Chapter 20 Going Out of the City

Li Daguang silk and satin shop.

Lin Yi heard the boss crackling, the boss finally pointed to Tu Ya's portrait and said: "I have seen one of them here, but they came together as three people, and those three people came to my place to work for nothing, I see Seeing that he is still a boy who can work, he agreed, but he is the person you are looking for, Mr. Lin!" Climbing up to Yuan Pinghou just for one action, the boss will not use all his skills to talk about the bottom line.

Lin Yi ordered someone to fetch the portraits of Cen Li and Wang Bing, and shook them away. The boss stared at him for a long time with wide eyes: "I don't think I've seen this person before, but he doesn't seem to have it. Lord Hou, the two people who were with that person They all look extremely ugly... Hey! I remembered this, this young man who looked like a banished fairy came to Cao Min yesterday evening to buy a set of clothes, but Cao Min saw that the clothes he bought were a bit small for his figure, Cao Min guessed That should have been bought for someone else."

Lin Yi pointed to Cen Li's portrait and said, "Please take a look again, is there really no such person among the three?"

Pointing to Tu Ya's portrait, the boss said firmly, "No, Cao Min guarantees it! Besides this, the other two face like evil spirits, how can there be a pair of people with such a logo painted on them!"

Without a word, Lin Yi threw up his sleeves and left, got on his horse and left the complacent boss behind and galloped towards the gate of the city.

In several small villages outside the city, Wang Bing saw that the strong men passing by rolled up their trousers and went to work in the fields, and suddenly thought of the broken thatched hut in Dongshan, and now he would never go back.

What made his heart hurt even more was Sima Ye's wine, which he didn't even have time to bring out during his escape that night.

"Young master? Young master?!" Xiao Liu shook Wang Bing's hand, "You're out of the city, do you still want to go to Jiankang?"

Shangyu was too close to Shanyin, so Wang Bing felt that it was inappropriate, and when he went north to Jiankang, he just said casually that Wang Bing didn't dare to do such a thing as sheep entering the tiger's mouth.

Wang Bing came back to touch Xiao Liu's head, looked at Cen Li and asked, "Do you have somewhere to go?"

Cen Li kept lifting the curtain of the car and looked out the window, he was stunned for a while before answering: "Pingyang."

After a while, Cen Li added: "Contain the bones. My father's."

Cen Li is the prince of the Xiongnu. The king knows about it. King Zuotuqi was the title of Shan Yu's son during the nomadic period of the Xiongnu.But if it is a prince, the current prince of the Chu Kingdom who is dominated by Jie people has not yet been born, so Wang Bing estimates that he is the prince who was said to have died in the fire in the former Zhao Kingdom, or counting up the prince who is said to have only been in office for a month. .

Pingyang, that is really much farther than going to Jiankang.

Wang Bing wisely didn't ask any more questions, the two of them were really gentlemen, they never asked too much about each other's personal affairs, this was actually the only tacit understanding between them.

However, Xiao Liu felt melancholy like a literati who was as big as a little ghost, and even lost his guard against Cen Li at the beginning. He went to pull Cen Li's sleeve to comfort him: "I'm dead too, but I'm very happy now." Joy, and he will rest in peace for my joy."

Cen Li glanced at Wang Bing's expressionless face, turned his head away and continued to look at the scenery.

Xiao Liu got bored, then lay back on Wang Bing's lap, closed his eyes with a face full of enjoyment, and tightly held a corner of his clothes, fearing that the elegant and gentle person would disappear when he woke up.

Tu Ya handed the rope to another person, stuck his head in and muttered a few words about the Huns, and Cen Lidu answered absently.

The carriage had already started to drive towards the southeast, Wang Bing thought to himself: In fact, it is not impossible to go further south, take a boat from Kuaiji to Dongyang County, and then find a clean Yalin to continue to live a leisurely and comfortable life in seclusion.

Going any further would not be the way to go north to Pingyang, but Cen Li had no intention of getting out of the car, Tu Ya poked his head in and muttered several times, Cen Li finally didn't bother to talk to him, and simply pretended to be deaf.

The carriage turned a corner and entered the mountain road, the carriage bumped a bit, and Wang Bing's leg was so numb, Xiao Liu finally opened his eyes, and after smelling the faint sandalwood fragrance, he felt relieved, and the little bird gently rubbed against Wang Bing's leg Rub away.

