The red sun in winter has turned to the west mountain
Only when you sit on the VIP guests with Xu Ziling can you check in. Near Xi Neiyuan, Kou Zhong in the luxurious living room on the top floor of the "Ziyan Pavilion" at the northwest corner of Tai Chi Palace stood up and walked to the large window that opened north to look out.
This "Purple Smoke Pavilion" is exquisite and luxurious in both appearance and internal structure, just like the window decorated with hollow carvings in front of Kou Zhong. The fine wood exuding a slight natural atmosphere, the exquisitely carved beautiful patterns, and the silk satin window screens shining in the sunlight all amaze Kou Zhong and the others.
The eyes were concentrated in a unique garden on the east side of Xi Neiyuan. Kou Zhong sighed a little more in his heart. From such a high place, his vision could just jump over the solid city wall between Xi Neiyuan and Taiji Palace, and he could see the scenery of the garden. The elegant and quiet garden courtyard was unique in shape, which was integrated with the surrounding natural environment, making people feel no trace of artificial transformation after the day of the day. Compared with other palaces and courtyards in the palace, there was a fresh atmosphere.
The main building is located at the southern end, and the north is a stone mountain with a lake with a winding bridge on it. The artificial lake comes to the hall and is transformed into a winding stream, decorated with strange stones.
The water flows around the west side of Xuan and flows into the fan-shaped lake in Xuannan, causing the rippling effect of the lake's shore, which has a wilderness artistic conception. The relationship between water and buildings is handled extremely well, which is obviously due to the conception of experts.
Kou Zhong admired the food and tasted it. After a while, he turned around and asked the pretty maid standing respectfully on one side and said: Sister, where is it?
The maid kept secretly looking at these two good men who were second only to Yuan Yueze, moving and still, and exuding charm all over her body. When she heard this, her face was blushing and said shyly: The young marshal has broken the wicked, and she just called me the name of her. There is the princess's mansion where our Princess Pingyang lives, "Yiyuxuan"
The four words "Princess Pingyang" are heard. Kou Zhong, who was about to tease the shy and pretty maid, immediately stood there as if he was stupid.
Xu Ziling, who had been drinking tea leisurely beside him, frowned and said to the maid: Girl, please go down first. We already know the evening banquet and will definitely attend it on time.
The maid said respectfully: If the young marshal and Mr. Xu have given instructions, please call me as long as you want. I will be at the entrance of the stairs on the next floor.
After the maid stepped down, Xu Ziling sighed and said: Why did you make Li Tang feel uneasy? Before you saw Li Xiuning, you became a fool by just hearing the name. I see you are helpless.
Kou Zhong came back to his senses, sat down with a wry smile, and said to himself: Fortunately, only the three brothers Li Shimin who just greeted us. If Li Xiuning came too, I would probably be ugly.
Xu Ziling said angrily: It is also good to let those people who worship you see the true face of the "Young Marshal" in their hearts.
Kou Zhong came over with a smile and said: I heard that my mother and Brother Yuan live in the "Lingyan Pavilion" not far away. Should we go over and take a look?
Xu Ziling shook his head and said: No, we should try not to meet more often, otherwise we will be passive.
Kou Zhong smiled and said: Anyway, there is still some time before Li Jian becomes the banquet we prepared for at night, so why don’t we dive...
Before he finished speaking, a loud noise suddenly came from the southwest direction
The two of them came to the other window and saw dust flying in the distance, not knowing what big thing happened
Tiance Mansion Study Room
The talented and wise Li Shimin lives in the upper seat, and the people sitting on both sides are all his confidants who are highly valued by him: Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Changsun Wuji, Duan Zhixuan, Pang Yu, Yuchi Jingde, Li Jing
Pang Yu of the information system was the first to report Yuan Yueze's whereabouts during this day: Since the emperor summoned Yuan Yueze, he went out with his concubine Bai Qing'er, who was in a closed position today. The two of them stood shoulder to shoulder. The relationship seemed not simple. Finally, they arrived at "Yu Xinglong" under the name of the second Miss Song Family in Dongcheng City. Since the Qin King welcomed the young marshal into the city and arranged it, our spy had the latest news that he took Bai Qing'er and Yun Yuzhen to the direction of "Bei Li". I think they should be gambling.
All brothels and gambling houses in Chang'an are concentrated in Pingkangli. Because the place is close to the north gate of Chang'an, it is also called "Beili".
Pang Yu continued: Among the other wives who came with him, "Empress Yin" and "Rakshasa Girl" were missing; the lady from Dugu then personally visited the emperor and talked about something; Wei Zhenzhen went to the West City Pharmacy Shop to personally take medicine for several concubines; Mrs. Dongming, Qianjin from Pegasus Ranch, Empress Xiao, and the girl named Yin Xiaoji were all stayed in Lingyan Pavilion to play the piano and sing songs
The people in the hall felt powerless: almost all the girls in Yuan Yueze's family had martial arts. Among the girls who came with him, except for Xiao He'er, Song Yuzhi, and Shang Xiuxun, who was not a super expert?
Women like Zhu Yuyan, Shan Meixian, Fu Junmao and others are even more cultivating. No one can detect them when entering and leaving the palace.
When I thought of Bai Qing'er again, Li Shimin, who was originally indifferent, suddenly frowned and said: I heard Yuan Yueze's introduction that day and only said that Bai Qing'er was a friend who wanted to come to Chang'an to see him. How true do you think this statement is?
Du Ruhui, who is thin and tall, has a clear appearance, and is full of books, stood up and said: Ruhui thinks this is definitely a lie. Bai Qing'er is Qian Duguan's concubine. How could he be with Yuan Yueze? Could it be that Qian Duguan is afraid of Yuan Yueze and has secretly surrendered to him? Bai Qing'er is probably the gift given to him by Qian Duguan.
