Chapter 8 protect the short
Chapter 8 protect the short
The sun will turn its back on the mountains, and there is still a glimmer of light in the sky.
Jing Zhao ran to the team leader to excuse that he was not feeling well and wanted to go back to rest early. Although he received a few blank stares, he finally succeeded in persuading him to leave early.
He didn't ask for leave because he didn't think it was necessary. He went out for a few hours and came back immediately.
Jing Zhao went back to the dormitory, took off his armor, changed into very unremarkable civilian clothes, and slipped quietly to a palace gate on the side.
He looked at the few unfamiliar faces at the gate of the palace, and walked forward.
"Brother!" Jing Zhao picked out a man who seemed to be the boss, approached him and took out a big money bag.
Jing Zhao didn't try to hide it, all the guards who were close could see it, and at a glance they knew it was a heavy money bag.
The eyes of the people next to him looked straight, but the elder brother pretended to be calm and asked: "Little brother, do you want to help?"
Jing Zhao smiled, and then frowned again: "My mother is seriously ill, I am in a hurry to go back and have a look, my younger brother, the salary I have saved in the palace for the past few years is here, elder brother, look... just for convenience, let my younger brother go out? "
When the man heard this, his face showed embarrassment, Jing Zhao said again: "Just two hours, never stay overnight, come back in the dark."
He looked at the guards around him, pleading eyes appeared in his eyes, the few around him couldn't bear it long ago, and began to whisper to the elder brother to accept.
If you don't take good money, are you blind?
The eldest brother nodded in agreement, and Jing Zhao conveniently stuffed the money bag into his hand.
But that person is afraid that he is really a big brother, so he wants to show his big brother demeanor to the younger brothers.I saw him open the money bag, took out a piece, and pretended to be generous and said: "Brother, everyone is on the job, since Lingtang is seriously ill, you should keep the money yourself, go find a doctor."
Jing Zhao looked at the broken silver in the man's hand, took it expressionlessly, then thanked him and walked out, he really didn't want to put on a smiling face anymore.
After he left, the guards at the palace gate immediately discussed how to spend the unexpected money.Just as they were chatting, one of them stopped talking as if he had seen a ghost when he saw the person walking towards them.
Yu Lie watched in the dark for a long time, wondering how Jing Zhao would go out without asking for leave, so he followed.
Jing Zhao has only been in the palace for a few days, and he doesn't even know a few people, let alone establish any contacts.Looking at the palace gates, Jing Zhao naturally didn't know them.
Seeing him spend so much money to buy a release, Yu Lie is not worth it for him.
How hard it is for a little assassin to earn money, just look at Jing Zhao's soft hair, which is obviously malnourished.
Thinking of this, Yu Lie frowned, appeared and walked towards those people.
Unfortunately, these people had a grudge against him.
"Why are you here?" The man who claimed to be the big brother just now was obviously a little scared, and his hands holding the money bag were trembling.
Yu Lie looked at him, "I've grown up, don't bully me, instead bullying Xiaobing?"
"Which eye of yours saw me bullying him? He obediently put the money in my hands, voluntarily! Do you understand?" He and the few people around him were exactly when Yulie first entered the palace. Chang Yan gave Yu Lie his power, but was severely humiliated by the anti-general, and his face was disgraced in the army.
From then on, when they saw Yu Lie, they all walked with their tails between their legs.
Yu Lie snorted, "Give me the purse, it shouldn't be yours."
"I..." The eldest brother clutched the purse he just got and refused to let go, why was he so unlucky today to be hit by this plague god.
"You want to be beaten up by me?" Yu Lie actually didn't want to make a move at all, so he was in trouble.
He released his aura, and the terrifying murderous aura pressed down on several people through his fifth-level Jin Xuanqi.The eldest brother trembled, hurriedly donated the purse tremblingly, and begged Yu Lie to leave quickly.
Yu Lie's goal was achieved, he suppressed his murderous intent, held the money bag in his hand, and finally warned: "Don't say a single word about today's affairs."
Yu Lie walked away, looked down at the money bag, the tattered ones were obviously worn out or discarded by Jing Zhao, he weighed them, and found that there was quite a lot of money in it, a child's money is really generous.
When I go back, Yulie will continue to be on duty, and I will not be on duty until Xushi, so I will go back and rest.As soon as he entered the courtyard, Yu Lie saw Jing Zhao. He waved to Jing Zhao and told him to come out.
After Jing Zhao came back, he was in a good mood. Not only was he praised by the ten elders, but more importantly, those annoying gate guards who came back did not provoke him, otherwise he would have to beat them up.
"Why are you looking for me?" Jing Zhao asked.
Yu Lie took him to a small path outside the courtyard and stopped. Everyone else was in the courtyard, but no one disturbed him outside.
He turned around and threw the purse at Jing Zhao, the action was too sudden, Jing Zhao hurriedly took it with a frightened expression on his face.
"You're so timid, you're startled." Yu Lie looked at him amusedly, and suddenly his face froze, feeling that the words sounded familiar, "Wait a minute, you..."
He looked at Jing Zhao carefully, trying to figure out what, "The time I went back to the house of the tavern surnamed Zhang at Dongjiekou, I followed three stupid people who were smoking, did you?"
"Uh... yes." Jing Zhao was a bit reluctant to admit it after hearing Yu Lie's evaluation, "I happened to be chatting with someone in Pofengtang that night, and then someone came in and said you were looking for help, so I recommended myself .”
