The north of the city of Pu, 25 gardens.
The towering black tiles and white walls reflect the bright sky light, as if they are endless toward both ends of the horizon.In the wall, there are deep and thick canopy stacks, but the five most famous pavilions are still covered by the last night, and even the hazy outline is hard to see.
Yokoura has always been a city that never sleeps.
Before the general of Zhendong entered, the night markets, restaurants, etc. were all night long, and it was often only after the third update that the genius was willing to stop. Most of the residents in the city rose in a quiet place. The area north of Fengqiu Gate where the twenty-five gardens were located was mostly garden villas for the rich, and their daily routines were more late than ordinary people.
Today is a rare exception.Before the fifth day, the 25th garden was already brightly lit and all the servants were busy. Soon, Liang Zitong, the Lord of the Yin of the City, and Dugu Tianwei, the lord of Liuying City, drove towards the north gate surrounded by a large number of followers, and went straight to the Lianjue Temple in Alan Mountain.
The Three Vehicles Conference on the Treatise on the Law is not for the common people. Only invited princes, nobles, and wealthy gentry can attend the meeting. The etiquette of going up the mountain to pay homage is no different from the saints entering the palace. It is also that before dawn, I rushed to the foot of Alan Mountain to submit famous letters, and waited for the people from the Taiwan Department of the Donghai Road to the Taiwan Department to release the titles one by one, and then the Jinwu guards of the guards of the guards of the guards were guided into the venue.It's not yet my turn. All high-ranking officials, nobles, generals and ministers have to stay in the wild shed at the foot of the mountain, no one can beat the queen.
This is not a good thing for ordinary people who are not qualified to approach Alan Mountain.The brigade of men left the city gate in a hurry, and the surroundings of the huge twenty-five gardens returned to peace. Even the four city officials with feathers in front of the gate and holding water and fire sticks were restored to their usual laziness, sitting or leaning on them, dozing off with the painted red and dark water and fire sticks.
One of them was not sleepy and was bored. When he saw a small stall under the tree opposite, a dark and thick boy was carrying a bamboo basket load, and he didn't know how to shout and shout. He sat blankly under the shade of the tree wearing a hat, but he didn't know what was stored in the bamboo basket. The smell of hot charcoal frequently drifted, making people hungry and pounding drums all over his stomach.
The man waved to him, hey, you!come over!
The boy was stunned and looked around. After hearing the man shouting a few more times, he realized that he was calling him, so he quickly took on the load and stepped forward.There was a large jar in each of the bamboo baskets in front and behind him. One of them was filled with red charcoal. As soon as the thick charcoal fragrance approached, the other three men woke up one after another.
I ask you, what is simmering in your charcoal stove?I'll tell you honestly, the master will beat you up!The official who called the person deliberately raised his face and asked ruthlessly.The boy was shocked and hesitated and couldn't speak. Another yamen officer couldn't see it. He pushed his colleague with his elbow and said in a low voice: Don't you recognize it?This stall belongs to Old Man Xu.
After he said this, the man suddenly realized it.Old man Xu?You mean that Xu... his daughter is not... Seeing his companion's face slightly changed, I remembered that incident. I had issued a ban on my head, and I was afraid that I had accidentally caused trouble. However, after all, I couldn't let go of my face, so I still took the airs of the public and looked at the boy:
Who are you Old Man Xu?
Another official who responded just now showed resentment and muttered: Who do you care about him?Just hurry up and don’t make trouble for everyone!The man couldn't bear to hear his colleague's remarks, so he reached out and stopped him, and said coldly: Don't.Grandpa, just figure out what he is from!I have been sneaking here for several days, maybe I am a thief.
The boy was frightened and trembled: Official... Master!I...I'm not a thief!Then Xu... Old Man Xu fell ill, and said, "I asked for money to treat the disease, and I gave it to me...Others...I don't know anything else!Master, Master, Master, understand!The man was relieved when he heard this, and was proud and turned around and smiled at his colleagues:
Yes or no?I said, Old Man Xu is just a tender daughter, where does the black boy come from?Ha ha ha ha.Seeing that his colleague turned his head speechlessly, the boss was bored and asked the young man again: Hey, are you still selling tofu brains after you have been blocked by someone else’s stall?Make a few bowls for the men to taste. If the taste is good, you will be able to set up a stall opposite you to make a living; it will ruin grandpa's appetite and break your legs!
The boy's face turned pale. He took out the cup and a thin piece of iron from the back basket, uncovered the lid of the jar, and a warm and full bean fragrance came to his nose.He scraped the urn with thin iron slices, picked up a few smears of snow-white tofu brains like cloud strips, and put them into the cup; the charcoal jar in the front basket was a ready-made stove, put a shallow-bottomed iron wok on it, scoop a spoonful of soup made of mushrooms and beef bones, add fine black fungus, pickled vegetables, and parsley powder, mix them with cold water and make a braised mung bean powder, pour it into the cup, then put some garlic juice and red oil and green beans, and a bowl of fresh and fragrant beef tofu brain was finished.
The official sent a cup of rice. The braised ginger made of mung bean powder, broth and soy sauce made of mung bean powder, broth and soy sauce were orange-red and transparent, and the sauce was as crisp as amber. The spoon was scooped off, but the braised ginger was not leaking at all, but it was still covered with the tofu brain. The scent of onions and garlic was steamed by the boiling braised ginger, which was layered with the aroma of tofu brain and the fresh sweetness of beef mushrooms in the broth, which was extremely layered.
The head of the prince tasted it, his eyes lit up slightly, and he wanted to praise it. He felt that he had just taken a bite and softened his mouth. It was inevitable that Wu Laoqi would look down on him. He told him that he would be a human being in the future?He coughed twice and hummed:
The braised braised well, but it is the time to use a spatula and learn quickly.Compared with the original owner of the stall, your tofu brain is too brine, which is not as soft, smooth and tender as before, and has a bitter taste.Old Man Xu's tofu brain is unique, fragrant, smooth, white and tender, just like his watery daughter.The other two laughed when they were indescribable.
Wu Laoqi tasted a spoonful of the mouth with him before, frowned and said: Is that right?I think it's pretty good.A harder mouth is elastic, and it tastes very good with braised scallion beads, so it may not lose.He was taking out copper coins into his clothes, but was stopped by the head official: Wu Laoqi, I have worked together with you and me to work hard, right?What are you doing? Accumulating good deeds for your two kids?The other two also looked at questioning.Wu Laoqi smacked his lips and ate the tofu brain clean.
The official Lao Youde suppressed him, and became more arrogant and stacked the remaining cups into a pile. Seeing the boy reaching out to pick him up, he suddenly let go of his hand. With a loud bang, the four cups fell to pieces at the boy's feet.
Your tofu brain is not bad, so your legs will not be hit. I will send it to you first.When I see the man taking office, I will first cook a few bowls of filial piety. Next time, I will ask you to ask me and I will smash your stall!Ming spoke to the boy, but he glanced at Wu Laoqi intentionally or unintentionally, and his smile was cold.Wu Laoqi knew that he was annoyed that he was too angry, and no matter how entangled he was, it would just drag the young man to get angry, so he turned a blind eye and leaned on a water and fire stick.
Many... Thank you, Master.
Lao Youde hummed and laughed.This kid is not bad, he is much more aware of his appearance than Old Man Xu.
If he obediently sent his daughter to the mansion, would it cause death?What kind of parents raise and what kind of cubs are, the old and the young are generally unaware of each other.The young master Yin is not unfair to be fond of beauty. The young nuns in the twenty-five gardens are so charming that they are not as beautiful as the family, at least they can eat and dress well, and they can also bring money to their families. Many families are rushing to send their daughters, but they are afraid that the young master will not look down on them.What are you, Old Man Xu, pretending to be too noble!
Look at you are not old, he scratched his chin and looked at the boy with a strange and interesting look.What was it for?
The boy dared not refuse to answer, so he stood up and wiped his hands on his short shirt, and said in a low voice: Go back to the master, do odd jobs in the butcher shop.
Lao Youde was a little surprised.
The butcher's life is easy to make money, why don't you continue to do it?
Back... Go back... Go back, the villain is afraid of... afraid of killing. After listening to other people's advice, he changed to a life without blood.
The officials looked at each other, and after a while, laughter suddenly broke out, holding their stomachs and leaning back and forth. Even Wu Laoqi couldn't help but shake his head when he heard this, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.Lao Youde laughed and said: With your promising prospects, it is appropriate to sell tofu brains.Don't get out of here?
The boy hurriedly packed up the broken tiles and carried the load back to the tree. He was disturbed by the officials from the twenty-five gardens, and no one dared to visit him for the time being.The boy took a worn cotton towel and wiped the sweat all over her head and face. It seemed that he could smell a faint fragrance of powder on the towel, but he knew that the owner of the towel did not use rouge and water powder, which was the fragrance on her body, and she was born to smell so good.
He stopped his movements without realizing it, sat in a daze under the tree. When he came to his senses, he had reached his left hand into the bottom of the basket and held the pre-hidden wrist-removing knife.It's today, the boy thought.Miss Shuangshuang, you have a spirit in heaven. Bless me, I will definitely succeed. I will let the beast's internal organs be cut off and spread them like a pig's chamber to comfort you father and daughter.
In addition to the sharp knife that is sharply ground and wrapped in layers of cloth, there is also a small bottle of coarse earthy wine.He lied to Lao Youde. In the butcher shop in Jinqiao, Jinqiao, he has always been the most respected apprentice. He can kill pigs and relieve cattle with a sharp knife.It’s the girl Shuangshuang who doesn’t like to see blood. Every time she visits the tofu brain stall, she can always smell a faint smell of blood.
Why not stop killing pigs and learn...to make tofu brains?Once, he finally plucked up the courage to ask, and immediately lowered his head, not daring to look at her pretty face.But Miss Shuangshuang just put his tofu brain beside her and said with a smile: Making tofu brain is very hard and can't make much money.You are young and have a great future, and you do anything better than this.
He felt extremely regretful of his hesitation at that time.
If I were there that day--he thought so more than once, and then woke up from the terrifying nightmare of her humiliation and biting her tongue and splashing blood in the room, with tears on her face covered with sweat.
Unfortunately, life cannot be repeated.If he had a chance to do it again, he would not care about his appearance. No matter how Shuangshuang, he would just think that he was a guest who came to eat tofu and chat every day. He would show his feelings to her even if he died, even if he couldn't get anything...
After all, killing a person is different from killing a pig. He thought he needed to drink and calm down, but when things came to an end, his heart was silent, and he even looked forward to death and liberation after success.
The boy didn't even touch the wine. He was about to take out the cloth bag wrapped in a knife and saw a man wrapped in a shabby cloak with a bed or a bench behind him. He squatted by the wall with his hands in his chest, his bright eyes staring at himself - or the tofu brain urn with charcoal fragrance.
The man had been squatting there for three days... No, maybe it was longer, but he only noticed this guy three days ago.The boy had never read a book and could not say the word "dust" was a word, but the man seemed to have walked through thousands of miles of wilderness. He was not as lush as a beggar, but was covered in wind and frost, with an indescribable feeling of fatigue. After a glance, he could not help but think of home.
In a wealthy city like Yuepu, there are more beggars than in remote areas.The boy had seen straw mats, bedding, and even a few stools in his family. However, the things that the man carries were very strange, more than half a person tall, with a contour of a large surface and a giant anchor used by a large ship in the port. In short, it was very thick and wrapped in layers of coarse cloth on the outside, so I really couldn't tell what it was.
Should he be hungry?The boy thought.
After Miss Shuangshuang left, he quit his job at the butcher shop, carried the five taels of silver given to him by the boss, and studied with Old Man Xu for more than half a year. Until Old Man Xu took his last breath, it was still the pit he dug for the straw mat he wrapped in for the old man, covering the soil one by one.The old man came to ask for his daughter, but was beaten by the official and was covered in bruises. He could last for half a year, but it was probably because of the injustice in his heart.
They rarely talked during the past six months, and maybe they didn't know what to say. They were originally just two people who sold tofu brain and bought tofu brain, and they were not familiar with each other.
Old Man Xu's work is not simple. He became an apprentice and learned it for three years just by soaking soybeans and grinding soy milk, not to mention making salt. Every step was hard work and effort. However, for some reason, the young man learned it in half a year and did it well.It's really strange. The old man thought, he was obviously a careless person and could not say he had any talent.
Old Man Xu never said thank you.
Old Man Xu has seen many young men like this.Everyone came for his beautiful daughter. Even if the bowl was filled with rotten water pig food, it still ate delicious food, which really ruined his good skills... Only he, after Shuangshuang died, gave up the butcher shop who could make money, came to him, the dying man who was breathing, and picked up the pot and cauldron soaked soybeans again, grind the beans and boiled milk.
They were thinking about one thing, but they didn't say it.
Liang Chengwu, the son of Liang Zitong, the son of Lord Yin of Chengyin, likes to eat salty tofu brain, which is well known. When Mr. Liang was shocked to realize that Old Man Xu actually had a beautiful daughter, he had eaten his beef tofu brain for several years.After Shuangshuang's accident, Old Man Xu was beaten to a half-dead, and no one sold these soft, smooth and delicious snacks outside the twenty-five gardens.But people are addicted, just like Mr. Liang did not kill a vendor's daughter, and since then he ate vegetarian food and worshiped Buddha, and no longer attacked the beautiful girls.
The boy calmed down and prepared a cup of hot beef tofu brain, which was brought to the man opposite the street.
Are you hungry?The boy did not show his arrogant and superior attitude because of his sacrificing person, but instead he was like explaining his funeral, with a kind of quiet awareness and understanding.Eat slowly and won’t charge you.Be careful to burn your mouth.
The man took it with both hands, raised the cup and gave it a slight tribute to him, and put it into his mouth with spoonfuls of spoonfuls, closing his eyes to tell the taste.The boy suddenly found it interesting: this man looked like a beggar and ronin from a distance, but when he looked close, he realized that he was not dirty at all. He behaved gently and had an indescribable nobleness. His eyes were so stunning that he could make people feel awe without opening his mouth, but he looked like a big man on a tour in a very small way.