Hua Cong Lao Shi Duan Zhixuan agreed: Based on Zhixuan's experience, Bai Qing'er is clearly... Hey! It is clearly the eldest daughter of Huanghua. The scheming Qian Duguan and Bai Qing'er's husband and wife may be just a cover, but in fact they were taken out to save their lives when necessary. With her appearance of inverting all living beings, she can indeed fascinate anyone. The selfish Qian Duguan pretended to surrender to Yuan Yueze, but in fact she was planning a conspiracy behind her back.
Pang Yu also nodded and said: However, Yuan Yueze is not an ordinary person. The latest news from Luoyang said that Chen Luoyan had personally led 30,000 elite troops to the south. I am afraid that he would only give money to a severe blow, so that he would never dare to have a bad idea again.
Li Shimin's brows became tighter and tighter
Xiangyang is the most important military center south of Luoyang, and it is a treasure land coveted by every force.
Half a year ago, in order to defeat Wang Shichong, Li Mi personally went to Xiangyang to lobby Qian Duguan, which shows the importance of Xiangyang.
If it falls into Li Shimin's hands, he can not only restrain Xiao Xian and Zhu Can, but also suppress Yuan Yueze in front and Du Fuwei in the back, and even use it as capital to persuade surrender.
But once it falls into Yuan Yueze's hands, it will be a bad idea. Luoyang and Xiangyang are connected together. Even if there is no threat from the Great Xia army on the flanks in the future, it will be even more difficult for Li Tang to capture Luoyang.
But now it's too late to reach, but I can only sigh at what I can do
Li Shimin sighed in his heart that Shen Luoyan had a good grasp of the opportunity to send troops. Taking advantage of Yuan Yueze's entry into the pass, she attracted all Li Tang's attention. She could finally start to implement the expansion plan without being threatened.
Changsun Wuji wanted to speak with a puzzled look on his face, but was taken into consideration by Li Shimin and said in his eyes: If Wuji has something to say, please say it directly.
Changsun Wuji hesitated: Mr. Chai Shao has just come here in person and told Wuji that he would attend the banquet held in Tai Chi Palace the next day. Wuji asked the King of Qin to agree.
Li Shimin calmly said: Since that's the case, please tell him that Shimin decided to win a seat for him.
Just as Changsun Wuji was about to touch, a sudden sound of rapid footsteps came from outside. A soldier ran and shouted: Report to King Qin, something happened to the 'Lingyan Pavilion'!
The faces of the people in the hall changed drastically
Yuan Yueze, Yun Yuzhen, Bai Qing'er and three others walked out of the East City, crossed Xinghua, Chongde and the two yards, and began to wander around.
The most powerful and wealthy people around the palace are, and the purpose is to be easy to cling to the royal family, so they compete to build houses and have the benefits of shopping. Therefore, several lifangs north of Dongsiliang City are known as Jinfang.
The carriages on the spacious streets were decorated with gorgeous clothes, and the pedestrians were dressed in bright clothes.
The surrounding houses are filled with courtyards, lush forests and towering pavilions, and a magnificent corruption atmosphere.
Yun Yuzhen and Bai Qing'er whispered with arms around. Yuan Yueze looked around with interest at the dazzling array of goods in front of various shops, and the vendors and buyers who were bargaining in a hurry. Then he turned his head to the two who were laughing for some reason: What are you laughing at?
Yun Yuzhen hurriedly threw her eyes to Yuan Yueze and said softly: I'm telling Qing'er's sister that his husband fell from the sky and killed the master of the Ming Zun Sect with one sword.
Yuan Yueze said nostalgically: That was something that happened several years ago
Bai Qing'er interrupted: Qing'er seems to be unlucky to enjoy the feeling of flying into the air with his sword.
Yun Yuzhen gently pinched her cute Yao nose with her bare hands: Fortunately, it was too late for you to meet your husband, otherwise you would have fallen in love with him as desperately as Wanjing that day, but I was caught by that sword!
Bai Qing'er's jade face was slightly red, and she pinched Yun Yuzhen with her backhand, and she giggled and dodged her.
Yuan Yueze shook his head and laughed. With Shan Wanjing's independent and strong personality, of course, it is impossible to be easily attracted to him. At that time, he was carrying a misty aura that did not belong to the world. Even Shan Meixian could not resist it, let alone Shan Wanjing
But now those auras have almost disappeared, so Bai Qing'er won't be so easily lost when facing Yuan Yueze.
After passing Yankangfang, they turned to Yong'an Street. The Yong'an Canal, which is more than ten meters wide, crossed north and south, flowing through the front.
A magnificent stone bridge over the canal
Yong'an Canal connects to the Wei River in the north of the city, and supplying half of Chang'an's water use is an important water transportation route. This "Yuema Bridge" is the most spectacular stone bridge in Chang'an.
The straight Yong'an Canal runs through the north and south city gates parallel to Yong'an Street. Boats and oars are coming and going, and cars and horses are running up the bridge. There are huge houses and rich houses around.
Bai Qing'er was interested and whispered: I heard that the 'Yang Gong Treasure House' is here. If the master didn't tell him, he would think that the treasure had not been moved.
Yun Yuzhen frowned slightly when she heard this. Before she could speak, Yuan Yueze turned his head and smiled at Bai Qing'er: Then I will take you to the empty treasure house another day...
Before he finished speaking, he saw Yun Yuzhen constantly shining his eyes.
Yuan Yueze laughed and put it on her arm. He smelled her tender and fragrant face with a big mouth, and praised: It smells so good!
The pedestrians on the way looked at the three of them and talked a lot.
Confucian scholars' contemptuous eyes, men's surprised eyes, women's envious eyes, and children's puzzled eyes, almost all of them can burn the three of them.
Yuan Yueze posted to Yun Yuzhen's ear and sent a message to her: I noticed the person who was following us. This is called a trick to confuse the enemy. Yuzhen cooperates with her.
Bai Qing'er saw that Yun Yuzhen was erecting her tall breasts, looking very enjoyable, and couldn't help but twist her pretty face to the side with a slightly red look and spat in a low voice.
Yuan Yueze Se-mi-mi said: Does Qing'er want to come here too?
