Although the carriage is spacious and can accommodate three or four people without feeling crowded, if there are no more than two people to sleep in, Princess Kunxing must not sleep alone. She dare not, and Chang Yu will not allow him to sleep alone.
So she had to be accompanied by a palace maid or Song Luoyu, but it was too crowded for three people to sleep together. If ordinary people were to squeeze in, it would be fine, but she was a princess.
So Chang Yu had to free up his car for another person to sleep.
Some people may question that if a car can sleep two people, can't it be enough to let the other person sleep with the prince? For example, if Song Luoyu sleeps with the princess, it is okay for the prince to sleep with the palace maid.
There are big problems!
The prince was in his adolescence and slept with a palace maid in a carriage. Who could guarantee that nothing would happen? If Chang Yu couldn't control it in the palace, but if something happened to him, for example, the palace maid would become pregnant, the queen would turn around. Do you blame him for eating? Even if he eats, why bother.
Dozens of personal guards were crowded into two tents, with almost no room to stand. Chang Yu and Zhu Cixiang walked in. Everyone quickly stood up and made room. Zhu Cixiang couldn't help but frowned when he saw the air-conditioning leaking from everywhere. , Chang Yu glanced at him: "What?"
"No, it's nothing." Zhu Cixi shrugged: "Don't you want to see my joke."
Chang Yu chuckled, put his arms around his shoulders and sat down in the corner next to the truck. The ground here was covered with hay, which was sheltered from the wind. It was comfortable and not cold, but he could only sit and lie down without stretching his legs.
After all, he was the prince and could not be too harsh on him, so Chang Yu asked a few personal guards to squeeze in the caravan tent to make room for Zhu Cixiang to stretch his legs, which made him very happy.
After three days together, Zhu Cihong had already become familiar with the guards. Under Chang Yu's influence, he put down his arrogance and got along with the guards. At this time, all the guards crowded together said hello to him and whispered seductively: "Your Highness, I'll bet you two."
"Let's play." Zhu Cixiang's interest was immediately aroused. When Chang Yu held boxing matches in the palace earlier, the prince was a regular visitor. Young people like to play, not to mention gambling is one of the inherent bad qualities of people. Even if he is expensive Being a prince is not exempt from vulgarity.
"Do you have money?" Chang Yu poured cold water on the side. He knew the bad habits in the army best. If you don't have any self-control, you can teach them to everyone in just a few days of eating, drinking, prostitution and gambling, and you will be hard to extricate yourself from.
It is difficult for the prince to get rid of this bad habit when he is in his adolescence. This is something Chang Yu does not want to see. You must know that Zhu Cixiang participated in the boxing match in the palace earlier, but he was the one who ordered the prince to cheat those nobles.
"You can lend me some." The prince's eyes shone, and Chang Yu shook his head: "I never carry any money with me, and you'd better not play with them, otherwise I'll lose all your clothes."
"That's not true." Zhu Cixi really wanted to play: "You give me ten taels of silver. If you win, it's yours. If you lose, I'll definitely stop playing. Isn't this just boring to pass the time..." Zhu Cixi also has discernment. , he could feel that Chang Yu didn't want him to play, and he also knew that he was afraid that he would fall into it.
Seeing what he said, Chang Yu couldn't refuse anymore and signaled Chen Suole to get Zhu Cihong ten taels of silver, and everyone started playing dice in the siege.
Chang Yu was actually a master at playing dice, but he never used those methods when playing with his subordinates. Winning or losing depended on God's will. He also took advantage of the excitement to play a few moves, but his luck was not good, so he had no interest in watching Zhu Cixiang and his bodyguards Hai Tian. Hu land.
He accidentally caught a glimpse of Jiang Fa frowning at the door of the tent and looking outside from time to time. Chang Yu's heart moved and he squeezed over to him: "Master Jiang, are you still worried?" He looked outside and saw a caravan man. The firewood for the campfire was blown by the wind and snow, and he couldn't open his eyes and could not stand on his feet: "Even if that guy came here, he was hiding in a mouse hole to avoid the wind and snow."
Jiang Fa nodded: "I just feel a little uneasy in my heart."
"Perhaps they were noisy." Chang Yu looked back at the excited and shouting guards over there with a bitter smile and shook his head: "Let's go out and get some air." He covered his head with a blanket and walked out of the tent with Jiang Fa, leaning against the truck. Sheltered from the wind, with a vast expanse of white in front of us, the war horses huddled together to keep warm and snored from time to time.
This caravan is very experienced at first glance. The tents and tarpaulins are well prepared to cope with all kinds of weather on the way. Moreover, the camp is set up quite well. The trucks are wall-mounted, can be attacked, retreated, or defended, and are covered with oilcloth mules. The horses hide underneath, and a bonfire is lit in the open space in the middle and tents are set up around it for both lighting and warmth.