What's strange is that such an outstanding temperament is not as good as the travel suit that is covered with dust and fresh and frost, as if it should be like this, without any abruptness.The man was about forty or fifty years old - perhaps actually older - with a beard full of beards, but not a stern protruding like a hard halberd. The beard roots are soft and thick, with a moisturized silk-like silk.
Looking up close, the man actually had a straight nose and a square chin, and a dense beard in his travels, adding a little bit of a world of martial arts. He shaved off most of his savage beards and put on an embroidered golden robe and jade ring. Some people believed it to be a prince and a marquis.
He finished eating slowly one bite by one, returned the cup with both hands, took out the handkerchief and gently pressed the corner of his mouth, and patted the little leftovers stained with his beard.The boy felt that this was right: at the end of his life, he was very happy that the last bowl of tofu brain he cooked himself gave to a person who knew the taste, rather than the fierce official servants outside the garden.
Well-beated.After a while, the ronin opened his eyes, and there seemed to be a smile in his eyes, but his tone was serious and serious, without any frivolity.But the salt of tofu brain is too buckled, the texture is slightly hard, and it also has a hint of bitter taste of brine, which is a pity.
The boy smiled bitterly.
If it weren't for the fact that this place was far away from the gate and the voice was hard to reach, he almost thought that the great man said so after hearing what the official said.Tomorrow you try to hook it thinner.It is said: Fresh marinade of tofu, a cup of delicious flavor is used to make the morning sun.The taste is so strong, it’s a pity that you don’t easily lose your grease.The big man suddenly remembered something, took out a hanging of new money from his arms and handed it over, and said with a smile:
I forgot to give the money.Where I come, people like us don't make money.
It seems... it's really a beggar.The boy shook his head.Everyone said that I won’t charge you money.
Accept it.The man smiled and said: I'm here to eat tomorrow, so I can't give it to you.
...It won't open tomorrow.Don't wait.
That day after tomorrow?
The boy suddenly became irritable, took the empty bowl and turned around and left.
The smell of blood in killing people is different from killing animals.
The boy stopped in shock and saw that the man was still standing on the corner of the wall with his hands crossed his knees, and a smile pursed at the corner of his mouth.
He had to walk back, quietly stretched his hand to his waist, and held the wrist-removing knife hidden under his clothes - Ruolangren shouted loudly, and he had no chance to break into the garden.For the sake of the Law-Control Conference, thousands of officials from Yuepu were all out of the city, and only the Liang family's guards were left in the twenty-five gardens, and most of them followed Lord Cheng Yin to Alan Mountain.
The people around Liang Chengwu can no longer be as young as they are today.This is the only opportunity.
(Please show the sharp knife, maybe you can teach him not to speak?)
Ronin seemed to read his thoughts, looked up earlier, and smiled: How long have you known Old Man Xu?Three years, or five years?
The boy was stunned and said: Two...two years.Actually, it's far from it.Including the past six months since the two really got along, he knew that there was Old Man Xu, this tofu brain stall, and the beautiful and fairy-like girl, at most, a little more a year.Just admitting that he was not familiar with the Xu family’s father and daughter, unexpectedly frustrated the boy.
Ronin nodded with a smile. When I came to Yuepu in the past, I would always visit Old Man Xu's beef soup tofu brain. When his daughter was so young... he squatted and compared it to his eyebrows. I've also hugged her. In recent years, I have rarely walked in the East China Sea. I don’t expect that the little girls of that year have become big girls. You buried them? Can you take me to pick up an incense stick?
The boy took a deep breath, and then he felt a stinging pain in his heart.The Xu Family Ancestral Hall in the south of the city.Please ask Mr. Xu, who is in charge of the business, and he will take you there.I...I have something to do today.Turn around and leave.
Is it worth doing this for a woman who has never lived before and has died?The ronin stopped him, and his eyes burst into light, as if the tiger and eagle sleeping in the deep forest suddenly woke up. Every word was like a copper melon and iron hammer, hitting the boy's heart hard, with the intimidating majesty like a king, forcing the boy to breathe:
Who are you from her?Is it a brother or a lover, or a husband who has not yet been married?What is your relationship with Old Man Xu? I want to take revenge. Is it your turn?Do you want to be a hero if you force yourself?If Old Man Xu's daughter is still alive, will she hope that you will sacrifice your precious life to avenge her?
The boy was asked urgently like a string of cannons, and couldn't help but be stunned. After a moment, he shook his head and said: I have never read a book, I can only kill pigs and cows. I can't answer any of the questions you asked.But no matter who asks me about this, or asks me hundreds or thousands of times, the result will be the same.I want to do this for Miss Shuangshuang.I can only do this for Miss Shuangshuang.I just want to... just seek justice.If I can't do this, I will not be able to sleep well in my life.
The man looked straight at him, and saw that the young man did not feel guilty and avoided him, but became more and more determined. He said coldly: Your behavior only needs one word.Do you know what it is?
...Is it stupid?The boy smiled bitterly:
I used to be in a butcher shop, and my boss often said this to me.He knew that his boss was very good to him.The apprentice who was not yet full of his master suddenly said he wanted to leave, but he would never get the 500-liang of white taels. Even if he was cut, it was not worth it. Usually, he would beat him with a stick. Once the wind was heard, he would never return to this industry in his life.
You are wrong.The man smiled.The boy then noticed that he had a weird accent, and the tips of the long felt boots on his feet were slightly raised, which looked like the styles of the Donghai local or even the Yangtu.It is meaning.Your efforts are not for yourself, and you do not seek rewards. You do not care about your insignificance and insignificance. As long as it is what you should do, you will want to complete it even if you sacrifice your life. This is unswerving.
The man said seriously: Righteousness is a noble quality.It exists in your blood vessels, flowing forever, giving strength when you are weak and guiding the direction when you are confused.Not everyone can have such precious blood from heaven. Even if they have it, they cannot continue their blood by marrying a wife and having children.Meaning is faith, and the blood of righteousness can only be passed on by faith.
The belief of righteousness?The boy murmured.
There are people in Nanling, who, like you, shed the noble blood of Feng Huáng - which is the respectful title of the blood of righteousness in the south - and the kings of the feudal countries of Nanling, belong to the noblest Feng Huáng tribe of the feather tribe.In order to defend this precious blood of faith and to eliminate the injustice and injustice in the world, they vowed not to marry, not to cherish children, not to grant titles, not to accumulate wealth, to end honor and disgrace, and to have no belongings in their bodies, and to practice this word of righteousness for life until they close their eyes.
The boy was confused when he heard this and said for a moment: Are you...are you such a person?
I am.If you want, you can become that person.The man stood up and the boy realized that he was tall and slender, with a narrow waist and wide waist, and his soft and thick beard and thick hair fluttered in the wind. He looked like a giant object behind him. Even without a golden jade belt, he still had an indescribable solemn and powerful pressure.
He put his big hand like a palm-fried fan on the boy's shoulder, and his eyes were filled with a warm smile.
Do you know who asked me to come?The boy shook his head.
It is the owner of Li, the butcher shop in Jinqiao.The ronin grinned.He said that a cute apprentice left and might have to do stupid things, but he couldn't persuade him, and he was very worried.It was him who told me about the injustice between the father and daughter of Old Man Xu, and said that over the past year, you have been running outside the twenty-five garden every day, and you only eat a bowl of tofu brain and leave, just to see Old Man Xu's daughter.The boss said he had never seen you as stupid as he wanted to propose marriage. He prepared some money for you just waiting for you to speak.
The boy was stunned, and tears suddenly filled his eyes like a rising tide.
Now you are about to rush in, and you are trying your best to kill Liang Chengwu, but you can't kill Liang Chengwu. However, if you lose your life, it is difficult to guarantee that you will not involve innocent people.What if there are loyal and righteous people in his servants who are trying their best to stop you, and they also want to stop you, will you not kill them?
The boy was speechless.
Hiding a sharp knife, and dying to repay revenge is what the assassin does.Assassins can avenge revenge, but they cannot make justice work.The man smiled casually, his eyes became bold, and his indescribable brilliance was radiating, making people's hearts boil:
Those who can implement the word "Yi" and help the weak and the strong, and defend the way are the rangers!
◇ ◇ ◇
The venue for the Three Vehicles of Treatise on Dharma is set in front of the Juecheng Arhat Hall of Lianjue Temple.
The huge square was covered with large areas of finely polished bluestone bricks, reflected by the rising sun, and the ancient and gentle dark green light seemed to have a little bit of gold sand. It instantly made people feel like they were stepping onto the Leiyin Temple in the West. Not only the princes and nobles who were sitting on the high platform were amazed, but even the officials at all levels along the mountain were swaying, and they were unable to do so for a long time.
There is a magnificent partial hall on both sides of Juecheng Arhat Hall, called the ten directions, the bright and the sliver of all the leaks. The three halls are in the shape of a square. The three high platforms in the venue are built according to the hall. The two left and right platforms are divided into five levels, which are more than three zhang high. The Fengtai in the Intermediate is directly based on the steps of Juecheng Arhat Hall, and a gold-painted hollow colored building of four zhang high can accommodate 500 Jinwu guards, surrounded by layers, and are like iron barrels; the top is veiled on all sides for the queen to rest and listen to the Dharma.
There is a five-petal lotus platform more than meter high in the center of the square, which is where the Buddhist sons and the monks come to the stage to preach.As for the temples at Lianjue Temple, all of them are decorated with lights and magnificent decorations, which need no words.
During the preparations for the conference, monk Xianyi from Lianjue Temple suddenly reported bad news of a stroke, which made the Fusi Lord Chi Fengjun shocked. He was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. He came to the door several times but didn't see anyone.After finally getting stable, Chi Fengjun visited the temple and found out that he was stolen from the bed and was lying on the bed without knowing the situation. He was just pretending to be sick by making an excuse, and he was frustrated with a frustrated Lord Fusi.
Fortunately, several young monks with the word "Expression" were very capable. They not only took over the arrangement, but also took out all the funds for the Dharma Assembly collected by Xianyi. In addition, the silver and aid support from the Wu family in Yuepu were also in place in time, and finally more personnel were sent to complete the arrangement at the time designated by the Buddhist son.Even Murong Rou couldn't help but nod when she saw it: The manpower and venue are orderly, thank you Lord Chi.Seeing such a grand occasion, the Empress should be very happy and submitted a letter to the court to remember a contribution to Lord Chi.
How dare you?Chi Fengjun lost weight all over, and his cheeks, which were already clear, were slightly sunken. He was exhausted and wrote them all on his face. He smiled bitterly: It's too big a man, but he dared not take credit for his subordinates, just seeking nothing wrong.The safety of the police at the foot of Alan Mountain depends entirely on the general.
Murong Rou had no expression on her face, and Shi Junyu, who was accompanying her bowed and said, "You are polite, Lord Fusi."Jinwu Guard guards the mountain road and strictly controls it. Even my general can only bring such a few people. Today's conference will definitely be free from leaks and is safe, so don't worry.
Since the Empress arrived at Qifeng Pavilion, Alan Mountain has only allowed the Jinwu Guards to enter and exit. No matter how many people Murong Rou dispatched from Gucheng Daying, he could only stay at the foot of the mountain. When the news of Buddha's son's arrival in the East China Sea came, in order to speed up the arrangement of the venue and do miscellaneous work, the Jinwu Guards recruited thousands of yamen runners from Yuepu and nearby counties to go up the mountain. Yuepu City Yin Liangzi was responsible for commanding to assist Chi Fengjun in handling matters of all sizes and big and small, and did not allow the Zhendong General's Mansion to intervene.
Even Murong Rou wanted to draw tens of thousands of cavalry to reinforce the Xiaojie camp in case of emergency, and the Empress also had an objection and sent a post to pass on oral instructions to let the general not disturb the military and civilians.Murong Rou had to deploy this 10,000 team outside Yuepu City. If something goes wrong in Alan Mountain, it will always be able to respond nearby compared to Gucheng Camp a hundred miles away.
As the head of civil and military officials in the East China Sea, Murong Rou arrived at the foot of Alan Mountain before dawn. In addition to the general's wife Chen Suyun and her accompanying female companion, there were also Shi Junyu, the leader of Fenglei, who was leading the way through the clouds, as well as the mistresses such as Li Yuanzhi, He Laozi, Qi Diao Liren, etc.As his status as a magnificent official in the East China Sea, the show was not very big. Unexpectedly, a Jinwu Guard at the foot of the mountain conveyed the imperial decree: those who inherited the titles of kings and royal families could bring thirty followers to the mountain; first-rank officials of the court could bring twenty people, and the following were reduced according to the rank.
Shi Junyu felt angry, and he pressed his anger, clasped his fists and said: Lord Dutong, my general is in control of the East China Sea and holds 100,000 elite soldiers in his hand. Although he is not a royal family, he is also a pillar.Not to mention the show, it seems that it is not an exaggeration to take a team of 100 people up the mountain for the safety of today's conference.
The Jinwu Guard glanced at the list in his hand, and said, "Purple Lightning, Shijunyu, the seven words cannot be favored, and he is afraid that even Murong Rou's face will not be accepted. Relying on the support of the queen and Jinwulang, he urged casually, and said with a smile on his face:
I am really sorry for the owner of the manor. The villain has the emperor's destiny, so what does the superior explain to him?The owner of the mansion is not the official system. If you put these twenty people on it, you will be considered a villain twisting his head and keeping his waist. If there are no more, I hope the owner of the mansion will forgive me and don’t make things difficult for me.
Qi Diao Liren pointed at the man, smiled with white teeth, and looked back at Li Yuanzhi: He said he didn't have a head, so why don't I help him, huh?Li Yuanzhi had a blue face and whispered: Don’t make trouble!This person can't do it.The lacquer sculpture cannot hide its disappointment: Not OK?
