Hidden Sky Light
Chapter 12: Shen Zi'an
Shen Ci sat back down again.
Chen Ling heard it just now, and looking at each other, the two of them stayed silent in the carriage following their previous appearance.
The weather in Fuyang in July was hot, and a delivery carriage like this had no windows. Sweat was hanging on Chen Ling's forehead, and his face was a little red because of the sweltering heat.
Shen Ci was used to the impermanence of the weather at the border of Licheng, but it was fine.
Also because of the sweltering heat, the curtains on the carriage have always been open to two points. First, it is convenient for ventilation in the carriage, and more importantly, it is convenient for Shen Ci to observe the situation outside the carriage.
A line of two carriages.
Yunniang, Zhu Ma and Anian were in one carriage, and the other was the carriage carrying goods from Shen Ci and Chen Ling. Yunniang's carriage was in the front, and Shen Ci and Chen Ling's carriage were in the back. You can see the garrison Shen Ci coming from the front.
Tang Wu walked at the end of the line on horseback, so the garrison was not from the direction of Quecheng, but from the direction of Yucheng.
would be more dangerous.
Shen Ci looked at Chen Ling, and before he could speak, Chen Ling replied softly, "I see, it's the garrison coming from Yucheng, be careful..."
Shen Ci didn't say anything, just resumed sitting with one knee bent, so that one arm just rested on the knee, which seemed to be lazy, but in fact, his hand was close to the boot, and the dagger was hidden in the boot. Act anytime.
In the carriage carrying the goods, it was already provoked, and Shen Ci sat in such an inconspicuous manner.
Chen Ling looked at him, Shen Ci in the past was also cautious, but now, he was so alert that he didn't need to react and made such a move.
Xu Shi also noticed that Chen Ling was looking at him, and Shen Ci said softly, "I'm used to it in Licheng, I don't know when Xirong people will appear, so I have to guard against..."
Chen Ling looked back.
In the past, Shen Ci was as gentle as jade, but now he is a little more determined, and his skin is a little wheatish.
Chen Ling remembered that Lao Qi died in Licheng.
The wind can't blow Licheng, and the imperial city can't hear the cry of Licheng's bones...
Chen Ling was lost for a while.
Since just now, Shen Ci has not made a sound, but quietly listened to the movements outside the carriage.
Because the garrison is from the direction of Yucheng, that is, behind them, Tang Wu and Xue Chao are negotiating at the same place.
Tang Wu and Xue Chao walked with him at the border, often mixing in the mutual markets of Xirong, Qiangya, and Yanhan, as well as various temporary teams, so they were very good at imitating the accent of a place. When the garrison was interrogating, the two responded with accents near Lizhen, and they didn't see any clues.
Soon, the garrison divided into two roads.
I went all the way to check Yunniang's carriage, and went all the way to see Shen Ci and Chen Ling.
It was probably Shen Ci and Chen Ling who were inconspicuous carriages pulling goods. The garrison didn't pay much attention to it, and it was too late. Yunniang's side had already started to respond.
Shen Ci looked at Chen Ling, there was not much nervous expression on Chen Ling's face.
The rare nervousness is also because this batch of forbidden troops came from the direction of Yucheng, not the direction of Quecheng.
As far as Chen Ling is concerned, the most tense and suffocating time had already passed yesterday, when he and Tan Jin passed by at the gate of Yucheng City, Chen Ling really couldn't even hear his own heartbeat. Hearing this, he held his breath, and a heart almost jumped out of his throat—that was the sense of oppression and tension brought by Tan Jin.
Chen Ling is the king, there are Shen Ci and Tang Wu, Xue Chao is there, and there are not many garrison around, Chen Ling is not nervous enough to show on his expression.
"Hey~ there are two more people here." The garrison who came to see the carriage stepped forward, glanced at the two of them, and called the garrison leader of the team.
The head of the garrison frowned obviously and looked at Yunniang and Zhu Ma, "Why don't you say there are still people in the carriage?"
Deliberately concealing it, it feels different.
Zhu Ma smiled apologetically, "It's all the guys in the store."
"Come down!" the garrison leader called, and the garrison who stepped forward to inspect also hurriedly shouted, "Fuck down!"
Shen Ci stopped and got off the carriage with Chen Ling one after another.
The two garrisoned troops entered and carefully searched the carriage. There was indeed only some embroidery and satin. Then the garrison leader sighed, "Head, nothing."
Immediately afterwards, he glanced at Chen Ling again, and continued to add, "Just two people, the car is stuffy and sweaty!"
