The Jinling emperor capital is divided into two parts: the inner palace and the outer imperial city. The palace is under the responsibility of the emperor's imprisoned army. The current highest commander is the imperial army's command.
Compared with the singleness of Miyagi, the division of labor in the Imperial City is relatively more complicated.
Civil criminal cases, daily inspections, arrests of robbers, and fire and water rescue are the responsibilities of Jingzhao Yamen. The guards of city gates, night curfews, and crackdowns on arms fights are also under the patrol management. Jingzhao Yamen is regarded as a local government. Fate, the patrol battalion should have been controlled by the Ministry of Warfare, but for a long time, because its direct commander Ningguo Marquis was higher than the Ministry of Warlords, so it was super independent, and the Warriors did not dare to give any instructions to it.
In addition, there are several other imperial cities that have the right to private soldiers. After the Emperor Huizi ’s independence from the inner palace city, they were also included in the imperial city area. According to the system, three thousand soldiers were recruited, the prince ’s palace was 2,000, and the county ’s palace was 1,000. , Yipin Junhoufu eight hundred.
These privileged palaces will more or less affect the movement of the imperial city. It can be said that the forces of all parties are intertwined and messed up like a mess.
Xie Yu, who now also serves as the commander of the patrol battalion, collapsed, as if he had forcibly drawn one out of this mess, making the rest even more chaotic.
About one month after the empress dowager, Xie Yu walked out of the Nether Road of the Heavenly Prison and was ready to go to Qianzhou, an exile.
He was born into a family, a young man, a master of the army, and he has been confined to a military prince. In these years, once the ice has melted, the snow will be like a mirror of the moon, Huang Liang will wake up, and the wealth will disappear, and I will see a pair of shackles, just like other prisoners. , Escorted by two rough bureaucrats, not even a water and fire stick to bring one more than others.
Fortunately, the time when the exiles had set off was always early in the morning, and there were still few people on the streets. There were no crowds of people watching and ridicule, which made Xie Yu feel more comfortable.
In prison, he was not sentenced, nor even a routine trial. Although his case was finally determined by Emperor Liang, he had never seen the Supreme Master Liang since he was released from prison.
Of course, the food in the prison is far from the word "good", but it is a good thing to manage, and the common rules of prisoners who abused people privately in the prison are also eliminated because of the good management of the new penal department, so Xie Yu took the weight When flailing toward the south gate of Jinling City, he was in good health.
When the escorts and criminals arrived at the Nanyue Gate, it was exactly the time to open the city. The guards of the imperial city gate were naturally patrolling battalions. They did not notice at the beginning that they had to be messy, and the shackles stood on the side waiting for the heavy city gate. Who is the offender?
Later, one of the servants responsible for the met an acquaintance among the officers and soldiers in the city. After the two of them greeted each other, the servant gave him a frivolous glance and said with an unsuppressed volume: "Oh, look at your former boss. Oh, Grandpa, you did n’t dare to look up at him directly a few months ago. Now let ’s take a look. It ’s not a nose and two eyes. The waist is not as straight as you are!
As soon as this remark came out, there was a slight noise at the scene.
These low-level officers and soldiers have little chance of direct contact with Xie Yu. I usually remember that Xie Hou was like a person on the cloud. The person on the cloud is now falling into the quagmire and is standing in front of himself. It is impossible to come out of curiosity. of.
So dozens of officers and soldiers on duty soon came over most of them. Some people could not see clearly because of Xie Yu's hair and beard, and they were ready to reach out and look carefully.
"What are you doing? Give me back!" A heavy voice sounded at this moment, and the owner of the voice quickly squeezed it over, trying to disperse the crowd. "What's so good, the city gates are open, and I haven't got to the station yet. Go somewhere! "
"Seven Uncles," said one of the officers and men, with a long tone, "just opened the gate, and there weren't any ghosts, and the brothers wanted to see it, and didn't do anything."
"For you to be treated like this, are you happy?"
"I'm not committing anything. Why should I look at it? He is not a grandpa now. What are you doing to please him?"
Seven Uncle's face sank, and he gave a sip to the ground, scolding: "People should be pleased when they are Hou Ye, they should step on when they have committed something, what kind of man is snobbish eyes?"