Bai Qing'er was shocked and flashed to the side, but saw that Yuan Yueze and Yun Yuzhen had already walked forward, so she could only stomp the lotus feet hatefully and follow them.
In a moment, the three of them entered the prosperous 'Beili'
I was just shopping aimlessly, but I actually walked to such a place in a daze
Yun Yuzhen pressed Yuan Yueze's arm and rubbed the pair of soft jade-feng on Yuan Yueze's arm. Mèi smiled and said: Do we want to find a gambling shop to play a few times? I heard my sister-in-law talk about my husband's Paijiu technology, and I also want to see it.
Yuan Yueze laughed and said: I was on the spot...
Brother, something happened to ‘Lingyan Pavilion’!
An anxious voice came, and it was extremely loud in the lively market.
The three of them turned around and turned out to be Dugu Feng who was running and panting.
Yuan Yueze frowned and pressed her violently undulating shoulders and said: What happened? Tell me slowly!
Yuan Yueze gently comforted Shang Xiuxun who was sobbing in his arms without saying a word, staring at the ruined house in front of him, and his body shot out a cold murderous aura that seemed to be real. Shan Meixian and the girls standing near him, Shuanglong, Li Shimin and their confidants were all chilling, and they didn't even have the courage to speak.
Brother Yuan, what's going on?
Li Yuanji's familiar voice came from behind, and his voice was filled with a hint of pride.
Turning back, Yuan Yueze said coldly: Ask me, who should I ask?
Li Yuanji's face was gloomy. Under the pressure of Yuan Yueze's qi, he still gritted his teeth and said: Brother Yuan brought a firearm to my Tang Dynasty palace with him. What is his intention? Can I say that you have ulterior motives?
Yuan Yueze's big hand pressed against Shang Xiuxun's soft long hair, as if he said to himself: As long as I kill you all, wouldn't I be afraid of anything?
Everyone's face changed drastically. Li Shimin coughed dryly and said to Li Yuanji, who was ashen looking, "How can Brother Yuan be such a villain? Third brother, don't guess randomly, this firearm must be of some origin."
After a pause, he apologized to Yuan Yueze: Brother Yuan has calmed down because you can take things out of thin air. It is not surprising that my third brother has this suspicion. Shimin knows that you are not such a villain, so don’t fight with the snipe and the clam to make the fisherman profit!
When the atmosphere was so awkward, Kou Zhong laughed and said: There are so many firearms, I don’t know who prepared them, and where they were transported in. They can be buried so hidden without anyone noticing them!
He spoke in a weird tone, obviously suspected that Li Tang wanted to harm Yuan Yueze's wife, and was also implicitly mocking Li Yuanji for biting her back
Then he said to Li Shimin: I have to go back and rest first, and I have to drink wine in the evening
After saying that, he nodded and showed his head to Wei Zhenzhen, and walked towards the direction of "Ziyan Pavilion" with Xu Ziling.
Li Shimin smiled and said to Yuan Yueze: This kind of thing actually happens in the palace, which is really angering. How about Brother Yuan and his wife living in Xiyuan? It is elegant and quiet there, and it should be your personality.
Yuan Yueze smiled faintly and said: It’s a blessing for Brother Shimin. If I know who did what I do today, I will definitely add the most miserable punishment in the world to him!
Li Yuanji's face was cold and smiled and said without a smile: The world knows that Brother Yuan's reputation is the most beautiful thing. Tonight, the prince wants to hold a banquet to welcome the young marshal and Brother Xu. Because the father said he wanted to greet Brother Yuan himself, the prince did not invite Brother Yuan. If Brother Yuan is interested, he can also participate.
Yuan Yueze was surprised to be unhappy and said with a smile: Yuan will definitely participate, there is Brother Yuanji.
Seeing that the relationship was finally less tense, Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief and later arranged for Yuan Yueze and a few beautiful wives who were not injured but were frightened by the explosion to live in Xiyuan. Before he could finish his explanation, he saw Eunuch Wei coming and saluted Li Shimin with a numb expression and said: The Emperor, please see the King of Qin immediately.
Looking at Li Shimin's inexplicable expression and the fleeting look in Li Yuanji's eyes, Yuan Yueze vaguely felt that Li Shimin might be in trouble.
Li Yuanji left, and Yuan Yueze's family also walked towards Xiyuan under the leadership of the eunuch
The place where they lived was the VIP courtyard next to the "Yiyuxuan" of Princess Li Xiuning's Mansion
In addition to Zhu Yuyan and Fu Junmao, the whole family was present. In the luxurious hall, Yuan Yueze, Shang Xiuxun and Xiao Heer had been teasing each other for a long time, and they pulled them out of the scared shadow just now.
Then he said to the other women who were not even a little strange: Who do you think this matter will be done?
Shan Meixian replied: It must be done by Li Tang people. As for who it is, it is hard to say, and it must also involve the forces hidden behind them. We have only been there for a day, and they even plotted against us twice, and this time it was even more sinister. They saw that they could not afford to offend their husbands, and they knew that their husbands loved us, so they intended to kill us to attack their husbands' minds. It is indeed not easy for those who can come up with this move.
Yuan Yueze held Xiao He'er who had fallen asleep in his arms and said coldly: That's why I promised to go to Li Jiancheng's banquet tonight. If I find out that they did it, all ten or eight Li Tangs will be destroyed!
Wei Zhenzhen praised: My husband has indeed grown up. If he were to be alone in his words, it would be enough to be killed by his husband.
Yuan Yueze blushed and said: Why is Li Yuanji's left hand still fine? It's really strange!
Bai Qing'er said: In the morning, Master wanted to tell you everything, but later he was interrupted by Sister Zhen. Master said that Master Wei's status with Li Yuan in the past two years has been getting worse and worse. Master Wei wanted to investigate, but the palace forbidden garden is very strict. Therefore, even if he had doubts, he still dared not move randomly. According to Master, Li Yuanji's arm was recovered within half a month after returning to Chang'an. I am afraid that no one knows the details of this matter except for Li Yuan and other few people.
Yuan Yueze nodded and said: Where did Yuyan and Junmao run?