Yu Lie completely remembered, one of the three people was short that day, compared to his figure, it was Jing Zhao, Yu Lie sternly said: "If I don't want to wake up, you don't want to talk about it, right?"
"No! Really not!" Jing Zhao urgently wanted to explain, but he didn't know how to say it.
He just felt that he had just met Yu Lie, so he took the initiative to talk about it, and he was suspected of being close.More importantly, he didn't do much that night, so he was really embarrassed to claim credit.
"I didn't behave well that day, and you said it just now, so I didn't want to take the initiative to say it, lest you get angry." Jing Zhao didn't dare to look into Yu Lie's eyes, feeling palpitations.
Yu Lie sighed, "Have you brought all the account books that I asked you to bring back that day?"
Jing Zhao nodded again and again: "Of course I have done what you ordered."
"Yeah." Yu Lie turned sideways and stopped looking at him, "You put away the money bag, don't give money to that kind of person in the future."
"Okay." Jing Zhao lowered his head and pinched the money bag. The money would return to him intact, which made him feel like he was dreaming.
He quietly raised his eyes to see that Yu Lie would actually help him get back the purse, which was very different from the rumored Mrs. Ruxi.He thought it would be very difficult to get along with Yulie, but now he was moved by Yulie. This kind of emotion was something he never thought of before.
Perhaps, the expectations are too low, the easier it is to satisfy.
"From now on, you have to report everything to me." Yu Lie turned to look at him.
"it is good."
"You will be the messenger between me and the ten elders from now on. Although it is not troublesome for the guards to go out of the palace, if you go out often, it will attract attention. There is a secret passage in the palace. I will take you there some other day."
"..." Jing Zhao almost couldn't hold back the swearing, he covered his mouth with his hands, and exclaimed under his own hands, "There is such a good place!"
Yu Lie looked into his shining eyes and said, "This is a heavy responsibility, don't let me down."
Jing Zhao was ecstatic for a moment. Being entrusted with a heavy responsibility by Yu Lie, does it mean that he can completely trust himself.
"I will do this job well!"
……
The next day, unfortunately, just after the lunch break, Nan Jiyang's summoned maid appeared in the East Seventeenth Courtyard.
The others walked with their heads down, but Jing Zhao was a little curious, and raised his head high and looked ahead.
Everyone walked into Qingfeng Garden with ease, Nan Jiyang was swinging on the swing, two servants pushed him behind him, every time he swung him very high, he laughed loudly: "It's cool!"
As usual, the East Seventeenth Team waited quietly, Nan Jiyang said to the servants while swinging: "Why haven't the things I asked you to bring come?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of people trotted over. When they passed by the guards, Jing Zhao looked up quietly, and saw that they were carrying various musical instruments in their hands, including qin, zither, sheng, flute and chime bells, and others He couldn't even pronounce his name.
Nan Jiyang stopped, sat on the swing and said to them: "This king is in a good mood today, and I want to listen to the sound of the zither to add to the fun."
A group of elders had never touched these things, and the guards roared inwardly, this would kill them!
The team leader moved forward anxiously, "Your Highness, there is no one in the East Seventeenth Team who is proficient in music, and I hope the Highness will drop the blame!"
Nan Jiyang snorted, "Then you come first, come here, give him the pipa, let him play, if he can't play well, just kneel here."
The team leader bite the bullet and flicked a few times, and blood stains appeared on his fingers immediately. The pipa strings were extremely painful to play, and he didn't know the correct fingering, so he was immediately injured by the power of the pipa.
Jing Zhao was a little aggrieved, and Yu Lie pressed his arm to tell him not to make trouble.
"Keep playing." Nan Jiyang closed his eyes and shook the swing again.
The captain didn't dare to be negligent, and continued to pluck the strings reluctantly. The sound came out, but it was extremely messy, and it was torture to listen to it, but Nan Jiyang enjoyed it very much.
Jing Zhao glanced secretly, the captain's hands were trembling slightly, his fingers were already skinned, it was too horrible to look at.
He couldn't help but feel displeased with this Highness, such a way of humiliating people is too low, and he despises it.
Nan Jiyang opened his eyes, "Okay, change someone."
He swept over to the East [-]th team and fixed his eyes on a person. He often won the first place in various competitions and won many rewards for himself. "You, come out, Yu Lie."
When Jing Zhao heard Nan Jiyang's roll call, his heart ached, but he couldn't do anything.
Yu Lie didn't panic either, he still maintained his usual style in every gesture.He walked out of the team calmly, saluted Nan Jiyang, and then went to get the pipa in the captain's hand.
"Wait," Nan Jiyang said, "just play the piano."
"Yes." Yu Lie walked to the piano table set up by the maids, and sat down calmly.
Jing Zhao looked at him, Yu Lie was wearing ordinary clothes at this time, without the cold iron armor.
Although he could tell at a glance that he was a warrior, Yu Lie didn't feel any disobedience when he was sitting in front of the piano case.
Even with the luxuriant flowers and leaves and fluttering willows behind him, this picture looks particularly pleasant, as if Yu Lie is a professional musician.
Jing Zhao suddenly thought, Yu Lie can play the piccolo, so is it easy to play the piano?
He looked at Yu Lie's slender fingers resting lightly on the strings, and felt a little expectation.
"Ding-bah!"
Facts have proved that Jing Zhao was wrong, and Yu Lie made a sound that made people want to scold her.
Not only him, the anticipation of everyone present was shattered.
The author has something to say:
Yu Lie: I let you down :)
