Chapter 16

Qihou dressed very low-key today, because it was summer, he was wearing a silk black robe, the robe was light and smooth, very close-fitting, it outlined his tall figure, even when he was sitting, he straightened his back, the slack on his back The muscular lines are almost sprouting from the silk black robe, or Qi Hou's education and experience from childhood to adulthood make Qi Hou meticulous even when sitting, or the person he is about to meet in front of him makes Qi Hou Hou had no choice but to be vigilant...

When Qi Hou saw Wu Jiu, he was not surprised at all, but enjoyed taking a full view of Wu Jiu's surprise. This was the first time that Qi Hou saw Wu Jiu's surprise so clearly.

Wu Jiu is generally calm, he has no great joy or sorrow. At the time of Shi Shui, Qi Hou Mingming heard that Wu Jiu was so angry that he vomited blood because he missed the position of Marquis, and almost returned to Xili. Afterwards, Marquis Qi discovered that Wu Jiu didn't feel angry and vomiting blood at all, and he didn't know if it was a false appearance of suspicion.

Qi Hou gently shook the wine glass, enjoying Wu Jiu's fleeting surprise, and said with a smile, "Second brother, sit down."

Wu Jiu was surprised for a moment, and finally understood why Qihou was so relieved that he was going to Ju country, why Qihou was so generous to give him the tiger and ben imperial army as guards, why Qihou asked Da Sixing to be his deputy, because All of this was not specially prepared for Wu Jiu, but prepared by Marquis Qi for himself, and Wu Jiao was just a cover.

Wu Jiu walked in slowly, then sat down, Ziqing followed the car outside, and said, "Young master, can we start?"

Wu Jiu had restrained his surprise, sat down calmly, and said in a calm tone, "Let's go."

As soon as his words fell, the heralds outside issued orders layer by layer, and the guard of honor composed of the magnificent tiger and cardinal army began to set off. The convoy in front set off first, and the convoy behind also began to roll forward, with the sound of chariots and horses layer by layer. , The big line in the middle finally started.

Although the black cars these days also have some shock absorbing settings, but the effect is negligible. As soon as the car starts to move, it immediately makes a lot of noise, because the ground is not very flat, and it starts to shake. There are only two people in the car, Wu Jiu and Qi Hou. , because the carriage is very big, Qi Hou sat in the middle, and Wu Jiu sat respectfully next to him.

Qihou's attire today is very ordinary. He didn't wear a court robe or a court hat. He wore a black jade crown and tied his hair. He was dressed in noble black, and he looked extraordinary. Indescribable majesty and vigor.

Qihou smiled and poured a glass of ebony wine himself, and said, "Why is the second brother sitting so far away, sit here."

As he spoke, he patted the seat beside him. There was a mat beside Qihou. Although there were no such things as chairs and stools these days, mats would be laid before sitting down.

There was no mat where Wu Jiu sat.

When Wu Jiu saw Qi Hou's movements, he thanked Qi Hou first, then stood up, bowed his head, and walked over to sit next to Qi Hou. Qi Hou handed the poured ebony wine to Wu Jiu, and said with a smile: "Second brother, don't be restrained. You are a big pedestrian on this trip, and I... I am just a tiger soldier to protect the big pedestrian. Please remember, second brother."

When Wu Jiu heard it, Marquis Qi was addicted to playing role-playing games. After all, he had just ascended the throne, and logically speaking, he should not have left Linzi City, but now he is going to Ju State. If people with malicious intentions find out, such as Gongsun Wuzhi The surviving members of the party members will definitely cause trouble. Wu Jiu feels that with the posture of Marquis Qi traveling, it is impossible for the rebellious ministers and bandits to come and assassinate them. There is also some headaches in Linzi city.

Therefore, Qihou must not let others know that he is traveling, all of this is handled in secret, and Wu Jiao only knew Qihou's plan at the moment when he pedaled.

Wu Jiao respectfully took the ebony wine, lowered his head and held it in both hands, and refused to drink it. He secretly complained, what are they just protecting the pedestrians? The temple is right.

Qihou didn't know that Wu Jiao was actually a bit of a petulant person, and Wu Jiao had secretly complained that he was an eunuch.