Just as Xiao Feng was about to speak, Jun Ma's clear and pleasant voice came from outside the door: Husband still remembers him!
Before the speech was finished, a graceful figure appeared at the door
Seeing that the sisters were fine, Fu Junmao sat down and said: I went out for a walk in the morning. Sister Yuyan told me to go out to find my second brother, but you guess who did I meet?
Everyone around was confused. Fu Junmao whispered: I met the leader who attacked me on the Yangtze River that day. I followed him for a long time and found that he had finally entered Yin Zuwen's father-in-law's mansion. I took great effort to sneak in. I only heard Yin Zuwen's last words say: Just succeed.
After saying that, Fu Junmao flattened her mouth and leaned on the chair dejectedly
After being silent for a long time in the hall, the shrewd Yun Yuzhen took the lead in speaking: From the person who sneaked into attacking Sister Jun's wife, to Yin Zuwen, to today's incident, will Yin Zuwen also participate in this matter?
Yuan Yueze nodded and said: There is this possibility. I have already remembered from the breath that the person who attacked Junmao that day was the one from the Ming Zun Sect. Hey, this game is getting more and more complicated, and the plot has produced too many branches. It's so interesting.
Xiao Feng reminded: During the banquet, the husband must be the main language, the false and the real. It is best to make them listen to the more they want to listen to, and the more they listen to it, the more confused they become.
Yuan Yueze nodded
ah!
Xiao Heer who fell asleep after being frightened suddenly felt her body hot, an indescribable numbness and itchy feeling ran around her body, and the dry and refreshing private parts became wet. So he opened his big hazy eyes and saw Yuan Yueze talking to the girls around him about what to pay attention to next, while kneading and pressing her well-developed snow rabbits with strange hands. He immediately exclaimed and struggled with red face.
Looking at the angry eyes of the girls around him, Yuan Yueze scratched his head and buried his little head between Linglong Shuangfeng and said: Haha! I'm used to it...
When the lights first came on, Yuan Yueze came to the largest luxury banquet living room in the East Palace ‘Zuochunfang’. This living room was decorated in exquisitely and the spacious hall was brightly lit, just like daytime. The banquet was made of a single seat. The guests seemed to have sat at 90%. Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were also chatting with the high-ranking officials around him.
As soon as Yuan Yueze came in, everyone's eyes gathered
As the organizer, Li Jiancheng looked at him and greeted him, saying: Brother Yuan, I am very honored. Come on, come on, I will punish you for a few drinks!
Yuan Yueze had a strange feeling. Why was Li Jiancheng so happy that he was so close to him like a friend for many years?
Just after walking two steps, a man stood up next to Kou Zhong's seat on the right. He was tall and tall, wearing a dark blue rolling white lace warrior uniform, wearing a white wolf leather cloak, and a long knife on his back.
Only twenty-five or six years old, her face as white as a girl was covered with a healthy blush, and her black and shiny hair was tied with a bun in white cloth. She looked great and extraordinary, and her spirit was intimidating.
His slender eyes had a terrifying and serious light, so sharp that it could penetrate any opponent's reality
Although he dressed as a Han Chinese, Yuan Yueze noticed an aura that was extremely similar to Tuli from him, which was a breath that only people outside the border had.
He just heard him bow and say: It’s better to meet than to be famous. Brother Yuan is really a strange man in the world!
After nodding to Kou Zhong and the others, before he could speak, Li Jiancheng rushed to introduce: This Turkic master Keda Zhike, who is famous for his "crazy sand sword technique" in the desert.
Yuan Yueze looked at him carefully, knew it in his heart, and said with a smile: I've long admired Brother Ke, Brother Ke, you're polite.
Ke Dazhi was stunned, and he didn't expect Yuan Yueze to be so gentle and polite. He then said: "I just had a great time talking with the young marshal and had already agreed to have a competition after the banquet. But I also heard that Ba Fenghan could not take two moves under Brother Yuan that day, so I also wanted to try how many moves I could take under Brother Yuan. I wonder if Brother Yuan would give me advice?"
Yuan Yueze still looked leisurely and said: No problem, but I should know that Yuan doesn't do anything, but if you do something, you will have to kill someone. If you can give up life and death, I have no choice but to welcome you.
The hall is dead silent
Although Dazhi is as famous as a young master outside the domain as Ba Fenghan, his opponent is Yuan Yueze!
Today, the ranking of masters is clear, and the three masters with the highest cultivation level are naturally the three great masters: Taoism represents "San Zhenren" Ning Daoqi; Demon Sect Supreme "Yin Queen" Zhu Yuyan; Desert Canglang "Wu Zun" Bi Xuan
Further down are Song Shidao, Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling, Ba Fenghan, Yang Xuyan, and Hou Xibai
However, Yuan Yueze's position is uncertain. According to his past achievements, some people say that since he was defeated by the "Queen Yin", he can naturally be ranked below the three great masters and above the younger generation.
Some people also said that he lost intentionally just to pursue Zhu Yuyan, otherwise how could he kill all directions in Bashu?
There is no consensus on all kinds of statements, but one thing is certain. Yuan Yueze is at the worst and is more than the younger generation of experts.
Now that Kedazhi dares to challenge, if he refuses, he will never be able to look up as a human being in the face of Yuan Yueze's merciless words.
Ke Dazhi's face darkened, but Li Jiancheng said: Brother Yuan and Brother Ke have extraordinary cultivation, but Brother Yuan seems to be too interested in martial arts, but he only loves beauty, haha! Brother Ke only competes with the young marshal.
His words are tactful and have a unique sense of humor among men, making people unable to get angry
Although it is not for the purpose of satirizing Yuan Yueze, it plays a role in diverting attention. It is important to know that those who pursue martial arts will only be regarded as confidants when they meet people who pursue the same. His statement is to imply that Kedazhi has no need to compete with Yuan Yueze in martial arts, because the pursuit of the two is completely different.
He was even more afraid that once Yuan Yueze, who had a strange temperament, would have suffered a lot if Kedazhi had a few good and two bad things, and he would have suffered a loss in the end. So he used a simple sentence to resolve the awkward atmosphere between the two.