Murong Rou accidentally ran into the Queen's team of men, waved her hand, and simply brought only twenty people up the mountain.Seeing that there were few followers beside him, Chi Fengjun was afraid that Ren Zhuliu would come true. He was squeezed by Shi Junyu and turned blue and white. Even Murong couldn't speak in front of the queen, let alone herself?Just as he was about to comfort him with kind words, Murong Rou seemed to care little and just asked:
Have you seen the Empress today?
Chi Fengjun was stunned.Xiaguan went to Qifeng Pavilion early in the morning and met the Empress in Jin.I was afraid that I would disturb the Empress from eating and washing, so I didn't dare to stay for too long. I asked her to leave immediately.Why did the general ask this question?Murong Rou smiled faintly: It's nothing.It is circulating in the public that the Empress is not at peace recently. She wants to ask Lord Chi to see how the Empress looks and whether she needs to find another good doctor in Yuepu.
Chi Fengjun thought for a while and said with a smile: General, please be lenient.Although the lower officials did not see the Empress's appearance with their own eyes, they were full of energy when they heard the words, and the maid's tone was quite energetic, which was really not a symptom.The folk whispers are unfounded, so don’t take them to your heart.
(That means I haven't seen anyone anymore.)
Murong Rou nodded and smiled, no longer saying anything.
Chi Fengjun arranged General Zhendong and his party in the fifth stairs of the right high platform. When Murong entered the venue, he led everyone to bow down and kneel in front of the lotus platform, and gave a great gift to the queen of Fengtai in the central area. It was not until the tribute of the general sitting flat on the stands came from the stands that he stood up, but he saw the lotus gauze floating on the top of the platform, but the queen still could not see it.
Soon, a noise came into the mountains, but Dugu Tianwei and Liangzi arrived together.Oh my God!Isn’t this the Lord Murong, General Tang Zhendong?Although Dugu Tianwei was the emperor's uncle, he still kneeled down and bowed according to the routine. When he looked up, he climbed up to the platform with his big belly and laughed loudly:
It turns out that the soldiers in the East China Sea are dead, and the general only takes... Let's take a look, one, two, three... These kittens are so cold that I can't count them, and I'll get cold as soon as I count them!Hey, where is my Geng Dianwei?Could you tell me to kill me?injustice!This is really unfair!A promising young man died so hard!He ran to the stands, put his big belly on the guardrail, and whined at the central stand:
The emperor... hiccup... Empress!I... I want to seek justice!What a pity!Everyone in Liucinema showed embarrassment, and there was no trace of Hengshuying.Murong Rou knew that she was called to stay in Fengtan, and expected to climb Fengtai with her, so she disappeared.
Dugu Tianwei made a big fuss, as if there was no one around, Liang Zitong quickly called his followers to help him down, smiled at Murong Rou and said: The Marquis has drunk high early in the morning, so don’t blame him.Murong Rou glanced at him and said indifferently: It seems that Lord Cheng Yin has devoted himself to the reception of Zhaoxin Hou.
Liang Zi and Jinshi were admitted to the imperial examination. His skills in writing and writing are not inferior to General Zhendong, who was born as a swordsman. Don’t you know what he meant, and he shot the word "death" that was only after death?He helped the black veil to tidy up his python robe and said calmly: Xiaguan left the city today and occasionally saw a croaker in the cow's hoof print next to the road. I wonder if the general would see him?
The four words "Cowhound" refer to the coming of death.It is circulated in the market: The son of Liuli was secretly ordered, and the day he arrived in the East China Sea was the time when the general's mansion changed his lord; at that time, the general must be headless, or the 100,000 elite soldiers changed their flags, which was still in the uncertain sky.
The folk whispers are not trustworthy, but Liang Zi is both the confidant of the Secretariat. Since taking over Yuepu, the five leading river and port towns in the world have not touched Murong Rou's mouth. Liang Zitong directly sent people to Pingwang. General Zhendong had to change his ways and scrape off the five masters.This was said by Liang Zitong, and his intimidation was even more explicit. Today, it was Lord Zhongshu's younger brother Ren Zhuliu. If the person who heard it was not brave enough, he would be afraid that he would have changed his expression.
Murong Rou smiled and said happily: Where is Lin Jie in the East China Sea?I didn't pay much attention.Lord Chengyin is good at practicing Buddhism. He must have submitted a report to the court, wanting to break the embankment of the Sanjiang River in Yangtu to divert water to save the fish?Liang Zitong heard the meaning of Yuanshui in his words that Jinhuo could not save him. Thinking of the general of Zhendong's harsh methods and difficulty in his normal feelings, he kept silent and sneered.
After the high-ranking officials present gave a big gift to the central government, they sat down one by one, and suddenly heard a long horn sound, mixed with the sound of gongs and cymbals, rich in exotic style.
Outside the mountain gate, the concierge chanted loudly: General Zhennan - Arrive!Nanling Sangha - Arrive!A soft sedan chair with silver and pearls and jewels was raised from afar. Under the brocade tent covered with agate jade, it seemed like a little man was sitting.When they got closer, everyone discovered that the person on the sedan chair was not small at all. He was born with a very fat body, with a wide waist of three or two adult men, with black skin, a cloth scarf wrapped around his toes and a curly boot, and his clothes were full of Nanling flavor, even the habit of using spices; when the sedan chair arrived, a strong burnt sandalwood incense was sent to the wind.
The reason why he looks small is that the sedan chair is amazingly large, which requires sixteen people to carry together, is even bigger than a double-horse carriage.The sedan chair stopped in front of the lotus platform, and the fat man on the sedan chair rolled to the ground with a six or seven-year-old boy, bowing his head:
Minister--General Pu Bao, General of Zhennan, bow to the Empress!The Empress is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old!
On the high platform, Ren Zhuliu, the General of the Left Jinwu Guard, was wearing a third-grade purple robe, wearing a goldfish bag, with official boots, and a flying phoenix sword on his waist. He seemed to have listened to the order of the Queen in the gauze tent and said loudly: Chengzhi: General Pu Bao, the general of Zhennan, came from afar, and worked hard to travel, and was calm!He has profound internal skills and his voice is sent from afar. Even though there are thousands of people in the field, it is still clearly visible.
Thank you!Pubao took the boy and climbed up the platform panting.Murong Rou lowered her eyes and snorted coldly: Going to Nanling to guard the inn, she turned into a fanzi.Chen Suyun was curious and asked in a low voice: Is that the general Pu Bao of Zhennan?That...is his child?
Murong Rou frowned slightly and shook her head for a moment.He is not the kind of person who can carry his children with him.
After a moment, Pubao finally climbed to the top of the five-story platform, and followed him rushing up one by one, squeezing the terrace. There were more than a hundred people at random, and the show was not big.
Dugu Tianwei shouted: It’s not that he was hereditary princes and royal family members were awarded titles, and he could bring thirty followers. He was just a general in Zhennan. How could he bring a troupe to the opera?Pu Bao was proud, with his fingers as thick as a drumstick, curled his lips and said with a smile: This time, this general brought the monks and envoys from the fifteen countries of Nanling. There were more than ten royal families in the feudal states alone. I asked them to divide my fifteen followers by one.There is no way, fat people are afraid of heat and are prone to panting, and they don’t have enough manpower and can’t even carry a sedan chair.
Dugu Tianwei couldn't help laughing.His grandma's!It turned out to be a scene of buying people.It's such a shameful thing. You do it and you still have the face to say it.
Pu Bao finally sat down, and glanced through Dugu Tianwei, and smiled from afar: General Murong!I haven't seen you for a long time. I heard that you have had a headache for refugees recently!I think that you and I are a colleague, if you need this general to help you, you might as well speak out.God has the virtue of loving life. If the people are driven to death, it may hurt the imperial court's education. It is not beautiful.
Murong Rou smiled calmly and said: The emperor is wise and the world is ruled. What is the general’s referring to? I don’t understand what the town says, so I would like to ask the general to give me some advice.Pu Bao laughed and said: I don’t know, I only heard from people when I arrived in Donghai.So there isn't it?It's good if there is no, it's good if there is no.
Dugu Tianwei heard that the two of them were squeaking the fire from a distance, and even spitting on his head, he felt uncomfortable. He coughed twice and found a loophole: Fatty Pu, you have been in Nanling for so many years, but you only created such a son?He doesn't look like you, so what kind of eyes are there for him?He was a fat man in the eyes of others. He suddenly didn't look fat at all when he sat next to Pu Bao. He quickly whispered Fat Man Pu and refused to waste any of it.
Chen Suyun heard his vulgar words and laughed at the child, which was very disgusted. After a closer look, he realized that he was right, and it was really not a good thing.
The child had red lips and white teeth, and his eyebrows and eyes were very beautiful. Although he was only six or seven years old, his expression was quite mature. He saw that there were so many officials and great momentum at the scene, and he did not show any fear. There was a bright red mark in the center of his frowning brow, like a sword mark, but it was born naturally, very special.
The boy's clothes were clean and his hair was combed neatly, but the fabric was not expensive fabrics such as silk and satin. If he were the son of General Zhennan, this would never be the case.Pu Bao smiled, touched the child's head, and said happily: "Your Majesty has nothing to do. Last year, this child stopped the sedan chair and shouted for justice before the General Zhennan Mansion, saying that his father taught people to kill him, and asked the general to avenge him."Everyone was surprised.
Dugu Tianwei said in surprise: I can’t see Ah, Fatty Pu.When did you become so conscientious and make you feel guilty for others?If you don’t make up for the last sentence, you will most likely kill his father.There is always a villain in the story, right?
Pu Bao was not angry either and shook his hand with a smile.This time it's not me!I asked the child: Who... killed your father?He claimed the man's name, and the general was so scared that he almost pissed his pants. It turned out to be a big trouble that he couldn't afford.
It should be noted that Nanling has many vassal states, and the situation is complicated. It has been done for thousands of years and has not been subject to the substantive rule of the imperial power of the Central Tu.Since the Jin Pi Dynasty was defeated in Qingqiu Kingdom, the collapse of the six armies and the death of the emperor, the entire Nanling area, which has extremely wide land and a lot of customs, has only the interest in becoming the nominal sect leader country.By the time of Emperor Taizong, he had a great ambition to be accused of meddling in the East Continent, worked hard to govern the country, withdrew the vassals in the inner world, frequently put pressure on the Korean clans in the West Mountain, and also used troops to the Beiguan and Nanling.
Unfortunately, the martial arts of Taizong Dynasty were not good, so Beiguan finally relied on the Infant City built by Rancang Qun to avoid the mistakes of the Bichan Dynasty; the countries of Nanling fought against each other and fought endlessly, but they had the same attitude towards fighting against foreign enemies. The White Horse Dynasty fought a few small battles after several unpainful battles. Emperor Taizong finally realized that Nanling was not a land that could be conquered, and hurriedly accepted the loss of the countries, and returned with the exhausted army.
It was not until a person appeared that all this suddenly changed dramatically.His name is Duan Sizong.
This Nanlingjie Town, who was originally a county magistrate of Kunyang, a small county in the south, and later became a general of strategist, made full use of his extraordinary talents and, with a strong pen, successfully intervened in the complex situation of the feudal state and exerted sufficient influence: using troops to suppress rebellions, mediate disputes, support the king, and divide the old alliance... Since then, the sovereignty of the White Horse Dynasty has penetrated into Nanling, and is no longer just a false article.After Duan Sizong was recalled to Pingwang, which was like a frustrated death in house arrest, General Zhennan still maintained the tradition he left behind and had no military power. It was said that it was the establishment of a mansion, but it was actually more like an embassy.
Even so, General Zhennan is a chief official and a first-rank official. His name alone can scare the current general to the point of being so scattered. Who is he?
As soon as Pu Bao said, even Murong Rou couldn't help but look sideways and keep a secret.General Zhennan, who was covered in jewels, remained calm and calm, and said: That man is very capable and has a high status. He is comparable to the kings and princes in Nanling. I can't beat him even if I can't catch a few kings and send troops to surround him to death. He just regrets that he speaks too much and is really slapping himself.
Your idea is really despicable.Dugu Tianwei leaned his head and sneered.
What kind of despicable is this?And even more despicable!Pubao shook his head.Before his father duel with that man, he actually signed a life-and-death case. If he unfortunately loses, he will ask the man to take care of his son.damn it!This is a good thing, it’s a foregone conclusion that I want to kill innocent people by killing them indiscriminately, there’s no chance!
...Do you mean he is mean, or are you mean?Dugu Tianwei couldn't even hear it, and he couldn't figure out the master and servant at once.Pu Bao was about to be proud of his sarcasm, but he sneered: Fortunately, God has eyes, and this general thought of a solution, which solved this problem in just a few seconds.
What method?
I asked the child to pick up a stone and throw it to me.
Dugu Tianwei couldn't help laughing.Although I really want to say that I threw it well, Shu Ben Hou was dull and I really couldn't see what a good idea was to throw a stone of you. It would be unkind to use this to deceive the child.
Throwing the general of Zhennan with stones is to assassinate, and assassinating the general of Zhennan is a death sentence!Pubao laughed:
For criminal case review, there is no need to wait for the autumn decision. You can be beheaded and abandoned in the market immediately. There is no amnesty!Since that man signed a life-and-death case, how could he ignore the responsibility of entrusting his orphans?I had to ask me to give up my hand and let this child go. No matter what I say, I don’t have to go against chivalrous principles and do anything.
I said to my child: I can't kill him, and I guess there are not many people in the world who can do it.However, there are many things in the world that are sadder than death. Let’s teach him that life is worse than death, which can be considered as avenging your father.He reached out to caress the boy's hair.The boy looked sideways and avoided him, his little face is unstable, and he doesn't know what he is thinking.
He spoke proudly, but the scene was silent.After a moment Dugu Tianwei shook his head and sneered: I will teach you how to come up with such a sinister way. This naive person is really eyeless.Pubao is so happy that he obviously regards this as praise.Suddenly, I heard a crisp voice and said: What is this child’s name?But it is Shen Suyun.
