179 Descending the mountain


Chu Heng stood up and walked to the window, looking at the wind and snow outside: "I still have to go in person." ”"Girl, you're going into the city?"

Fu Bai pulled out Chu Heng's hand: "In this weather, although the city defense will be weaker, but girl, your face will still be recognized." ”Chu Heng frowned slightly, and his face was tangled: "I don't know this, but where is there any other way to do it now, Ji Cheng can't turn over the emperor in the capital, and now he must be sending people to secretly search for the suburbs of Beijing, and we can't hide for long on this Zigu Peak." ”"Then you tell me the address, and I'll go."

Fubai's face was firm."

No, in this kind of weather, we don't have decent warm clothes, Zigu Peak is covered by heavy snow, and your body is afraid of cold, and you can't go down the mountain.""

But I can't go down, girl, will you go down to the mountain again?""

I have never eaten my father's decoction, and my body is more cold-tolerant than ordinary people, even on cold days, I only wear a cloth clothes, and I will not freeze and numb as easily as ordinary people.""

But......"

Fluffy shook her head, her eyes looking out the window again, "Let's let Haru go." ”"But I won't agree to Haru's request, the Xin people are far away, and we're afraid we won't be able to get out at all.""

But the most urgent thing at the moment is to save the emperor, the emperor is gone, everything is over."

Fubai's voice was low: "We have the right to respond to Haru, and when the emperor is rescued, what to do at that time is not up to our own ......"

"You mean that after the emperor is rescued, we will regret it?"

”Chu Heng hurriedly shook his head: "People establish the world with sincerity, this is absolutely impossible." ”"But girl, there is no such thing in this world as a fish and a bear's paw."

Fu Bai frowned, and his face hated iron but not steel: "A person in a high position."

The last thing to talk about is the word sincerity, to establish the world with sincerity, that is the style of the great Confucian scholars, if you really want to have this style and bones, it is better not to get into the whirlpool of power as soon as possible, you have to let people eat and wipe the bones clean. ”After Fu Bai said this, Chu Heng's face was very ugly.But she knew that what Fubai said was telling the truth...... sighed.Chu Heng said: "Fubai, you have a sentence that is right, the most urgent thing now is to save the emperor."

Without the emperor, everything is over. ”Fu Bai nodded: "Then ......"

Chu Heng walked to the door of the hut, pushed the door and went out, Haru was holding a shovel to clear the snow in front of the hut.The white snow storm is shining in the sun, and the eyes of the people are painful.Chu Heng stood at the door for a long time until Haru threw the shovel down.Xiang Chu Heng walked over."

You help me rescue the emperor, and I will go with you to the Xin tribe."

Chu Heng looked at Halu's eyes and said word by word: "With my ability, although I can't help you win the position of the Xin clan."

It's okay to fight for some authority. ”"Fight for some authority?"

Haru snorted coldly and kicked the snow on the ground: "If I rescue your emperor, you will turn your face and deny people."

What can I do with you?

”"You must know the situation in the capital.It was you who rescued the emperor.We can't continue to hide in the capital, we can't even hide in the country anymore......"

Chu Heng paused, looking at Halu's eyes bright: "This is a mutually beneficial thing, your Xin clan can provide the emperor with hiding, and in return, we will do what we can to help you during our time in the Xin clan." ”"Do what you can for me......"

Haru still looked dissatisfied: "This sounds insincere." ”"Sincerity is not about saying, it is about doing."

Chu Heng stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the capital: "We are very short on time now, you go there and help me bring him out, if someone brings him out, naturally everything is easy to say." ”"What if people can't bring it out?"

Haru glared at Chu Heng.Chu Heng looked at Halu's eyes, Halu's eyes were slightly blue, and he couldn't even see it if he didn't look carefully."

If people can't bring it out, we don't need to mention our previous deal."

Chu Heng reached out and tore off a piece of brye from the hem of his clothes, turned around and opened the door into the house, and returned to the brazier.She used charcoal as a pen and drew a simple map on the canvas."

This place is in the north of the city, it is an underground tunnel, you go to this place to look for it, if the emperor is there, bring him out for me."

Chu Heng stuffed the cloth into Halu's hand: "I'll go down the mountain with you and wait for you outside the city." ”Haru sighed and put away the cloth: "Are you sure your emperor must be there?"

”"If he is trapped in the capital and can't come out, he will definitely be waiting for me there."

Chu Heng reached into his arms, took out a ceramic bottle, and poured out a pill: "This pill, you eat it." ”Seeing this, Haru's eyes widened, and he waved his hand again and again: "What are you kidding, you begging me to do something, and you want to feed me medicine?"