The caravan tent was also very lively, and the guys inside were obviously not going to sleep out of boredom. Chang Yu and Jiang Fa got in, and as expected they were also betting money.
The manager in charge saw them and came over quickly: "Please come and have fun with me, Master Jun."
"Listen to the excitement here, come and take a look." Chang Yu chuckled: "I wonder how old you all are?" Seeing that he was not very young, the manager thought he was just a fun-loving **: "We are just passing the time by ourselves. Master Jun likes to play with big things?"
Chang Yu nodded: "I like to play big, but I don't have money in my pocket." When the steward heard this, he said in his mind, "Your uncle," but he still kept a smile on his face: "Why don't you borrow some from the military master for fun first?"
Chang Yu shook his head: "I'm not lucky today, so I'm not going to play anymore. I just came with my elder brother to see the fun." He winked at Jiang Fa. Jiang Fa understood and walked over to watch the gang of guys bet money. Chang Yu had Chatting with the manager without saying a word was actually just to cheat.
This Hongshenghao shop is quite well-known in Beijing. It has a large business and makes firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, fabrics, silk and satin. It has many branches outside Beijing, such as nearby Changli, Lulong, Funing and Shanhaiguan not only sells directly but also retails and wholesales to local vendors.
"Let's put it this way, our Hongsheng can be said to be like this in the capital." The manager held out his thumb, and Chang Yu nodded in agreement, rolling his eyes in his heart, "Wait a minute, you won't even be able to see the tail lights of the Octopus for two years at most."
The two of them were chatting, and suddenly they heard Jiang Fa shouting over there: "Who are you with?" Chang Yu suddenly turned around and saw Jiang Fa grabbing a waiter's arm.
Just as he was about to rush over and ask what was going on, the guy flipped his wrist and raised his kick at the same time. Jiang Fa was unable to dodge and was kicked away by the guy, but the guy broke free. At this time, Chang Yu had already rushed forward and stretched out his hand. After capturing him, the man unexpectedly had a dagger in his backhand. Chang Yu had no choice but to dodge in the cold light. The man took advantage of this opportunity and cut a hole in the tent with his knife and got out.
Chang Yu cursed loudly and was about to chase after the figure beside him. Jiang Fa had already escaped from the gap in the blink of an eye. When Chang Yu got out, he saw the guy jumped out of the truck and disappeared into the white wind and snow.
When Jiang Fa was about to chase him out, Chang Yu shouted back: "Stop chasing him!"
"This thief is so ruthless." Jiang Fa held a short knife with blood in his hand. Just when he was chasing him out of the tent, the guy raised his hand and flew towards him. In fact, he could have dodged it, but he was just worried about hurting Chang Chang behind him. Yu then took the risk and reached out to take it, but because of this stagnation, the thief escaped.
The incident happened suddenly, which is a long story but actually only happened in a matter of ten seconds. The movement was not big or small, but the whole camp was alarmed. At this time, it also showed the military quality of the Dongchang Guards. They were originally noisy and gambling money. After hearing the noise, they immediately raided the guys. One wave of people surrounded the prince, one group of people rushed to Princess Kunxing's carriage, and the other wave of people rushed directly to Chang Yu.
"Is that the thief?" Chang Yu asked Jiang Fa.
Jiang Fa shook his head: "It's strange! It's the flower picker!"
ah! Chang Yu was stunned for a moment. The two of them ran here for a walk by mistake. Jiang Fa squeezed in the crowd of guys and watched them bet money, but suddenly he smelled a vaguely familiar smell. It was very familiar. But I couldn’t remember it for a moment because the taste was too bland and intermittent.
But suddenly an idea flashed in my mind. It was the scent of incense and ash left on the window of the princess's guest room in that town the day before yesterday.
Good guy, I didn't expect to bump into the flower picker here by mistake, and he turned out to be a guy from the caravan. Jiang Fa caught him immediately, but he immediately felt something was wrong. This was not an ordinary flower picker. The thief's reaction ability and body-lighting skills are definitely not ordinary.
"Who is that guy?" At this time, Wang Zhengnan had already escorted the steward over. The steward, who had been chatting and laughing with Chang Yu just now, was frightened and turned pale. He already knew that the young man in front of him was not an ordinary thing. He was a fan, but he was really not that person just now. Because it was cold and his head was wrapped in a cloth and a hat, he suddenly really paid attention to his face clearly when the incident happened.
Roll call!
There were sixty-seven people in the caravan, and now there are only sixty-six. Who is missing?