Everyone was attracted by her beautiful voice and turned their heads one after another.Pu Bao is very handsome and has long heard that the wife of General Zhendong looks beautiful and beautiful, and is known as the number one beauty in Sanchuan. She is not at all abrupt, and she is happy to talk to her: His surname is Qian, and as for her name... Hello, what is your name?This general is busy with all kinds of things and cannot remember the trivial matters.The boy pursed his lips tightly and his face was gloomy, so he ignored him.
Chen Suyun Pity lost his father at a young age, but unfortunately hit Pubao's hand and was used as a tool to control others. If it were someone else, he might use his husband's power to rescue the child, but Pubao and Murong Rou belong to the four towns in the world, and there is no official title, so this method may not be feasible.Even though she had no knowledge of the officialdom, she also saw that Pu Bao was not kind to her husband, so she had to give up the idea, take off the gold wire bracelet on her wrist and hand it over to the young woman in red beside her:
Mrs. Geng, I want to give the child some gadgets to serve as a meeting gift.I'm sorry for you.
yes.
The young woman stood up gracefully, everyone's eyes lit up, and then she regretted: Such a beautiful beauty with snow-skinned skin and beauty didn't pay attention to it just now!Although the wife of the General Zhendong is elegant and pretty, her body is slender, not as delicate and erect as a young woman, plump and charming.This is a natural beauty Ah!
The young woman moved her lotus steps and walked straight to the seat of General Zhennan. Everyone was separated from each other and gave way to the road. They all breathed their eyes, and their breathing gradually became thicker and thicker, and the sound of swallowing saliva was heard from time to time. The scene was obviously very funny, but no one laughed.
She came to the boy, squatted down on the side of her skirt, her plump snow-stitched curves tightened the smooth satin skirt, put the golden silk bracelet on his small wrist, and smiled softly: This is the gift given to you by the general's wife, please keep it in your favor.The boy smelled her warm and fragrant breath, his little face blushed like a soft persimmon, and said shyly: I don't want it.This is worn by the girl's home, I'm not a girl.
The young woman smiled and pinched the golden wire a little smaller to prevent it from falling off his wrist.This is the general's kindness. If you reject other people's kindness, they will be sad.You don’t want the general’s wife to be sad, right?The boy glanced at Chen Suyun, and saw that she was beautiful and gentle, and her care was beyond words. Suddenly, a feeling of inexplicable sorrow suddenly appeared in his chest. He gritted his teeth and nodded silently.
Since this is the case, you can accept it and keep it safe.The young woman tidied up his clothes, tied his straps, and smiled and said: You are so good.What is the name of it? Is it good to tell my sister?I will tell you to your wife, and she will definitely be very happy.
My name is Wujiu.
This gorgeous and graceful young woman in red is naturally Fu Chijin.Chen Suyun loved her company, and did not forget to walk with her on such an important occasion as the Three Vehicles Theory. Murong Rou couldn't bear to go against her wife, so she agreed.Fu Chijin was not alone. Xianzi changed into men's clothes as usual, dressed up as a guard in the clouds, mixed with twenty entourages and went up the mountain to protect the general in close proximity - Zig Zhao's arrangement.
Fu Chijin stroked the boy's white and tender cheeks, squinted her eyes and said, "Wujiu is such a good boy."Yes, what's your enemy's name?Wujiu had not answered yet, Pu Bao, who had always stared at her chest with lust, looked slightly dark, and laughed: Is this what the general’s wife is asking?It looks like a smile, but there is no smile in my eyes.
Fu Chijin was furious and hurriedly lowered her head and stood up and said: The little woman doesn't understand the rules, so she asked casually when she was curious.General, don't be upset.Murong Rou sang: Mrs. Geng, please come back.The idle affairs of Nanling Road have nothing to do with Tokai Road, so it doesn’t matter to our town. It doesn’t matter who it is.Pu Bao laughed dryly and stopped talking.
Suddenly there was a commotion outside the mountain gate, and the concierge officer praised: Princess Fuxiang in Guzhu Country, Nanling - Arrive!A group of strong men wearing gold strands and gold knives on their waists entered the venue with a tall girl.Nanling is rich in gold and silver, but the custom is still decorated with silver. Most of the gold is exported to the north in exchange for luxury goods such as satin and porcelain. Pubao guards Nanling, and even the soft sedan chairs are decorated with silver foil to integrate into the local people's sentiments.
This team decorated with gold is particularly eye-catching when walking on the front of the Nanling Envoys Group. However, it is very eye-catching to the girl's special hair color. No one has to admit that only the dazzling flame-like real gold can match the flame-like red hair!In contrast, the color of silver is too soft to resist the dazzling and blazing red hair!
This person is... Chen Suyun has never seen such a hair color before, and she can't help but open her beautiful eyes.She was born in the family of wealthy people and had a wide range of knowledge. She had seen a businessman from Xishan Mao people several times since she was a child. Their hair and beards all had a black copper red color. Even under the sun, they were not like the golden red with flames.This is definitely not a characteristic of the Mao people.
The king of Guzhu died early and was regent from the central government.This Princess Fuxiang is the only daughter of the predecessor. It is said that she is good at riding and shooting, is quite knowledgeable and well-known, and is loved by the people. She has a high voice for ascension to the throne and regaining the throne.Murong Rou explained casually.
The Princess Fuxiang is indeed worthy of her reputation. Her snowy muscles are whiter than the best creamy ivory. Chen Suyun has never seen them in her life, and she never even thought that there would be such a white and dazzling skin color. In addition, her nose is tall and straight, her facial features are deep, and her body is no less than the Golden Wire Guard who is accompanying her. She is really beautiful and heroic. She can't help but feel heartbroken and said with longing:
The people in Nanling are so special that they can actually have a queen.If I were born as a citizen of Guzhu Kingdom, I would also like to have such a queen!
Not that easy.Murong Rou said calmly: Yiyang and Guzhu have been intermarried for several generations. The two families have similar bloodlines, and the problem of orthodox throne has gradually emerged.Princess Fuxiang may be the lord of Guzhu or the Queen of Yiyang. It’s up to see who found such a token first.
Chen Suyun said in surprise: Token?
Well, if Yiyang finds it first, you can ask the Guzhu Kingdom to fulfill the engagement and marry Princess Fuxiang to Yiyang; such a remnant vein may not have been close to the sons of the Lord of Yiyang Kingdom and the Princess. In the future, will the Guzhu Kingdom be the treasure of the Lord of Yiyang Kingdom?On the contrary, if the token is held in the hands of Guzhu Kingdom, Princess Fuxiang will not only not have to marry, but will also be able to ascend the throne smoothly. No matter who she recruits as a prince, the bloodline of her son will be stronger than that of the Yiyang, so the country and the ancestral temple will be safe.
Chen Suyun was quick-thinking. After thinking a little, he immediately understood the key points and sighed: Are there so many plans to get married and marry a man?Touching the heartstrings, I dare not look at my husband's expression in the corner of my eyes; I forced a smile and quickly change the topic.I really hope that the token ended up in the hands of the princess, otherwise it would be better if I could never find it.
It is hard to find if you lose the war.Princess Fuxiang still refuses to urge her to get married on this ground.
What kind of token is that?
It's a treasure knife.Murong Judo: The name of the sword is called Divine Art.
Fu Chijin was shocked when she heard this. Geng Zhao suddenly broke up with the things she said to her. The red-haired girl in Ai Lang's mouth and the image of the Fu Xiang Princess with red hair, snow-skinned skin and golden jade belt in front of her suddenly overlapped, and it was no longer clear.
--It's her!
(It turns out that she is Princess Fuxiang from Guzhu Country, Nanling!)
◇ ◇ ◇
Geng Zhao and his group of six left the courtyard and fled.
Miss Ayan has no martial arts skills and is supported by Han Xuese, but his internal strength is almost gone. Even though his legs are long and wide, it is not as good as using light sprints. Feng Huang's internal organs are new, and one arm is hooked against Geng Zhao, half-drag and half-run, and the situation is also very bad.In contrast, Nie and Mu Ershao were beaten to vomit blood by Geng Zhao because of carelessness. After all, the injuries were mild, and Mu Yunse could help Fu Fenghuang, and Nie Yuse was responsible for cutting off the back.
Geng Zhao's goal is the garrison at the north gate of Yuepu.
There were more than 500 city gate guards stationed there. Even if they were unable to defeat the man in black, there were thirty cavalry of the patrol camp waiting to respond outside the north gate. This was an arrangement to prevent the conflict between Feng Huang and the Qigong Gate, or to run away if either party robbed Bi Lingxiao. At this time, it was actually useful.The brothers in the inspection camp came from the elite iron cavalry army of Gucheng camp. They were no different from ordinary soldiers and yamen runners. They charged forward with one tithing and one brigade. Even Geng Zhao himself was not sure of retreating; he was in good command and should subdue the strange men in black.
According to the current footprint, it takes at least one quarter of an hour to reach the North Gate on foot, which makes Geng Zhao unable to get up anyway.
Although the restrictions in his veins were forcibly broken through by the man in black, the already unstable internal breathing that was like a boiling water frying pan is even more surging and difficult to control now.Geng Zhao was running, and from time to time, he felt blood in his sight, his chest was stuffy and swelling, and the buzzing noise in his skull was endless, as if something was about to break out of his body in the next moment. It was not easy to just maintain sanitation.
But he can't fall now.
As the only one of the six who is still known as complete in combat, he must stand up at the worst moment-
But he never expected it to come so quickly.
not good!Nie Yuse, the last team, glanced back and suddenly staggered and almost fell. Mu Yunse quickly helped her and frowned and said: What's wrong, second senior brother?Nie Yuse wiped the blood from the corners of her mouth and said coldly: Damn, the formation is broken... This guy is so awesome!Suddenly, he came back to his senses and pushed his junior brother quickly, gritting his teeth and pulling out his legs: Let's go... go quickly!He is here...quick, quick, quick!
The rapid sound burst out from a calm person, which made me feel very frightened.The six people ran forward along a white wall, but it seemed that there was no end. Geng Zhao's heart was filled with a hint of horror. Before he could turn around, Nie and Mu fell silently, and then half of his body sank, and Feng Huang stopped moving; he had not even thought of holding Zangfeng, and the person who came had already faced him and took advantage of the opportunity to sweep forward!
The palm strength is lighter than expected.Perhaps it was because of the rushing internal force in his body... his thoughts were not stopped, and the thunderous pain passed through Geng Zhao's left half of his body, as if he was penetrated by several sharp steel nails as thick as a little finger at the same time. The pain made his eyes turn white. He still maintained the posture of his right palm connecting with the enemy, and his left knee fell to the ground with force.
The target of the man in black attack was never his right palm.
Geng Zhao seemed to have even deprived of the ability to see the object in his left eye, and the images reflected in his right eye were at all. Han Xuese fell to the ground and the figure of the man in black were flat, almost unable to tell the distance. Only Miss Ayan's pale face was getting bigger and bigger and bigger... Until a ball of warm and soft fragrance hit her arms, he could instinctively turn back her arms and barely catch the beauty.
Han Xuese once again played her decisive and decisive decision-making that was easy to be an ordinary person. At the moment of attack, she pushed her lover to the last person on the scene who might have the chance to protect her, and the green silk on her waist.The judgment of this opportunity was even beyond the expectations of the man in black. He was successful and there was no gap.
Good guy.The man in black kicked the Lord of the Qi Palace who was resting on the ground and walked towards Geng Zhao who was supporting him by the wall.Geng Zhao's left half of his body had turned from severe pain to paralysis, but it was not helpful to defend against the enemy at all. His only moveable right arm was wrapped around Miss Ayan, trying to cover her with his body, and moved backwards while dragging his insensitive left leg.
Despair stuck to him like a shadow, and a dark piece pulled out from under his feet and slowly sank down.
what you do?
The voice coming from behind was full of sharp voice. He was a boy who had just grown an Adam's apple and had a voice change at the beginning.
The man in black stopped.Of course it was not because of the boy, but the man in a rogue costume and a big cloak behind him.Although he had never met, he recognized who this person was at a glance and was evaluating whether being an enemy of him would be the biggest mistake in this trip.
…Save people.
The ronin answered the boy, while untiing the lace of the giant thing behind him, clang!With a sound, it was sunk in front of you, and the bottom was three inches, which showed its sank.The ronin didn't seem to feel heavy at all. His palms overlapped, leaning on the giant figure that looked like a huge slat, as high as the junction of the chest and diaphragm, and a calm smile was sucked in his soft and thick beard.
--This person is good at fighting, and there are even more rumors.
(Tough!)
The man in black silently listed a reason not to fight, but the young man didn't know that he was calculating and asked Ronin: How do you know who is the good person and who is the bad person?
To be a chivalrous and righteous person, one must have enough wisdom.When the situation is urgent and cannot distinguish right from wrong, first save the weak and make them unharmed, and then judge justice.The man smiled and said: But there is no wisdom at this moment. Those who cover their faces in the daytime and attack women are definitely not good things.You stand by, it won’t take a long time.The knot was pulled apart, and the coarse cloth slid down with a squeak.
The huge object that was long enough to the chest and wide enough to the waist was not a big sword, but a sword.The hilt of the sword that is more than three feet thicker than the mouth of the cup, the thigh of the sword is like a bell and chime, larger than one hand shield, with horn-like oblique lengths of the hand guards on both sides, and the end length is more than half of the hilt. From a distance, it looks like the word "Tian" in the form of Li.
The hollowed-out sword sheath is also very simple, with copper nails the size of longan-eye, like an ancient bell and tripod.The sword body, thicker than the adult thigh, was inserted into the sheath, the frosty and cold steel color reflected the copper color, and the two slanted hand guards like Wu hooks and halberd branches on the hilt were like a long and inverted character. Geng Zhao suddenly remembered someone.
--Like the sky and the tripod, the sword exceeds a thousand pounds!
