Meng, the commander of the Yunzhou Zhechong Commandery and the lieutenant of Zhiguo, carefully selected two personal soldiers from his personal guards who knew some etiquette, were proficient in writing, and had a good eye. He wanted them to be responsible for serving and taking care of the daily life, food, clothing, housing and transportation of Envoy Huangfu.

Although Meng's flattery and fawning were obviously out of place, he immediately "won" Envoy Huangfu's stern rebuke, "How can you be so arrogant and extravagant on an official mission?"

However, running errands, boiling water for washing, helping with miscellaneous trivial chores, and being very familiar with the entire Jinchuan Posthouse, the human relations, and the environmental conditions, these two local snakes are still much more convenient and handy than those eunuchs in the Royal Guards and the talented soldiers of the Zuo Qianniu Guards.

Therefore, Wang Jing, the eunuch who temporarily took over the eunuch supervisor He Wei, who was on a mission outside, took care of and managed the envoy Huangfu and all public and private affairs, and still adopted an attitude of turning a blind eye and tacitly allowing it.

But no matter what, no matter what, it was a clear order that the two guards of the old lieutenant Meng were strictly prohibited from entering and leaving the main hall where the envoy Huangfu was without the permission of Wang Jing, the eunuch.

At the beginning, these two quick-witted guards opened many quail egg-sized holes on all the leeward windows in the main hall and main room to ensure that the superiors from the capital Chang'an would not be injured by the excessive carbon gas generated by heating in the house, so that the air inside and outside the house could flow as much as possible.

For this, they were praised by the head of the inner court, Wang Jing, and soon they were rewarded with a handful of Kaiyuan Tongbao copper coins by the part-time postmaster, Lao Meng.

Since the time of Youzheng, after eating mutton soup, chicken, pickled vegetables, and pancakes, the internal attendant Huangfu Xia locked himself in the main hall and main room alone.

He also ordered the head of the inner court, Wang Jing, that no one should disturb his peace unless he personally ordered it.

The internal attendant Huangfu Xia cooked, ground, mixed and prepared Tuanlong tea by himself, which really has the real effect of calming the mind and nourishing the spleen and stomach.

After drinking three cups of Tuanlong tea, Huangfu Zhengshi, who had completely calmed down, came to the desk, knelt down, ground ink, picked up a pen, laid out the paper, and considered and thought for a long time, and then, carefully, carefully, and wrote a secret report.

Huangfu Zhengshi originally wanted to wait for the ink on the secret report to dry thoroughly, and then put them directly into the special secret report lock wooden box.

Then, it was locked, sealed, and sealed with wax. It was then handed over to the eunuch Wang Jing, who sent it to the capital Chang'an by a special person at an expedited speed of 800 miles to be presented to the real boss of the Royal Eunuch Department, the Left Eunuch Sun Ding. Then, Sun Ding, the Grand Eunuch, directly sent it to the eunuch Wang Jing.Then it was presented to the Empress, who personally reviewed it.

Just sitting at the desk for a while, for a while, I don't know why, a strong and intense sleepiness came over me, like a surging tide.

For a moment, Huangfu Zhengshi felt that his eyelids were about to collapse and he couldn't open them. In desperation, he had to put aside the important task of sealing the wax secret report for the time being, and came to the front of the bed drowsily, slept with his clothes on, and fell asleep.

However, Huangfu Xia, the internal attendant, fell asleep suddenly, and even a little ridiculously with his clothes on. He only slept from the third quarter of the evening, and could no longer sleep at the first quarter of the second hour of the evening.

Perhaps because the carriage that Envoy Huangfu rode in was too bumpy on the winding and rugged official roads and post roads in the deep mountains and valleys of Taihang Mountain to Jinchuan Posthouse, he was bored and took naps one after another in the swaying carriage.

From the time the Royal Guards drove up the mountain road into the Taihang Mountains until they finally arrived at Jinchuan Posthouse, Envoy Huangfu had been sleeping soundly in the carriage for seven or eight hours.

Even in broad daylight, Huangfu Xia, who had slept enough, had been holding back a lot of troubles in his heart for some time. However, for such sensitive and confidential matters, the old eunuch of the inner guard could neither speak openly to outsiders nor take the initiative to mention it to his trusted eunuchs.

Therefore, lying on the bed, Huangfu Zhengshi was like a vendor selling food in the street market, baking Hu pancakes in the naan pit, tossing and turning, thinking over and over, with a lot of worries, and no matter what, he could no longer sleep peacefully.

Such a terrible situation and condition continued until the end of the second watch. Huangfu Zhengshi, who was overworked and worried, fell into a sub-sleep state again, which was like a dream, half asleep and half awake, close to sleep, but not really sleep.

It was like returning to the Taihang Mountain Road carriage, tossing and turning, and he fell into a hazy sleep with one nap after another. At about the first quarter of the fourth watch, Huangfu Xia Nei Jieshi suddenly had a sudden and strong heart palpitation, which woke him up completely from the dreamlike state.

Huangfu Zhengshi turned over and quietly got off the bed. He stood there in a daze, thinking carefully about the strange scene he saw in his dream when he had just had an inexplicable heart palpitation.

After careful consideration, even among the many martial arts masters in the Royal Guards, he was known for his calmness andHuangfu Zhengshi, who was known for his boldness and carefulness, could not help but change his expression suddenly and his hair stood on end. It can be said that in an instant, he was frightened and broke out in cold sweat.

Because in Huangfu Zhengshi's dream, he seemed to see Shi Jing Nei Geshi, who had been disemboweled by someone, with blood all over his body, and the bloody liver, gallbladder, spleen, stomach, kidneys and intestines flowing out of his stomach, dragging out blood all over the ground. With a miserable smile on his face, he walked towards Huangfu Zhengshi, walking with difficulty, and speaking miserably from his mouth, which was gushing with blood foam.

"Old Huangfu, I am incompetent and have failed in my mission. I really deserve this!"

"It is only by luck that I have not failed in the oath I once made!"

"Hehehe, my time has come. I will go first and go to Naihe and Huangquan. Old Huangfu, I hope you will think twice before you act. Wish yourself good luck and take care of yourself!"

After a long time, Huangfu Zhengshi came back to his senses from the horror of the previous dream.

He touched his forehead with his hand, pinched his "temples" with his thumb and middle finger, and then listened to the sharp and cold wind outside the house. Then he muttered to himself: "Could it be that this terrifying nightmare we had was really Shi Jing's warning to us in our dreams?!"

"If this is the case, I think at this moment, Shi Jing and the others should be in Lingqiu or Laiyuan's post station. There must have been a shocking change that is too much to describe!"

When he muttered to himself, Huangfu Zhengshi was frightened again. His face changed drastically. He was about to speak and tell the guards on duty outside the door about some important things. Suddenly, the auricle of his left ear twitched a few times without any warning. He frowned and concentrated, but heard a few very light footsteps on the bluestone road in the middle of the courtyard.

If the main hall and main room here were not occupied by a master like Huangfu Zhengshi, who was skilled in martial arts, it would be impossible for anyone in the royal guards to have such a sensitive and extraordinary six senses and ears to be able to hear from the very light footsteps on the bluestone road in the middle of the courtyard that there were at least three masters of light body skills and excellent martial arts.