In fact, most of the onlookers were only curious. They were naturally angry when they were scolded like this. Fortunately, these seven uncles were usually popular and had deep qualifications. Someone came out immediately to persuade the court, and finally there was no fight against the quarrel.
The two government officials watched as if watching a good show, and occasionally provoked two sentences. Xie Yu, who was originally causing confusion, quietly stepped aside, hiding her entire face behind her hair, and could not see the expression clearly.
The small team leader in charge of this group of officers and soldiers was just sitting on the sidelines and did not want to care. Well, in the army, when is it not a quarrel for three days and a quarrel for five days, it ’s okay not to fight or hurt people, not to mention the genius is bright now, the city gate is deserted Anyway, boredom, when everyone warms up.
But then he accidentally saw two servants whispering quietly to reveal a look of contempt, suddenly realized that there were outsiders present, which made people watch the joke of the patrol battalion officers and men, and the anger was soaring in his heart, grabbing a whip from the side and shaking There was a crunch, and he shouted loudly, "Shut up for Laozi!"
Although he was only a small boss, the county official was not as good as it was. Seeing him suddenly angry, everyone did not dare to violate it under surprise, and shut his mouth obediently.
Seeing the end of the good show, the two government officials did not continue to add firewood, but pushed Xie Yu out of the city gate.
Exiting the Nanyue gate is a loess avenue, which is very smooth and easy to walk.
Xie Yu Xiwu's people were not weak, and did not give the two escorts the opportunity to drive with sticks, and they did not go slow.
About half an hour later, it was already dawning. A servant stopped and wiped his sweat. He glanced back inadvertently, and saw dust flying. A wagon with a black cover surrounded by horses galloped out. Looking at the horses in the chariot, Also know that it is not ordinary people.
The three of them flashed to the side of the road together, and the two servants looked curiously, but Xie Yu turned his back, half hidden in the grass beside the road.
The carriage stopped at a distance of three people, the curtain of the car lifted, a plain-clothed young man jumped down, and put a large piece of silver in the hands of two servants. He whispered: "Come see you off, please go for convenience . "
Although he didn't know who the person was, he came to see Xie Yu off, and it must not be a traitor of the city. The two bureaucrats were very interesting. After a little laugh, they stood aside.
"Daddy ..." Xie Bi shuddered, her eyes red, "Are you all right?"
Xie Yu stood silently for a long while, and finally responded lightly: "Well."
Xie Bi opened his mouth again, seemingly not knowing what to say next, staying for a moment and looking back at the carriage.
Xie Yu suddenly understood that there were still people in the car, could not help but look at him.
In this situation, he did not know whether he wanted to see her again.
However, whether he wants to see or not, there is no choice at this moment.
The curtain of the car was lifted again, and Xiaoyang, a filial princess, slowly walked off the carriage.
What surprised Xie Yu was that Xiao Jingrui was the person who accompanied the weak princess.
When there were five or six steps away from Xie Yu, Xiao Jingrui let go of his mother, stopped at the same place and stopped walking.
Princess Longyang continued to walk in front of Xie Yu, staring at him quietly.
Xie Bi wanted his parents to say a few words alone, and realized that Jing Rui was in a sad mood now, so he walked over and pulled him farther away.
"Is it over?" After a long silence, Princess Chang asked the first sentence.
"No."
"What can I do for you?"
"No," Xie Yu shook his head. "You can't protect me in the capital, you are powerless even in the vast rivers and lakes."
Princess Yang's eyes were quiet and sad.
Although there have been a lot of tears lately, the color around the eyes has been yellow and wrinkles are deep, but the eye waves in the eyes still have the autumn water, and occasionally they are still faint.
"That Mr. Su ... sent someone to see me yesterday and told you to send me a letter."
"Faith?" Xie Yu froze for a moment, but when he thought of what the thoughtful and chilling Mei Changsu said, he dared not wait for his leisure.
"The man said, if you haven't written it yet, ask you to write it now, because there must be something deeper behind what you said. Write it down and give it to me, you can live." Princess Changyang is not Knowing the meaning of these words, she simply retelled them word by word.
Although this man stifled her youth love song, even though this man tried to murder her child, after all, there are more than 20 years of husband and wife, he is the father of her three children, she does not want to hear him miserable death The news, especially if the man himself doesn't want to die.
