Chapter 451 Gao Sui, a man dressed as a woman
When the emperor entered the palace from the main gate, five or six eunuchs and palace maids in casual clothes who had gone out of the palace to purchase things came out from the side door.
The last palace maid was tall, kept her head down, and walked with a limp.
The guards at the gate were not surprised and knew without thinking that he had been beaten with a stick.
After the few people left the palace, the tall palace maid was left behind because she walked slowly.
She walked to the street corner, hired a carriage, and headed towards the city gate.
The capital city is now a place where people can only enter but not leave, so when the carriage arrived at the city gate, it was stopped by the soldiers guarding the gate.
The woman lifted the curtain and showed a token, and the soldier quickly let her pass with a respectful look on his face.
The carriage successfully left the city gate. The woman turned her head to look at the distant capital, tears welling in her eyes as she said, "Regent, Your Majesty! I will definitely be able to successfully infiltrate Black River City and capture the fake Regent and his companions!"
That’s right, this palace maid is Gao Sui in disguise.
Gao Sui was a eunuch, and he would be exposed as soon as he opened his mouth. This was a brilliant idea he came up with after thinking about it all night.
After all, women's voices are higher and thinner, so it won't arouse suspicion.
In addition, he has fair skin and a handsome face, so it doesn't look out of place for him to dress up as a woman.
Apart from her slightly larger frame, she looked like a pretty young woman at first glance.
"I'm so smart that I can even come up with this idea!"
"The Prince Regent praised me for my cleverness. He's such a good judge of character! I'm a true genius!"
Gao Sui is thirty-five years old this year and has been in the palace for twenty years.
It is said that serving the emperor is like serving a tiger. In addition, the emperor's temperament is unpredictable, so Gao Sui has been living cautiously and walking on thin ice for the past twenty years.
Although his future was uncertain this time when he left the palace, he felt more relaxed than ever before as he breathed the air of freedom.
"Madam," the driver in front said, "We need to reach the inn thirty miles away before dark. We have to hurry. The road will be bumpy. I wonder if Madam can bear it?"
"I can bear it, I can bear it! The faster the better! The faster you drive, the more reward I will give you!" Gao Suiying said.
As soon as Gao Sui finished speaking, there was a "bang" and the carriage sped away like a cannonball.
Gao Shunsuke bounced up from his seat and hit the roof of the carport.
His buttocks, which had been hit by twenty boards, fell heavily on the cushion, and he grimaced in pain.
"How do you drive? Do you know how to drive?"
Gao Sui was so angry that he kept cursing, holding on to the frame of the bicycle tightly with his hands. He felt like he was about to fly.
The driver didn't hear anything and shouted excitedly, "Madam! I've been driving for so long, and this is the first time I've encountered a customer who makes such a request! I'm the best driver in the capital, and this time I can finally show off my skills!"
…
In Heihe City, the first snow of this winter fell last night, and the snow stopped after dawn.
Today happens to be a day off for the school, and early in the morning, Heihe Village was filled with laughter.
The dolls gathered together to make snowmen, play snowball fights, and go sledding. It was so lively.
Xiao Jiuer felt that making a snowman was a bit boring, so she rejected the enthusiastic invitation from the snowman-making group.
And playing snowball fights!
Without the power of space, she would not be able to defeat him with her short arms and legs;
Using the power of space feels like cheating.
So her favorite thing to do is sledding.
This year, every household made a sled for their children. The villagers now have a better life and are more concerned about their children's needs. So, they made the sleds before the snow even started.
The ground of the martial arts training ground is flat. The children sit on the sled, pulling each other. After playing for a while, they feel it is not enough.
Xiao Jiuer's little face was blown red by the wind, and when she spoke, a cloud of white air came out of her mouth.
"Let's go play!" Xiao Jiuer pointed outside the village, "Let's go to the hilly area!"
"Okay!" The friends dragged the sled out of Heihe Village.
Outside the village, the army was training vigorously in the snow and ice.
Ever since they learned that Yan Ping's father was the regent, the army has become more motivated to train.
I can understand that.
In the past, they thought they were rebels, doing things that would cost them their heads;
Now, with the emergence of the Regent, they have transformed themselves into the army of justice.
They will fight for justice and for the Regent, how can they not be excited?
The children dragged their sleds through the surrounding villages and attracted a large group of children, who all came to the city gate together.
The city gates were closed.
A dozen villagers stood motionless on the city wall on guard duty, and the atmosphere was inexplicably tense.
"Xiao Jiuer, we may not be able to get out."
The dolls were talking at once.
"I don't know when I can go out of town to play."
Since the city wall was built, children from all over the country have hardly ever gone out.
"My father said that we have to wait until Xiao Jiu'er's grandfather, the Regent, defeats the emperor. Only then will the world be at peace and Black River City will be safe."
"It's okay!" Xiao Jiuer, dressed like a little bear, walked ahead, "I'll take you guys there!"
Today, Chuantianhou is leading the guard. Ever since the identity of the Regent was announced to the world, the level of guard duty in Heihe City has been raised.
"Uncle Hou, open the door! We want to go out and play!" Little Jiuer called sweetly.
The other little kids also shouted, "Uncle Hou, please open the door! We really want to go out and play!"
Chuantianhou’s surname is Hou. Everyone used to call him the Second in Command, but now that he has joined the army, everyone calls him Old Hou.
Lao Hou laughed and said, "Hey little guys, do you want to go sledding?"
"Yes!" The dolls looked pleading.
Not far outside the city gate there is a long slope that is perfect for sledding.
The old marquis looked at the tent outside the city gate with an embarrassed expression.
These tents were built temporarily, and the relatives of Master Xuanjiahu who had come to seek refuge lived in them.
In the past few days, a number of people have come to seek refuge in the name of Master Xuanjiahu's relatives, but because Master Xuanjiahu has not yet come to Heihe City, the identities of these people cannot be finally confirmed.
Now is a special period. To be on the safe side, Zhao Xingjian asked the villagers to set up tents outside the city for these people to live in.
Military tents can withstand strong winds and heavy snow, and are also quite warm, so these people will not be neglected.
"Boss, why don't we stop going out to play?" Old Hou said in embarrassment, "There are a lot of strangers outside the city. It's not safe to go out to play."
"Don't be afraid!" The little dumpling patted his plump body, "I'm here!"
The old marquis was amused. He was worried about Xiao Jiuer playing outside the city gate, but he didn't want to spoil her fun.
"How about this, I go out with you guys?"
"Great!" The dolls clapped their hands happily.
After the city gate opened, the children rushed out pulling their sleds, came to the slope, and started a skiing competition happily.
After playing for a while, the children saw that Lao Hou was a little bored standing there alone, so they enthusiastically invited him over.
"Uncle Hou, come play with us!"
Lao Hou, an old boy who has been single for forty years, was also a little moved at this moment.
“Here I come!”
Lao Hou borrowed a doll's sled and just as he stood on it, the dolls pushed him down with a smile.
As Lao Hou's sled rushed down the slope, a woman suddenly appeared in front of him.
"Get out of the way!" Old Hou, who was standing on the sled, couldn't stop the car at all and shouted anxiously.
Gao Sui, who was walking with his head down, raised his head and saw a man flying towards him on a sled.
"Ah!" Gao Sui couldn't dodge in time and let out a scream.
It seemed like a fateful encounter.
"Bang!"
The two men collided and both fell to the ground.
Mouth to mouth, tightly closed...