(If it were him... he would be saved!)
The towering black tiles and white walls reflect the bright sky light, as if they are endless toward both ends of the horizon.In the wall, there are deep and thick canopy stacks, but the five most famous pavilions are still covered by the last night, and even the hazy outline is hard to see.
Yokoura has always been a city that never sleeps.
Before the general of Zhendong entered, the night markets, restaurants, etc. were all night long, and it was often only after the third update that the genius was willing to stop. Most of the residents in the city rose in a quiet place. The area north of Fengqiu Gate where the twenty-five gardens were located was mostly garden villas for the rich, and their daily routines were more late than ordinary people.
Today is a rare exception.Before the fifth day, the 25th garden was already brightly lit and all the servants were busy. Soon, Liang Zitong, the Lord of the Yin of the City, and Dugu Tianwei, the lord of Liuying City, drove towards the north gate surrounded by a large number of followers, and went straight to the Lianjue Temple in Alan Mountain.
The Three Vehicles Conference on the Treatise on the Law is not for the common people. Only invited princes, nobles, and wealthy gentry can attend the meeting. The etiquette of going up the mountain to pay homage is no different from the saints entering the palace. It is also that before dawn, I rushed to the foot of Alan Mountain to submit famous letters, and waited for the people from the Taiwan Department of the Donghai Road to the Taiwan Department to release the titles one by one, and then the Jinwu guards of the guards of the guards of the guards were guided into the venue.It's not yet my turn. All high-ranking officials, nobles, generals and ministers have to stay in the wild shed at the foot of the mountain, no one can beat the queen.
This is not a good thing for ordinary people who are not qualified to approach Alan Mountain.The brigade of men left the city gate in a hurry, and the surroundings of the huge twenty-five gardens returned to peace. Even the four city officials with feathers in front of the gate and holding water and fire sticks were restored to their usual laziness, sitting or leaning on them, dozing off with the painted red and dark water and fire sticks.
One of them was not sleepy and was bored. When he saw a small stall under the tree opposite, a dark and thick boy was carrying a bamboo basket load, and he didn't know how to shout and shout. He sat blankly under the shade of the tree wearing a hat, but he didn't know what was stored in the bamboo basket. The smell of hot charcoal frequently drifted, making people hungry and pounding drums all over his stomach.
The man waved to him, hey, you!come over!
The boy was stunned and looked around. After hearing the man shouting a few more times, he realized that he was calling him, so he quickly took on the load and stepped forward.There was a large jar in each of the bamboo baskets in front and behind him. One of them was filled with red charcoal. As soon as the thick charcoal fragrance approached, the other three men woke up one after another.
I ask you, what is simmering in your charcoal stove?I'll tell you honestly, the master will beat you up!The official who called the person deliberately raised his face and asked ruthlessly.The boy was shocked and hesitated and couldn't speak. Another yamen officer couldn't see it. He pushed his colleague with his elbow and said in a low voice: Don't you recognize it?This stall belongs to Old Man Xu.
After he said this, the man suddenly realized it.Old man Xu?You mean that Xu... his daughter is not... Seeing his companion's face slightly changed, I remembered that incident. I had issued a ban on my head, and I was afraid that I had accidentally caused trouble. However, after all, I couldn't let go of my face, so I still took the airs of the public and looked at the boy:
Who are you Old Man Xu?
Another official who responded just now showed resentment and muttered: Who do you care about him?Just hurry up and don’t make trouble for everyone!The man couldn't bear to hear his colleague's remarks, so he reached out and stopped him, and said coldly: Don't.Grandpa, just figure out what he is from!I have been sneaking here for several days, maybe I am a thief.
The boy was frightened and trembled: Official... Master!I...I'm not a thief!Then Xu... Old Man Xu fell ill, and said, "I asked for money to treat the disease, and I gave it to me...Others...I don't know anything else!Master, Master, Master, understand!The man was relieved when he heard this, and was proud and turned around and smiled at his colleagues:
Yes or no?I said, Old Man Xu is just a tender daughter, where does the black boy come from?Ha ha ha ha.Seeing that his colleague turned his head speechlessly, the boss was bored and asked the young man again: Hey, are you still selling tofu brains after you have been blocked by someone else’s stall?Make a few bowls for the men to taste. If the taste is good, you will be able to set up a stall opposite you to make a living; it will ruin grandpa's appetite and break your legs!
The boy's face turned pale. He took out the cup and a thin piece of iron from the back basket, uncovered the lid of the jar, and a warm and full bean fragrance came to his nose.He scraped the urn with thin iron slices, picked up a few smears of snow-white tofu brains like cloud strips, and put them into the cup; the charcoal jar in the front basket was a ready-made stove, put a shallow-bottomed iron wok on it, scoop a spoonful of soup made of mushrooms and beef bones, add fine black fungus, pickled vegetables, and parsley powder, mix them with cold water and make a braised mung bean powder, pour it into the cup, then put some garlic juice and red oil and green beans, and a bowl of fresh and fragrant beef tofu brain was finished.
The official sent a cup of rice. The braised ginger made of mung bean powder, broth and soy sauce made of mung bean powder, broth and soy sauce were orange-red and transparent, and the sauce was as crisp as amber. The spoon was scooped off, but the braised ginger was not leaking at all, but it was still covered with the tofu brain. The scent of onions and garlic was steamed by the boiling braised ginger, which was layered with the aroma of tofu brain and the fresh sweetness of beef mushrooms in the broth, which was extremely layered.
The head of the prince tasted it, his eyes lit up slightly, and he wanted to praise it. He felt that he had just taken a bite and softened his mouth. It was inevitable that Wu Laoqi would look down on him. He told him that he would be a human being in the future?He coughed twice and hummed:
The braised braised well, but it is the time to use a spatula and learn quickly.Compared with the original owner of the stall, your tofu brain is too brine, which is not as soft, smooth and tender as before, and has a bitter taste.Old Man Xu's tofu brain is unique, fragrant, smooth, white and tender, just like his watery daughter.The other two laughed when they were indescribable.
Wu Laoqi tasted a spoonful of the mouth with him before, frowned and said: Is that right?I think it's pretty good.A harder mouth is elastic, and it tastes very good with braised scallion beads, so it may not lose.He was taking out copper coins into his clothes, but was stopped by the head official: Wu Laoqi, I have worked together with you and me to work hard, right?What are you doing? Accumulating good deeds for your two kids?The other two also looked at questioning.Wu Laoqi smacked his lips and ate the tofu brain clean.
The official Lao Youde suppressed him, and became more arrogant and stacked the remaining cups into a pile. Seeing the boy reaching out to pick him up, he suddenly let go of his hand. With a loud bang, the four cups fell to pieces at the boy's feet.
Your tofu brain is not bad, so your legs will not be hit. I will send it to you first.When I see the man taking office, I will first cook a few bowls of filial piety. Next time, I will ask you to ask me and I will smash your stall!Ming spoke to the boy, but he glanced at Wu Laoqi intentionally or unintentionally, and his smile was cold.Wu Laoqi knew that he was annoyed that he was too angry, and no matter how entangled he was, it would just drag the young man to get angry, so he turned a blind eye and leaned on a water and fire stick.
Many... Thank you, Master.
Lao Youde hummed and laughed.This kid is not bad, he is much more aware of his appearance than Old Man Xu.
If he obediently sent his daughter to the mansion, would it cause death?What kind of parents raise and what kind of cubs are, the old and the young are generally unaware of each other.The young master Yin is not unfair to be fond of beauty. The young nuns in the twenty-five gardens are so charming that they are not as beautiful as the family, at least they can eat and dress well, and they can also bring money to their families. Many families are rushing to send their daughters, but they are afraid that the young master will not look down on them.What are you, Old Man Xu, pretending to be too noble!
Look at you are not old, he scratched his chin and looked at the boy with a strange and interesting look.What was it for?
The boy dared not refuse to answer, so he stood up and wiped his hands on his short shirt, and said in a low voice: Go back to the master, do odd jobs in the butcher shop.
Lao Youde was a little surprised.
The butcher's life is easy to make money, why don't you continue to do it?
Back... Go back... Go back, the villain is afraid of... afraid of killing. After listening to other people's advice, he changed to a life without blood.
The officials looked at each other, and after a while, laughter suddenly broke out, holding their stomachs and leaning back and forth. Even Wu Laoqi couldn't help but shake his head when he heard this, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.Lao Youde laughed and said: With your promising prospects, it is appropriate to sell tofu brains.Don't get out of here?
The boy hurriedly packed up the broken tiles and carried the load back to the tree. He was disturbed by the officials from the twenty-five gardens, and no one dared to visit him for the time being.The boy took a worn cotton towel and wiped the sweat all over her head and face. It seemed that he could smell a faint fragrance of powder on the towel, but he knew that the owner of the towel did not use rouge and water powder, which was the fragrance on her body, and she was born to smell so good.
He stopped his movements without realizing it, sat in a daze under the tree. When he came to his senses, he had reached his left hand into the bottom of the basket and held the pre-hidden wrist-removing knife.It's today, the boy thought.Miss Shuangshuang, you have a spirit in heaven. Bless me, I will definitely succeed. I will let the beast's internal organs be cut off and spread them like a pig's chamber to comfort you father and daughter.
In addition to the sharp knife that is sharply ground and wrapped in layers of cloth, there is also a small bottle of coarse earthy wine.He lied to Lao Youde. In the butcher shop in Jinqiao, Jinqiao, he has always been the most respected apprentice. He can kill pigs and relieve cattle with a sharp knife.It’s the girl Shuangshuang who doesn’t like to see blood. Every time she visits the tofu brain stall, she can always smell a faint smell of blood.
Why not stop killing pigs and learn...to make tofu brains?Once, he finally plucked up the courage to ask, and immediately lowered his head, not daring to look at her pretty face.But Miss Shuangshuang just put his tofu brain beside her and said with a smile: Making tofu brain is very hard and can't make much money.You are young and have a great future, and you do anything better than this.
He felt extremely regretful of his hesitation at that time.
If I were there that day--he thought so more than once, and then woke up from the terrifying nightmare of her humiliation and biting her tongue and splashing blood in the room, with tears on her face covered with sweat.
Unfortunately, life cannot be repeated.If he had a chance to do it again, he would not care about his appearance. No matter how Shuangshuang, he would just think that he was a guest who came to eat tofu and chat every day. He would show his feelings to her even if he died, even if he couldn't get anything...
After all, killing a person is different from killing a pig. He thought he needed to drink and calm down, but when things came to an end, his heart was silent, and he even looked forward to death and liberation after success.
The boy didn't even touch the wine. He was about to take out the cloth bag wrapped in a knife and saw a man wrapped in a shabby cloak with a bed or a bench behind him. He squatted by the wall with his hands in his chest, his bright eyes staring at himself - or the tofu brain urn with charcoal fragrance.
The man had been squatting there for three days... No, maybe it was longer, but he only noticed this guy three days ago.The boy had never read a book and could not say the word "dust" was a word, but the man seemed to have walked through thousands of miles of wilderness. He was not as lush as a beggar, but was covered in wind and frost, with an indescribable feeling of fatigue. After a glance, he could not help but think of home.
In a wealthy city like Yuepu, there are more beggars than in remote areas.The boy had seen straw mats, bedding, and even a few stools in his family. However, the things that the man carries were very strange, more than half a person tall, with a contour of a large surface and a giant anchor used by a large ship in the port. In short, it was very thick and wrapped in layers of coarse cloth on the outside, so I really couldn't tell what it was.
Should he be hungry?The boy thought.
After Miss Shuangshuang left, he quit his job at the butcher shop, carried the five taels of silver given to him by the boss, and studied with Old Man Xu for more than half a year. Until Old Man Xu took his last breath, it was still the pit he dug for the straw mat he wrapped in for the old man, covering the soil one by one.The old man came to ask for his daughter, but was beaten by the official and was covered in bruises. He could last for half a year, but it was probably because of the injustice in his heart.
They rarely talked during the past six months, and maybe they didn't know what to say. They were originally just two people who sold tofu brain and bought tofu brain, and they were not familiar with each other.
Old Man Xu's work is not simple. He became an apprentice and learned it for three years just by soaking soybeans and grinding soy milk, not to mention making salt. Every step was hard work and effort. However, for some reason, the young man learned it in half a year and did it well.It's really strange. The old man thought, he was obviously a careless person and could not say he had any talent.
Old Man Xu never said thank you.
Old Man Xu has seen many young men like this.Everyone came for his beautiful daughter. Even if the bowl was filled with rotten water pig food, it still ate delicious food, which really ruined his good skills... Only he, after Shuangshuang died, gave up the butcher shop who could make money, came to him, the dying man who was breathing, and picked up the pot and cauldron soaked soybeans again, grind the beans and boiled milk.
They were thinking about one thing, but they didn't say it.
Liang Chengwu, the son of Liang Zitong, the son of Lord Yin of Chengyin, likes to eat salty tofu brain, which is well known. When Mr. Liang was shocked to realize that Old Man Xu actually had a beautiful daughter, he had eaten his beef tofu brain for several years.After Shuangshuang's accident, Old Man Xu was beaten to a half-dead, and no one sold these soft, smooth and delicious snacks outside the twenty-five gardens.But people are addicted, just like Mr. Liang did not kill a vendor's daughter, and since then he ate vegetarian food and worshiped Buddha, and no longer attacked the beautiful girls.
The boy calmed down and prepared a cup of hot beef tofu brain, which was brought to the man opposite the street.
Are you hungry?The boy did not show his arrogant and superior attitude because of his sacrificing person, but instead he was like explaining his funeral, with a kind of quiet awareness and understanding.Eat slowly and won’t charge you.Be careful to burn your mouth.
The man took it with both hands, raised the cup and gave it a slight tribute to him, and put it into his mouth with spoonfuls of spoonfuls, closing his eyes to tell the taste.The boy suddenly found it interesting: this man looked like a beggar and ronin from a distance, but when he looked close, he realized that he was not dirty at all. He behaved gently and had an indescribable nobleness. His eyes were so stunning that he could make people feel awe without opening his mouth, but he looked like a big man on a tour in a very small way.
