At the end of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 358 Hui'an Gate

Gao Bufan lived in Yuewang Mansion, but he didn't expect to stay for three days. Not only did he not see Yuewang Yang Tong, but even Yang Qingruo never came back, as if he had been forgotten, but Mr. Shi would come every day Hush and warm, so enthusiastic that even Gao Bufan felt a little embarrassed.

On the fourth morning, when Yang Qingruo hadn't come back, Gao Bufan became more and more uneasy. It was obvious that Qingruo had absolutely no chance of forgetting himself in the Yue Palace, and he must have been bound by something, and the situation was probably not good.

After Gao Bufan finished eating the exquisite breakfast served by the servants of the palace, he was exercising his fists and feet in the courtyard. Director Shi stepped in again on time, and said with a smile, "Good morning, Mr. Gao. Is today's breakfast to your liking?"

Gao Bufan frowned: "Butler Shi, tell me the truth, is Director Qing not in Luoyang City now?"

A trace of surprise flashed in Steward Shi's eyes: "How did Mr. Gao know?"

Gao Bufan's heart moved, it seemed that he had guessed correctly, if Qingruo was still in the city, it would be impossible not to come back to look for him for four consecutive days, he said lightly: "I'm just guessing, where is Director Qing now, please let me know! "

"This..." Steward Shi was hesitating, but Gao Bufan cupped his hands and said, "Since it is inconvenient for Steward Shi to tell you, I will take my leave!" After speaking, he walked outside the courtyard.

Butler Shi hurriedly reached out to stop her, and said with a smile: "Master Gao, please be safe, Miss Qing is temporarily out of town due to a mission, and will be back in two days!"

"What task?" Gao Bufan stared at Steward Shi with piercing eyes, and the latter was so stared at that his heart was a little hairy, he coughed lightly and said, "This matter was supposed to be kept secret, but it doesn't matter if we say it now. Yang Xuangan's army had already reached the east of Luoyang City a few days ago. The King of Yue ordered Hongce, the Prime Minister of Henan County, to lead the army to fight, but Hongce was defeated and defeated repeatedly. Go investigate."

Gao Bufan felt relieved when he heard the words, Qingruo's martial arts were not inferior to his own, and if she was in danger, as long as she wanted to escape, it would be difficult for anyone to stop her, so she cupped her fists and said, "Thank you for telling me, Steward Shi, I'm already in the palace I have been bothering you for many days, and I am deeply disturbed, so I will take my leave first.”

Although it is delicious and comfortable to live in Yuewang Mansion, it is almost like being in prison, it is more comfortable to live in an inn outside.

Seeing that Gao Bufan still insisted on leaving, Steward Shi couldn't help but look a little displeased and said, "Master Gao is leaving at this time, but I'm waiting too late?"

Gao Bufan shook his head and said: "Butler Shi is overthinking, I just have private matters to deal with, it's inconvenient to stay in the palace."

Steward Shi heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and said with a smile: "So that's the case. In fact, if Mr. Gao has something to do, he can enter and leave the palace at any time. I just need to say hello to the guards of the palace. Otherwise, Mr. Gao should continue to live here, so as not to be young." The girl came back and blamed my poor hospitality."

Gao Bufan was hesitating, when two guards from the palace strode in and said, "Butler Shi, my lord, please go to Hui'an Gate to meet Mr. Gao."

Steward Shi was stunned when he heard the words, but immediately smiled and said: "Fortunately, Mr. Gao didn't leave, otherwise the prince would have to have a good meal when he summoned him."

The two palace guards are very young, in their early twenties, tall and straight, with clear eyesight, each carrying a waist knife, full of blood in their bodies, obviously not weak in skill, they looked at Gao Bufan curiously, and cupped their hands Shi Li said: "My lord has summoned me, and I would like to ask Mr. Gao to come with us."

Gao Bufan nodded calmly, and left the Yue Palace with two guards from the palace. Someone had already brought the big green horse that was fostered in the palace to Gao Bufan, and hung the sword and bow on the victory hook.

Gao Bufan originally wondered why the King of Yue summoned him at Hui'an Gate, but when he saw that his mount and weapons had returned intact, he felt relieved. It was obvious that this summoning would definitely not be a grand feast.

"What do you call the two brothers?" Gao Bufan clasped his fists at the two guards who also got on their mounts after getting on their horses.

The two guards quickly replied: "Don't dare to be, I'm going to Su Dingtai (Wei Dazhong)!"

Gao Bufan's heart moved, and he asked, "Brother Su, do you know Qianniuwei Su Dingyue?"

Su Dingtai smiled and said, "It's my brother."

Gao Bufan suddenly said: "No wonder he looks a bit kind, and his name is similar, so he is Ding Yue's brother."

Su Dingyue was one of the eight Qianniuwei who survived the battle with Gao Bufan in Liaodong, and he is also a good friend of the same generation.

A trace of eagerness flashed in Su Dingtai's eyes, and he said sincerely: "My brother's letter is full of praise for Mr. Gao. Mr. Gao won many with less in Liaodong, invincible in all directions, and powerful. I have been fascinated by Mr. Gao for a long time. I didn't expect today To see the true face is really a blessing for three lives."

Gao Bufan smiled lightly and said, "The rumors are often exaggerated and untrue, so they are not enough to be believed."

Su Dingtai said solemnly: "Your Excellency Gao is humble, let alone other things, not long ago, Senior Talent alone subdued more than [-] cavalry from Yingyang Mansion in Zhuo County, and only led [-] cavalry into the enemy camp of the rebel army, destroying the enemy camp. Stone Machine, Broken Archery Tower, among thousands of troops, it is like entering an uninhabited land, and rescuing Fei Yuwei who is trapped in Liyang City, is simply a god!"

Another guard, Wei Dazhong, also admired and said: "No, Mr. Gao dared to break into the enemy line of ten thousand with only two hundred riders. He is a real hero. We don't feel excited just listening to it. Hehe, don't be afraid to say it directly. Now The soldiers and guards of the palace are all overwhelmed by Mr. Gao."

Gao Bufan sweated secretly, it seemed that this prodigal girl Qingruo must have "bragged" for herself in front of the King of Yue, so she had to say a few words of humility, and then, the three of them chatted and rode away to Hui'an Gate.

Gao Bufan was originally very talkative, with a good temper and no airs, and with Su Dingyue's relationship, the three of them quickly became acquainted. Summon the officer?"

Su Dingtai's expression suddenly became serious, and he said in a deep voice: "Pei Hengce, Prime Minister of Henan County, was defeated by Yang Xuangan, and the whole line was defeated. Now Yang Xuanzong has led [-] elite soldiers to the gate of Hui'an, and he probably wants to attack Hanjiacang. In order to break the food in the city, the King of Yue and Lord Fan, Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, are now inspecting the enemy's situation at the head of Hui'an Gate, and they have heard that Master Gao is both civil and military, brave and invincible, so they called to meet each other."

Gao Bufan nodded secretly when he heard the words, it seems that this Yue Wang who is less than ten years old is not bad, he has the appearance of a wise king, and dare to go to the top of the city to watch the battle at such a young age, his courage is commendable!
Su Dingtai and Wei Dazhong smiled and congratulated: "Congratulations, Mr. Gao. This trip will definitely be used by the King of Yue. With Mr. Gao's ability, the sky will go straight up, and it will be just around the corner."