Wang Bing was a ticklish person, so he couldn't help laughing and patted Xiao Liu on the head, Cen Li changed the blind man from pretending to be deaf and hummed softly.

The spring is bright and beautiful, the blue waves are endless, the early birds are scrambling to find worms to eat, and the fish jump out of the water and flick their tails.

Even the corner of Cen Li's mouth curved slightly.

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long. They were at the back of the convoy. First, there was a chaotic sound of horseshoes behind them. Someone shouted: "Stop! General Baoding is here! Who dares not follow!"

Cen Li couldn't laugh anymore.

How could those five-year-old coachmen know what a general is? Just hearing the word general made them lose their grip on the rope. Cen Li poked his head out of the car window and looked back, almost tearing off the window.

Where there are any generals, they are all bandits.

When Wang Bing heard that it was Liu Pi, his face paled instantly with fright, but soon he discovered that those chaotic hooves of different severity were not well-trained soldiers and horses of the imperial court at all. It is said that General Baoding came to Shanyin, and he didn't know who General Baoding was, so he used the name of General Baoding to rob outside the city.

The drivers in the front were so frightened that they lost their souls and reined in their horses. Wang Bing didn't want to be followed by a tail, so Cen Li ordered Tu Ya to stop. After being interrupted, Xiao Liu also realized the seriousness of the situation and opened the curtain look back.

More than a dozen bearded men in tattered green cloth clothes surrounded them, all of them looked fierce and wielded swords like monkeys, and one of them led the way: "I am General Baoding. This general suspects that you are smuggling official salt, and you are still not here. Get out of the car quickly! This general is not just playing around with this knife, do you hear me!"

Xiao Liu was so frightened that he shrunk his head into the car and was knocked down. He cried in his heart and cried for his father and mother. This is not the first time he went to Mayi County to deliver goods. He is very familiar with this road. Why is he so unlucky today? Catch up!

"The general asked you to get out of the carriage, are you all deaf?" The head surrounded Wang Bing's carriage and slashed at Wang Bing's carriage a few times, then sneezed and snot mixed with saliva, "The general is an official of the imperial court. Do you dare to obey?"

The ten strong men were originally here to escort them. If the opponent was a bandit, it would be a good thing that they could use their swords. But when they heard that they were generals of the imperial court, they dared not even draw their swords because of their slavish nature.

Cen Li sneered, and got out of the car first, followed by Tu Ya, not three steps away from him, Wang Bing was protecting Xiao Liu, and the strong men also pushed and shoved.

"My lord, we never smuggled official salt, and we would never dare to lend our courage."

"Yes, yes, how dare the grassroots do such a crime of beheading, general... Do you think there is some misunderstanding?"

"General Mingcha, we are all cannibals, how dare we...Hey, slow down, General, please..."

The bandit leader walked sideways to the side of the cart. The bandit leader looked up to the sky and laughed, and the rest of his subordinates also laughed. It can destroy the corpses and wipe out the traces, in case someone escapes and spreads the story of General Baoding's robbery, which will lead to a murderous disaster.If it wasn't for the bottom of the rice vat in the cottage, they wouldn't have dared to rob under the name of "General Baoding" if they added a few more bears' hearts and leopards' courage.

The leader saw that the faces of those people were all green, so he got off the horse, picked the most unpleasant eye finger, and his subordinates hurriedly pushed and dragged them to the leader, and the leader looked at the person in front of him with a dusty temperament and a face like a ghost , I don't know why I just look at it and feel uncomfortable, and it's just a mouthful when I go up.

Xiao Liu cried out in surprise, tears streaming down his face, and when Wang Bing was dragged past, he pushed Xiao Liu away. Xiao Liu had never seen such a scene before, and immediately knelt down and begged for mercy: "General, please don't let me go!" Hit him, don't hit him... We didn't smuggle official salt."

Tu Ya stood behind Cen Li in an irrelevant manner, unable to see his expression.Cen Li didn't move and he didn't move, those strong men were secretly happy that it wasn't their mouths that twitched, so none of them dared to step forward.

The bandit leader saw that these people shrank their heads, and became more courageous. He was about to raise his knife to take the head of the other man, when there was another sound of horseshoes.

The sound of horseshoes was like thunder and rolling, and the severity was consistent and orderly.

Wang Bing was heartbroken, and turned to look at Cen Li, before finishing his sentence: "Shut up..."
