already crazy about him!" The woman in red was only about fourteen or fifteen years old, and had not yet tasted the love between young men and women, so she struggled angrily.
After all, Aunt Gongsun had practiced martial arts. With a little more force on her hands, she subdued the girl in red. "Just wait here and don't go over and cause trouble!"
Before he finished speaking, Wang Xun had already woken up. He swung his right leg and jumped off the horse. He strode forward and took the heavy shield from Bai Yunzhi's hand with one hand, "I'm back! Are you okay?!
Are Aunt Yun and Zi Luo okay?"
"It's all good. Erlang, you are back!" Bai Yunzhi smiled, the happiness on her face was so thick that she almost dripped, "I guess you will be back soon. Aunt Yun, Zi Luo and the others are at home.
The car is packed with all the necessary things and is ready to go at any time.”
Wang Xun nodded with a smile, took the knife in Bai Yongzhi's hand, and handed it to Wang Shisan who was following him. "I'll call them two. You can help me greet the brothers. The ones wearing Feilong Imperial Guard robes
They are all clothes we snatched on the way!"
"Yes!" Bai Yunzhi agreed softly. She lowered her head and gently adjusted the front of her clothes. Then she squatted down towards Wanqi Yuxi, Fang Ziling and others in a graceful manner, "Fortunately, a few strong men arrived in time.
, so that the Wang family did not suffer the disaster. The war was in chaos, and the family could not bring out anything decent to entertain everyone, so they had to invite a few strong men to come in first to drink a bowl of well water. It can be said that Erlang did not treat the guests rudely!"
"Don't dare, don't dare!"
"Ma'am, don't be polite!"
Wan Qi Yu Xie and Fang Zi Ling were so polite that they turned half sideways and returned the courtesy as subordinates. They did not notice at all that the woman in front of them did not actually have the status of a head wife.
A few rough guys were careless, but Mrs. Xiangjun, who had been watching the battle from a distance just now, listened very carefully. She furrowed her brows quietly, tugged at her husband, and murmured in a very low voice: "This woman is really bad."
Simple. If our Pearl gets married..."
"Shut up. If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb!" The bearded official suddenly became excited. He turned around and pushed Mrs. Xiangjun to stagger.
"You old immortal..." Mrs. Xiangjun was pushed off guard, and she almost fell into a pool of blood and came into close contact with the corpse on the ground. She staggered to stand upright, baring her teeth and claws.
Her two daughters suddenly got together with their father. They walked up to her and grabbed her arms. "Mom, it's better not to daydream. There is no room for outsiders in their home."
!”
"Mom, it's not all for you..." Mrs. Xiangjun retorted angrily, but was dragged further and further away by her two daughters. "...He just said a personal word to that woman.
I didn’t even say...,...that your mother will support you..."
At this moment, most people's attention was on Bai Yuzhi, and they didn't hear what Mrs. Xiangjun's family was muttering at all. A few people with ears as sensitive as Gongsun Auntie, even if they heard a phoenix claw, they shook their heads and laughed it off.
.Some personal words do not need to be said in front of outsiders. If you say them, it will make you angry. It's just that Mrs. Xiangjun doesn't understand this truth, and she won't be able to understand it in this life.
While he was smiling and watching the excitement, Wang Xun had already led a dozen servants, drove five carriages that looked unremarkable on the surface, and walked out of the square. Several other neighbors who lived in Chongrenfang also
They all stood at the door of their homes, eagerly watching the motorcade. Bai Yuzhi, who was greeting the guests for Wang Xun, saw this, smiled, and loudly extended an invitation to the neighbors: "If you want to go together, please follow us!
Let’s get out of the city first, and then we can figure out our own solutions!”
"Thank you ma'am!"
"Thank you, Mrs. Wang!" This was what the neighbors were waiting for. They immediately drove the already packed carriage out of the house and followed the team.
In an instant, the number of people who needed to be protected increased several times. When Wang Xun saw it, he did not express any objection. He just smiled and opened the door of a carriage and told Bai Yunzhi, "You Ziluo and Aunt Yun are both sitting here."
In this car, Ping'er, Xueyan and the others are in the car at the back! Be careful on the road and don't get separated!"
"Yes!" Bai Yunzhi agreed softly and jumped into the car neatly.
Time was running out, Wang Xun did not dare to make any delay, and immediately ordered the convoy to set off. Ma Fang also brought the group of people who had been guarding the gate of the square to come over and closely guard the convoy. At this time, the two brothers
Finally, I had the opportunity to talk about our separation. But suddenly I didn’t know where to start. I just opened my mouth and smiled dryly at the other party. After feeling silly for a while, I finally put away my smile and said, "What are you doing?"
...." "How do you..."
"You should tell me first!" Wang Xun smiled and shook his head, "My matter is too complicated. I will explain it to you in detail after I leave the city."
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked me to pick up your family from the city!" Ma Fang admitted readily, not wanting to hide anything from his good friend, "He left in a hurry yesterday and didn't pay attention to anything. On the way, he suddenly remembered that An Lushan might beat you.
It is your family’s idea to transfer 200 people from the Sixth Army of the East Palace to me and ask me to come over and protect your family!”
"Prince?" Wang Xun turned his head sideways and quickly glanced at Ma Fang's subordinates. There were about a hundred people left. Even though nearly half of them were injured, their combat effectiveness far exceeded that of the guards around him. "Your Highness, please give me permission."
Where are you going to protect my family? Where did those guys who attacked Fangmen just come from?!"
"He's from King Yong." Ma Fang took out a blood-stained fish charm and threw it to Wang Xun without hesitation, "I just searched for the guy you killed with a flying spear and found it on him.
.But there is no guarantee that someone has not framed King Yong. The current situation is too chaotic, and everyone wants to fish in troubled waters! But you can rest assured, His Highness the Crown Prince only told me to protect your family members out of the city, and did not order me to bring your family members to him.
Go. Even if such an order is given, I will not obey it!"
"It depends on what you said!" Wang Xun was a little embarrassed by Ma Fang's frankness, and complained with a smile. The fish charm is carved from a piece of fine mutton fat jade, with the seal of Prince Yong's Palace on the back.
.But based on this thing alone, it would be very far-fetched to conclude that King Yong is trying to harm himself.
"There are still a few survivors left alive. But they are all very tough, and the interrogation will not yield results in a short period of time. I hid the two least injured among them in the convoy. After leaving the city, find a quiet place. You can
Interrogate them separately." Ma Fang sighed softly and added in a low voice.
