Rebirth was attacked by scum and stalked to death

Chapter 9

The light rain soon stopped, and Eunuch Zhong was cleaning outside the Hidden Dragon Hall, while the young eunuch with his hands on his hips panting out of breath, complained: "Eunuch Zhong, can't you let me rest today? "

"What's the rest, hurry up and sweep."

"You are old, and you escaped a catastrophe a few days ago. Those few people and I cleaned up the hidden dragon hall inside and out. I was so tired that I couldn't stand up straight! The emperor is really, how can you destroy the hidden dragon hall? So badly? I'll die of exhaustion if I do it again."

"Shut up!" Eunuch Zhong glared at him, "Be careful that walls have ears, if this word reaches the ears of the emperor, your life will be in danger."

The young eunuch's face turned pale immediately, he looked around in a panic, and finally took the broom to the side and cleaned it vigorously.

He had just swept the broom a few times when Emperor Wu walked in with a gloomy face. He hurriedly knelt down and shouted: "See you, Your Majesty!"

Emperor Wu's complexion was not good, and without saying a word, he walked directly into the hall. Eunuch Zhong had eyesight, and as soon as he entered, he stepped forward and closed the door.

After a while, there were several crashing sounds in the hall, and the sound lasted for a long time. The young eunuch's face turned white again. Seeing this, Eunuch Zhong patted him on the shoulder and said, "Go get ready."

The young eunuch had a bitter face, nodded, turned and left.

When all kinds of collisions in the hall stopped, the door of the hall was slowly opened, and Emperor Wu stood coldly in front of the door, his breath was disordered, his eyes were dull, Eunuch Zhong glanced behind him, the magnificent hall has become dilapidated.

There was a slight sound of water droplets, and Eunuch Zhong looked for the sound. It turned out that Emperor Wu's left hand was injured and was dripping blood. He was startled, and hurriedly shouted: "Doctor Xuan!"

Emperor Wu raised his eyes to look at Eunuch Zhong, his eyes were very confused, he asked: "Eunuch Zhong, should I..."

The voice came to an abrupt end here, and Eunuch Zhong opened his pupils in shock, as if seeing some shocking scene, he shouted in disbelief, "Your Majesty?"

"Eunuch Zhong, how long have you been by my side?"

"18."

"In your opinion, how do I treat He Chuiyi?"

Eunuch Zhong came to his senses, he lowered his head, and replied respectfully: "In my slave's view, the emperor almost asks for Eunuch He."

"Anything you ask for?" Emperor Wu said silently, "Actually, he never asked me for anything. The only thing he asked was for me to let him go."

"emperor……"

"He said he doesn't know me, doesn't remember me, but why does he remember Zhong Xiaoshi?"

Eunuch Zhong breathed heavily, then hurriedly fell to his knees, and exclaimed, "Xiaoshi?"

Emperor Wu sneered, "Do you think I will hurt him?"

"Zhong Xiaoshi is right, he has merit, he saved He Chuiyi's life." He raised the corners of his lips, but there was no smile on his face, "It was I who was wrong, and He Chuiyi was the one who was wrong."

"A disobedient shadow, what's the use of me?"

As the night darkened, the waiter at the inn brought a few more candles.

Zhong Xiaoshi sat in front of the Eight Immortals table in silence, breathing heavily, and looked at He Chuiyi who was leaning against the window with aggrieved eyes.

He Chuiyi leaned in front of the window comfortably, nodded slightly, folded his hands around his chest, and habitually held the dark red flute in his right hand, staring at the lights of thousands of houses on the street with an expression that could be called indifference.

After a long time, Zhong Xiaoshi asked: "Aren't you going to ask other questions?"

"I already know what I want to know." He Chuiyi said lightly.

"I didn't say anything!" Zhong Xiaoshi shouted helplessly.

"I don't know why you two met. I just heard from relatives in the palace that you have a very close relationship with the emperor. However, you are willing to stay in the palace, and you are also willing to leave a few days ago."

He Chuiyi frowned slightly, but said nothing.

"That's all I want to know."

He lowered his head and raised the corners of his lips silently, with an indescribable indifference in his smile.

The candlelight illuminated Zhong Xiaoshi's burning eyes, he looked straight at He Chuiyi, and said cautiously: "You still have injuries on your body, why don't you heal your injuries before you leave?"

"No, I'll leave tomorrow."

"Can't you stay a few more days?"

He Chuiyi smiled reassuringly, and said: "The emperor's attitude is uncertain, and he may let me go today or tomorrow. Since you know my identity, you should understand that my staying in Luozhou City will only do you harm. If your identity is exposed, neither you nor the Zhong family will survive."

"But……"

"I've made up my mind." He said this clearly, blocking the words that Zhong Xiaoshi wanted to keep.

