Chapter 221: I'm looking up, above the royal road
The first thing that catches your eye is a row of five long brass trumpets, two of whom carry the mouthpieces, one of whom holds the brass pipes, and the last of whom puffs out his cheeks and blows vigorously behind him. Behind the bronze trumpets www.biquge.info the pen and the court, there were ten neat rows of horsemen on horses, with purple silk reins of one color, looking like undulating jujube red clouds. Behind the clouds, a large group of eunuchs in red robes galloped out of the towering Deyang Hall with three carriages covered in red silk wrapped in red silk.
Qiu Ming was also infected by this solemn atmosphere, and did not dare to speak loudly, so he only leaned into the ear of Huangfu Mingyue and asked, "The Son of Heaven is alone, why do you want to take three carriages?" ”
Huangfu Mingyue was itchy by his breath, and he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, so he had to tilt his head sideways and say, "Haven't you heard of Bo Langsha stabbing Qin?" The chariot was driven by one officer and two officers, so that the assassin could not know exactly where the Son of Heaven was. ”
Assassin? Only then did Qiu Ming notice that there were many onlookers on both sides of the royal road, they may have been passing on the royal road, they had just been driven away by the forbidden army, or they may have come from afar to visit the honor guard of the Son of Heaven, but at this time they were all surrounded on both sides of the royal road, raising their faces and looking at the car of the Son of Heaven with admiring eyes.
The car drove slowly, and the rattle of the wheels over the bluestone ground seemed to weigh on everyone's hearts, and they all lowered their heads heavily. A black donkey seemed to be unable to bear the weight of this history, and suddenly swept out of the roadside, broke into the middle of the royal road, and shouted at the slowly approaching horse.
Everyone was stunned, and the young woman on the back of the donkey held her young daughter in her arms and looked back at her husband at a loss. The man immediately rushed out of the crowd and knelt in front of the horse ridden by the tiger and kowtowed: "The villain ......"
He only said two words, and then he heard a cold voice from the Tiger Ben army: "Thorn", and then saw the two nearest cavalrymen quickly stabbing Changge and stabbing him through. The speed was so fast that the man could barely feel the rapid loss of his life and strength, and just looked back at his wife and daughter with his eyes wide open.
Qiu Ming immediately heard that it was the Tiger Ben Zhonglang General Yuan Shu who gave the order, and couldn't help but scold: "The dog thief cares about people's lives, such a small people, just drive them away, why kill people?" ”
Huangfu Mingyue said: "You can't say that, colliding with the imperial driver, no matter Qin Xing and Han Law, it is a decisive decision, and who knows if he is an assassin?" Yuan Zhonglang can make decisions on the spot, and he is also capable. ”
Tyumen was furious, could it be that the life of the Son of Heaven was more valuable than other people's? Killing people on the street without asking a question like this, but everyone takes it for granted, is this a distortion of human nature or a degradation of morality? He was resentful in his heart, and was about to say more, when there was another turmoil in the field.
The young woman saw that her husband was stabbed through the cold, hurriedly got off the donkey and put the young girl on the ground, ran over a few steps and hugged the man in her arms, just cried a few words, Yuan Shu raised his hand, and said coldly: "Shoot", all the tiger horsemen opened their bows and arrows, and instantly shot the couple into an arrow stack.
All eyes were on the girl, who looked to be no more than two years old, wearing a floral cloth jacket and a pigtail on her head. Seeing the tragic death of her parents, the girl, although she did not know what had happened, instinctively began to cry, but the troubled black donkey fell silent, arching her with his nose, as if to silence her.
Yuan Shu's hand was raised again, and all the tiger riders took out a feather arrow from the quiver and put it on the string, and just when Yuan Shu was about to give the order again, a voice suddenly came from the carriage: "Stop."
Yuan Shu saluted to the carriage and said, "Wei", and made a gesture for the tiger rider to put away all the bows and arrows. At this time, the girl's cry became louder, and both people and horses began to feel uneasy, and it seemed that there was a strange atmosphere flowing on the royal road.
The same sound came from the carriage again: "Okay", and the driver began to move forward slowly, running over the bluestone ground, over the couple who were shot into a ball, over the black donkey who caused the accident, and over the girl. In front of the huge wheels of the house, everything on the road was as small as ants, as humble as dust, and Tyumen saw the girl lying on the road after being hit by the wheels, and then being crushed by the wheels, her little head shattered like a watermelon, and many red and white things splashed out, dragging out blood-red marks all the way.
Qiu Ming's eyes were split, and he pointed down and said, "That girl, is she also an assassin?" Huangfu Mingyue couldn't answer, so she had to mutter: "This kind of thing happens several times a month on the imperial road, and if you see it too much, you will get used to it." ”
By the time Tyumen came out of the Emperor's Mansion, the royal road had been cleaned up, and there was still a crowd of people and traffic, if it weren't for a white-haired old woman sitting on the ground and crying bitterly while burning paper money, no one would have known that three fresh lives had just disappeared in this square inch of land.
Originally, Qiu Ming was going to visit Situ Cui Lie as soon as he left here, but after what had just happened, he felt that he should calm down first, otherwise it would be difficult to guarantee that he would not make any rude moves.
Qiu Ming walked aimlessly in front of him, Bao Chu and Huang Zhong followed silently, and even Liao Hua drooped his head and seemed to be very depressed. Liao Hua has also been a yellow scarf for a year, which can be said to have killed countless people, but seeing a person's head suddenly burst in front of his eyes like today, he still feels cold, and even his legs are a little weak.
Qiu Ming shuttled through the crowd, as if he had a sense of being left alone, and when he was at a loss, he suddenly heard someone calling him, he looked around for a while, and saw Cao Cao standing on a platform and waving to himself.
Even in Luoyang City, which is full of glory, this building is too rich, the eaves of Biwa and Zhu are stacked on top of each other, and the carved beams and embroidered pillars are flying pavilions, if it weren't for the two big men who nodded at the door, Qiuming would almost think that this was a palace courtyard. Cao Cao personally went downstairs to greet Qiu Ming, and laughed: "The Cheng family is like a beautiful flower, how could you think of this Fangze Pavilion?" Could it be that I heard that Miss Ying'er combed it up today, and she specially came to win the first place? ”
Fang Ze Court? Is it a green house? Qiu Ming was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "I just passed by by accident, and I didn't come here intentionally, so I said goodbye." Cao Cao grabbed his sleeve: "The husband should be self-admiring, why should he be afraid?" Don't worry, I won't say what I know with Wen Ji, it's not too late for you to come up and have a drink. ”
Qiu Ming was forcibly held by him, and he was afraid that he would tear off his robe and lose his dignity, so he had to smile bitterly and go upstairs with him, but he saw that the wine and food on the table were messy, and several people sang and laughed during the banquet, only one of them could not sit upright and looked very majestic, and only swept Qiu Ming with a scrutinizing gaze, which was Yuan Shao Yuan Benchu.
