When light appeared in front of him again, Lei Wanchun struggled to turn his head and looked around, only to find that he was lying on a very luxurious bed, covered with a thin but extremely warm brocade quilt. At the foot of the bed, there was a man in clothes.
The snow-white woman put her arms under her forehead and was sleeping soundly. Her dark hair was spread from her shoulders to the heels of her knees, like a waterfall.
"How could I sleep here?" He was shocked. He turned over and tried to sit up. But there was a sudden sharp pain in his shoulder socket, and all the strength in his body was immediately drained away.
"Are you awake?" Yang Yuyao, who was sleeping, was awakened by the violent shaking of the bed. She raised her face, her tired eyes filled with unconcealable joy. "Don't move, the arrow on your shoulder is poisoned, crazy monk."
It took more than an hour to clean the wound!"
"Crazy monk?" Lei Wanchun frowned, not remembering that he had ever known such a person. After the severe pain in the wound on his shoulder, there was an itching sensation, which made him believe that Yang Yuyao had not deceived him. But why did he run back again?
Did the pursuers discover his identity? Everything seemed like a dream, and there was so much chaos that no one could figure it out.
"Master Nianchi from Ci'en Temple is proficient in the art of Qihuang and often treats people for free. You were injured last night, and there was no doctor in my house who was good at treating wounds, so I sent someone to Ci'en Temple to invite Master Nianchi.
Because he lives very close to me and always likes to talk nonsense to get money from me, so everyone calls him the crazy monk." Seeing Lei Wanchun's eyes full of confusion, Yang Yuyao smiled and whispered
Explanation: "However, although he is crazy, his methods of curing diseases are really good. The poison that my doctor is helpless to deal with can be dealt with in just three strokes."
As soon as she smiled, her tired face suddenly became more charming. Lei Wanchun saw that her eyes were bloodshot and guessed that she must not have slept a wink for the rest of the night. He grinned and said very apologetically: "Now, really, really.
You're causing trouble. Alas, I, Lao Lei, don't know anything else, but my ability to cause trouble is..."
"What are you talking about, Brother Lei!" Yang Yuyao glared at him gently and reached out to cover his lips, "Brother saved me once, if I save him again this time, wouldn't it be even? What's the matter?
How troublesome? Besides, if you hadn’t drank too much at my house last night, you probably wouldn’t have been plotted by others along the way!”
"The people who scared your driver that day were all my friends. I stretched out my hand to stop the startled horse, which is what I should have done!" Lei Wanchun shook his head and interrupted in a low voice. He wanted to tell the other person that he was not attacked on the road last night.
Instead of intercepting and killing people, he visited Xue's house at night and accidentally saw a huge secret, so he was shot with poisonous arrows by the Wannian County guards. But for a while, he didn't know where to start, and he hesitated.
Next, the tongue becomes more and more clumsy.
Like a wife who knows both coldness and warmth, Yang Yuyao stood up with a smile, "If you feel sorry for me, just find another chance to save me in the future! Anyway, you may not be able to leave the capital for a while. You must be hungry.
I’ll order someone to bring you a bowl of chicken soup!”
"Wait!" Seeing Yang Yuyao's figure approaching the door of the house, Lei Wanchun shouted anxiously, "Listen to me. I accidentally got into a big trouble last night. I didn't mean to come here to you.
I ran away, but I was in a daze at the time..."
"It's okay!" Yang Yuyao stopped and turned around with a smile, "I've seen a lot of troublesome things. How could anyone see you running to my house in the dark? Besides, there's probably no one in the capital who dares to come to my house to arrest someone.
several!"
The more she said this, the more uneasy Lei Wanchun felt. He remembered that after he jumped off the high wall last night, he noticed that the arrow was smeared with poison. So he struggled to get on his mount, grabbed the silver medal in his hand, and ran away
At that time, I just thought that the other party was too powerful and could not bring disaster to Zhang Xun, and could not let the little brat Wang Xun get involved again. But unexpectedly, he fell into a drowsy state and lost consciousness only halfway through the escape.
He couldn't remember the rest of the things. But since he had thought about not causing trouble to Zhang Xun and Wang Xun, I'm afraid the capital was so big that the only one who could stand up to the group of people who were chasing him was Mrs. Guo Guo.
.Even if he was not sincere in bringing disaster to Madam Guo's residence, I am afraid that he had similar thoughts in his mind at that time. Otherwise, Wu Zima, who was in sympathy with his master, would not have chosen to run to Yang Yuyao's residence.
