Turbulent Times Chapter 95: Princess Leping

(Thank you very much for the generosity of 'apharmy', 'xmz123456', 'Xinxia' and monthly ticket support.)

When it was just dark, Wang Junlin suddenly woke up.

Sitting up, he saw the little lynx also opened his eyes, staring at the outside of the house with his tawny eyes. Two guards stood at the door of the bamboo house, with horizontal knives in their arms and cloaks covering their bodies. Another guard was sitting by the edge of the firepit, his head was biting, as if he was taking a nap, and he was responsible for adding fire. On the other side of the fire pond, Yuzi was snoring silently, sleeping soundly.

"Zimo!"

Wang Junlin got up, picked up the Dragon Sparrow Saber, and pushed Yuzimo awake.

"Master, what's the matter?"

"Did you hear anything?"

At this time, Zhan Peng and several other guards also woke up, got up with a knife, and walked out of the bamboo house.

Xia Yu was not chilled, and the twenty or so horses in the stables built during the day seemed to be very quiet, but the purple eyes of the blood-maned horses in the independent stables were looking in the direction of the official road. Wang Junlin listened attentively, and amidst the pattering rain, he could vaguely hear the sound of horseshoes.

According to the time of later generations, it will be around eight o'clock in the evening, who is still on their way?

Wang Junlin was puzzled and glanced at Zhan Peng, who immediately understood what he meant.

He brought two guards, the three of them armed with knives and bows, put on coir raincoats, walked out of the bamboo house, and hid in the bamboo forest on both sides of the bamboo house.

"Uncle, is there a thief coming? If there are few people, let me kill it alone!" Yu Zimo said excitedly.

"What to kill? It's less than 300 miles away from the capital. How can a thief dare to show up here." Wang Junlin smiled wryly. He couldn't figure out why Yu Zimo, a fifteen-year-old boy, had such a murderous intention. , I always think about fighting and killing people all day long, this kid is born to be a killer.

"Hey!" Yuzi scratched his head silently, smirked twice, grabbed the little lynx from the ground, and put it on his head. It was obviously not the first time that the little lynx did this, crawling steadily On Yu Zimo's head, he looked out of the house vigilantly.

Although Wang Junlin believed that the possibility of strong men like bandits appearing here is very small, and that the Changping Palace would not send someone to kill him in a short time, his vigilance would not be relaxed.

Ten horses rushed into the bamboo forest like lightning.

The knight on the horse was burly and sturdy, and he jumped off the horse, splashing mud and water.

"People in the room listen, come out immediately."

The light in the bamboo forest was extremely dim, and it was impossible to see the appearance of the person coming. Wang Junlin waved his hand lightly, signaling Zhan Peng and Yu Zimo not to act rashly, and to look first before talking.

"People in the house come out quickly, if you don't come out, don't blame us for being rude!"

The leading knight was obviously used to being arrogant and domineering. He roared twice and saw that there was no movement in the bamboo house, so he stepped onto the porch.

Almost the moment he took a step, a sharp whistle came from the cabin.

Two sharp arrows shot over from the bamboo forests on both sides. The knights were startled, and they dodged easily. Of course, this was Zhan Peng's intention to warn, not to kill.

However, the two arrows also angered the leading knight.

"Hiding the head and shrinking the tail, it's not a **** or a thief, give it to me!"

The ten knights were about to rush over, Wang Junlin nodded, and Yuzimo rushed out with a roar to fight with the ten knights.

Although Yu Zimo is in the stagnant stage, but because of his great strength, he is no less weak than ordinary masters of the breaking stage. Ordinary soldiers and hundreds of people are not his opponents at all, but these ten knights are even in a tie with him . Wang Junlin could see very clearly that these ten knights had actually completed foundation building, which was already comparable to the strength of ordinary captains in the army. The capital's important land is really extraordinary, and it has such strength when you meet a team of knights casually.

At this moment, Wang Junlin saw hundreds of knights walking towards the bamboo house surrounded by an extremely luxurious carriage. He saw that nearly half of these knights were dressed in the same outfit as the cavalry who fought silently with Yuzi in the field. The other half were actually wearing iron helmets, and they couldn't help but shudder, and shouted: "Zi Mo stop."

Yu Zimo obeyed Wang Junlin's words, and immediately tried his best to force the ten knights back, and ran back. These ten knights did not expect to meet a master who was infinitely close to breaking the stage in this wilderness bamboo house. Be vigilant, and did not catch up.

Wang Junlin from a distance saw a man wearing a bright armor coming out of the crowd. The ten cavalrymen knelt on one knee, and one of them reported something.

In the Sui army, only generals above General Ying Yanglang could wear the bright armor. Looking at the battle again, Wang Junlin knew that he had encountered a big man today.

At this moment, after the general heard the report, he looked over with a stern face, knowing that the misunderstanding of today's matter has been completed, and a little mishandling may cause disaster.

Thinking of this, Wang Junlin gritted his teeth, told others not to act rashly, walked forward alone, cupped his fists and said: "Wang Junlin, a young frontier guard in Yongzhou, I don't know which nobleman came here, and I offended you, please forgive me. "

Unexpectedly, the general snorted coldly and said: "How can you know the name of the nobleman? If you offend the nobleman, you will be arrested quickly, otherwise don't blame me for ordering you to be surrounded and killed."

