Datang's free and easy concubine

Chapter 1729 Ye Hou
Wang Yuanhui and Wang Qingyun left the train station with their guards and walked slowly in the dark.

"Although I didn't see lightning and thunder today, it was a worthwhile trip to see the electric lights. The electric lights are as bright and dazzling as the rumors say." Wang Yuanhui said with emotion.

Wang Qingyun nodded and said: "Yes, no wonder Su Cheng wants to make electric lights to illuminate the train. It really works. In the future, the train from Chang'an to Luoyang can also pass through at night."

"Take the train from Luoyang to Chang'an at night, and it's just dawn, and the gates of the city are also open. It's wonderful!"

Wang Yuanhui stroked his beard and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if you arrive at the train station at night. Su Cheng has built so many inns and restaurants around the train station, and they can be put to good use."

Wang Qingyun was a little greedy and said: "Not only trains can make money, but this train station can also make a lot of money. Together with Luoyang's train station, the profits are quite objective!"

Now that everyone knows that building railways can make a fortune, Wang Yuanhui lost the smile on his face and sighed slightly: "I have been walking around a lot these days. It is very difficult for the imperial court to let us go and allow us to build railways." !"

Wang Qingyun couldn't help frowning when he heard the words, and said in a deep voice: "Hmph, other aristocratic families keep saying that they are in the same breath, but now they stand by and watch!"

"Although the emperor is rich in name, but the court is still short of money to support so many people. How can the emperor be willing to let it go?"

"Actually speaking, this matter has to fall on Su Cheng! If Su Cheng wants to continue building the railway, he must have a way!"

Wang Yuanhui shook his head slightly and said, "It is already lenient for the emperor to allow him to build the railway from Luoyang to Chang'an. What else can he do?"

Wang Qingyun said firmly: "I don't know what he can do. But as long as he thinks, he will definitely find a way. There is nothing he can't do in this world, but he doesn't want to! Hey, why doesn't Su Cheng want to? This is such a good property, who would think that their own property is too much? We should find an opportunity and let Sheng Nan persuade him."

Wang Yuanhui pondered: "I have to say, Su Cheng is indeed a gentleman in this world."

Wang Qingyun didn't say anything after hearing this. Although he often muttered something, he actually admired Su Cheng in his heart.

While the two were talking, the guard leading the way suddenly said, "Third Master, son, there are people ahead! There are quite a few people!"

Wang Yuanhui and Wang Qingyun immediately reined in the horses when they heard the words, and all the guards beside them also reined in, put their hands on the handles of their knives, and waited intently.

It was already late at night, so how could there be people in this wilderness?

It's just that this is the outskirts of Chang'an, at the foot of the emperor, so there are still people in the green forest who dare to block the road and kill them?

"Many shadowy people are riding horses. I don't know what their origin is. The third master and the young master are very honorable and not easy to be in danger. The younger ones think it's better to go back for now." The guard whispered.

Wang Yuanhui said coldly: "What kind of robbers are there in the vicinity of Chang'an? Even if there are, you all practice martial arts and fight every day, how many little thieves are you afraid of?"

To be able to be a guard in front of the lords and sons of aristocratic families, you don't have to be weak in the green forest robbers, so even if there are green forest robbers, you are not afraid of being called a small thief.

They were just afraid that the master and young master would be disturbed.

Wang Qingyun is not a scholar who has no strength to restrain a chicken, so he said coldly: "Let's see who is playing tricks here in the middle of the night!"

"The manor is ahead, you don't have to go back, just go straight forward, if you really encounter a small thief, let's rush to kill it!" Wang Yuanhui said in a deep voice.

It's not like he hasn't encountered fighting in all these years of running around. The guards at home are all highly skilled in martial arts, with excellent swords and bows, and the mounts are all first-class horses. Even if they are ambushed by thieves, they can If you rush over easily, the thieves will not be able to catch up even if they want to.

After hearing this, the guards no longer objected. They were not afraid of these thieves in the first place, but they were eager to try.So they surrounded Wang Yuanhui and Wang Qingyun, and then walked forward slowly.

One by one, they pressed their hands on the hilt, ready to draw their swords to charge at any time. Even Wang Qingyun held down the sword hanging on the saddle, ready to charge at any time.

For a moment, Wang Qingyun was a little expectant. He had never met or killed a thief when he was so old.

He has learned the six arts of a gentleman, but some of them have really come in handy.

A group of people stepped forward cautiously, there were indeed many people indistinctly in front of them, and there were still burning torches and lanterns.

Wang Yuan couldn't help raising his eyebrows when he met him. How can anyone block the road with torches and lanterns?Isn't this too ostentatious?
"This doesn't look like robbery!" Wang Yuanhui mused.

It really doesn't look like robbery, but the guards still dare not be careless after hearing this.

At this moment, a voice came from the front: "Brother is here, we have waited in the middle of the night for nothing."

Wang Yuanhui was slightly startled when he heard this, and then he laughed and said, "So it's you, I thought there were bandits in the green forest in the suburbs of Chang'an!"

Facing the light of the fire, Cui Zhi smiled and said, "This place is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, how could there be robbers in the forest, we are here specially waiting for you."

Wang Yuanhui drove his horse forward, and said with a smile: "You don't go back to sleep in the middle of the night, what are you waiting for me in this wilderness?"

Cui Qunlang said with a smile: "Today, watching the electric lights is fun, and it doesn't matter if you sleep or not. Thinking that your manor is the closest, we will come together, so we can talk and drink."

What does it mean that my manor is the closest?Our manor is about the same distance from Sujiazhuang, how far can we go?

Therefore, these old guys are waiting for him here, definitely not for drinking.

The manor is ahead, what else can Wang Yuanhui say?
Are you keeping people out?

Besides, if you stop tonight, you won't be able to stop tomorrow.

Wang Yuanhui laughed and said: "It's also the light that makes me feel happy, and I'm also very relieved, so let's talk over wine."

Li Yuandao glanced left and right, and asked suspiciously, "Huh? Why didn't you see Shengnan's niece?"

Wang Yuanhui explained with a smile: "Princess Changle and Princess Yuzhang are both talking about her and want her to stay overnight at the Duke's Mansion. I agree."

Cui Qun said with a meaningful smile: "Oh, so that's what happened!"

Wang Yuanhui laughed and said: "If you bring Sheng Nan back together, you probably have to wait here until midnight, how can we have a drink with you!"

Cui Zhi waved his hands and said with a smile: "Let's not talk about that, I saw the generator and the electric light today, what's your opinion?"
