Changhe Sunset Yen

Chapter 31 Thirty-One

Wu Zhijing never thought that he would have such a deep relationship with the cage.

First, he was imprisoned in the prairie of the Westman for more than half a year, and now he is locked in an abandoned mansion.He couldn't help but wonder if he could set a record of a rich young master being imprisoned many times, maybe he could still be famous forever because of it?

Talking about the cause of the incident, Wu Zhijing and Xue Xiaowu galloped all the way back to the capital that day and night. When they arrived at the Wu Mansion, everything went smoothly.

The Wu family headed by Mrs. Wu embraced the young master with tears in their eyes when they saw the young master who had grown stronger.It has been five years since Wu Zhijing left Beijing at the age of 22.Things have changed in the past five years, and the young master never had a chance to return home to visit his relatives.

And the last scene before the young master and Prime Minister Wu parted was that he slapped the table and flicked his sleeves and broke up unhappy.When we saw each other again, the old man was already dying on the sickbed.

Wu Zhijing was very sad at that moment, for the first time he felt how ridiculous his actions were!How could he abandon his father and run away from home because of a moment of anger?How could it take so long to come back?

With red eyes, he knelt down in front of the sick bed, holding his old father's bony hand, and the warmth made Wu Zhijing feel a little relieved.The bitterness in my heart turned into water and burst out of my eyes.

He stroked Prime Minister Wu's hand, called his father, and said sorry, but in the end he broke down in tears and couldn't even kneel down.

From the corner of the old father's closed eyes, a hot tear fell, which became his last expression of emotion in this world.

Mourning songs rang out all night.

Throughout the whole night, Wu Zhijing never took a step away from his father.

But things changed on the day of the burial.

Prime Minister Wu's funeral was held with great vigor and vigor under the imperial decree of the little emperor, and the people of the whole capital sent each other for ten miles, sending the coffin all the way to the late emperor's mausoleum, which was quite respectable.

On the way back, Wu Zhijing was summoned by the little emperor and never came back.

This is a secluded other house in the northwest of the capital. It was bought by a close friend of the little emperor. No one would come here on weekdays. Only a few servants would come to clean the yard regularly. It was perfect as a place of confinement.

The little emperor's purpose is very simple, that is to send Wu Zhijing to the Western Man.He was determined to make that unequal treaty with the Western barbarians. After all, facing the world where he had not yet settled down, he really had no energy left to deal with the Western barbarians.

This is an imperial decree, Wu Zhijing has no right to refuse it, he can only obey it.Even though he had told the visitors countless times that the Ximan king had great ambitions and it was impossible for him to settle down in one corner, but who would listen?

In this well-fed but extremely boring place, Wu Zhijing was thinking about Xiao Xuan in Jianguan, while waiting to be sent to Ximan.

Xiao Yu...

Will there be a chance to escape along the way?Can I see Xiao Yu again?

Xiao Yu will know one day that he was sent to Ximan, will he lose control again because of himself?

Is that the end of the Westman?Or the end of the Central Plains?Or is it the end of the world?

No, no matter what the doomsday is, it must be Xiao Lin's doomsday!Never allow this to happen!

I have to find a way to explain my absence.

Thinking of this, Wu Zhijing sat down at the desk and prepared to write a letter to make Xiao Xuan go crazy because of him, it would be better to make Xiao Xuan despair of him.

Now that he has waded through this muddy water, he can no longer be alone.No matter how the Central Plains court is, at least he can't just watch the people he knows, the people who greet him with a smile every day are displaced because of the war.Maybe Wu Zhijing didn't understand this amount five years ago, but now he feels it deeply.I no longer want to see those brothers lying dead on the street, never want to hear the screams of women and children, never want to feel the pain of being scratched by sharp claws.

Sprinkling two sheets of paper, Wu Zhijing almost wiped away his tears while writing. In order to prevent tears from dripping on the paper, he wasted a lot of paper.

As the sun rose and the moon rose, the papers in the study were piled up on the floor, and Wu Zhijing lay down on the desk in frustration.

Isn't it just writing a letter of resignation?cry cry cry!cry?I, Young Master Wu, can afford it and let it go. Free and easy is my true nature!Crying and chirping, how decent is she like a big girl!It's all Xiao Yu's fault, if it wasn't for him, if it wasn't for him...