On the surface, Wu Jiu was very respectful, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty's trip this time...in the city of Linzi..."

Qihou waved his hand and said with a smile: "Second brother, don't worry, Linzi City has already been entrusted to Master Shu Ya and Master Guan."

When Wu Jiu heard this, he now suddenly understood why they had to bring Zhaohu with them.

Bao Shuya, Guan Yiwu, and Zhao Hu, these three people are like brothers. Back then, the three of them each assisted the young master to escape from the state of Qi. That was a last resort. It does not mean that the relationship between the three of them has been torn apart. The brotherhood is getting deeper and deeper.

Now the Marquis of Qi had a good plan, he only took Zhaohu, who was skilled in martial arts, to protect Wu Jiu's safety, so Zhaohu was naturally willing to go with him, but Guan Yiwu was detained in Linzi city.

Bao Shuya himself assisted the Marquis of Qi, and he did his best. If Guan Yiwu didn't do his best, Zhao Hu and Wu Jiu would be regarded as hostages, and they would be held firmly in the hands of Marquis Qi.

Wu Jiu thought about it, and suddenly felt that Qihou was too thoughtful. Even if he had been intriguing in the company's senior management in his previous life, he didn't need Qihou, who is up and down in the official world, to be so thoughtful. I feel that I should be more cautious.

Wu Jiu didn't speak any more, Qi Hou said with a smile: "Second brother wears this official robe, which adds a bit of color."

Wu Jiu lowered his head and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your appreciation."

Qihou said: "Don't be so cautious, we are now... that is, Lala's daily life, second brother, how many years have we not sat together and talked about what is on our minds?"

Wu Jiu didn't speak, Qi Hou sang a one-man show alone, he wasn't afraid of being alone, and he wasn't afraid of being left alone, so he said with a smile: "Come, let's drink, second brother, don't be restrained."

Wu Jiu quickly picked up the wine glass, covered it with his sleeve, and drank it up with his head up. Seeing that he had run out, Qi Hou immediately added another glass of wine for him.

Then he put out all the appetizers from the small cabinet, put them one by one on the mat table in the carriage, and said with a smile: "The road to Ju is very long, so the two of us can talk freely over wine, what does the second brother think?" ?”

Wu Jiu just made a salute and said, "Listen to your majesty's orders."

Qihou said with a smile: "I'm cautious again, don't be cautious, second brother, do you know? After I escaped from Qi State, I was not as lucky as you. When you went to Lu State, Lu Gong put the treasure on you, At that time... I went to Tan Guo with Master Shu Ya first, Tan Guo, a viscount country, not only insulted, but also drove me and Master Shu Ya out of Tan Guo, and later we were chased and killed by Gongsun Wuzhi, all the way Fleeing, Master Shu Ya saved my life several times, so it seems that I have survived to this day..."

Qi Hou said, sighed, seemed to be recalling the past, and said faintly: "Now that I think about it, I really feel a lot of emotion."

Wu Jiu just listened quietly and didn't speak. After all, he still didn't know what Qihou's temper was like. On the surface, Qihou was chatting with him. , Too many words and too many mistakes, Wu Jiu chose not to say anything.

Wu Jiu took the initiative to hold up the wine jar and filled Qi Hou with ebony wine. The two of them drank while talking.

The car drove out of Linzi city, at noon, because Qihou was in the car, so Wu Jiu couldn't get out of the car, so the two of them had lunch in the car.

Zhaohu didn't know that Marquis Qi was sitting in the carriage, and even Sun Xipeng, the chief executive, was kept in the dark. Dong Guoya saw this posture, and also read the expression on the son of the country when he saw him off. He knew that Marquis Qi must be in the carriage. Otherwise, how could the proud son of the state send Wu Jiu off so respectfully? To put it bluntly, they are from different parties. Even if the party supported by the son of the state has already ascended the throne, the son of the state wants to kill the grass and roots. It is impossible to be so respectful to Wu Jiu kind.

Dong Guoya was just guessing, but his guess was not unfounded. During lunch, Dong Guoya frequently went to look at the chariot. Zhaohu heard that he was also the son's "master". In fact, he was quite unconvinced. After all, Guan Yiwu and Zhaohu have supported the young master for so many years, and they were the masters ordered by the father-in-law first. Suddenly, another master popped up, who was also the coolie of the kitchen. Zhaohu is also quite arrogant, how could he be reconciled.