Zhong Xiaoshi gritted his teeth suddenly, and his obscure expression appeared and disappeared under the jumping candlelight. He put his hands on his knees and clenched them into fists, as if trying to hold back something. After a moment, he asked : "Then can I find you in the future?"

He Chuiyi looked at him in surprise, then raised his eyebrows and smiled: "If you can find it."

"I will find you."

As the night darkened, a fierce horse drove out from the city gate and galloped towards the official road.

Soon, Emperor Wu received a personal letter from Luozhou City.

After reading the letter, he fell silent for a long time, his eyes were dim, and the bright candle light could not penetrate a single bit. His Highness, Eunuch Zhong, asked nervously, "Is this a letter from Luozhou Prefect's Mansion?"

Emperor Wu put the letter aside, and if there was nothing, he said "hmm".

"In the letter..."

Emperor Wu glanced at him, and just when Eunuch Zhong thought he would send him back, he suddenly said: "The letter said that He Chuiyi will leave Luozhou City tomorrow morning."

He sneered and said: "A trivial He Chuiyi can let the prefect's mansion deliver a letter to me in person? Eunuch Zhong, 'he' is quite courageous."

Eunuch Zhong was sweating profusely, knelt on the ground and shouted: "The emperor calm down."

Emperor Wu couldn't see any joy or anger in his eyes, and his tone was a bit playful: "Eunuch Zhong, your little nephew is very rare for He Chuiyi, and you can't keep him by yourself, so you want to use me to keep him? It's a pity, a pity, a pity He Chuiyi who doesn't remember anything, I don't need it."

Eunuch Zhong turned pale and said, "Your Majesty, how dare my little nephew..."

"Why didn't he dare?" Emperor Wu suddenly raised his voice, "How many letters has he written to He Chuiyi in the past two years? Do you think you don't know if you stop me?"

"He is a disabled person who dares to miss me? If you hadn't stopped his letter, I would have already sent him..."

The voice stopped here, Eunuch Zhong's face was as white as paper, his shoulders trembled, and he shouted: "Your Majesty."

Emperor Wu said with a stern expression: "But don't worry, I won't touch him until I catch him."

Tired of talking, he propped his forehead and waved his hand: "Back off."

Eunuch Zhong got up to leave and walked halfway when Emperor Wu suddenly called out: "Eunuch Zhong."

"The slave is here."

"Zhen," he faded the light from his eyes, and after a long pause, he said, "Should I let him go?"

After the Hidden Dragon Palace was destroyed not long ago, Eunuch Zhong vaguely understood something. He raised his head and said pointedly: "Your Majesty, there is a prime minister in the capital."

Emperor Wu didn't understand: "So what?"

"Your Majesty, since you came to the throne, you have only been out of the capital twice. The first time was three years ago, when you personally went to capture He Chuiyi, a member of the Wugu clan, and the other time was yesterday."

"Nowadays the Jin Dynasty is peaceful and prosperous, there is a prime minister inside the court, and there is General Ye An Bang outside the court. You should do what you want to do."

"What do I want to do? I just want to have no books..."

Serving Emperor Wu loyally for many years, this is the first time he cut off Emperor Wu's words: "Your Majesty, do you know that people's memory can be recovered? Even if it can't be recovered, he is still him. What's more, people like He Gonggong, I'm afraid my nephew will not be blessed."

Seeing the rare blankness on his face, Eunuch Zhong sighed heavily, cupped his hands and said, "Your servant will leave."

Leaving the Hidden Dragon Hall, seeing the messenger waiting for the prefect's mansion outside, Eunuch Zhong stepped forward and asked, "What's the shortest time for the return journey?"

The messenger was stunned for a moment, and replied: "Generally speaking, it takes an hour and a half. If the horsepower is enough, it should be reduced to an hour."

"Okay, I will send someone to give you the fastest horse. You must rush back to Luozhou City within an hour and tell Prefect Zhong that Luozhou will be closed from tomorrow. Only entry and no exit are allowed, and no one is exempt. .”

"In addition, the guards must be strengthened outside the city gate. As for the rest, I will send someone to contact Prefect Zhong."

"Yes!"

The night is getting thicker and darker, and the candlelight of the Hidden Dragon Hall is still bright even in the middle of the night.

He Chuiyi took a rest early that night, and the next morning, he got up and left at dawn.

As soon as he stepped out of the inn, Zhong Xiaoshi suddenly jumped out from behind the stone statue, and smiled triumphantly, "I guessed that you would go out early in the morning."

"..." He Chuiyi silently withdrew his retreating leg, "What are you doing here?"

"I'll see you off." He pouted behind his back, "No, this horse will see you off."

He Chuiyi sighed and said, "Let's go."

The two of them headed towards the city gate together, and when they reached the city gate, He Chuiyi stopped, turned around and said to Zhong Xiaoshi, "Send it here."