”"For the emperor's safety, you must eat."

Chu Heng sighed: "You and I meet in Pingshui, I have to guarantee that you will not see the emperor, and then I will send him to Jicheng when I turn around." ”"If you don't believe me, I won't go."

Haru's face turned pale, and he turned around and was about to walk out.But he had just taken two steps when his body suddenly couldn't move.Chu Heng walked slowly from behind him, she held the pill in her hand, opened Haru's mouth, and stuffed the pill inside.The pill melted in his mouth, and Haru only felt a stream of heat rushing down his esophagus, and the next second his hands and feet regained their autonomy."

What did you give me?"

Haru's whole person is not good, he has lived in the same house with Chu Heng for so many days, and at this moment he really felt terrible, and this fear made him reach out and pinch Chu Heng's neck.Chu Heng was used to being choked, but this time there was no panic on her face: "Halu, let me go." ”Not only did Haru not let go, but his hand became stronger: "Why couldn't I move just now?"

”"These questions, when you come back, I will answer them for you one by one, but if you kill me now, you can die with me."

Haru's eyes narrowed when he heard this, and he slowly let go of his hand.Chu Heng didn't even look at Halu again, she walked to the door and opened the door, and the cold wind outside the house blew in: "Let's go down the mountain." ”Halu looked at Chu Heng with bright eyes: "If you don't tell me what I'm eating, I'm not right in my heart." ”"It's just a medicine made of poisonous insects, and if you don't eat the antidote within three days, your intestines will rot."

Chu Heng stepped out of the house and stepped into the wind and snow."

Hell!"

Haru stretched out his hand to pull Chu Heng.But as soon as he stretched out his arm, his body suddenly disobeyed the call: "Why is this like this!"

What kind of sorcery are you?!

”"You want me to accompany you to the Xin Clan, isn't it my subtle skills that you value?"

Chu Heng turned his head to look at Halu, his face was pale and pale: "I just let you see it in advance, so that you don't have to save people this time." ”Haru snorted coldly when he heard this."

Girl."

Fu Bai walked out of the house, and she ran to Chu Heng's side in two steps: "Girl, I'll go down the mountain with you." ”Chu Heng shook his head: "This mountain road is difficult to walk. ”"But if you really rescue the emperor.I can't go back to Zigu Peak anymore......"

Fubai bit her lip.He also said: "When you get to the bottom of the mountain, Halu will go to save the emperor, and you will answer outside the city, girl."

I'm going to hire a carriage. ”"That is, this heavy snow covers the mountain, if we leave, it will be difficult to go up the mountain again.It's better to go straight to the Xin tribe after saving people. ”Haru stomped his feet, and the numbness in his hands and feet had not completely dissipated.But his mood was much better, thinking of Chu Heng's ability, he felt that it was worth it to suffer this crime."

Have you walked this mountain road?"

Chu Heng stretched out his hand and pointed to the way down the mountain, where there was a white snow.Nothing to see."

I can go......"

Fleur bit her lip."

That's good."

Chu Heng nodded: "Let's go." ”The snow was still falling, and at first the three of them could still say a few words to each other when they walked down the mountain.Later, the people did not even have the strength to speak.It's just walking with a stuffy head.Fortunately, going down the mountain is downwind, but it also uses the strength of the wind to catch the wind, but it is so, when it comes to the bottom of the mountain, Fubai's still frozen feet have lost their intuition."

This is numb below the knee?"

Chu Heng reached out and rubbed Fubai's calf.Fubai was sitting on a stone bench at the intersection of the small village at the bottom of the mountain at the moment, her face was embarrassed, and her feet could no longer walk: "Girl, this is a small village, Fubai is waiting for you in this village, don't delay your efforts because of Fubai." ”"I just thought about it, I'm afraid it won't be possible to drive on a snowy day."

Chu Heng looked at the direction of the small village: "Let Halu go to the city first, and I will go to the village with you to look for it, but there are objects such as sleds, which will be much easier to use than carriages at that time." ”"Sledding?"

Fubai's eyes lit up: "Yes, we just need to take the sleigh to the nearby town, and wait for the snow to stop before changing the carriage." ”Just as the two were talking, Halu had already turned back from the direction of the main road: "I just went to the official road to take a look, the snow is very thick, and several carriages are resting on the road, and I see that one of them is resplendent and brilliant, with the emblem of Prince Mu's mansion. ”"Prince Mu's Mansion, isn't that Bai Chiling's Palace?"

