Chu Huan turned his head and saw several Hexi soldiers appeared in the courtyard, some with knives, some with crossbow arrows, aiming at the wall, Chu Huan frowned, and heard someone shout: "Don't do anything, It's our people."

Amidst the voice, Mao Renju has already rushed over.

The Hexi soldiers didn't put away their weapons immediately, Mao Renju was already facing the wall and said, "Hero Bamboo, what happened?"

Chu Huan hesitated, and finally jumped down from the wall. The Hexi soldiers all took a step back. At this time, they recognized that it was the bamboo hero from Peacock Terrace, and then put away their weapons. I'm really sorry, some of our brothers were on duty at night, passed by the backyard, and heard movement here, so we happened to arrive."

Chu Huan smiled slightly, looked at Mao Renju, and asked with a smile, "Why is Team Leader Mao here?"

The firewood house where Wu Shizhao was detained was in the backyard of the post station, while the house was in the front. It was a coincidence that Mao Renju arrived as soon as the incident happened here.

Mao Renju already said: "Miss, I have something to tell you. It's related to Zhu Xia. I went to the guest room, but I didn't see Zhu Xia. I learned that Zhu Xia came here, so I came here to look for it."

"I see."

Mao Renju turned his head and saw that the back window of the firewood house was shattered, he frowned slightly, approached, lightly leaped into the firewood house, came out soon, with a serious face, and said: "Hero Bamboo, Wu Shizhao is dead. "

Chu Huan sighed, "He died at an inappropriate time."

Several Hexi soldiers looked at each other, Mao Renju said to them: "The prisoner inside is the bandit we caught on the way. I wanted to take him to Hexi to hand over to the government, but now he died suddenly."

A soldier from Hexi said: "We were ordered to greet Peacock Terrace. After entering Hexi, we will be responsible for guarding your security. But if we fail to do our duty, we will be executed by military law. It's just that we are outside Hexi, but it is not within our scope of responsibility." He made it very clear about his scope of duties, and he seemed to be worried that what happened to Peacock Terrace would involve them, and even if a person died, they didn't take it to heart.

"There is work, there is work." Mao Renju cupped his hands and said: "Go and rest first, we will handle this matter ourselves."

The Hexi soldiers didn't say much, and led the people away.

After everyone had left, Mao Renju came forward and asked, "Hero Bamboo, Wu Shizhao...?"

"I was just about to hunt down the assassin." Chu Huan sighed, "It's just that the Hexi soldiers suddenly appeared, and I'm afraid they have already escaped far."

"Assassins?" Mao Renju frowned and said, "Hero Bamboo is saying that there are assassins who assassinated Wu Shizhao?"

"Exactly." Chu Huan said, "Leader Mao, in your opinion, who does Wu Shizhao have a grudge against and will come to assassinate him at this time?"

Mao Renju was taken aback, frowned, pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I really don't know who Wu Shizhao has any personal grudges against, but it's really strange that he wants to follow here to assassinate."

Chu Huan stared at Mao Renju for a second, then suddenly asked, "Leader Mao just said he wanted to find me, what's the matter?"

Mao Renju hurriedly said: "It's the girl's order. This time the bamboo hero drew his sword to help, which saved the Peacock Terrace from a catastrophe. So the girl has a suggestion, and I hope the bamboo hero will consider it."

"Oh?"

Mao Renju said: "Young lady said, if Hero Bamboo can stay in Peacock Terrace, it's a dream, but if Hero Bamboo doesn't agree, I don't know if Hero can stay with Peacock Terrace for a while, and return together after Hexi is over. Jinling? The girl said, as long as the bamboo hero agrees, there will be a big thank you."

Chu Huan laughed and said, "Miss Jinlingque wants me to stay in Peacock Terrace?"

Mao Renju nodded and said: "That's true, I don't know what the bamboo hero wants?"

"I can't promise this yet." Chu Huan said with a smile: "I'm used to being a loose person. Peacock Terrace has its own rules, but I just don't follow the rules."

Mao Renju was a little disappointed and said: "If this is the case, I'm afraid the girl will be disappointed."

"However, Miss Jinling Que proposed to return to Jinling together, I can still consider it." Chu Huan said with a smile: "It's nothing special to meet a friend in Hexi."

Mao Renju said with a smile: "The Peacock Tower will perform skills for the emperor at that time, and the Tiangong will be built in Hexi. It will be the Qionglou Yuyu. If the estimate is correct, the birthday ceremony for offering sacrifices to heaven should be held in the Tiangong. Would Bamboo Hero be interested in seeing it?"

"Tiangong?" Chu Huan said with a smile: "It must be extremely luxurious to use 10,000+ civilians and consume countless silver and silk."

Mao Renju said: "Ordinary people, of course, can't go in. I'm afraid some dignitaries are not qualified to enter, but this time Bamboo Hero has the opportunity to enter the Heavenly Palace with us. If Bamboo Hero is interested, the girl is willing." Bringing Bamboo Hero into Tiangong to see it with his own eyes is a small reward for Bamboo Hero."

Chu Huan thought for a while before saying, "Since that's the case, I'd really like to take a look when there is such an opportunity."