Yuan Yueze smiled calmly and sat down, saying to Li Jiancheng: Why don’t you see Brother Shimin and Brother Yuan Ji?
Li Jiancheng's expression changed slightly, and he sighed and apologized: The father found a batch of firearms from his second brother's palace, exactly the same as the wreckage of the firearms that were blown up by the Lingyan Pavilion today...
Yuan Yueze was shocked and looked at Li Jiancheng with a strange expression.
Only when you sit on the VIP guests with Xu Ziling can you check in. Near Xi Neiyuan, Kou Zhong in the luxurious living room on the top floor of the "Ziyan Pavilion" at the northwest corner of Tai Chi Palace stood up and walked to the large window that opened north to look out.
This "Purple Smoke Pavilion" is exquisite and luxurious in both appearance and internal structure, just like the window decorated with hollow carvings in front of Kou Zhong. The fine wood exuding a slight natural atmosphere, the exquisitely carved beautiful patterns, and the silk satin window screens shining in the sunlight all amaze Kou Zhong and the others.
The eyes were concentrated in a unique garden on the east side of Xi Neiyuan. Kou Zhong sighed a little more in his heart. From such a high place, his vision could just jump over the solid city wall between Xi Neiyuan and Taiji Palace, and he could see the scenery of the garden. The elegant and quiet garden courtyard was unique in shape, which was integrated with the surrounding natural environment, making people feel no trace of artificial transformation after the day of the day. Compared with other palaces and courtyards in the palace, there was a fresh atmosphere.
The main building is located at the southern end, and the north is a stone mountain with a lake with a winding bridge on it. The artificial lake comes to the hall and is transformed into a winding stream, decorated with strange stones.
The water flows around the west side of Xuan and flows into the fan-shaped lake in Xuannan, causing the rippling effect of the lake's shore, which has a wilderness artistic conception. The relationship between water and buildings is handled extremely well, which is obviously due to the conception of experts.
Kou Zhong admired the food and tasted it. After a while, he turned around and asked the pretty maid standing respectfully on one side and said: Sister, where is it?
The maid kept secretly looking at these two good men who were second only to Yuan Yueze, moving and still, and exuding charm all over her body. When she heard this, her face was blushing and said shyly: The young marshal has broken the wicked, and she just called me the name of her. There is the princess's mansion where our Princess Pingyang lives, "Yiyuxuan"
The four words "Princess Pingyang" are heard. Kou Zhong, who was about to tease the shy and pretty maid, immediately stood there as if he was stupid.
Xu Ziling, who had been drinking tea leisurely beside him, frowned and said to the maid: Girl, please go down first. We already know the evening banquet and will definitely attend it on time.
The maid said respectfully: If the young marshal and Mr. Xu have given instructions, please call me as long as you want. I will be at the entrance of the stairs on the next floor.
After the maid stepped down, Xu Ziling sighed and said: Why did you make Li Tang feel uneasy? Before you saw Li Xiuning, you became a fool by just hearing the name. I see you are helpless.
Kou Zhong came back to his senses, sat down with a wry smile, and said to himself: Fortunately, only the three brothers Li Shimin who just greeted us. If Li Xiuning came too, I would probably be ugly.
Xu Ziling said angrily: It is also good to let those people who worship you see the true face of the "Young Marshal" in their hearts.
Kou Zhong came over with a smile and said: I heard that my mother and Brother Yuan live in the "Lingyan Pavilion" not far away. Should we go over and take a look?
Xu Ziling shook his head and said: No, we should try not to meet more often, otherwise we will be passive.
Kou Zhong smiled and said: Anyway, there is still some time before Li Jian becomes the banquet we prepared for at night, so why don’t we dive...
Before he finished speaking, a loud noise suddenly came from the southwest direction
The two of them came to the other window and saw dust flying in the distance, not knowing what big thing happened
Tiance Mansion Study Room
The talented and wise Li Shimin lives in the upper seat, and the people sitting on both sides are all his confidants who are highly valued by him: Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Changsun Wuji, Duan Zhixuan, Pang Yu, Yuchi Jingde, Li Jing

I think they should be gambling.

Pang Yu continued: Among the other wives who came with him, "Empress Yin" and "Rakshasa Girl" were missing; the lady from Dugu then personally visited the emperor and talked about something; Wei Zhenzhen went to the West City Pharmacy Shop to personally take medicine for several concubines; Mrs. Dongming, Qianjin from Pegasus Ranch, Empress Xiao, and the girl named Yin Xiaoji were all stayed in Lingyan Pavilion to play the piano and sing songs
The people in the hall felt powerless: almost all the girls in Yuan Yueze's family had martial arts. Among the girls who came with him, except for Xiao He'er, Song Yuzhi, and Shang Xiuxun, who was not a super expert?
Women like Zhu Yuyan, Shan Meixian, Fu Junmao and others are even more cultivating. No one can detect them when entering and leaving the palace.
When I thought of Bai Qing'er again, Li Shimin, who was originally indifferent, suddenly frowned and said: I heard Yuan Yueze's introduction that day and only said that Bai Qing'er was a friend who wanted to come to Chang'an to see him. How true do you think this statement is?

Hua Cong Lao Shi Duan Zhixuan agreed: Based on Zhixuan's experience, Bai Qing'er is clearly... Hey! It is clearly the eldest daughter of Huanghua. The scheming Qian Duguan and Bai Qing'er's husband and wife may be just a cover, but in fact they were taken out to save their lives when necessary. With her appearance of inverting all living beings, she can indeed fascinate anyone. The selfish Qian Duguan pretended to surrender to Yuan Yueze, but in fact she was planning a conspiracy behind her back.
Pang Yu also nodded and said: However, Yuan Yueze is not an ordinary person. The latest news from Luoyang said that Chen Luoyan had personally led 30,000 elite troops to the south. I am afraid that he would only give money to a severe blow, so that he would never dare to have a bad idea again.
