I was Idle and Cool Chapter 179: Xue Kuang is still facing

Gu Juefei has entered the temple.

Lu Jinxi watched his back gradually recede on the promenade, turned another corner, and finally entered the hall that was silent after the banquet and disappeared.

In front of the magnificent Taiji Hall, there are long steps made of white marble, and the middle is carved with a long picture of auspicious five-clawed golden dragon.

Prince Guards stand in the snow with a halberd, like a sculpture.

On the corridors on both sides stood an **** every five feet, all standing with their heads bowed and their eyes not squinting.

On the evening of New Year's Eve, the north wind blew more and more urgently, roaring and whimpering, rolling up the snow on the wide square below the main hall, and scattering a piece of snow in the air .

The strange and twisted shape resembles a nocturnal demon.

Breaking out of the tomb, growing in the dark, and turning into a mouthful of blood, engulfing all the warmth of this palace!

The wind is stronger.

Snow is more sudden.

It's getting colder.

Lu Jinxi stood under the porch and watched, she could not help shrinking her shoulders, tightening the sable waistcoat on her body, but her eyebrows were already twisted.

Urgent report from the border...

She remembered that Gu Juefei had mentioned that the situation of the old Chanyu at the border was no longer good, and he had said that it would take time for the information from the border to come to the capital.

I don't know, what is this so-called "accident"?

Just a moment after Gu Juefei entered, several eunuchs rushed out of the hall, only running towards the Imperial Horse Supervisor, screaming "Quickly prepare the horse" as they ran.

Not long after, dozens of fast horses galloped out of the palace!

Lu Jinxi couldn't see where all the horses had gone, but at a glance, he saw that the number of the Imperial Guards at the gate of the palace quickly tripled.

Soon, the eunuchs returned.

But those who returned to the palace with them were all the important civil and military ministers in the DPRK!

She stood on the corridor and glanced over, and she saw Wei Bingqian, the imperial minister, Tang Ruijing, the right servant of the Ministry of War, Fang Shaoxing, the left servant of the Ministry of War, and the cabinet ministers, and even Ji Heng...

Some of them are still wearing the court clothes when they went to the banquet, and some have changed their court clothes and wore regular clothes...

Everyone looked shocked and inexplicable, as if they had been summoned to the palace in a hurry.

The little palace maid who was serving in the front of the famous imperial palace came out of the palace, and only saluted Lu Jinxi and invited her to the side of the palace, saying that it was windy outside, and told her to avoid it.

Lu Jinxi entered the side hall.

This is the place where the maids and eunuchs prepare or rest on weekdays. When a fire is lit, she sits by the fire, but her heart can't be calm.

At the second quarter of Haizheng, another group of eunuchs went out from the palace;

Haizheng three quarters, the palace gate is keyed;

At four o'clock in the morning, the imperial guards in the palace were already standing on the long corridor from outside the Taiji Gate. In front of the Taiji Hall was a series of numbers. The iron armor reflected the palace lights and it was cold, indescribably cold!

This night suddenly became long and torturous.

Lu Jinxi was waiting in the side hall, and she couldn't help but feel sleepy. It was only after leaning on the armrest of the rose chair for a while, before he could fall asleep, he heard the sound of drums from the distance outside the imperial city.

Just in time.

On New Year's Eve, there is no curfew in and out of the capital. During the busiest time, with the sound of drums, there are countless firecrackers from far and near, and people's laughter.

Fire tree silver flower, a nightless day.

But then, a series of loud bells rang in the middle of the night when there should be no bells!

"When—"

"When—"

"When—"

The huge capital, the boiling crowd, almost all fell silent!

Then the hurried, rain-like sound of horses' hooves could finally be clearly heard by everyone, coming from the wide open outer city gate and driving in along Chang'an Avenue all the way!

Go straight to the Imperial City!

A steed took the lead, and the sergeant above held a black military flag in his hand, and a blood-stained unicorn seemed to be about to pounce on the flag fluttering in the wind!

He just galloped ahead, shouting loudly—

"Quickly retreat! The general is still facing, quickly retreat!!!"

The sudden and violent snowstorm made his voice sound hoarse, as if galloping in the border desert, the yellow sand under the moon...

He shouted all the way and came to the Tai Chi gate.

Lu Jinxi was in the side hall, and when he heard the voice outside, he felt vague and could not hear clearly, and only roughly captured the words "returning towards" and "rescue".

But then the palace gate opened.

That long voice sounds magnificent in the daytime, but in this unreasonably big snowy night on New Year's Eve, it has a creepy and eerie horror!

The dense snow flakes blocked Lu Jinxi's sight.

Away from this distance, she could only see a horse galloping in from the palace gate, and a heroic figure turned down from the tall horse, and there was only a vague shadow in the snow.

Obviously she couldn't see clearly, but the moment she saw the outline, she was already shocked!

It was a solemn and heavy figure, walking from far to near, step by step, walking towards the Tai Chi Hall with his feet on the mountains and rivers.

Cold armor, snow-splattered boots!

The gust of wind lifted the black cloak he wore on his shoulders, and the dark silver unicorn pattern embroidered on the back swelled and pierced deeply into people's eyes!

A ferocious iron blood!

Those are the eyebrows and eyes carved by the wind and snow, condensing the vicissitudes of the years and the wind and sand, but what settles down is a proud, full of eloquence!

Without the cover of the beard, without the cover of the thick robe.

He has bright eyebrows, a high nose and thin lips, a broad chest and a strong waistline...

Step by step.

Go down the steps and up to the last step.

The wind is too wild.

The snow is too sudden.

However, there was a smile on his lips, a smile that was inevitable and fearless!

Lu Jinxi took a step back, unable to stand still.

The thoughts in my head exploded in an instant, crowded into a mess, and it was impossible to tell which side was the head and which side was the tail.

In a trance of shaking, I only heard the loud call to the sky—

"Announcement—"

"Wuwei Township General Xue Kuang welcomes you!"