The garrison leader looked at the portrait in his hand, and followed the man's words to Chen Ling and Shen Ci. The person he was looking for really wanted to escape here, and it was also on the carriage. Don't go in the wagon.
"Let's go~" The garrison leader closed the portrait.
Originally, it was unlikely that there were people in this place. I heard that people were in Yucheng, but this place was just routinely searched because the garrison was careful.
When the garrison leader spoke, Zhu Ma led Anian to the carriage.
Shen Ci was cautious and motioned Chen Ling to get on the carriage first. He dawdled a little and waited for A Nian to safely get on the carriage before leaving.
But at this moment, the leader of the garrison suddenly raised his brows and called out, "Wait!"
On the other hand, he reopened the portrait and looked at the person in the portrait.
He just ignored the child...
Seeing that the garrison leader's attention clearly began to focus on Anian, he opened his mouth to stop, then lowered his head twice and looked at the portrait in his hand for comparison. The saber moved to Anian's side, and both Chen Ling and Shen Ci suddenly became nervous!
As the garrison leader approached, Shen Ci glanced at Tang Wu and Xue Chao calmly.
Tang Wu and Xue Chao had a tacit understanding with Shen Ci, Shen Ci's eyes looked over, and the two quickly understood.
The two of them had figured out that this small group of 15 people in the garrison were all here. Although there are only three of them, they are all guards by Shen Ci's side. They deal with the brave and skilled Xirong garrison all the year round. It is not difficult for three people to kill fifteen garrison troops. Mother and mother were not injured.
In addition, people can't run away and let the wind leak.
In an extreme amount of time, the three made eye contact and confirmed their next move.
And the garrison leader just said, "What's your name?"
Zhu Ma is holding A Nian.
A Nian blinked, but did not make a sound.
The man behind the garrison leader leaned forward and whispered, "Head, this is a girl, and the portrait is a boy~"
When she came out this morning, Niang Yun changed the little girl's skirt for A Nian.
Because A Nian is still young and has a beautiful face, even if he puts on a girl's clothes, even if he looks closely, he still feels that there is nothing out of the ordinary.
Yun Niang didn't know why the other party suddenly noticed A Nian.
The garrison leader glanced at the people behind him. The people behind him quickly shut up and stopped talking. The garrison leader looked at Anian again, "What's your name?"
After the question, he suddenly drew his saber, deliberately to scare Ah Nian.
He wanted to hear the boy speak.
Ah Nian was a little frightened, but hid behind Yun Niang and didn't speak.
He wanted to hear the child's accent, and also, startled to see if he was speaking a boy or a girl, but the other party didn't say anything.
Yun Niang was a little annoyed, "This military lord, my niece is mute and can't speak, why should the military lord scare a child?"
The accents of Shen Ci and several people can still be hidden, but the accents of children cannot be changed.
Ah Nian could only be silent.
When he left Lizhen this morning, Chen Ling explained it, and Ah Nian remembered it all, so even if he was frightened just now, Ah Nian didn't cry or scream, but just hid behind Yun Niang in red.
Chen Ling clenched her fingertips. Just now, she really saw that the garrison leader drew a third of the knife! But Ah Nian was sensible and obedient enough to remember all her instructions.
But Tang Wu and Xue Chao almost made a move just now. It was under Shen Ciling's eyes that Tang Wu and Xue Chao couldn't hold back and didn't move.
Shen Ci often brings people into Xirong, which is very common.
A more powerful garrison is someone who will cheat and investigate by surprise.
The other party may not have recognized A Nian, just now Shen Ci has been staring attentively. Whenever the other party makes a move, he has time to pounce, but until the end, it is not appropriate to conflict...
If you want to bypass Fuyang County and go to Pingnan, you will definitely encounter many such things along the way.
They are, and so is the prince, and more.
Seeing that Anian really had nothing to investigate here, the garrison leader's gaze fell on Yun Niang again.
Just now, Niang Yun was clearly intimidated by herself, so she had the right words to speak to him.
The leader of the garrison stepped forward and glanced at Yun Niang more vaguely, "Little lady is quite temperamental~"
As soon as this sentence came out, Shen Ci, Tang Wu, and Xue Chao all paused, obviously hearing the meaning of the side.
The surrounding garrison all bowed their heads and laughed, because they were looking at other people's girls.
Chen Ling raised her brows slightly, she didn't expect the situation to turn to this place suddenly, and Zhu Ma quickly stepped forward, took out the money from her sleeve, and put it into the hands of the garrison beside the garrison leader, "My wife said. Well, this is to honor the officials and have a drink."