Xie Yu's eyes rolled, and suddenly he realized what Mei Changsu meant.
In addition to the secrets he had told Mei Changsu in person that day, there were still many secrets he knew that he did n’t want to say or could not tell at the moment.
This is a long way to go, and if Xia Jiang wants to kill him, he can't prevent it.
The only way to save life is to write down all the secrets in your heart and entrust them to Linyang for safekeeping. If you are okay, Linyang will not disclose his manuscript. If you die, the manuscript becomes an iron proof.
Xia Jiang is not a confused person, even if he knows it is better to let himself live, even if he is unreliable, he will not casually tell the secrets related to the common life and death of the two people. Instead, he died himself. Can't keep it.
This is indeed, indeed the last life-saving straw ...
Princess Changyang still looked at him quietly, waiting quietly for his decision, without any urging to persuade.
Xie Yu's heart suddenly became hot, and his eyes could not help getting wet.
Although it is many years of grievances, but the only one in the world who still dare to believe, and the only one who still dared to hold a glimmer of hope, is only here.
"Is there any pen and paper?" Xie Yu asked in a low voice after steadying his mind.
Princess Laiyang drew a long box from the wide robe sleeve, which contained ready-made pen and ink, and a long piece of plain silk.
"Write on this."
Xie Yu looked hesitantly at the two government offices in the distance, and immediately said to Linyang: "It doesn't matter, Mr. Su said, the more people know that you have written this thing, the better."
Xie Yu immediately understood it and hurriedly raised the pen.
Because he took the pail, Princess Laiyang spread the plain silk on the wooden pail, and when he wrote a few words, he helped him move the silk surface, but from the beginning to the end, the focus of her eyes did not fall on the writing for a moment.
After Xie Yu finished writing easily, she immediately folded up the plain silk and put it into an embroidered sac, pulled out a thin needle stuck on it, and sealed the sac tightly.
"Lin Yang ..."
"I won't show it to anyone you wrote, and I won't read it myself.
I do n’t want to know what you have done, because for me, I do n’t know anything is the best ...... "Princess Yang Yang put the embroidered sac in her arms, her eyes were dazzled," I am still preparing If you have some clothes, you can use them on the road. "
Xie Yu looked at her softly and wanted to touch her face. When she moved her hand, she immediately realized that she was trapped. She could only hold back and said quietly, "Let Yang, you take care, I will definitely come back and see you soon. your."
Princess Changyang's eyes were reddish, she turned her head and didn't answer the sentence, and raised her hand to signal Xie Bi over.
Xie Yu was busy concentrating and quickly said before his son was approaching: "Lin Yang, this embroidered bag, you must not give that Mei Changsu."
Princess Linyang glanced at him and nodded slightly: "You can rest assured that as long as you live, I will always carry this embroidered bag with me."
Just after the talk, Xie Bi came over.
He was thoughtful and understood when he showed his mother's gesture, so he walked around the carriage and took the baggage down and fastened Xie Yu to his back.
Xiao Jingrui is still standing far away, occasionally turning his eyes to look at it.
Xie Yu has never had a true father-son relationship with Xiao Jingrui. Princess Yang came to appreciate her son's heartache and sadness. Xie Bi has always been careful and careful, so no one has called Jing Rui over.
Everyone silently stared at each other for a while, or Xie Yu first said: "My journey is not short today, so let's break up.
Buter, take good care of your mother. "
Xie Bi responded and helped his mother back slowly.
Seeing the end of the farewell, the two bureaucrats approached with a stick.
Xie Yu didn't want to watch Linyang's carriage go away, so he turned around first, took a deep breath, and was preparing to take a step. Suddenly felt a chill hit, he could not help but shuddered, and looked up quickly, only to see the surrounding wild grass road No trace of beasts, thinking that I just felt wrong, shook his head hard.
At this moment, he heard Xie Bi taking a cold breath.
Looking up again, I saw that there was no one in front of him. The tall tall grass was separated by waves like a wave. Xia Dong wore a pure black dress and walked over slowly.
If it ’s just Xia Dong, it ’s not enough to make Xie Bi take a cold breath. What really surprises Xie Bi is the expression on Xia Dong ’s face. With an expression of hatred ...
