Perhaps because Yang Dong returned to the tent, the noisy atmosphere gradually subsided, and occasionally you could still hear the chirping of insects and frogs.
The record of being benevolent for thousands of years, not to mention Yang Dong's generous actions on weekdays, not to mention the reward he had just given, must have made the accompanying guards grateful and energetic to ensure the safety of the surrounding area.
Shi Zixin stretched, rolled his eyes, and walked towards Yang Dong's tent in the next moment.
However, before he could open the entry screen, there was a knife handle lying in front of him.
"I'm sorry, knight, this is an important and private place for Mr. Yang. No unauthorized personnel are allowed to enter." A guard said loudly, his tone seemed particularly serious.
He looked at the guard who was chatting and laughing one second and upright the next.
Instead of being angry, Shi Zixin became more and more energetic. He smiled playfully and tried to put his hand on the guard's shoulder. Unexpectedly, the latter drew a knife and warned him.
"Don't be nervous, I don't mean any harm. In fact, I am from the same school as Master Yang, otherwise I would not be able to travel with you, so as a convenience, how about letting me sleep in the same tent with my junior senior brother?"
The guard hesitated for a moment, but soon assumed a solemn posture, obviously not intending to agree.
This made Shi Zixin extremely anxious. Looking at the entire team, Yang Dong was the only one who slept in the tent. The rest either stayed vigil or slept on the ground, using the sky as their bed and the earth as their bed.
For Shi Zixin, who was still lying on a soft and soft bed last night, with a wine-drinking girl by his side, it undoubtedly caused a huge gap.
Seeing the guard's resolute attitude, Shi Zi couldn't believe it, so he simply changed his method.
"To prevent this from happening, could you please ask my junior brother what he wants? If he doesn't object, how about letting me in?"
The guard frowned slightly and carefully examined Shi Zixin.
Recalling that he was the only one riding in the carriage with Yang Dong on the previous trip, he did not dare to offend easily.
"Wait here!" After weighing the pros and cons, the guard had no choice but to try.
Soon the guard walked to the tent. The sound was not loud, but it was enough for the people inside to hear clearly.
"Mr. Yang, the knight riding in the carriage with you during the day said he was your junior brother and wanted to enter the tent to rest. What does Mr. Yang mean?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the originally brightly lit camp suddenly became extremely dark. If you listen carefully, you can even hear slight snoring.
This scene instantly stunned Shi Zixin, who stood there stupidly.
"I see, Mr. Yang has fallen asleep. You'd better find a tree to lean on and rest for a while. You have to go on the road tomorrow morning."
The guard said with a serious smile, as if he was worried that Shi Zixin would sneak into Yang Dong's tent unprepared. He who was supposed to be keeping vigil at a distance actually stood directly outside the tent after informing his companions. .
Shi Zixin wanted to teach him a lesson on the spot...
In fact, Yang Dong was not asleep at all at this time, and could clearly hear the movement outside.
The reason why Shi Zixin was not allowed to live in the house was actually for precaution.
The night is no better than the day. Being able to sit in the carriage is already the most benevolent thing, but it is absolutely impossible to sleep in the same bed.
Yang Dong spent a lot of energy to stand firm in the palace step by step, and more importantly, he was still a fake eunuch.
Not many people know about this, but those few people will never make it known to the public.
Now is the time to travel far away. The less people know about his fake eunuch identity, the better he can ensure his own safety. This is also the reason why Shi Zixin failed to enter the accounting room.
It’s not like this guy has never been in the wilderness. Why does he want to squeeze in with me?
It seems that the way of getting along with each other is not good, resulting in not even the slightest prestige, which is not a good thing.
Yang Dong calculated secretly, and unconsciously his eyelids were tired and he fell into a deep sleep.
…
When he woke up the next day, Yang Dong made some preparations, opened the tent and saw the guards tapping the supplies.
Tieniu seemed to have integrated into the current atmosphere very quickly, and was able to mingle with the guards he had never met before. Only Shi Zixin was still sleeping soundly against a tree with his neck crooked, showing no signs of waking up...
This is not okay. No matter what, we have to take care of our image, not to mention we are not out for fun.
So Yang Dong slowly walked over and saw that he was not prepared at all, and he suddenly became playful.
He picked a piece of wild grass at random, then bent down to Shi Zixin, and gently swung the wild grass back and forth under his nose.
Unexpectedly, Shi Zi was quite confident. Instead of being woken up, he just rubbed his itchy nose, adjusted his body shape slightly, turned over and fell asleep again.
Seeing this, the surrounding guards were not as patient as Yang Dong, and suggested: "Mr. Yang, in the opinion of my subordinates, let him stay here. We have official business, if it is because of an outsider , thus affecting the itinerary. If Your Majesty knew about it, I'm afraid it would be inappropriate."
There is nothing wrong with this. After all, these guards and Shi Zixin are not relatives, so there is no reason to spoil him.
I'm afraid if it weren't for the fact that Shi Zixin was Yang Dong's junior brother, he might have been packed up and thrown away to feed the wolves last night.
Only Tieniu is honest and honest, even though he is often cheated by Shi Zixin, he has no complaints about his master.
"Mr. Yang, how about I wake up the master so as not to waste everyone's time."
Yang Dong shook his head: "It doesn't matter, since I am the one who brought you master and apprentice out, I will naturally be responsible for you, and..."
Having said this, Yang Dong turned his eyes, with a chill in his eyes, and fell on several guards with indifferent expressions.
"Put away your thoughts, and let me hear whoever dares to complain in the future. Don't blame me for not being easy-going and expelling him from the team. Your Majesty will then blame him and explain himself."
If the tiger doesn't show off its power, it really treats Yang Dong as a sick cat.
Yang Dong understood that Rao was deeply loved by the empress, but for these soldiers-born guards, he still looked down upon him in his heart.
However, the performance just now can be regarded as highlighting Yang Dong's terrifying scene, and it can be regarded as a wake-up call for them.
Yang Dong didn't want to quarrel. After all, they had to take care of each other along the way. There was no need to make each other's identities too embarrassing, as that would not be conducive to unity.
Chong Tieniu glanced at him and called softly: "I'll go back to the carriage first. When Shi Zixin wakes up, ask him to find me in the carriage."
…
In fact, Yang Dong was fully capable of waking him up in person, but that would obviously drag him down a bit.
After less than a cup of tea, Shi Zixin, who was disturbed from his sleep, walked into the carriage with a curse.
"I don't want anyone to have a good night's sleep. At this hour, he woke me up in a hurry."
Yang Dong looked at him and took a deep breath...
"Junior brother, why don't you just go back to the imperial city before you get too far, and don't go with Youzhou and his party..."
Some people died, but not completely...