Wang Junlin forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and said: "Just now when your people arrived, they did not report their family background and reveal their identities, but forcibly expelled us. That's why there was a misunderstanding. This general, please check it out."

The general ignored Wang Junlin, waved his hand and said, "Take down these daring thieves."

Wang Junlin's face changed, and he was about to say something, when suddenly a woman's voice came from the carriage behind: "Wait a minute!"

The general's expression froze, and he quickly ordered everyone to stop, and then the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a graceful and beautiful woman came out of the carriage with the support of two maids.

Wang Junlin looked around and couldn't help but his eyes lit up, showing a strange light. This was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen since he came to this era.

This woman is tall and slender, wearing a snow-white wide gauze dress, her jet-black hair hangs over her shoulders like a waterfall, and she doesn't have any jewelry on her body. The temperament and the surrounding bamboo forest in the evening are strangely integrated, as if she is a fairy in this bamboo forest. Not to mention that in this era, such a beautiful Wang Junlin is extremely rare even in later generations.

The woman stared at Wang Junlin with cold eyes, with curiosity in her expression, she slightly opened her lips and said, "You just said you were Wang Junlin?"

Wang Junlin secretly guessed the identity of this woman, intervened in a salute, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "I am Wang Junlin."

The general suddenly remembered something. Seeing Wang Junlin's expression froze suddenly, the rest of the knights were also commotion and whispering. Obviously these people finally realized who Wang Junlin was.

It can't be blamed that these people didn't think of it for a while, because the world only knows the poisonous general of Yongzhou, but many people don't know the name of the poisonous general.

"Is it the poisonous general Wang Junlin?" The curiosity in the woman's expression became even more serious.

Wang Junlin smiled wryly, and said: "The guard of Gaotai City, Zhangye County, Xiayongzhou, the captain of Guoyi, Wang Junlin."

The woman looked carefully for a while, and then said: "The rumors are not as good as the first sight. I heard that the poisonous general is nine feet tall, with a black complexion, and long fangs in his mouth. He needs to eat and drink the meat and blood of the savage Tuyuhun every day. The poisonous general is face to face, but he is such a handsome man."

Wang Junlin couldn't help being shocked when he heard a woman claiming to be "My Palace". In today's world, there are only two most noble women in the world who can be called "My Palace"--Queen Dugu Jialuo and Eldest Princess Yang Lihua.

Wang Junlin knew that Empress Dugu had fallen ill as early as the beginning of the year and was lying on the hospital bed all day, so it was impossible to appear here at this time. Then the identity of the graceful woman in front of me is ready to be revealed.

Princess Leping Yang Lihua, the eldest daughter of Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty Yang Jian, the eldest sister of Yang Guang, the former queen of Emperor Xuan of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, this is the most respected princess of the Sui Empire, Wang Junlin did not expect to meet this woman under such circumstances.

Thinking of this, Wang Junlin knelt on one knee and said loudly: "The humble Wang Junlin pays homage to His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess."

"Excuse me, General Wang!" Yang Lihua slowly got out of the carriage, walked five steps in front of Wang Junlin, and looked at Wang Junlin who stood up from a distance. , this woman's temperament and eyes are no longer youthful, but the years have not carved too many marks on her fair face. She has a noble temperament, her eyes are as hazy as a dream, and her voice is soft, but she has an irresistible charm. The only drawback is that his face is a little pale, which shows that his physical condition is not very good, and there is a trace of sadness deep in his eyes.

In Wang Junlin's memory, Yang Lihua was actually a miserable woman with ill-fated fate. Not long after she became the former Empress Xuandi of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, her father Yang Jian usurped the throne and killed his husband and his family successively. She originally had a daughter, but there was no He died a few years later, but Wang Junlin remembered that not a few years after Yang Guang became emperor, Yang Lihua accompanied Yang Guang to inspect Wuyuan County and died of illness on the way.

"You are dressed like a scholar, and you don't have the slightest fierceness. You are clearly a handsome scholar. No wonder Ye Kai didn't expect your name when you reported your name." Yang Lihua looked at Wang Junlin at close range. , can't help but be amazed.

Speaking of this, Yang Lihua suddenly saw Yu Zimo, and said with a smile: "This kid looks fierce."

Wang Junlin said: "This is Yu Zimo, the grandson of Yu Dadu, and Zimo has not yet come to greet the eldest princess."

Yu Zimo agreed, ran over and knelt down on one knee like Wang Junlin did just now, and said, "Boy Yu Zimo, I pay my respects to Your Royal Highness."

Yang Lihua glanced at Yu Zimo, snorted coldly, and said, "So it's Yu Ju Luo's grandson, no wonder he was born so ugly."

Wang Junlin knew why Yang Lihua was not happy to hear Yu Juluo's name, because all the nine elders who founded the Sui Dynasty participated in the massacre of Emperor Xuan's family before the Northern Zhou Dynasty.