Li Shimin's brows became tighter and tighter
Xiangyang is the most important military center south of Luoyang, and it is a treasure land coveted by every force.
Half a year ago, in order to defeat Wang Shichong, Li Mi personally went to Xiangyang to lobby Qian Duguan, which shows the importance of Xiangyang.
If it falls into Li Shimin's hands, he can not only restrain Xiao Xian and Zhu Can, but also suppress Yuan Yueze in front and Du Fuwei in the back, and even use it as capital to persuade surrender.
But once it falls into Yuan Yueze's hands, it will be a bad idea. Luoyang and Xiangyang are connected together. Even if there is no threat from the Great Xia army on the flanks in the future, it will be even more difficult for Li Tang to capture Luoyang.
But now it's too late to reach, but I can only sigh at what I can do
Li Shimin sighed in his heart that Shen Luoyan had a good grasp of the opportunity to send troops. Taking advantage of Yuan Yueze's entry into the pass, she attracted all Li Tang's attention. She could finally start to implement the expansion plan without being threatened.
Changsun Wuji wanted to speak with a puzzled look on his face, but was taken into consideration by Li Shimin and said in his eyes: If Wuji has something to say, please say it directly.
Changsun Wuji hesitated: Mr. Chai Shao has just come here in person and told Wuji that he would attend the banquet held in Tai Chi Palace the next day. Wuji asked the King of Qin to agree.
Li Shimin calmly said: Since that's the case, please tell him that Shimin decided to win a seat for him.
Just as Changsun Wuji was about to touch, a sudden sound of rapid footsteps came from outside. A soldier ran and shouted: Report to King Qin, something happened to the 'Lingyan Pavilion'!
The faces of the people in the hall changed drastically
Yuan Yueze, Yun Yuzhen, Bai Qing'er and three others walked out of the East City, crossed Xinghua, Chongde and the two yards, and began to wander around.
The most powerful and wealthy people around the palace are, and the purpose is to be easy to cling to the royal family, so they compete to build houses and have the benefits of shopping. Therefore, several lifangs north of Dongsiliang City are known as Jinfang.
The carriages on the spacious streets were decorated with gorgeous clothes, and the pedestrians were dressed in bright clothes.
The surrounding houses are filled with courtyards, lush forests and towering pavilions, and a magnificent corruption atmosphere.
Yun Yuzhen and Bai Qing'er whispered with arms around. Yuan Yueze looked around with interest at the dazzling array of goods in front of various shops, and the vendors and buyers who were bargaining in a hurry. Then he turned his head to the two who were laughing for some reason: What are you laughing at?
Yun Yuzhen hurriedly threw her eyes to Yuan Yueze and said softly: I'm telling Qing'er's sister that his husband fell from the sky and killed the master of the Ming Zun Sect with one sword.
Yuan Yueze said nostalgically: That was something that happened several years ago
Bai Qing'er interrupted: Qing'er seems to be unlucky to enjoy the feeling of flying into the air with his sword.
Yun Yuzhen gently pinched her cute Yao nose with her bare hands: Fortunately, it was too late for you to meet your husband, otherwise you would have fallen in love with him as desperately as Wanjing that day, but I was caught by that sword!
Bai Qing'er's jade face was slightly red, and she pinched Yun Yuzhen with her backhand, and she giggled and dodged her.
Yuan Yueze shook his head and laughed. With Shan Wanjing's independent and strong personality, of course, it is impossible to be easily attracted to him. At that time, he was carrying a misty aura that did not belong to the world. Even Shan Meixian could not resist it, let alone Shan Wanjing
But now those auras have almost disappeared, so Bai Qing'er won't be so easily lost when facing Yuan Yueze.
After passing Yankangfang, they turned to Yong'an Street. The Yong'an Canal, which is more than ten meters wide, crossed north and south, flowing through the front.
A magnificent stone bridge over the canal
Yong'an Canal connects to the Wei River in the north of the city, and supplying half of Chang'an's water use is an important water transportation route. This "Yuema Bridge" is the most spectacular stone bridge in Chang'an.
The straight Yong'an Canal runs through the north and south city gates parallel to Yong'an Street. Boats and oars are coming and going, and cars and horses are running up the bridge. There are huge houses and rich houses around.
Bai Qing'er was interested and whispered: I heard that the 'Yang Gong Treasure House' is here. If the master didn't tell him, he would think that the treasure had not been moved.
Yun Yuzhen frowned slightly when she heard this. Before she could speak, Yuan Yueze turned his head and smiled at Bai Qing'er: Then I will take you to the empty treasure house another day...
Before he finished speaking, he saw Yun Yuzhen constantly shining his eyes.
Yuan Yueze laughed and put it on her arm. He smelled her tender and fragrant face with a big mouth, and praised: It smells so good!
The pedestrians on the way looked at the three of them and talked a lot.
Confucian scholars' contemptuous eyes, men's surprised eyes, women's envious eyes, and children's puzzled eyes, almost all of them can burn the three of them.
Yuan Yueze posted to Yun Yuzhen's ear and sent a message to her: I noticed the person who was following us. This is called a trick to confuse the enemy. Yuzhen cooperates with her.
Bai Qing'er saw that Yun Yuzhen was erecting her tall breasts, looking very enjoyable, and couldn't help but twist her pretty face to the side with a slightly red look and spat in a low voice.
Yuan Yueze Se-mi-mi said: Does Qing'er want to come here too?
Bai Qing'er was shocked and flashed to the side, but saw that Yuan Yueze and Yun Yuzhen had already walked forward, so she could only stomp the lotus feet hatefully and follow them.
In a moment, the three of them entered the prosperous 'Beili'
I was just shopping aimlessly, but I actually walked to such a place in a daze
Yun Yuzhen pressed Yuan Yueze's arm and rubbed the pair of soft jade-feng on Yuan Yueze's arm. Mèi smiled and said: Do we want to find a gambling shop to play a few times? I heard my sister-in-law talk about my husband's Paijiu technology, and I also want to see it.
Yuan Yueze laughed and said: I was on the spot...
