Chapter 508: City Gate Interception
Si Kong Ling could easily figure out the reason. I am afraid that the Su family and Han Yu did not want Su Hengyi to be distracted by Su Wenyue's affairs, so they did not tell Su Hengyi about the matter. In this case, he would naturally not remind Su Hengyi , and didn’t want to arouse Su Hengyi’s suspicion.
Si Kong Ling arrived at the city gate, but it was not smooth sailing. He was stopped before he could leave the city gate.
The closer the day is to kill the Marquis of Bei'an, the more stringent the guards in Chang'an City are. Everyone must be searched whether entering or exiting. Even if someone is as powerful as Sikong Ling, the soldiers guarding the city will not go too far, but they still need to be inspected according to the rules. .
"What's going on? You know who's on the carriage, but you dare to stop him. You're too impatient to live."
Such a matter does not need Si Kong Ling to come forward, Qingzhu can handle it directly. He said arrogantly to the intercepting soldiers, with the intention of using power to suppress others, which is not to say that Qingzhu is that kind. Those who like to use power to bully others are not necessarily the best and most effective method in Chang'an.
Sure enough, hearing Qingzhu's loud tone and look of contempt on them, the soldiers guarding the city not only lacked temper, but also became more and more cautious, especially the carriage with the mark of the Sikong family on it, and the people in the car might be members of the Sikong family. The master is not something that a small person like him can afford to offend. If they were in normal times, they would have let him go, but now they can't. The superiors have issued an order. No matter who it is, unless there is a warrant from Prime Minister Wang, otherwise Always get checked.
"Why are you still standing there? I don't know if my master is in a hurry to leave! He didn't wink at all. I really don't know how he managed to get away. He's not afraid of offending the noble man and risking his life." Qingzhu saw that the soldiers still refused to move away. His words became more and more rude, and he even threatened people's lives.
The leading soldier stepped forward bravely, with a smile on his face, and said flatteringly: "Don't be angry, young master. It's not because I dare to embarrass a noble man, but I just have a strict order from above, and I really don't dare to disobey it. If you let him go without checking, I'm afraid he will be dealt with immediately. I also ask you to be considerate of my difficulties and let me check for a while. If there are no problems, I will let him go immediately. I will never delay your noble affairs. ”
When Qingzhu saw the soldiers acting like this, he also knew that what they were talking about was true. Moreover, the master had already guessed this situation and had already given instructions, so he said: "Okay, in that case, I understand your difficulties. If you want to check, check it out, but hurry up, my master is not very good-tempered. If he gets angry after a long delay, not even you, even I can't bear it, so you can take care of yourself. "
"It's natural, it's natural. Don't worry, young master, we will speed up." Seeing Qingzhu relent, the leader finally breathed a sigh of relief and immediately ordered the soldiers to search. He did not forget to warn: "Hurry up, everyone. Be careful, check and check, don't damage the nobles' things, otherwise you will get some good results. "
After the leader finished speaking, he smiled flatteringly at Qingzhu, a bit flattering.
Qingzhu covered his nose at this time and said in disgust: "What smells so bad? It's so stinking to death!"
The soldier originally thought Qingzhu was angry, so he deliberately mocked him, but before he could speak, he also smelled an extremely strong odor. It was indeed very smoky. Following the odor, he looked over and saw several men pushing him. The two carriages didn't know what was going out of the city, so they waited behind Sikong Mansion's carriage because they needed to be searched.
"What's in here? Why does it smell so bad? Is it going to smoke people to death?" The soldier was not so polite to the men and said angrily.
"Master, here is the rancid water we collected from the restaurant. It is used to feed the pigs. Due to the delay, it has been kept for two days and it will naturally become rancid and smelly. It is just something used to feed the pigs. It is rancid. It doesn’t matter if it smells bad, it’s just for feeding pigs, and pigs can be picky about their food!” The man said innocently, as if he was used to it and didn’t care about it at all. A rancid smell.
The soldier was even more disgusted after hearing what the man said. He covered his mouth because the smell almost made him spit out.
"You guys go check it out and see if there is anything wrong?" the leader ordered the soldiers. Although the soldiers were not happy, there was an order from above and they had to do it. If someone was let go because of negligence, They can't afford to take the blame from above.
At this time, Qingzhu's voice sounded again, with disgust and impatience in his tone: "I said there is nothing to check for the sour water in the two cars. How could anyone be hiding in such a smelly and sour thing? Let them know quickly. Leave immediately, it’s okay if you piss me off, but if you piss off our master, let’s see who of you can bear it!”
The soldier actually couldn't stand it. After hearing Qingzhu's words, he didn't let him go immediately. He passed by a few men, held his nose and stirred the sour water a few times with a stick. He didn't find anything unusual, and then he waved his hand. Let several men leave immediately.
The men left, and the rancid smell finally went away. The soldier re-checked Sikong Mansion and his party. Seeing that there were no problems with the boxes and things at the back, he set his sights on the carriage where Qingzhu was. He obviously wanted to get up there. examine.
"Why are you looking inside? My master is inside, how can you peep at it at will?!" Qingzhu said angrily when he saw the soldiers looking at the carriage.
"This little brother is serious. How dare I peek at your master? It's just..."
The soldier was interrupted by Qingzhu before he finished speaking, with some annoyance in his words: "Just what, stop talking nonsense, you said you want to check, I let you check, what else do you want, get out of the way immediately, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!"
"Brother, calm down, I have no choice, it's the order from the top, we must check the carriage before people can pass, please understand me." The soldier felt bitter, meeting such a domineering and unreasonable person with status, they could only think they were unlucky, not to mention filial piety, they were angry, and had to smile and deal with it carefully.
"Don't push your luck, just based on your status, you dare to say you want to search our master's carriage, don't be shameless!"
After Qingzhu said this, those soldiers, no matter how patient they were, couldn't hold on to their smiles. They wanted to be tough, but they had many concerns. At this time, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and Sikong Yu poked his head out.
"What happened? Why keep delaying?" Sikong Ling frowned and asked unhappily.
The soldier looked up and saw that the person in the carriage was not the ordinary master of the Sikong family, but the young master of the Sikong family, Sikong Ling.