The garrison received the money and looked at the garrison leader again.
Seeing that the garrison leader's eyes were still on Yun Niang, the garrison tickled the corner of his mouth and said with a smile, "There is a lot of fire in July, let's put it out first, and then it's not too late to be filial..."
The surroundings burst into laughter.
Yunniang was afraid of causing trouble, so she tried her best not to say a word, but someone had already stepped forward to pull Yunniang's clothes, and Zhu Ma stopped her, "All the military lords are misunderstandings, misunderstandings!"
These bastards...
Chen Ling was annoyed in his heart, but saw Shen Ci holding her behind him.
This scene is familiar...
Even though Chen Ling couldn't see his face and side clearly, he knew what Shen Ci was going to do from Shen Ci's back and movements.
Yunniang is Lao Qi's never-before-seen wife.
Lao Qi died in battle, and Shen Ci would not watch others humiliate Yun Niang.
Chen Ling knew it well and could guess what was about to happen.
And Shen Ci's eyes were looking at A Nian.
Anian also looked at Shen Ci, then nodded nervously.
Shen Ci confirmed that he understood and understood.
Shen Ci finally looked at Tang Wu and Xue Chao, and the two narrowed their eyes knowingly. In the roar of laughter around, Tang Wu suddenly got his hands on it, and directly reached out and turned over the garrison buckle that was pulling Yun Niang's clothes on the ground. The dagger was now, directly inserted into the back of the garrison, and the speed was so fast that the near side did not react at all!
The dagger in Xue Chao's hand was obvious, and he immediately pressed a person to the carriage, and the dagger cut through his throat!
As for Shen Ci, he had already pinned down the two garrison troops beside the previous garrison leader, and with the saber hand in his hand raised the knife and dropped the two, he immediately fought with the nearby garrison leader. . The leader of the garrison was tall and burly, and had significantly more combat experience than the rest of the people. Although he was prepared to resign, he quickly reacted and signed up.
The rest of the people around suddenly came back to their senses, something happened!
But in the blink of an eye, seven people have died!
It's seven!
There were fifteen of them in total, and the other party was only three of them. Seeing that seven of them were killed in an instant, it was not a terror in the hearts of several people!
After the sneak attack, it is not as easy as before.
Tang Wu and the three scuffled in one place, Xue Chao wanted to protect Yunniang and Zhu Ma, but A Nian and Shen Ci had just confirmed their eyes, and immediately got under the carriage while taking advantage of the chaos!
Uncle Shen told him last night that if there was chaos at the carriage, when Uncle Shen looked at him, winking at him was a sign that he would get under the carriage as soon as possible to protect himself.
Just now, Uncle Shen winked at him!
Ah Nian didn't know why, but he didn't panic at all, and did exactly what Uncle Shen did!
Just like when Uncle Shen rescued him and let him count around his neck, Ah Nian obeyed...
A Nian trusts Shen Ci very much, so the others don't even think about it!
It was also possible for A Nian to hide under the bottom of the carriage. Tang Wu, Shen Ci and Xue Chao didn't need to take care of him. Xue Chao was able to protect Yun Niang and Zhu Ma while facing the two garrisoned troops.
Tang Wu is much more flexible!
Most of the rest of the people were dealt with by Tang Wu, including those who ran away on horseback when the situation was not good, Tang Wuyue got on his horse and went to chase.
And Shen Ci and the garrison leader scuffled together, this person is very difficult to deal with, he should also be someone who has killed at the border, and there are two garrison beside Shen Ci, Shen Ci is still caring for Chen Ling's safety, but by Shen Ci was eye-catching, and no one around noticed Chen Ling, but Chen Ling was safe.
When Xue Chao solved the last two people on his side, when he turned back, he saw that Shen Ci finally took the saber and killed the garrison leader and another person, and went to see another person behind Shen Ci.
"General!" Xue Chao panicked!
Shen Ci just turned his head, but he didn't have time to withdraw his hand. Seeing that the knife behind him was about to stab him in the back, he saw the man fall on his knees.
Shen Ci and Xue Chao were in shock and didn't know what happened.
And Tang Wu also came back.
The man fell down slowly, only then did Shen Ci see that Chen Ling was standing there and stretched out his hand, and his hand was shaking slightly because he was panting.
And the fallen man had something like a wooden hairpin stuck on his back to his neck.