Thinking of this, he felt even more ashamed. He struggled to hold up half of his body and said with a wry smile: "You'd better listen to what I have to say! I don't know how much trouble I've caused this time. I have an acquaintance who is
The little guy who startled your carriage that day, the one named Yu Wen Zida. Recently, he offended some kind of deity, and was thrown into Wan Neng County Prison in a daze. And then because his answers did not conform to the meaning of Wan Nian County Magistrate,
I was beaten very badly. On my way back last night, I thought that Xue Rongguang, the head catcher in Wan Neng County, might know something secret, so I made an impromptu plan to visit him at his house. Unexpectedly, a group of people were having a party in his house.
It seemed like they were plotting something shady. I was curious, so I couldn’t help but lie on the roof and listen a few more times. But before I could hear the words clearly, I was discovered by the other party!”
"Then they shot you with poisonous arrows?" Yang Yuyao was also a person who had experienced some storms. She only listened to half of the words, then slowly walked back and knelt down next to Lei Wanchun. "No wonder it was so early this morning.
, the government officials of Wan Neng County have thrown the entire city of Chang'an into chaos as if they had lost their ancestors, but they refused to say clearly what they were looking for. It turns out that the root is here! Have you ever seen clearly who are the people in the house?
?”
Lei Wanchun thought for a moment and recalled in a low voice, completely unaware that Yang Yuyao seemed to be another person inside her body at this moment, "There are fifty or sixty government servants, and many helpers and gangsters. The person in charge is not Xue Rongguang, but a person
He is a fifth-rank official, with a long face and a short beard under his chin. He looks to be in his early forties."
"If you are in the fifth rank, you should be at least a doctor! You have a long face and short beard. How tall are you approximately? Are you fat?" Yang Yuyao continued to ask in a low voice, flexing and stretching her fingers. When the sunlight came through the window, her nails looked particularly long and sharp.
"Slightly fat, of medium height, about 7 feet 3 inches, with a little droopy eye corners." Lei Wanchun was stunned for a moment, looked at Yang Yuyao's sharp fingers, and responded in a low voice.
He found that the other party had turned back into the Guo State lady. She was very charming, but there was a hint of ruthlessness deep in her soul. This feeling made him extremely uncomfortable, but there was nothing he could do about it. The dream would eventually wake up, no matter what
How deeply I slept, how warm my dream was.
Realizing that Lei Wanchun was looking at her, Mrs. Guo Guo's face turned red unnaturally. She smiled and explained softly, "Brother, if you don't want to tell me, you don't have to tell me. My little sister will never force you!"
"I'm afraid the sooner I let you know the situation, the better!" Lei Wanchun sighed softly and added in a low voice, "That fifth-grade supervisor was very ruthless. In less than half a stick of incense, I saw his life. They suffocated two lazy government officials to death with mulberry paper. Then, they beat the other two until they were half dead!"
"That fifth-rank official should be Wang Wen, who is the younger brother of King Yin of Jingzhao. Both of their brothers are famous for being cruel and ruthless." Obviously, Mrs. Guo Guo was not interested in the method of suffocating people with mulberry bark soaked in water. Not feeling curious, he smiled and analyzed in a low voice, "Xue Rongguang is Wang's confidant. Those government servants and helpers you saw are probably all lackeys raised by the Wang family. Fortunately, you ran to my house yesterday, otherwise, other There’s really no place to hide you!”
"I, I didn't mean to run here!" As if he had been exposed in a lie, Lei Wanchun immediately blushed.
"Big brother can think of my little sister at a critical moment, but it's too late for her to be happy!" Mrs. Guo Guo obviously misunderstood Lei Wanchun's words, smiled and comforted her softly. "Don't worry, you can recover at my house. I sent someone yesterday I've checked secretly, and no one nearby should have seen you escaping into my house. Even if you are discovered, don't be afraid. What they are plotting must be shady. So no matter how much they hear, it has scared them into confusion at this moment."
"Humph, people who dare to hurt me!" She gritted her teeth and frowned slightly, "They are really tired of living. Big brother is worried that he can't catch them. This time, didn't they come to the door themselves? "
'Yeah, I almost forgot that you are Yang Guozhong's sister.' Lei Wanchun smiled and thought silently in his heart. He has never been a person who is good at strategy, but he escaped in a confused way last night, but he escaped in the right place. Yang Guozhong and Li Linfu were evenly matched. Wang Jingzhao Yin happened to be Li Linfu's confidant. He inadvertently overheard the plot of Wang Wen, Wang's younger brother, and then fled into the house of Mrs. Guo Guo, which was equivalent to killing Wang Jing. The information about the brothers was directly delivered to Yang Guozhong.