This time Zhong Xiaoshi didn't struggle too much, and nodded briskly: "Okay."

He put the rein in He Chuiyi's hand, and said with a dry smile, "Take care."

"Farewell."

He Chuiyi turned around and walked towards the city gate. At this moment, he found that there were extraordinarily many guards at the city gate today.

not only that!The guards outside the city gate are growing at a speed visible to the naked eye. He Cuiyi's heart sank and he walked into the gate. The guards holding halberds on both sides immediately stopped him and said sharply: "From today onwards, Luozhou City only needs to enter Don't come out."

as expected!He Chuiyi's heart sank to the bottom, and his eyes became sharp: "What if I have to go out?"

"Then I can only invite you to sit in the government office."

He Cuiyi's eyes darkened, and he touched the flute at his waist with his pale palm, "Then you can only offend."

He was about to pull down the flute when he was suddenly stopped, he frowned and looked at Zhong Xiaoshi winking at him.

"Are you stupid? The emperor finally showed mercy and let you get rid of this identity. Do you still want to throw yourself into a trap?

He Chuiyi's face turned cold, "I don't need him to be merciful."

He stared at Zhong Xiaoshi for a moment, then asked: "I remember, you are the son of the prefect?"

"Yes, yes." Zhong Xiaoshi felt guilty when he saw him, and murmured.

"Tell him to let me out."

Zhong Xiaoshi had a bitter face, "How can I..."

Before he finished speaking, there was a sound of horseshoes galloping outside the city gate, and when the man on horseback came into everyone's sight, the guards outside the city gate all knelt down and shouted: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live. "

He Cuiyi clenched his flute tightly to meet him, but Zhong Xiaoshi couldn't help but drag him into the dark alley, "Run!"

Emperor Wu rushed to the city gate first, and everyone looked behind him, but found that there was no one there.

Emperor Wu rushed from the capital to Luozhou city alone?

Although the distance between the two places is not far, it takes an hour and a half for Yu Ma to work!

He Chuiyi's face was extremely dark, he grabbed Zhong Xiaoshi's hand, "Why did you take me away?"

"An elbow can't twist a thigh, and there are not many people who can convince my father to seal the city. Didn't you just fall into his hands when you were discovered?"

The disgust between He Cuiyi's brows fell right into Zhong Xiaoshi's eyes, and he lowered his eyes, "It looks like you can't get out."

"I'll go to him and make it clear." He Chuiyi pushed him away and walked out, but Zhong Xiaoshi held him back and said, "It doesn't make any sense for you to go to him, you might as well hide for a while, I will find a way to send you off go out."

He Chuiyi refused without hesitation: "This is between me and him, it has nothing to do with you, you don't have to get involved. Get out of the way."

"Chuiyi! Do you want to be caught by him?"

"He alone can't catch me, get out of the way!"

The sound of galloping horseshoes resounded in the street. He Cuiyi passed him and walked out of the dark alley. When his eyes touched the purple and gold uniform, Zhong Xiaoshi behind him suddenly pulled him back, trapping him in his arms with his knees and arms .

"Don't go! I will tell him that you have left Luozhou City. If he finds out about you, I will commit the crime of deceiving the emperor." Urgent to understand.

The strange feeling when facing Emperor Wu quietly filled his heart, He Cuiyi frowned for a moment, Zhong Xiaoshi immediately let go of him and ran out of the dark alley, He Cuiyi reacted and wanted to catch up, but heard Emperor Wu's voice: " What about He Chuiyi?"

His voice was very hoarse, as if it had been torn after staying up all night, with a faint sense of danger.

"Go back to the emperor, he has already left." Zhong Xiaoshi knelt in front of the horse with his head down.

The foot He Cuiyi stepped out of stopped. He stood in the corner for a long time, and heard Emperor Wu say: "Zhong Xiaoshi, bullying the emperor is a serious crime that will be beheaded."

"I'll ask you again, where is He Chuiyi?"

"Go back to the emperor, he has already left."

He was in a hurry along the way, Emperor Wu's face was a little pale, he was panting with his thin lips slightly parted, like a fish out of water, struggling for the last time exhausted.

He Cuiyi frowned, hesitated for a moment, then walked towards the other side.

Now that Zhong Xiaoshi has been involved, he has no choice but to leave.

Emperor Wu unconsciously tightened his grip on the reins, stared at Zhong Xiaoshi's face, and said coldly: "Would you just watch him go? I don't believe it."

"He Chuiyi." He shouted loudly.

"I..." He paused, slowed his breathing, and continued: "I know you are nearby, if you come out on your own initiative, I will spare his life. I will count to three, one."

"two."

The quiet alleyway was still empty.

In the end, Emperor Wu's voice became trembling: "Three..."