Not to mention Shen Ci, Tang Wu and Xue Chao were both startled, how do they see it... Why does His Majesty look like someone who is powerless...
Shen Ci also looked at Chen Ling. It was impossible for a wooden hairpin to hurt such a garrison. It was not a wooden hairpin, but a pocket dagger made of a wooden hairpin. Chen Ling had been carrying it with him for self-defense...
But the other party fell down directly, and didn't even resist at all!
Chen Ling said softly, "There is anesthesia on the dagger."
Tang Wu and Xue Chaocai both reacted.
Shen Ci looked at her, the tip of Chen Ling's nose was reddish, she should have been scared just now.
It was the other party who didn't expect that Chen Ling succeeded...
Shen Ci turned his eyes, "Clean up."
Tang Wu and Xue Chao should agree.
Chen Ling sighed in her heart. She was actually afraid. Although she was not as timid as before, she was also afraid of such a thing, but she just saw the man's knife looking at Shen Ci...
Chen Ling didn't look at Shen Ci anymore, but stepped forward and rushed towards Anian.
A Nian also happened to climb out from the bottom of the carriage, "Dad~ Uncle Shen just winked at me. We agreed to hide under the carriage when Uncle Shen blinked. It's safe."
After Ah Nian finished speaking, Chen Ling squatted down and hugged him.
Ah Nian is very sensible...
After a while, Tang Wu and Xue Chao will soon clear up the road. There are many robbers and refugees on this road, and it is easy to lose sight of the clues.
On one side, Niang Yun lowered her head and sighed, "It's delayed, and it almost puts you in deep danger."
Shen Ci said solemnly, "It has nothing to do with you, the troops in Yan Korea are all such people, it is a disaster!"
Chen Ling looked at Shen Ci, and Shen Ci frowned.
The border garrison is fighting outside and guarding the territory, and these garrisoned troops are ruining the common people.
Over the years, the prosperous times of Yan and Han have been eaten by these moths...
After getting on the carriage again, the carriage continued to go to Quecheng.
On the carriage, it seemed that they had gone through the twists and turns just now, and the two of them were silent for more time.
After a while, Shen Ci took out the wooden hairpin from his sleeve and returned it to her.
Chen Ling took it.
Shen Ci looked at her, "The acupuncture points are very accurate, the medicinal properties are exerted on the spot, and the other party can't move... When did you learn it?"
When he left the capital, even though Chen Ling was in the East Palace, he knew how to weigh the pros and cons, but Chen Ling did not know and dared not do these things.
In the past four years, Chen Ling has changed a lot.
Chen Ling seemed to have guessed what he was thinking, so he lowered his head and said calmly, "The position of the emperor has never been easy, you have left Beijing, I have to learn to protect myself, it will never be the same as before. Every now and then someone will save my life..."
Chen Ling didn't know how to say this sentence. Maybe it was because he had seen Shen Ci in danger before, or maybe it was today's scene, which was very similar to earlier...
She never thought that she would meet Shen Ci back one day.
But it had clearly been four years, and as soon as he came back, everything suddenly returned to earlier.
She doesn't understand either...
Shen Ci looked at her, especially her last sentence, if a blunt weapon slid through his heart.
When they are not in Beijing, both of them are changing.
Outside the carriage, the sound of the wheels rolled forward. After a long time, Shen Ci's emotions calmed down, and then he said softly, "You were in danger just now..."
Chen Ling was slightly surprised and stared at him.
Shen Ci continued, "This kind of pocket dagger can be used to protect yourself by surprise, but just now, if he hadn't completely ignored you, or if you stabbed you a little further, he would have turned back and took your life..."
Chen Ling froze, she didn't think about it.
She just saw that Shen Ci was going to have an accident, and that person resigned for Shen Ci!
She didn't think about anything...
Shen Ci took a deep breath and continued, "It's fine if he stabs me. In the battlefield, this stab is not fatal, and sometimes, in order to catch the enemy, he deliberately goes to meet this stab... But if he really opposes it. Come and stab you, I can only push you and block the knife for you, you and I will both be hurt... So, don't take risks next time."
Chen Ling looked back.
Shen Ci looked at her, seemed to think for a long time, but still said, "Are you afraid that I will get hurt."
"You think too much." Chen Ling lay down with his back against the satin behind him, turned to the other side, and said in a low voice, "It's not good for me if you are injured, I have to go to Pingnan County, and you also save your life. ."
is not to admit.
Shen Ci looked at her back, smiled slightly, and asked, "What else will your majesty do?"