What's strange is that such an outstanding temperament is not as good as the travel suit that is covered with dust and fresh and frost, as if it should be like this, without any abruptness.The man was about forty or fifty years old - perhaps actually older - with a beard full of beards, but not a stern protruding like a hard halberd. The beard roots are soft and thick, with a moisturized silk-like silk.
Looking up close, the man actually had a straight nose and a square chin, and a dense beard in his travels, adding a little bit of a world of martial arts. He shaved off most of his savage beards and put on an embroidered golden robe and jade ring. Some people believed it to be a prince and a marquis.
He finished eating slowly one bite by one, returned the cup with both hands, took out the handkerchief and gently pressed the corner of his mouth, and patted the little leftovers stained with his beard.The boy felt that this was right: at the end of his life, he was very happy that the last bowl of tofu brain he cooked himself gave to a person who knew the taste, rather than the fierce official servants outside the garden.
Well-beated.After a while, the ronin opened his eyes, and there seemed to be a smile in his eyes, but his tone was serious and serious, without any frivolity.But the salt of tofu brain is too buckled, the texture is slightly hard, and it also has a hint of bitter taste of brine, which is a pity.
The boy smiled bitterly.
If it weren't for the fact that this place was far away from the gate and the voice was hard to reach, he almost thought that the great man said so after hearing what the official said.Tomorrow you try to hook it thinner.It is said: Fresh marinade of tofu, a cup of delicious flavor is used to make the morning sun.The taste is so strong, it’s a pity that you don’t easily lose your grease.The big man suddenly remembered something, took out a hanging of new money from his arms and handed it over, and said with a smile:
I forgot to give the money.Where I come, people like us don't make money.
It seems... it's really a beggar.The boy shook his head.Everyone said that I won’t charge you money.
Accept it.The man smiled and said: I'm here to eat tomorrow, so I can't give it to you.
...It won't open tomorrow.Don't wait.
That day after tomorrow?
The boy suddenly became irritable, took the empty bowl and turned around and left.
The smell of blood in killing people is different from killing animals.
The boy stopped in shock and saw that the man was still standing on the corner of the wall with his hands crossed his knees, and a smile pursed at the corner of his mouth.
He had to walk back, quietly stretched his hand to his waist, and held the wrist-removing knife hidden under his clothes - Ruolangren shouted loudly, and he had no chance to break into the garden.For the sake of the Law-Control Conference, thousands of officials from Yuepu were all out of the city, and only the Liang family's guards were left in the twenty-five gardens, and most of them followed Lord Cheng Yin to Alan Mountain.
The people around Liang Chengwu can no longer be as young as they are today.This is the only opportunity.
(Please show the sharp knife, maybe you can teach him not to speak?)
Ronin seemed to read his thoughts, looked up earlier, and smiled: How long have you known Old Man Xu?Three years, or five years?
The boy was stunned and said: Two...two years.Actually, it's far from it.Including the past six months since the two really got along, he knew that there was Old Man Xu, this tofu brain stall, and the beautiful and fairy-like girl, at most, a little more a year.Just admitting that he was not familiar with the Xu family’s father and daughter, unexpectedly frustrated the boy.
Ronin nodded with a smile. When I came to Yuepu in the past, I would always visit Old Man Xu's beef soup tofu brain. When his daughter was so young... he squatted and compared it to his eyebrows. I've also hugged her. In recent years, I have rarely walked in the East China Sea. I don’t expect that the little girls of that year have become big girls. You buried them? Can you take me to pick up an incense stick?
The boy took a deep breath, and then he felt a stinging pain in his heart.The Xu Family Ancestral Hall in the south of the city.Please ask Mr. Xu, who is in charge of the business, and he will take you there.I...I have something to do today.Turn around and leave.
Is it worth doing this for a woman who has never lived before and has died?The ronin stopped him, and his eyes burst into light, as if the tiger and eagle sleeping in the deep forest suddenly woke up. Every word was like a copper melon and iron hammer, hitting the boy's heart hard, with the intimidating majesty like a king, forcing the boy to breathe:
Who are you from her?Is it a brother or a lover, or a husband who has not yet been married?What is your relationship with Old Man Xu? I want to take revenge. Is it your turn?Do you want to be a hero if you force yourself?If Old Man Xu's daughter is still alive, will she hope that you will sacrifice your precious life to avenge her?
The boy was asked urgently like a string of cannons, and couldn't help but be stunned. After a moment, he shook his head and said: I have never read a book, I can only kill pigs and cows. I can't answer any of the questions you asked.But no matter who asks me about this, or asks me hundreds or thousands of times, the result will be the same.I want to do this for Miss Shuangshuang.I can only do this for Miss Shuangshuang.I just want to... just seek justice.If I can't do this, I will not be able to sleep well in my life.
The man looked straight at him, and saw that the young man did not feel guilty and avoided him, but became more and more determined. He said coldly: Your behavior only needs one word.Do you know what it is?
...Is it stupid?The boy smiled bitterly:
I used to be in a butcher shop, and my boss often said this to me.He knew that his boss was very good to him.The apprentice who was not yet full of his master suddenly said he wanted to leave, but he would never get the 500-liang of white taels. Even if he was cut, it was not worth it. Usually, he would beat him with a stick. Once the wind was heard, he would never return to this industry in his life.
You are wrong.The man smiled.The boy then noticed that he had a weird accent, and the tips of the long felt boots on his feet were slightly raised, which looked like the styles of the Donghai local or even the Yangtu.It is meaning.Your efforts are not for yourself, and you do not seek rewards. You do not care about your insignificance and insignificance. As long as it is what you should do, you will want to complete it even if you sacrifice your life. This is unswerving.
The man said seriously: Righteousness is a noble quality.It exists in your blood vessels, flowing forever, giving strength when you are weak and guiding the direction when you are confused.Not everyone can have such precious blood from heaven. Even if they have it, they cannot continue their blood by marrying a wife and having children.Meaning is faith, and the blood of righteousness can only be passed on by faith.
The belief of righteousness?The boy murmured.
There are people in Nanling, who, like you, shed the noble blood of Feng Huáng - which is the respectful title of the blood of righteousness in the south - and the kings of the feudal countries of Nanling, belong to the noblest Feng Huáng tribe of the feather tribe.In order to defend this precious blood of faith and to eliminate the injustice and injustice in the world, they vowed not to marry, not to cherish children, not to grant titles, not to accumulate wealth, to end honor and disgrace, and to have no belongings in their bodies, and to practice this word of righteousness for life until they close their eyes.
The boy was confused when he heard this and said for a moment: Are you...are you such a person?
I am.If you want, you can become that person.The man stood up and the boy realized that he was tall and slender, with a narrow waist and wide waist, and his soft and thick beard and thick hair fluttered in the wind. He looked like a giant object behind him. Even without a golden jade belt, he still had an indescribable solemn and powerful pressure.
He put his big hand like a palm-fried fan on the boy's shoulder, and his eyes were filled with a warm smile.
Do you know who asked me to come?The boy shook his head.
It is the owner of Li, the butcher shop in Jinqiao.The ronin grinned.He said that a cute apprentice left and might have to do stupid things, but he couldn't persuade him, and he was very worried.It was him who told me about the injustice between the father and daughter of Old Man Xu, and said that over the past year, you have been running outside the twenty-five garden every day, and you only eat a bowl of tofu brain and leave, just to see Old Man Xu's daughter.The boss said he had never seen you as stupid as he wanted to propose marriage. He prepared some money for you just waiting for you to speak.
The boy was stunned, and tears suddenly filled his eyes like a rising tide.
Now you are about to rush in, and you are trying your best to kill Liang Chengwu, but you can't kill Liang Chengwu. However, if you lose your life, it is difficult to guarantee that you will not involve innocent people.What if there are loyal and righteous people in his servants who are trying their best to stop you, and they also want to stop you, will you not kill them?
The boy was speechless.
Hiding a sharp knife, and dying to repay revenge is what the assassin does.Assassins can avenge revenge, but they cannot make justice work.The man smiled casually, his eyes became bold, and his indescribable brilliance was radiating, making people's hearts boil:
Those who can implement the word "Yi" and help the weak and the strong, and defend the way are the rangers!
◇ ◇ ◇
The venue for the Three Vehicles of Treatise on Dharma is set in front of the Juecheng Arhat Hall of Lianjue Temple.
The huge square was covered with large areas of finely polished bluestone bricks, reflected by the rising sun, and the ancient and gentle dark green light seemed to have a little bit of gold sand. It instantly made people feel like they were stepping onto the Leiyin Temple in the West. Not only the princes and nobles who were sitting on the high platform were amazed, but even the officials at all levels along the mountain were swaying, and they were unable to do so for a long time.
There is a magnificent partial hall on both sides of Juecheng Arhat Hall, called the ten directions, the bright and the sliver of all the leaks. The three halls are in the shape of a square. The three high platforms in the venue are built according to the hall. The two left and right platforms are divided into five levels, which are more than three zhang high. The Fengtai in the Intermediate is directly based on the steps of Juecheng Arhat Hall, and a gold-painted hollow colored building of four zhang high can accommodate 500 Jinwu guards, surrounded by layers, and are like iron barrels; the top is veiled on all sides for the queen to rest and listen to the Dharma.
There is a five-petal lotus platform more than meter high in the center of the square, which is where the Buddhist sons and the monks come to the stage to preach.As for the temples at Lianjue Temple, all of them are decorated with lights and magnificent decorations, which need no words.
During the preparations for the conference, monk Xianyi from Lianjue Temple suddenly reported bad news of a stroke, which made the Fusi Lord Chi Fengjun shocked. He was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. He came to the door several times but didn't see anyone.After finally getting stable, Chi Fengjun visited the temple and found out that he was stolen from the bed and was lying on the bed without knowing the situation. He was just pretending to be sick by making an excuse, and he was frustrated with a frustrated Lord Fusi.
Fortunately, several young monks with the word "Expression" were very capable. They not only took over the arrangement, but also took out all the funds for the Dharma Assembly collected by Xianyi. In addition, the silver and aid support from the Wu family in Yuepu were also in place in time, and finally more personnel were sent to complete the arrangement at the time designated by the Buddhist son.Even Murong Rou couldn't help but nod when she saw it: The manpower and venue are orderly, thank you Lord Chi.Seeing such a grand occasion, the Empress should be very happy and submitted a letter to the court to remember a contribution to Lord Chi.
How dare you?Chi Fengjun lost weight all over, and his cheeks, which were already clear, were slightly sunken. He was exhausted and wrote them all on his face. He smiled bitterly: It's too big a man, but he dared not take credit for his subordinates, just seeking nothing wrong.The safety of the police at the foot of Alan Mountain depends entirely on the general.
Murong Rou had no expression on her face, and Shi Junyu, who was accompanying her bowed and said, "You are polite, Lord Fusi."Jinwu Guard guards the mountain road and strictly controls it. Even my general can only bring such a few people. Today's conference will definitely be free from leaks and is safe, so don't worry.
Since the Empress arrived at Qifeng Pavilion, Alan Mountain has only allowed the Jinwu Guards to enter and exit. No matter how many people Murong Rou dispatched from Gucheng Daying, he could only stay at the foot of the mountain. When the news of Buddha's son's arrival in the East China Sea came, in order to speed up the arrangement of the venue and do miscellaneous work, the Jinwu Guards recruited thousands of yamen runners from Yuepu and nearby counties to go up the mountain. Yuepu City Yin Liangzi was responsible for commanding to assist Chi Fengjun in handling matters of all sizes and big and small, and did not allow the Zhendong General's Mansion to intervene.
Even Murong Rou wanted to draw tens of thousands of cavalry to reinforce the Xiaojie camp in case of emergency, and the Empress also had an objection and sent a post to pass on oral instructions to let the general not disturb the military and civilians.Murong Rou had to deploy this 10,000 team outside Yuepu City. If something goes wrong in Alan Mountain, it will always be able to respond nearby compared to Gucheng Camp a hundred miles away.
As the head of civil and military officials in the East China Sea, Murong Rou arrived at the foot of Alan Mountain before dawn. In addition to the general's wife Chen Suyun and her accompanying female companion, there were also Shi Junyu, the leader of Fenglei, who was leading the way through the clouds, as well as the mistresses such as Li Yuanzhi, He Laozi, Qi Diao Liren, etc.As his status as a magnificent official in the East China Sea, the show was not very big. Unexpectedly, a Jinwu Guard at the foot of the mountain conveyed the imperial decree: those who inherited the titles of kings and royal families could bring thirty followers to the mountain; first-rank officials of the court could bring twenty people, and the following were reduced according to the rank.
Shi Junyu felt angry, and he pressed his anger, clasped his fists and said: Lord Dutong, my general is in control of the East China Sea and holds 100,000 elite soldiers in his hand. Although he is not a royal family, he is also a pillar.Not to mention the show, it seems that it is not an exaggeration to take a team of 100 people up the mountain for the safety of today's conference.
The Jinwu Guard glanced at the list in his hand, and said, "Purple Lightning, Shijunyu, the seven words cannot be favored, and he is afraid that even Murong Rou's face will not be accepted. Relying on the support of the queen and Jinwulang, he urged casually, and said with a smile on his face:
I am really sorry for the owner of the manor. The villain has the emperor's destiny, so what does the superior explain to him?The owner of the mansion is not the official system. If you put these twenty people on it, you will be considered a villain twisting his head and keeping his waist. If there are no more, I hope the owner of the mansion will forgive me and don’t make things difficult for me.
Qi Diao Liren pointed at the man, smiled with white teeth, and looked back at Li Yuanzhi: He said he didn't have a head, so why don't I help him, huh?Li Yuanzhi had a blue face and whispered: Don’t make trouble!This person can't do it.The lacquer sculpture cannot hide its disappointment: Not OK?