Thinking of this, he sobbed even harder.The two eyes are already comparable to red lanterns.

When he was crying, suddenly, a gust of wind blew the window open, Wu Zhijing couldn't help shivering when the cold wind entered the room, he looked up out of the window, it turned out to be a full moon night, which made him feel very melancholy again.

Um?Wait, there is noise outside, someone is knocking on the wall?

Wu Zhijing stood up, walked to the window and looked out.

In the quiet night, there is nothing special except for the wind blowing and the rustling of leaves.

He was about to close the window, and glanced down...

What the hell!

a pair of eyes!

He immediately let out a short exclamation.

The man stood up abruptly, jumped in from the window, covered Wu Zhijing's mouth, and shouted in a low voice, Shhh!don't bark!

Wu Zhijing nodded repeatedly, and when the hand was released, he slowly turned his head to look at the person, who was a head taller than him, probably even taller than Xiao Yu, dressed in night clothes, only his eyes were shining strangely in the dimness shine.

This appearance is really unbelievable!

Someone came and pulled off the black cloth covering his face, it was a, um, unkempt face.He introduced himself, don't be afraid, my name is Qin Shi, the son of Master Qin you know.

Wu Zhijing tilted his head, and an idea popped up out of nowhere, which made him ask straightforwardly, are you here to save me?

The big man named Qin Shi laughed three times, this is really interesting.Why didn't you suspect that I was here to kill you?

Wu Zhijing's answer was also very simple, you are Miss Qin's brother and Xiao Wu's uncle, how could you kill me?What's more, it doesn't look like your face.

Qin Shi laughed three times this time, and said briskly, yes, follow me.I prepared a fast horse for you, and fled the city overnight.

Wu Zhijing didn't respond immediately, but asked, why?

Qin Shi is a member of the imperial army, that is, a member of the little emperor. He, Wu Zhijing, is no longer representing an individual, but a symbol of the safety of a country. How can he just let him go?What happens after you let it go?

Qin Shi saw what Wu Zhijing was thinking, but he didn't explain in detail, he just said, don't worry about this, I will guarantee your Wu family with my head, and I will definitely keep them safe.

Wu Zhijing asked, what about the people in the Central Plains?

This question surprised Qin Shi a little, he didn't expect that the young master, who was pampered since childhood, would care about ordinary people.However, after being startled for a moment, he immediately said calmly and firmly, with me here, nothing will happen.

But this guarantee alone is not enough to convince Wu Zhijing, Qin Shi smiled helplessly, and said, I don’t have time to explain too much to you, there are still ten guards lying at the door, but please believe me, the capital will be fine, and I need you more now The place is west.Not here, not Westman.You gotta tell them, get ready for a fight.

The last four words were sonorous and forceful, and Wu Zhijing heard the determination in them. This determination was not so much from the court, but rather from Qin Shi himself.

The man in front of him made a big determination, which was crazy, but Wu Zhijing expressed his deep understanding and great approval.Blindly running away, then the Central Plains will always be suppressed by the Ximan, and must fight back!

Before leaving, Qin Shi emphasized again, believe me, no matter what happens, you must believe me!

Although it can be said that Wu Zhijing and Qin Shi met for the first time today, after just a few words of conversation, for some reason, there was a force in the other party that convinced him.

He jumped on his horse, raised his whip and disappeared into the northwest night.

There was an extra person behind the man in night clothes, and his loose court clothes did not match the night.

Qin Shitiao said with a smile, Master Su only has this set of clothes?

Su Xueer curled his lips very little. He looked in the direction where Wu Zhijing disappeared, sighed, and said, I thought General Qin would be more prudent in his actions.

Qin Shi didn't respond to this, but walked up to Su Xueer, bowed his hands decently, and imitated his eloquence, and asked Mr. Su to take care of the aftermath.

After saying this, Qin Shi raised his eyes and took a closer look at the expression on Su Xueer's face. After seeing the trace of annoyance he liked to see, he curled his lips as if he had earned it, turned his back and shook his hands, and swaggered left.

Leaving Su Xueer alone in front of this deserted house to accept the baptism of the strong wind, he couldn't help thinking, why did he come to this ghostly place tonight?Forget it, let's take a detour and go back.Tomorrow's morning will be lively and beautiful.

Tired after thinking about it, he frowned and left this place.