Chen Ling's back froze and said sourly, "I don't know how to embroider my legs. It's not worth mentioning in front of you General Shen..."
The corners of Shen Ci's mouth raised slightly.
Right now, he looks very much like Chen Ling when he was a child, but he has more 'hostility' towards him than Chen Ling when he was a child.
Shen Ci lowered his eyes and smiled.
Chen Ling was annoyed, she deserved more of his leisure...
***
Around dusk, we finally arrived at Quecheng.
The rest of the way was smooth sailing, and there was no garrison encountered.
When they arrived in Quecheng, Yunniang asked someone to rent a garden in advance.
"Second brother, I haven't stayed in Quecheng for a long time. It's safe to rush back tonight." Yunniang said goodbye to Shen Ci.
"On that road?" Shen Ci was worried that he would encounter something like today...
Yunniang said, "Second brother, don't worry. With the embroidery workshop's business, it's safe to ask the guards to **** the guards. It's inconvenient to have Zhu Gongzi and son today."
Shen Ci said thoroughly, "Okay, when we're done, we'll come back to Lizhen to find you."
Yun Niang smiled, "Second brother, you and all of you have a safe journey."
Shen Ci looked at her and smiled, "Thank you, Mother Yun!~"
Yunniang slowly suppressed the smile on her face, and said seriously, "I want to thank the second brother and bring back Qi Zhao's clothes, so that I can set up a tomb for him, Yunniang is too late to thank you, these two days, it's just a small matter. "
Shen Ci said softly, "Lao Qi is because of me..."
Yunniang sighed, "Second brother is worrying too much, Qi Zhao always mentioned the second brother in front of me earlier, a scholar died for a confidant, he must be very happy that he can save the second brother, dying in battle is also protecting the family and the country. , no shame!"
Shen Ci nodded.
Yunniang smiled again, "Safe journey."
Beside her, A Nian also looked at her, "Miss Yun, you have a safe journey too."
Hearing this title, Yun Niang couldn't help laughing again, half squatted down, and said to him, "You too, young master, go home safely."
Anian nodded.
Just as Zhu Ma outside the garden turned back, "Mother Yun, you have found someone from the security guard, and you can go back overnight."
"Okay." After Yunniang finished speaking, Zhu Ma went to do some work.
When it was time to leave, Shen Ci said again, "Mother Yun, what happened in the past two days..."
Yunniang smiled, "I know that the population in the embroidery workshop is very tight, the second brother doesn't need to worry, the second brother wants to save the person, Yunniang knows that you should not ask."
Shen Ci laughed again.
Looking at the room behind him, Chen Ling and Tang Wu were in the room. They should have something to explain to Tang Wu. Shen Ci looked back at Yunniang and said, "He has something to do, so I'm afraid he won't be able to see you off..."
Yun Niang took the cone hat from Zhu and was about to open the garden.
The door creaked open, and Chen Ling and Tang Wu came out.
"Niang Yun." Chen Ling called.
"Young Master Zhu." Yunniang stopped.
Chen Ling stepped forward, "Thank you for taking care of me these two days."
Yunniang smiled, "See you again by fate."
Chen Ling nodded.
Yun Niang put on the cone hat, blessed the two of them, and then left the room.
Chen Ling said to Tang Wudao, "Go."
Tang Wu also left the garden.
Shen Ci knew that Chen Ling had ordered Tang Wu to do things, and he didn't have time to speak, but Chen Ling asked him, "Miss Yun is gone, why don't you send it?"
Shen Ci looked at her, "Showing your face at this time is asking for trouble."
Chen Ling asked again, "Where's Xue Chao?"
Shen Ci replied, "As soon as Yunniang leaves, there are only a few of us, let Xue Chao go first to find out how to go safely."
It was his turn to ask, "What did you ask Tang Wu to do?"
Before he knew it, the two were already very close, and Chen Ling looked up at him, "I also want to find some things for Tan Jin to do, if I run away outside, don't think about it any better, thinking that Jiangshan is so easy to win, I will. It's still early to be dragged into the water by him so easily~"
After Chen Ling finished speaking, she called out, "A Nian~"
A Nian stepped forward and held her hand, and Chen Ling led A Nian back to the house.
Shen Ci lowered his brows and smiled.
Suddenly, someone in the room called him, "Shen Zi'an!"
He was stunned, Shen Zi'an?
Someone called him Shen Ci earlier, but brother Zi'an was the first to call him Shen Zi'an...
When entering, Chen Ling looked at him, "A Nian wants you to bathe him."