Murong Rou accidentally ran into the Queen's team of men, waved her hand, and simply brought only twenty people up the mountain.Seeing that there were few followers beside him, Chi Fengjun was afraid that Ren Zhuliu would come true. He was squeezed by Shi Junyu and turned blue and white. Even Murong couldn't speak in front of the queen, let alone herself?Just as he was about to comfort him with kind words, Murong Rou seemed to care little and just asked:
Have you seen the Empress today?
Chi Fengjun was stunned.Xiaguan went to Qifeng Pavilion early in the morning and met the Empress in Jin.I was afraid that I would disturb the Empress from eating and washing, so I didn't dare to stay for too long. I asked her to leave immediately.Why did the general ask this question?Murong Rou smiled faintly: It's nothing.It is circulating in the public that the Empress is not at peace recently. She wants to ask Lord Chi to see how the Empress looks and whether she needs to find another good doctor in Yuepu.
Chi Fengjun thought for a while and said with a smile: General, please be lenient.Although the lower officials did not see the Empress's appearance with their own eyes, they were full of energy when they heard the words, and the maid's tone was quite energetic, which was really not a symptom.The folk whispers are unfounded, so don’t take them to your heart.
(That means I haven't seen anyone anymore.)
Murong Rou nodded and smiled, no longer saying anything.
Chi Fengjun arranged General Zhendong and his party in the fifth stairs of the right high platform. When Murong entered the venue, he led everyone to bow down and kneel in front of the lotus platform, and gave a great gift to the queen of Fengtai in the central area. It was not until the tribute of the general sitting flat on the stands came from the stands that he stood up, but he saw the lotus gauze floating on the top of the platform, but the queen still could not see it.
Soon, a noise came into the mountains, but Dugu Tianwei and Liangzi arrived together.Oh my God!Isn’t this the Lord Murong, General Tang Zhendong?Although Dugu Tianwei was the emperor's uncle, he still kneeled down and bowed according to the routine. When he looked up, he climbed up to the platform with his big belly and laughed loudly:
It turns out that the soldiers in the East China Sea are dead, and the general only takes... Let's take a look, one, two, three... These kittens are so cold that I can't count them, and I'll get cold as soon as I count them!Hey, where is my Geng Dianwei?Could you tell me to kill me?injustice!This is really unfair!A promising young man died so hard!He ran to the stands, put his big belly on the guardrail, and whined at the central stand:
The emperor... hiccup... Empress!I... I want to seek justice!What a pity!Everyone in Liucinema showed embarrassment, and there was no trace of Hengshuying.Murong Rou knew that she was called to stay in Fengtan, and expected to climb Fengtai with her, so she disappeared.
Dugu Tianwei made a big fuss, as if there was no one around, Liang Zitong quickly called his followers to help him down, smiled at Murong Rou and said: The Marquis has drunk high early in the morning, so don’t blame him.Murong Rou glanced at him and said indifferently: It seems that Lord Cheng Yin has devoted himself to the reception of Zhaoxin Hou.
Liang Zi and Jinshi were admitted to the imperial examination. His skills in writing and writing are not inferior to General Zhendong, who was born as a swordsman. Don’t you know what he meant, and he shot the word "death" that was only after death?He helped the black veil to tidy up his python robe and said calmly: Xiaguan left the city today and occasionally saw a croaker in the cow's hoof print next to the road. I wonder if the general would see him?
The four words "Cowhound" refer to the coming of death.It is circulated in the market: The son of Liuli was secretly ordered, and the day he arrived in the East China Sea was the time when the general's mansion changed his lord; at that time, the general must be headless, or the 100,000 elite soldiers changed their flags, which was still in the uncertain sky.
The folk whispers are not trustworthy, but Liang Zi is both the confidant of the Secretariat. Since taking over Yuepu, the five leading river and port towns in the world have not touched Murong Rou's mouth. Liang Zitong directly sent people to Pingwang. General Zhendong had to change his ways and scrape off the five masters.This was said by Liang Zitong, and his intimidation was even more explicit. Today, it was Lord Zhongshu's younger brother Ren Zhuliu. If the person who heard it was not brave enough, he would be afraid that he would have changed his expression.
Murong Rou smiled and said happily: Where is Lin Jie in the East China Sea?I didn't pay much attention.Lord Chengyin is good at practicing Buddhism. He must have submitted a report to the court, wanting to break the embankment of the Sanjiang River in Yangtu to divert water to save the fish?Liang Zitong heard the meaning of Yuanshui in his words that Jinhuo could not save him. Thinking of the general of Zhendong's harsh methods and difficulty in his normal feelings, he kept silent and sneered.
After the high-ranking officials present gave a big gift to the central government, they sat down one by one, and suddenly heard a long horn sound, mixed with the sound of gongs and cymbals, rich in exotic style.
Outside the mountain gate, the concierge chanted loudly: General Zhennan - Arrive!Nanling Sangha - Arrive!A soft sedan chair with silver and pearls and jewels was raised from afar. Under the brocade tent covered with agate jade, it seemed like a little man was sitting.When they got closer, everyone discovered that the person on the sedan chair was not small at all. He was born with a very fat body, with a wide waist of three or two adult men, with black skin, a cloth scarf wrapped around his toes and a curly boot, and his clothes were full of Nanling flavor, even the habit of using spices; when the sedan chair arrived, a strong burnt sandalwood incense was sent to the wind.
The reason why he looks small is that the sedan chair is amazingly large, which requires sixteen people to carry together, is even bigger than a double-horse carriage.The sedan chair stopped in front of the lotus platform, and the fat man on the sedan chair rolled to the ground with a six or seven-year-old boy, bowing his head:
Minister--General Pu Bao, General of Zhennan, bow to the Empress!The Empress is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old!
On the high platform, Ren Zhuliu, the General of the Left Jinwu Guard, was wearing a third-grade purple robe, wearing a goldfish bag, with official boots, and a flying phoenix sword on his waist. He seemed to have listened to the order of the Queen in the gauze tent and said loudly: Chengzhi: General Pu Bao, the general of Zhennan, came from afar, and worked hard to travel, and was calm!He has profound internal skills and his voice is sent from afar. Even though there are thousands of people in the field, it is still clearly visible.
Thank you!Pubao took the boy and climbed up the platform panting.Murong Rou lowered her eyes and snorted coldly: Going to Nanling to guard the inn, she turned into a fanzi.Chen Suyun was curious and asked in a low voice: Is that the general Pu Bao of Zhennan?That...is his child?
Murong Rou frowned slightly and shook her head for a moment.He is not the kind of person who can carry his children with him.
After a moment, Pubao finally climbed to the top of the five-story platform, and followed him rushing up one by one, squeezing the terrace. There were more than a hundred people at random, and the show was not big.
Dugu Tianwei shouted: It’s not that he was hereditary princes and royal family members were awarded titles, and he could bring thirty followers. He was just a general in Zhennan. How could he bring a troupe to the opera?Pu Bao was proud, with his fingers as thick as a drumstick, curled his lips and said with a smile: This time, this general brought the monks and envoys from the fifteen countries of Nanling. There were more than ten royal families in the feudal states alone. I asked them to divide my fifteen followers by one.There is no way, fat people are afraid of heat and are prone to panting, and they don’t have enough manpower and can’t even carry a sedan chair.
Dugu Tianwei couldn't help laughing.His grandma's!It turned out to be a scene of buying people.It's such a shameful thing. You do it and you still have the face to say it.
Pu Bao finally sat down, and glanced through Dugu Tianwei, and smiled from afar: General Murong!I haven't seen you for a long time. I heard that you have had a headache for refugees recently!I think that you and I are a colleague, if you need this general to help you, you might as well speak out.God has the virtue of loving life. If the people are driven to death, it may hurt the imperial court's education. It is not beautiful.
Murong Rou smiled calmly and said: The emperor is wise and the world is ruled. What is the general’s referring to? I don’t understand what the town says, so I would like to ask the general to give me some advice.Pu Bao laughed and said: I don’t know, I only heard from people when I arrived in Donghai.So there isn't it?It's good if there is no, it's good if there is no.
Dugu Tianwei heard that the two of them were squeaking the fire from a distance, and even spitting on his head, he felt uncomfortable. He coughed twice and found a loophole: Fatty Pu, you have been in Nanling for so many years, but you only created such a son?He doesn't look like you, so what kind of eyes are there for him?He was a fat man in the eyes of others. He suddenly didn't look fat at all when he sat next to Pu Bao. He quickly whispered Fat Man Pu and refused to waste any of it.
Chen Suyun heard his vulgar words and laughed at the child, which was very disgusted. After a closer look, he realized that he was right, and it was really not a good thing.
The child had red lips and white teeth, and his eyebrows and eyes were very beautiful. Although he was only six or seven years old, his expression was quite mature. He saw that there were so many officials and great momentum at the scene, and he did not show any fear. There was a bright red mark in the center of his frowning brow, like a sword mark, but it was born naturally, very special.
The boy's clothes were clean and his hair was combed neatly, but the fabric was not expensive fabrics such as silk and satin. If he were the son of General Zhennan, this would never be the case.Pu Bao smiled, touched the child's head, and said happily: "Your Majesty has nothing to do. Last year, this child stopped the sedan chair and shouted for justice before the General Zhennan Mansion, saying that his father taught people to kill him, and asked the general to avenge him."Everyone was surprised.
Dugu Tianwei said in surprise: I can’t see Ah, Fatty Pu.When did you become so conscientious and make you feel guilty for others?If you don’t make up for the last sentence, you will most likely kill his father.There is always a villain in the story, right?
Pu Bao was not angry either and shook his hand with a smile.This time it's not me!I asked the child: Who... killed your father?He claimed the man's name, and the general was so scared that he almost pissed his pants. It turned out to be a big trouble that he couldn't afford.
It should be noted that Nanling has many vassal states, and the situation is complicated. It has been done for thousands of years and has not been subject to the substantive rule of the imperial power of the Central Tu.Since the Jin Pi Dynasty was defeated in Qingqiu Kingdom, the collapse of the six armies and the death of the emperor, the entire Nanling area, which has extremely wide land and a lot of customs, has only the interest in becoming the nominal sect leader country.By the time of Emperor Taizong, he had a great ambition to be accused of meddling in the East Continent, worked hard to govern the country, withdrew the vassals in the inner world, frequently put pressure on the Korean clans in the West Mountain, and also used troops to the Beiguan and Nanling.
Unfortunately, the martial arts of Taizong Dynasty were not good, so Beiguan finally relied on the Infant City built by Rancang Qun to avoid the mistakes of the Bichan Dynasty; the countries of Nanling fought against each other and fought endlessly, but they had the same attitude towards fighting against foreign enemies. The White Horse Dynasty fought a few small battles after several unpainful battles. Emperor Taizong finally realized that Nanling was not a land that could be conquered, and hurriedly accepted the loss of the countries, and returned with the exhausted army.
It was not until a person appeared that all this suddenly changed dramatically.His name is Duan Sizong.
This Nanlingjie Town, who was originally a county magistrate of Kunyang, a small county in the south, and later became a general of strategist, made full use of his extraordinary talents and, with a strong pen, successfully intervened in the complex situation of the feudal state and exerted sufficient influence: using troops to suppress rebellions, mediate disputes, support the king, and divide the old alliance... Since then, the sovereignty of the White Horse Dynasty has penetrated into Nanling, and is no longer just a false article.After Duan Sizong was recalled to Pingwang, which was like a frustrated death in house arrest, General Zhennan still maintained the tradition he left behind and had no military power. It was said that it was the establishment of a mansion, but it was actually more like an embassy.
Even so, General Zhennan is a chief official and a first-rank official. His name alone can scare the current general to the point of being so scattered. Who is he?
As soon as Pu Bao said, even Murong Rou couldn't help but look sideways and keep a secret.General Zhennan, who was covered in jewels, remained calm and calm, and said: That man is very capable and has a high status. He is comparable to the kings and princes in Nanling. I can't beat him even if I can't catch a few kings and send troops to surround him to death. He just regrets that he speaks too much and is really slapping himself.
Your idea is really despicable.Dugu Tianwei leaned his head and sneered.
What kind of despicable is this?And even more despicable!Pubao shook his head.Before his father duel with that man, he actually signed a life-and-death case. If he unfortunately loses, he will ask the man to take care of his son.damn it!This is a good thing, it’s a foregone conclusion that I want to kill innocent people by killing them indiscriminately, there’s no chance!
...Do you mean he is mean, or are you mean?Dugu Tianwei couldn't even hear it, and he couldn't figure out the master and servant at once.Pu Bao was about to be proud of his sarcasm, but he sneered: Fortunately, God has eyes, and this general thought of a solution, which solved this problem in just a few seconds.
What method?
I asked the child to pick up a stone and throw it to me.
Dugu Tianwei couldn't help laughing.Although I really want to say that I threw it well, Shu Ben Hou was dull and I really couldn't see what a good idea was to throw a stone of you. It would be unkind to use this to deceive the child.
Throwing the general of Zhennan with stones is to assassinate, and assassinating the general of Zhennan is a death sentence!Pubao laughed:
For criminal case review, there is no need to wait for the autumn decision. You can be beheaded and abandoned in the market immediately. There is no amnesty!Since that man signed a life-and-death case, how could he ignore the responsibility of entrusting his orphans?I had to ask me to give up my hand and let this child go. No matter what I say, I don’t have to go against chivalrous principles and do anything.
I said to my child: I can't kill him, and I guess there are not many people in the world who can do it.However, there are many things in the world that are sadder than death. Let’s teach him that life is worse than death, which can be considered as avenging your father.He reached out to caress the boy's hair.The boy looked sideways and avoided him, his little face is unstable, and he doesn't know what he is thinking.
He spoke proudly, but the scene was silent.After a moment Dugu Tianwei shook his head and sneered: I will teach you how to come up with such a sinister way. This naive person is really eyeless.Pubao is so happy that he obviously regards this as praise.Suddenly, I heard a crisp voice and said: What is this child’s name?But it is Shen Suyun.