Zhao Hu felt that this Dong Guoya looked like a poor scholar, saying that he was a scholar, with a sarcastic appearance, and he didn't have the open-mindedness of the second brother, nor the measure of the elder brother Shu Ya, he was completely petty.

Zhao Hu obviously didn't like Dong Guoya, seeing him keep looking at the car, he patted him and said, "Hey, what do you think of that tooth?"

Only then did Dong Guoya come back to his senses, and glanced at Zhaohu's expression. Dongguoya was the best at observing words and expressions, and he was also good at observing other people's body language. But when I looked at you, my eyelids drooped, obviously I didn't like myself, but there was a smile on my face, and my eyes rolled quickly in their sockets, with a sense of agility and cunning, I must be thinking about how to play tricks Own.

Dong Guoya had already understood all the sevens and eights, and couldn't help but laugh a little. When he was working as a coolie in the dining room, he often heard that Zhaohu was such a noble character, such a strong character, loyal to the emperor, and capable of assisting the army. It can be said that there is no one in the past, but seeing him now, I feel that Zhao Hu's childlike innocence is not lost, a little childish, but this disposition is quite true in the deep palace.

Zhao Hu wanted to play tricks on Dong Guoya, but he didn't know that everyone was watching him for real, and he was still making a bad idea.

After lunch, the car started to drive smoothly again. Linzi city is the capital, and the road is even more uneven after leaving Linzi city. Wu Jiao was motion sick in his previous life, but he didn't expect that he would even get fainted by a carriage in this life.

Especially after lunch, I drank a lot of wine on an empty stomach. Although ebony wine has no strength, I feel very uncomfortable now. , almost spit it out.

Wu Jiu's face was already pale, but now he became paler due to motion sickness, the blush on his cheeks slowly receded, and his lips also turned into a thin pink.

Seeing his uncomfortable appearance, Qihou said with concern: "Second brother is not feeling well, lie down and rest for a while, there is still some time before camping at night."

Wu Jiu wanted to endure it, but he couldn't help it anymore, if he didn't lie down to sleep, he might really vomit in a while, and Qihou would be even more abrupt, so he just thanked Qihou, and lay down to rest, he felt even more shaking when he got down.

Wu Jiu closed his eyes tightly, forcing himself to endure the uncomfortable feeling, unexpectedly slowly fell asleep.

Wu Jiu fell into a dream in a daze. At first, he felt uncomfortable sleeping, because the carriage was very hard. Although there were mats, it was only a mat for sitting, not a soft couch for sleeping, but later, for some reason, , and gradually became comfortable, as if he was lying on a soft soft couch, and something was gently brushing his hair and cheeks, making Wu Jiao very comfortable.

Wu Jiao had a sweet dream. He dreamed of his mother, who coaxed him to sleep, patted him gently, stroked his cheek, and smiled at Wu Jiao. A little sour, I can't help but want to cry...

"Second brother..."

"Second brother..."

"Second brother?"

Wu Jiu heard a vague voice, which gradually became real, his body shook, and he woke up suddenly. He had dreamed about his mother just now, but it was all a dream. Wu Jiu woke up suddenly, startled. for a moment.

Because he found that he was not lying on a soft couch, he was still in the carriage, but Wu Jiao was lying on Qihou's lap, covered with a thin silk quilt, Qihou looked down at him, Said: "Second brother is awake? It's getting late, and it's time to order to set up camp. After the tent is set up, second brother will rest."

Wu Jiu quickly got up and said hastily: "Jiu is impolite, please punish me."

Qi Hou let out a low laugh, looking at Wu Jiu who was bowing his head in salute, he suddenly stretched out his hand, and cupped half of Wu Jiu's cheek with his broad palm.

Wu Jiu was startled, but he didn't dare to move, restraining his trembling.

However, Qi Hou gently wiped away the remaining tears at the corners of Wu Jiao's eyes with his thumb, squinted his eyes and said with a smile, "What's wrong with Second Brother? Second Brother doesn't know...Second Brother's sleeping face is really endearing." .”