Fubai blinked: "Can you see who is in the car?"

”"It's like a woman.""

Could it be Bai Xi?"

Fu Bai turned his head to look at Chu Heng: "But Bai Xi should enter the palace to be the queen mother, and Bai Chiling shouldn't be in King Mu's mansion......"

"The national funeral is not over yet, Bai Chiling has not yet held the enthronement ceremony, and I guess that Bai Chiling should still be in King Mu's mansion......"

Chu Heng paused, and said: "This person Ji Cheng is extremely arrogant, this Bai Chiling is just a puppet he wants to support."

Ji Cheng will definitely dominate the palace, this Bai Chi Ling Xu has to wait for him to pass the enthronement ceremony before he can enter the palace......

"Probably not." ”Ha Lu looked at Chu Heng with a look of disapproval: "If you let this Bai Chiling stay in Prince Mu's mansion, and Ji Cheng occupies the palace by himself, I'm afraid those ministers won't agree." ”"Jicheng is forcing the palace to rebel, there is no impermeable wall in the world, I am afraid that the courtiers of some forces know about this."

Chu Heng raised his eyes and looked in the direction of the capital, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was cold: "At this time, Ji Cheng is waiting for someone to jump out against him, so he can seize the opportunity to eradicate dissidents, after all, the capital has been controlled by the Teng family's army, isn't it?"

What else is he afraid of?

”"If it's as ...... the girl said" Haru smacked his lips and looked disapproving: "Then why didn't Ji Cheng simply set himself up as the king, why did he give up this throne to Bai Chiling?"

”"Ji Cheng also has a father, the vine king......"

Chu Heng turned his head to look at Haru: "Besides, he let Bai Chiling be the emperor for a period of time, and then gave him the Zen position, isn't this reputation better than forcing the palace to rebel?"

”"This ......"

Haru blinked, not continuing to speak."

In short, you can pretend that you are a foot-walking merchant in the northern border, and make up some nonsense to deceive the trust of the people in the carriage of Prince Namu's mansion, and it will be much easier to enter and exit the city gate......"

Chu Heng reached out and took off the golden bracelet on Haru's hand, lowered his head and pulled the sapphire off his shoes, and finally looked up at Halu's head.Haru rolled his eyes, ripped off the string of pearls on his hat, and stuffed it to Chu Heng: "I'm going to help the driving of Prince Namu's mansion." ”Chu Heng nodded, and stuffed the gold, pearl, and sapphire in his hand into his arms.Haru returned to the official road and walked in the direction of the city gate, and when he passed by the carriage of Prince Mu's mansion, he saw that the coachman was laboriously pushing the carriage behind the carriage, but the carriage still did not move.Haru stepped forward and stretched out his hand to help the coachman push together: "Big family, right?"

”The coachman was stunned for a moment, raised his eyes to look at Haru, and looked vigilant: "What are you going to do?"

”"I'm a foot-walking merchant, look at your luxurious carriage, and the identity of the owner of the car must be extraordinary."

Haru paused, grinned, and showed eight big white teeth, very honest: "Go south and north, many friends and multiple roads." ”The coachman rolled his eyes, and the nobles had climbed to the official road."

It's useless for you to push the cart so much, this horse, I'm afraid of being tired when I encounter the wind and snow, you push the cart yourself, the horse doesn't have to work hard in front, this cart can't move.""

So what do you say?"

The coachman stopped pushing, he straightened up, beat his waist to look at Haru, and then reached out and took out a string of copper coins from his arms: "You help me push the cart, I will go to catch the cart, this cart has entered the city gate, this string of money is yours." ”"Derre!"

Haru stretched out his hand and took the money string: "Then you go to the front to fight the horse." ”The coachman turned to fight the horse, but the wind and snow grew heavier, and the horse was forced to take two steps before it began to move again.Haru pushed behind for a while, looked at the sky, and no one would want to enter the city today."

Why don't I help you fight the horse?"

Haru walked to the side of the carriage and looked at the coachman: "I used to work in the horse team, this snowy day is ......"

The coachman looked sideways at Haru, and was about to open his mouth to say something, the thick curtain of the carriage was suddenly lifted, and a hot air came out of the carriage, and then a maid poked her head out: "Madame said, let this little brother try." ”"But......" the coachman looked reluctant.At this moment, a woman's voice came from the carriage: "We have been trapped in this area for half an hour, if you can't enter the city today, you won't stay in Prince Mu's mansion in the future." ”(To be continued.) )