Everyone was attracted by her beautiful voice and turned their heads one after another.Pu Bao is very handsome and has long heard that the wife of General Zhendong looks beautiful and beautiful, and is known as the number one beauty in Sanchuan. She is not at all abrupt, and she is happy to talk to her: His surname is Qian, and as for her name... Hello, what is your name?This general is busy with all kinds of things and cannot remember the trivial matters.The boy pursed his lips tightly and his face was gloomy, so he ignored him.
Chen Suyun Pity lost his father at a young age, but unfortunately hit Pubao's hand and was used as a tool to control others. If it were someone else, he might use his husband's power to rescue the child, but Pubao and Murong Rou belong to the four towns in the world, and there is no official title, so this method may not be feasible.Even though she had no knowledge of the officialdom, she also saw that Pu Bao was not kind to her husband, so she had to give up the idea, take off the gold wire bracelet on her wrist and hand it over to the young woman in red beside her:
Mrs. Geng, I want to give the child some gadgets to serve as a meeting gift.I'm sorry for you.
yes.
The young woman stood up gracefully, everyone's eyes lit up, and then she regretted: Such a beautiful beauty with snow-skinned skin and beauty didn't pay attention to it just now!Although the wife of the General Zhendong is elegant and pretty, her body is slender, not as delicate and erect as a young woman, plump and charming.This is a natural beauty Ah!
The young woman moved her lotus steps and walked straight to the seat of General Zhennan. Everyone was separated from each other and gave way to the road. They all breathed their eyes, and their breathing gradually became thicker and thicker, and the sound of swallowing saliva was heard from time to time. The scene was obviously very funny, but no one laughed.
She came to the boy, squatted down on the side of her skirt, her plump snow-stitched curves tightened the smooth satin skirt, put the golden silk bracelet on his small wrist, and smiled softly: This is the gift given to you by the general's wife, please keep it in your favor.The boy smelled her warm and fragrant breath, his little face blushed like a soft persimmon, and said shyly: I don't want it.This is worn by the girl's home, I'm not a girl.
The young woman smiled and pinched the golden wire a little smaller to prevent it from falling off his wrist.This is the general's kindness. If you reject other people's kindness, they will be sad.You don’t want the general’s wife to be sad, right?The boy glanced at Chen Suyun, and saw that she was beautiful and gentle, and her care was beyond words. Suddenly, a feeling of inexplicable sorrow suddenly appeared in his chest. He gritted his teeth and nodded silently.
Since this is the case, you can accept it and keep it safe.The young woman tidied up his clothes, tied his straps, and smiled and said: You are so good.What is the name of it? Is it good to tell my sister?I will tell you to your wife, and she will definitely be very happy.
My name is Wujiu.
This gorgeous and graceful young woman in red is naturally Fu Chijin.Chen Suyun loved her company, and did not forget to walk with her on such an important occasion as the Three Vehicles Theory. Murong Rou couldn't bear to go against her wife, so she agreed.Fu Chijin was not alone. Xianzi changed into men's clothes as usual, dressed up as a guard in the clouds, mixed with twenty entourages and went up the mountain to protect the general in close proximity - Zig Zhao's arrangement.
Fu Chijin stroked the boy's white and tender cheeks, squinted her eyes and said, "Wujiu is such a good boy."Yes, what's your enemy's name?Wujiu had not answered yet, Pu Bao, who had always stared at her chest with lust, looked slightly dark, and laughed: Is this what the general’s wife is asking?It looks like a smile, but there is no smile in my eyes.
Fu Chijin was furious and hurriedly lowered her head and stood up and said: The little woman doesn't understand the rules, so she asked casually when she was curious.General, don't be upset.Murong Rou sang: Mrs. Geng, please come back.The idle affairs of Nanling Road have nothing to do with Tokai Road, so it doesn’t matter to our town. It doesn’t matter who it is.Pu Bao laughed dryly and stopped talking.
Suddenly there was a commotion outside the mountain gate, and the concierge officer praised: Princess Fuxiang in Guzhu Country, Nanling - Arrive!A group of strong men wearing gold strands and gold knives on their waists entered the venue with a tall girl.Nanling is rich in gold and silver, but the custom is still decorated with silver. Most of the gold is exported to the north in exchange for luxury goods such as satin and porcelain. Pubao guards Nanling, and even the soft sedan chairs are decorated with silver foil to integrate into the local people's sentiments.
This team decorated with gold is particularly eye-catching when walking on the front of the Nanling Envoys Group. However, it is very eye-catching to the girl's special hair color. No one has to admit that only the dazzling flame-like real gold can match the flame-like red hair!In contrast, the color of silver is too soft to resist the dazzling and blazing red hair!
This person is... Chen Suyun has never seen such a hair color before, and she can't help but open her beautiful eyes.She was born in the family of wealthy people and had a wide range of knowledge. She had seen a businessman from Xishan Mao people several times since she was a child. Their hair and beards all had a black copper red color. Even under the sun, they were not like the golden red with flames.This is definitely not a characteristic of the Mao people.
The king of Guzhu died early and was regent from the central government.This Princess Fuxiang is the only daughter of the predecessor. It is said that she is good at riding and shooting, is quite knowledgeable and well-known, and is loved by the people. She has a high voice for ascension to the throne and regaining the throne.Murong Rou explained casually.
The Princess Fuxiang is indeed worthy of her reputation. Her snowy muscles are whiter than the best creamy ivory. Chen Suyun has never seen them in her life, and she never even thought that there would be such a white and dazzling skin color. In addition, her nose is tall and straight, her facial features are deep, and her body is no less than the Golden Wire Guard who is accompanying her. She is really beautiful and heroic. She can't help but feel heartbroken and said with longing:
The people in Nanling are so special that they can actually have a queen.If I were born as a citizen of Guzhu Kingdom, I would also like to have such a queen!
Not that easy.Murong Rou said calmly: Yiyang and Guzhu have been intermarried for several generations. The two families have similar bloodlines, and the problem of orthodox throne has gradually emerged.Princess Fuxiang may be the lord of Guzhu or the Queen of Yiyang. It’s up to see who found such a token first.
Chen Suyun said in surprise: Token?
Well, if Yiyang finds it first, you can ask the Guzhu Kingdom to fulfill the engagement and marry Princess Fuxiang to Yiyang; such a remnant vein may not have been close to the sons of the Lord of Yiyang Kingdom and the Princess. In the future, will the Guzhu Kingdom be the treasure of the Lord of Yiyang Kingdom?On the contrary, if the token is held in the hands of Guzhu Kingdom, Princess Fuxiang will not only not have to marry, but will also be able to ascend the throne smoothly. No matter who she recruits as a prince, the bloodline of her son will be stronger than that of the Yiyang, so the country and the ancestral temple will be safe.
Chen Suyun was quick-thinking. After thinking a little, he immediately understood the key points and sighed: Are there so many plans to get married and marry a man?Touching the heartstrings, I dare not look at my husband's expression in the corner of my eyes; I forced a smile and quickly change the topic.I really hope that the token ended up in the hands of the princess, otherwise it would be better if I could never find it.
It is hard to find if you lose the war.Princess Fuxiang still refuses to urge her to get married on this ground.
What kind of token is that?
It's a treasure knife.Murong Judo: The name of the sword is called Divine Art.
Fu Chijin was shocked when she heard this. Geng Zhao suddenly broke up with the things she said to her. The red-haired girl in Ai Lang's mouth and the image of the Fu Xiang Princess with red hair, snow-skinned skin and golden jade belt in front of her suddenly overlapped, and it was no longer clear.
--It's her!
(It turns out that she is Princess Fuxiang from Guzhu Country, Nanling!)
◇ ◇ ◇
Geng Zhao and his group of six left the courtyard and fled.
Miss Ayan has no martial arts skills and is supported by Han Xuese, but his internal strength is almost gone. Even though his legs are long and wide, it is not as good as using light sprints. Feng Huang's internal organs are new, and one arm is hooked against Geng Zhao, half-drag and half-run, and the situation is also very bad.In contrast, Nie and Mu Ershao were beaten to vomit blood by Geng Zhao because of carelessness. After all, the injuries were mild, and Mu Yunse could help Fu Fenghuang, and Nie Yuse was responsible for cutting off the back.
Geng Zhao's goal is the garrison at the north gate of Yuepu.
There were more than 500 city gate guards stationed there. Even if they were unable to defeat the man in black, there were thirty cavalry of the patrol camp waiting to respond outside the north gate. This was an arrangement to prevent the conflict between Feng Huang and the Qigong Gate, or to run away if either party robbed Bi Lingxiao. At this time, it was actually useful.The brothers in the inspection camp came from the elite iron cavalry army of Gucheng camp. They were no different from ordinary soldiers and yamen runners. They charged forward with one tithing and one brigade. Even Geng Zhao himself was not sure of retreating; he was in good command and should subdue the strange men in black.
According to the current footprint, it takes at least one quarter of an hour to reach the North Gate on foot, which makes Geng Zhao unable to get up anyway.
Although the restrictions in his veins were forcibly broken through by the man in black, the already unstable internal breathing that was like a boiling water frying pan is even more surging and difficult to control now.Geng Zhao was running, and from time to time, he felt blood in his sight, his chest was stuffy and swelling, and the buzzing noise in his skull was endless, as if something was about to break out of his body in the next moment. It was not easy to just maintain sanitation.
But he can't fall now.
As the only one of the six who is still known as complete in combat, he must stand up at the worst moment-
But he never expected it to come so quickly.
not good!Nie Yuse, the last team, glanced back and suddenly staggered and almost fell. Mu Yunse quickly helped her and frowned and said: What's wrong, second senior brother?Nie Yuse wiped the blood from the corners of her mouth and said coldly: Damn, the formation is broken... This guy is so awesome!Suddenly, he came back to his senses and pushed his junior brother quickly, gritting his teeth and pulling out his legs: Let's go... go quickly!He is here...quick, quick, quick!
The rapid sound burst out from a calm person, which made me feel very frightened.The six people ran forward along a white wall, but it seemed that there was no end. Geng Zhao's heart was filled with a hint of horror. Before he could turn around, Nie and Mu fell silently, and then half of his body sank, and Feng Huang stopped moving; he had not even thought of holding Zangfeng, and the person who came had already faced him and took advantage of the opportunity to sweep forward!
The palm strength is lighter than expected.Perhaps it was because of the rushing internal force in his body... his thoughts were not stopped, and the thunderous pain passed through Geng Zhao's left half of his body, as if he was penetrated by several sharp steel nails as thick as a little finger at the same time. The pain made his eyes turn white. He still maintained the posture of his right palm connecting with the enemy, and his left knee fell to the ground with force.
The target of the man in black attack was never his right palm.
Geng Zhao seemed to have even deprived of the ability to see the object in his left eye, and the images reflected in his right eye were at all. Han Xuese fell to the ground and the figure of the man in black were flat, almost unable to tell the distance. Only Miss Ayan's pale face was getting bigger and bigger and bigger... Until a ball of warm and soft fragrance hit her arms, he could instinctively turn back her arms and barely catch the beauty.
Han Xuese once again played her decisive and decisive decision-making that was easy to be an ordinary person. At the moment of attack, she pushed her lover to the last person on the scene who might have the chance to protect her, and the green silk on her waist.The judgment of this opportunity was even beyond the expectations of the man in black. He was successful and there was no gap.
Good guy.The man in black kicked the Lord of the Qi Palace who was resting on the ground and walked towards Geng Zhao who was supporting him by the wall.Geng Zhao's left half of his body had turned from severe pain to paralysis, but it was not helpful to defend against the enemy at all. His only moveable right arm was wrapped around Miss Ayan, trying to cover her with his body, and moved backwards while dragging his insensitive left leg.
Despair stuck to him like a shadow, and a dark piece pulled out from under his feet and slowly sank down.
what you do?
The voice coming from behind was full of sharp voice. He was a boy who had just grown an Adam's apple and had a voice change at the beginning.
The man in black stopped.Of course it was not because of the boy, but the man in a rogue costume and a big cloak behind him.Although he had never met, he recognized who this person was at a glance and was evaluating whether being an enemy of him would be the biggest mistake in this trip.
…Save people.
The ronin answered the boy, while untiing the lace of the giant thing behind him, clang!With a sound, it was sunk in front of you, and the bottom was three inches, which showed its sank.The ronin didn't seem to feel heavy at all. His palms overlapped, leaning on the giant figure that looked like a huge slat, as high as the junction of the chest and diaphragm, and a calm smile was sucked in his soft and thick beard.
--This person is good at fighting, and there are even more rumors.
(Tough!)
The man in black silently listed a reason not to fight, but the young man didn't know that he was calculating and asked Ronin: How do you know who is the good person and who is the bad person?
To be a chivalrous and righteous person, one must have enough wisdom.When the situation is urgent and cannot distinguish right from wrong, first save the weak and make them unharmed, and then judge justice.The man smiled and said: But there is no wisdom at this moment. Those who cover their faces in the daytime and attack women are definitely not good things.You stand by, it won’t take a long time.The knot was pulled apart, and the coarse cloth slid down with a squeak.
The huge object that was long enough to the chest and wide enough to the waist was not a big sword, but a sword.The hilt of the sword that is more than three feet thicker than the mouth of the cup, the thigh of the sword is like a bell and chime, larger than one hand shield, with horn-like oblique lengths of the hand guards on both sides, and the end length is more than half of the hilt. From a distance, it looks like the word "Tian" in the form of Li.
The hollowed-out sword sheath is also very simple, with copper nails the size of longan-eye, like an ancient bell and tripod.The sword body, thicker than the adult thigh, was inserted into the sheath, the frosty and cold steel color reflected the copper color, and the two slanted hand guards like Wu hooks and halberd branches on the hilt were like a long and inverted character. Geng Zhao suddenly remembered someone.
--Like the sky and the tripod, the sword exceeds a thousand pounds!
(If it were him... he would be saved!)