Brother, something happened to ‘Lingyan Pavilion’!
An anxious voice came, and it was extremely loud in the lively market.
The three of them turned around and turned out to be Dugu Feng who was running and panting.
Yuan Yueze frowned and pressed her violently undulating shoulders and said: What happened? Tell me slowly!
Yuan Yueze gently comforted Shang Xiuxun who was sobbing in his arms without saying a word, staring at the ruined house in front of him, and his body shot out a cold murderous aura that seemed to be real. Shan Meixian and the girls standing near him, Shuanglong, Li Shimin and their confidants were all chilling, and they didn't even have the courage to speak.
Brother Yuan, what's going on?
Li Yuanji's familiar voice came from behind, and his voice was filled with a hint of pride.
Turning back, Yuan Yueze said coldly: Ask me, who should I ask?
Li Yuanji's face was gloomy. Under the pressure of Yuan Yueze's qi, he still gritted his teeth and said: Brother Yuan brought a firearm to my Tang Dynasty palace with him. What is his intention? Can I say that you have ulterior motives?
Yuan Yueze's big hand pressed against Shang Xiuxun's soft long hair, as if he said to himself: As long as I kill you all, wouldn't I be afraid of anything?
Everyone's face changed drastically. Li Shimin coughed dryly and said to Li Yuanji, who was ashen looking, "How can Brother Yuan be such a villain? Third brother, don't guess randomly, this firearm must be of some origin."
After a pause, he apologized to Yuan Yueze: Brother Yuan has calmed down because you can take things out of thin air. It is not surprising that my third brother has this suspicion. Shimin knows that you are not such a villain, so don’t fight with the snipe and the clam to make the fisherman profit!
When the atmosphere was so awkward, Kou Zhong laughed and said: There are so many firearms, I don’t know who prepared them, and where they were transported in. They can be buried so hidden without anyone noticing them!
He spoke in a weird tone, obviously suspected that Li Tang wanted to harm Yuan Yueze's wife, and was also implicitly mocking Li Yuanji for biting her back
Then he said to Li Shimin: I have to go back and rest first, and I have to drink wine in the evening
After saying that, he nodded and showed his head to Wei Zhenzhen, and walked towards the direction of "Ziyan Pavilion" with Xu Ziling.
Li Shimin smiled and said to Yuan Yueze: This kind of thing actually happens in the palace, which is really angering. How about Brother Yuan and his wife living in Xiyuan? It is elegant and quiet there, and it should be your personality.
Yuan Yueze smiled faintly and said: It’s a blessing for Brother Shimin. If I know who did what I do today, I will definitely add the most miserable punishment in the world to him!
Li Yuanji's face was cold and smiled and said without a smile: The world knows that Brother Yuan's reputation is the most beautiful thing. Tonight, the prince wants to hold a banquet to welcome the young marshal and Brother Xu. Because the father said he wanted to greet Brother Yuan himself, the prince did not invite Brother Yuan. If Brother Yuan is interested, he can also participate.
Yuan Yueze was surprised to be unhappy and said with a smile: Yuan will definitely participate, there is Brother Yuanji.
Seeing that the relationship was finally less tense, Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief and later arranged for Yuan Yueze and a few beautiful wives who were not injured but were frightened by the explosion to live in Xiyuan. Before he could finish his explanation, he saw Eunuch Wei coming and saluted Li Shimin with a numb expression and said: The Emperor, please see the King of Qin immediately.
Looking at Li Shimin's inexplicable expression and the fleeting look in Li Yuanji's eyes, Yuan Yueze vaguely felt that Li Shimin might be in trouble.
Li Yuanji left, and Yuan Yueze's family also walked towards Xiyuan under the leadership of the eunuch
The place where they lived was the VIP courtyard next to the "Yiyuxuan" of Princess Li Xiuning's Mansion
In addition to Zhu Yuyan and Fu Junmao, the whole family was present. In the luxurious hall, Yuan Yueze, Shang Xiuxun and Xiao Heer had been teasing each other for a long time, and they pulled them out of the scared shadow just now.
Then he said to the other women who were not even a little strange: Who do you think this matter will be done?
Shan Meixian replied: It must be done by Li Tang people. As for who it is, it is hard to say, and it must also involve the forces hidden behind them. We have only been there for a day, and they even plotted against us twice, and this time it was even more sinister. They saw that they could not afford to offend their husbands, and they knew that their husbands loved us, so they intended to kill us to attack their husbands' minds. It is indeed not easy for those who can come up with this move.
Yuan Yueze held Xiao He'er who had fallen asleep in his arms and said coldly: That's why I promised to go to Li Jiancheng's banquet tonight. If I find out that they did it, all ten or eight Li Tangs will be destroyed!
Wei Zhenzhen praised: My husband has indeed grown up. If he were to be alone in his words, it would be enough to be killed by his husband.
Yuan Yueze blushed and said: Why is Li Yuanji's left hand still fine? It's really strange!
Bai Qing'er said: In the morning, Master wanted to tell you everything, but later he was interrupted by Sister Zhen. Master said that Master Wei's status with Li Yuan in the past two years has been getting worse and worse. Master Wei wanted to investigate, but the palace forbidden garden is very strict. Therefore, even if he had doubts, he still dared not move randomly. According to Master, Li Yuanji's arm was recovered within half a month after returning to Chang'an. I am afraid that no one knows the details of this matter except for Li Yuan and other few people.
Yuan Yueze nodded and said: Where did Yuyan and Junmao run?
Just as Xiao Feng was about to speak, Jun Ma's clear and pleasant voice came from outside the door: Husband still remembers him!
Before the speech was finished, a graceful figure appeared at the door
Seeing that the sisters were fine, Fu Junmao sat down and said: I went out for a walk in the morning. Sister Yuyan told me to go out to find my second brother, but you guess who did I meet?
Everyone around was confused. Fu Junmao whispered: I met the leader who attacked me on the Yangtze River that day. I followed him for a long time and found that he had finally entered Yin Zuwen's father-in-law's mansion. I took great effort to sneak in. I only heard Yin Zuwen's last words say: Just succeed.