Therefore, it doesn't matter how much or what he heard last night. Even who he is, whether he is alive or dead, has nothing to do with the overall situation. Yang Guozhong only needs to hint that the person who sneaked into Xue's house last night was assigned by him, which is enough to force him to The Wang brothers did not dare to act rashly. Once the Wang brothers retreated, it was equivalent to breaking one of Li Linfu's arms. No matter whether he lost or won the previous fight, after putting aside these few talents, the situation in the capital has completely tilted towards Yang Guozhong. .
However, becoming a chess piece was definitely not what he wanted. This fierce battle in the capital originally had nothing to do with him. In his eyes, Yang Guozhong and Li Linfu were all the same. But he accidentally got involved and became more and more involved. The sinking gets deeper and deeper, and everything is out of control.
Thinking of this, Lei Wanchun sat up from the bed with difficulty, ignoring the dizzying pain in his shoulders, and said with a smile: "I feel relieved when you say that. I haven't returned home all night. At this moment, Mr. Zhang must be Worried about my safety. I have to go back to see him quickly to prevent him from looking for me everywhere!"
After saying that, she lifted up the boots with one hand, bent down and tried to put them on her feet. Mrs. Guo Guo was stunned, and the smile on her face slowly solidified. "If eldest brother doesn't like it, I don't have to tell you what I said today, my brother." !" As if begging, she squatted down and reached out to hold the back of Lei Wanchun's hand.
Lei Wanchun's arm immediately trembled, and then he let her hold it down stiffly, "You'd better inform Mr. Yang as soon as possible. Wang is so ruthless that he doesn't dare to break into your mansion during the day. He secretly sends people in at night, and you can't guard against it.
.I’m not blaming you, I really have to go back!”
Mrs. Guo Guo sighed and wanted to explain a few more words, but finally said nothing. She just stood up slowly, exited the door, called in a few maids, and helped Lei Wanchun change clothes and put on boots.
The clothes on his body were all newly changed, including the underwear. No matter how slow Lei Wanchun reacted, he found that the texture of the clothes was very different from what he had worn before. It was Tianzhu cotton that had only become popular in the capital in recent years.
It is much thinner and softer than Gebu and linen, and it does not have the unique coldness of silk. This set of underwear alone is enough for him to spend all his income for the whole year. Of course, he can return to his old business of robbing
Except for the rich helping the poor.
The maids moved very slowly, and stopped several times to peek at Madam Guo Guo's face. However, no matter how slow they were, the clothes would still be worn out. Madam Guo Guo refused to say anything, so they could only help Lei Wanchun put on her clothes.
Get on the outermost cloak, take the sword you carry with you, and tie it around your waist.
"This!" Lei Wanchun grabbed the sword with one hand, slowly took it off, and handed it to Mrs. Guo Guo with a smile, "I'll give it to you. It's made by a famous artist, and it's very sharp. If you need my help in the future,
No matter where I am, if you ask someone to come over with a sword, I will definitely rush to you!"
"Well!" Mrs. Guo Guo took the sword and held it tightly in her hand. Because she used too much force, her five fingers suddenly lost their blood. It hurt a little. She hadn't felt this hurt in many years. But she knew that she couldn't keep it.
.The obsession and madness last night was just a dream. After waking up from the dream, life must continue. He is Lei Wanchun, and he is the wife of Guo State.
Seeing the silent look of the other party, Lei Wanchun felt numb all the time. He wanted to say a few words to comfort, or to tell Yang Yuyao that in his eyes, she was a very good woman. But he found that all the words
Either it's too pale, or it's too easy to misunderstand.
Let's not say more. Lei Wanchun nodded, said goodbye to the host with a smile, and then strode out. He walked through the corridor covered with maple leaves, walked through the winding corridor, walked through the second door, and walked past the screen wall.
.Yang Yuyao followed him silently, silently seeing him off, silently watching him climb onto the horse's back with difficulty and loosen the reins.
"Be careful!" Finally, she opened her mouth and made a very low voice. Unknowingly, tears were streaming down her face.
"Be careful!" Lei Wanchun actually heard it and turned around on horseback, with the sun behind him all at once. "If something happens, send someone to find me with a sword. Anything will do.
."
After that, he knelt on his horse's belly and galloped away along the street covered with maple leaves.
The autumn wind blows up the fallen leaves, flying them one after another, blocking people's sight. In Chang'an, which is as beautiful as a dream, who is awake in the dream?
Note 1: Before the Tang Dynasty, cotton was not the mainstream clothing in China. However, Indian cotton was considered a luxury product because of its long nap and fine softness.