"If that's the case, then I'll report back to the girl like this." Mao Renju smiled and said, "Hero Bamboo, it's already late, you should rest first, I will lead someone to deal with Wu Shizhao's body."

Chu Huan glanced at the broken window, thoughtful.

Early the next morning, under the leadership of the Hexi soldiers, Peacock Terrace continued to set off. After walking for a few days, on the vast land, Chu Huan saw a majestic city from a distance. Everyone knew that this was the Hexi Road The prefecture is Wuping Mansion.

Wuping Mansion is located in Wuzhou, which is the political center of Hexi Road. It is surrounded by mountains and rivers and is the most majestic city in the north of the empire. Invasion, after Feng Yuan destroyed the father and son for two generations, it deterred the barbarians. Since the founding of the Qin State, the two governors have been the father and son of the Feng family. Therefore, the power of the Feng family in Hexi can be said to be deeply rooted. Wuping City has also been strengthened in the past 20 years. Additions.

Before approaching the city, two Hexi soldiers were ordered to enter the city to report. When the team arrived at the city gate, there were already officials waiting here. The visitor was over 50 years old and looked polite. The Hexi soldiers had already introduced him. This is Hexi Yang Zhen, the head of the Department of Rituals, Chu Huan is still wearing a bamboo hat. Naturally, he will not step forward at this time, but his heart is getting more and more strange. Although Yang Zhen is only the head of the Department of Rites of Hexi Road, his grade does not count. Low, according to the normal situation, there is no need for him to go out to greet Peacock Terrace in person, and he vaguely feels that Hexi Road seems to care too much for Peacock Terrace.

Mao Renju was the team leader, at this time he stepped forward to negotiate, said a few words, then went to the side of the Jinling Que carriage, approached the curtain and said a few words to the inside, and soon, the maidservant Xiao Ning helped Jinling Que get out of the car When he got down, his face was still covered with a light veil, but he didn't see Xiao Lian getting out of the car. Jinling Sparrow went forward and bowed. Yang Zhen had already smiled and said, "I've heard about the girl's name for a long time. Naturally, it must be done solemnly, and it was Xue Butang from the Ministry of Rites who mentioned the girl, so he sent someone to invite her, and the girl has worked hard along the way."

Chu Huan listened carefully from behind, and when Yang Zhen mentioned "Xue Bu Tang", he knew that it was probably Xue Huai'an, Minister of the Ministry of Rites.

Yang Zhen seemed very friendly, and immediately arranged for people to lead the team into the city to stay first. Wuping Mansion has its own post house, and an official led the Peacock Terrace to the post house, and moved in.

This posthouse was built very luxuriously and occupies a huge area. There are dozens of courtyards of various sizes inside, and each courtyard has houses of various sizes.

When everyone in the Peacock Terrace was admitted to the hospital, they discovered that many people had already settled in the post house. There were voices coming from many yards, and it seemed quite lively. The ceremony is going to be grand and festive, so many people have been invited to come and perform. Many people have already arrived, but your Peacock Terrace is the most important team. The Governor has specially explained that I will arrange a secluded large courtyard for you. If you have any needs, you can ask us, as long as we can do it, we will meet your needs."

Mao Renju asked: "But I don't know where the birthday ceremony will be held?"

The official said with a smile: "Naturally, it is the Heavenly Palace. We will take you to the Heavenly Palace on the day of the birthday...!" After a pause, he said with a smile: "But the dance skills of the Jinling sparrow girl are unparalleled. Back then, at the queen's birthday, I heard that the Jinling sparrow girl She presented her dancing skills and was rewarded by the Holy Majesty and the Empress, so this time I specially invited Miss Jinling Que here, and you will have special arrangements for the Peacock Terrace."

Chu Huan followed Mao Renju, wearing a bamboo hat with the brim of his hat pressed down, and asked at this time: "My lord, I heard that many officials from the frontier will come to congratulate the Holy Spirit's birthday?"

The official said with a smile: "That's natural. Xingyuan is next door to this post house, and several governors have already arrived."

"Oh?" Chu Huan said with a smile: "This is a grand event for the empire, and it's also a grand event for Hexi. It's hard to see many governors coming to one place at the same time...!"

"You are right." The official said: "There has never been such a grand event before. Governor Yuan of Anyi Road and Governor Mei of Hujin Road have arrived...!"

While speaking, everyone had already arrived in the yard and was about to carry their luggage into the yard, but they had already heard the noise coming from outside, and a clear and clear voice said loudly: "Has the Jinling Sparrow arrived? I have been waiting for many days , who is the Jinling sparrow? I want to see if it is so amazing and unparalleled in dancing, I want to see if it is true or not."

In the middle of the voice, only the sound of footsteps can be heard, a group of people has already walked over quickly, the first person is wearing armor, but not wearing armor, bronze skin, with a big knife at his waist, his appearance is not handsome, but he is quite handsome. For the sake of watching, there are four or five armored warriors behind him, all of whom look like strong-backed warriors, fierce and mighty——

ps: There is an urgent matter at home. It is in the process of being processed in the past two days, and it is almost finished. I am really sorry for everyone. I will make up for what I owe as much as possible.
