Yu Wensheng's feet touched the ground lightly, and he rushed to the door, and then he rushed into the rain curtain.
The Hua family brothers and all the guards all stood up and drew their swords, but they saw that the other party had already rushed out, and they could faintly see the side face of the woman in the man's arms. It was dreamlike and beautiful under the candlelight.
This scene just passed by in a flash. The two of them had already broken through the rain curtain. Before the guards guarding the outside could react, the two of them had already climbed onto the maroon horse tied at the door. With a cold light, they cut the rope with a knife and the horse Speeding away into the rain.
Hua Shifeng quickly walked to the place where the two of them had been, picked up the girdle from the ground, and his eyes suddenly froze when he saw the dragon pattern embroidered inside, "Emperor Liao?"
Princess Xiyue, who was lying on the step, suddenly sat up in panic, "What did you say?"
"Your Royal Highness, this is the special brocade material of the Liao Kingdom's palace, with the name of the Liao Emperor engraved inside." Hua Shifeng stepped forward and presented the girdle.
Princess Xiyue opened her mouth in surprise and took it carefully. When she saw the inside of the girdle, she was startled and her face turned red. "I asked just now..." Thinking of this, she bit her red lips lightly, and then It's a cluster of eyebrows. "Did Emperor Liao just hold a woman in his arms?"
The Hua family brothers looked at each other and all agreed.
Princess Xiyue squeezed the girdle tightly, tears hanging from the corners of her eyes.
At this moment, Su Yin and Yu Wensheng were galloping with their cloaks on, and soon they had entered the city. When they arrived at the side gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Su Yin jumped off the horse, while Yu Wensheng waved his cloak in front of him. At this moment His whole body was soaked to the skin, but Su Yin, who was nestled in his arms, was not wet except for the slightly damp bottom of his robe.
"Go, you will see me again in a few days." With a chuckle, Yu Wensheng galloped on his horse and disappeared from Su Yin's eyes in a moment.
Su Yin stood under the eaves and looked at his back. She frowned for a while and said, "You act like I really want to see you." After that, he turned around and went back to the mansion.
In the palace, the slanting golden dragon eaves are even brighter and dazzling under the lights. Yuan Wenxuan is sitting in the main hall. Below him are civil servants on the left and generals on the right. They are arranged in a row, surrounded by singing and dancing.
Today's celebration banquet was originally supposed to be held outside the palace, but unexpectedly it turned dark and it started to rain heavily, so it had no choice but to be held inside the inner palace.
only……
"Captain Su hasn't arrived yet?" Yuan Wenxuan turned his head, and the eunuch at the side quickly walked up.
"Your Majesty, we haven't arrived yet."
Yuan Wenxuan suddenly frowned. Could something have happened? On this rainy day, Su Ziyin should have arrived long ago, but there has been no news. If he was unable to come due to something, he should have handed over a note first or ordered someone to inform him. yes.
Above the main hall, the third shortest row on the right was so empty that it was a bit dazzling.
At this moment, Su Xiang was sitting quietly at the head of the left row, pouring himself a drink.
"Your Majesty!" A bearded man stood up from the fifth table in the right row, "I heard that Su Ziyin, the son of Prime Minister Su, is a versatile man in both civil and military affairs. He has been promoted from a third-class bodyguard to a third-class captain in less than a month after entering the capital. He will return to the capital at the end of the day. I planned to see it with my own eyes, but why didn’t he come to the banquet?”
This man is in his forties, with a fierce face, a wide forehead and a narrow face, and a full beard. His face is somewhat rough and weather-beaten. His identity is General Situ's younger brother. His surname is Situ, and his last name is "Yong". He has been guarding the border of Youzhou for more than 20 years. This time he returns to Beijing with King Dingbei to receive the reward. This is the first time he has returned home in 20 years.