After saying that, Fu Junmao flattened her mouth and leaned on the chair dejectedly
After being silent for a long time in the hall, the shrewd Yun Yuzhen took the lead in speaking: From the person who sneaked into attacking Sister Jun's wife, to Yin Zuwen, to today's incident, will Yin Zuwen also participate in this matter?
Yuan Yueze nodded and said: There is this possibility. I have already remembered from the breath that the person who attacked Junmao that day was the one from the Ming Zun Sect. Hey, this game is getting more and more complicated, and the plot has produced too many branches. It's so interesting.
Xiao Feng reminded: During the banquet, the husband must be the main language, the false and the real. It is best to make them listen to the more they want to listen to, and the more they listen to it, the more confused they become.
Yuan Yueze nodded
ah!
Xiao Heer who fell asleep after being frightened suddenly felt her body hot, an indescribable numbness and itchy feeling ran around her body, and the dry and refreshing private parts became wet. So he opened his big hazy eyes and saw Yuan Yueze talking to the girls around him about what to pay attention to next, while kneading and pressing her well-developed snow rabbits with strange hands. He immediately exclaimed and struggled with red face.
Looking at the angry eyes of the girls around him, Yuan Yueze scratched his head and buried his little head between Linglong Shuangfeng and said: Haha! I'm used to it...
When the lights first came on, Yuan Yueze came to the largest luxury banquet living room in the East Palace ‘Zuochunfang’. This living room was decorated in exquisitely and the spacious hall was brightly lit, just like daytime. The banquet was made of a single seat. The guests seemed to have sat at 90%. Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were also chatting with the high-ranking officials around him.
As soon as Yuan Yueze came in, everyone's eyes gathered
As the organizer, Li Jiancheng looked at him and greeted him, saying: Brother Yuan, I am very honored. Come on, come on, I will punish you for a few drinks!
Yuan Yueze had a strange feeling. Why was Li Jiancheng so happy that he was so close to him like a friend for many years?
Just after walking two steps, a man stood up next to Kou Zhong's seat on the right. He was tall and tall, wearing a dark blue rolling white lace warrior uniform, wearing a white wolf leather cloak, and a long knife on his back.
Only twenty-five or six years old, her face as white as a girl was covered with a healthy blush, and her black and shiny hair was tied with a bun in white cloth. She looked great and extraordinary, and her spirit was intimidating.
His slender eyes had a terrifying and serious light, so sharp that it could penetrate any opponent's reality
Although he dressed as a Han Chinese, Yuan Yueze noticed an aura that was extremely similar to Tuli from him, which was a breath that only people outside the border had.
He just heard him bow and say: It’s better to meet than to be famous. Brother Yuan is really a strange man in the world!
After nodding to Kou Zhong and the others, before he could speak, Li Jiancheng rushed to introduce: This Turkic master Keda Zhike, who is famous for his "crazy sand sword technique" in the desert.
Yuan Yueze looked at him carefully, knew it in his heart, and said with a smile: I've long admired Brother Ke, Brother Ke, you're polite.
Ke Dazhi was stunned, and he didn't expect Yuan Yueze to be so gentle and polite. He then said: "I just had a great time talking with the young marshal and had already agreed to have a competition after the banquet. But I also heard that Ba Fenghan could not take two moves under Brother Yuan that day, so I also wanted to try how many moves I could take under Brother Yuan. I wonder if Brother Yuan would give me advice?"
Yuan Yueze still looked leisurely and said: No problem, but I should know that Yuan doesn't do anything, but if you do something, you will have to kill someone. If you can give up life and death, I have no choice but to welcome you.
The hall is dead silent
Although Dazhi is as famous as a young master outside the domain as Ba Fenghan, his opponent is Yuan Yueze!
Today, the ranking of masters is clear, and the three masters with the highest cultivation level are naturally the three great masters: Taoism represents "San Zhenren" Ning Daoqi; Demon Sect Supreme "Yin Queen" Zhu Yuyan; Desert Canglang "Wu Zun" Bi Xuan
Further down are Song Shidao, Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling, Ba Fenghan, Yang Xuyan, and Hou Xibai
However, Yuan Yueze's position is uncertain. According to his past achievements, some people say that since he was defeated by the "Queen Yin", he can naturally be ranked below the three great masters and above the younger generation.
Some people also said that he lost intentionally just to pursue Zhu Yuyan, otherwise how could he kill all directions in Bashu?
There is no consensus on all kinds of statements, but one thing is certain. Yuan Yueze is at the worst and is more than the younger generation of experts.
Now that Kedazhi dares to challenge, if he refuses, he will never be able to look up as a human being in the face of Yuan Yueze's merciless words.
Ke Dazhi's face darkened, but Li Jiancheng said: Brother Yuan and Brother Ke have extraordinary cultivation, but Brother Yuan seems to be too interested in martial arts, but he only loves beauty, haha! Brother Ke only competes with the young marshal.
His words are tactful and have a unique sense of humor among men, making people unable to get angry
Although it is not for the purpose of satirizing Yuan Yueze, it plays a role in diverting attention. It is important to know that those who pursue martial arts will only be regarded as confidants when they meet people who pursue the same. His statement is to imply that Kedazhi has no need to compete with Yuan Yueze in martial arts, because the pursuit of the two is completely different.
He was even more afraid that once Yuan Yueze, who had a strange temperament, would have suffered a lot if Kedazhi had a few good and two bad things, and he would have suffered a loss in the end. So he used a simple sentence to resolve the awkward atmosphere between the two.
Yuan Yueze smiled calmly and sat down, saying to Li Jiancheng: Why don’t you see Brother Shimin and Brother Yuan Ji?
Li Jiancheng's expression changed slightly, and he sighed and apologized: The father found a batch of firearms from his second brother's palace, exactly the same as the wreckage of the firearms that were blown up by the Lingyan Pavilion today...
Yuan Yueze was shocked and looked at Li Jiancheng with a strange expression.
