Outside Liangzhou City, two men each rode a horse to the east, the young man in blue and blue clothes was Helan Chengdu, and the other middle-aged man in red and black clothes was Xu Huacheng.

The two decided to cross the Longguan Road from Xiliang, first arrive at Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty, then take the river from the river to Dongzhou, and finally go south to Jiangnan according to the Dongzhou Grand Canal.

Xiliang to Chang'an two hundred miles is called Longguan, but also the only way from Xiliang to Chang'an, is a place for soldiers to fight, Xifan has been looking forward to pulling out the barrier of Xiliang for decades, from Longguan straight into, stepping on Chang'an, drinking horse Zhongzhou.

Helan Chengdu and the two went all the way to the east, and gradually became prosperous along the way, from the desolate road to the bustling city.

Uncle Xu, this Middle Earth style is really different from Xiliang, the people along the way are bustling, so lively, the young man said to Xu Huacheng.

The middle-aged man smiled slightly: "Chengdu, you grew up in Xiliang, and Xiliang is a frontier, and the prosperity of people is naturally not as good as that of Middle Earth, I think you haven't seen it, it's not surprising." ”

"Uncle Xu, I heard that you are also from the mainland of Middle-earth, and I have never heard you talk about whether there is a family in Middle-earth, and how you got to Xiliang to join the army," the young man asked curiously.

Xu Huacheng said slowly after a moment: "The family and country are in danger, a good man should stand up to serve the country, make meritorious contributions, and get used to the battlefield, so he will never be able to return to a comfortable life." ”

The young man wanted to ask again, but as soon as the words came to his mouth, he stopped, only to see the middle-aged man "driving", speeding up, as if he didn't want to mention the past too much, and the young man followed closely.

In the courtyard of the east wall of Helan Zhuguo Mansion in Liangzhou, a handsome young man easily crossed out of the high mansion wall, and the handsome young man patted the dust on his clothes a little, and quipped: "Hmph, if you don't let me go, then I'll go by myself." ”

This handsome young man turned out to be Helan Yanran, thinking that Lao Zhuguo had already set up a ban at the gate in order to prevent his granddaughter from running away without permission, and the eldest lady was not allowed to go out. So this Helan Yanran locked herself in the boudoir and didn't see anyone, and Helan Mufeng knew that she was losing her temper, so she let her go. By the time everyone relaxed their vigilance, this Helan Yanran had already secretly changed into men's clothes and ran away over the wall.

The handsome young man ran all the way east, and I don't know when she prepared her horse, got on her fast horse, and headed east.

In the Zhuguo Mansion, the old general shouted outside his granddaughter's room: "Yan'er, grandpa is also for your good, this time to the east, the road is long, the boat and car are tiring, the stakes are very high, the fewer people the better, so you don't want to go, Yan'er, you have to understand grandpa's good intentions!"

Seeing that there was no response in the room, the old man frowned and exclaimed, "Not good!"

Forcibly pushed open the door, only to see that there was no one in the room, only a letter on the table, the old man said helplessly: "Stinky girl, alas, grow up, I'm afraid I can't keep it." ”

It is said that Helan Chengdu and the two of them went all the way non-stop, and finally came to the imperial capital Chang'an City, the young man just arrived in Chang'an City, the whole person was stupid, Chang'an City deserves to be Chang'an City, no wonder the Western Fan Kingdom also dreamed of invading Middle-earth, the young man now understands that if he is the king of Xifan, he will also have such thoughts.

The boy estimated that this Chang'an City must be as big as ten Liangzhou Cities, or even larger, and the boy knew that Chang'an was prosperous since he was a child, but when he saw it today, he really felt that his name was worthy. I saw that the streets of the city were crowded with people, there were many shops of goods, everything was available, people were all dressed in silk and satin, and the trade market was not lively. The young man thought that Liangzhou City was the best in Xiliang, but when he arrived in Chang'an City, he realized that he was originally a hillbilly entering the city!

Touring this Chang'an City, the last two came to an inn, at the request of the young man, Xu Huacheng reluctantly agreed to stay in Chang'an City for one more day; if it is an ordinary person, it is no problem to stay in Chang'an City for a long time, but this is the grandson of Xiliang, the successor of the Helan family, if there is no will of the imperial court, leave Xiliang without authorization and come to the imperial capital, if it is discovered by those ministers who are hostile to Xiliang in the court, I am afraid that they will have to join the Helan family, and then no matter what, it will not be good for the court to take the opportunity to embarrass it. Thinking of this, Xu Huacheng was really a little difficult in his heart, but Xu Huacheng also knew in his heart that Helan Chengdu had never been out of Xiliang since he was a child, and it was understandable to be lingering in Chang'an City today, so he also acquiesced to the young man and stayed with him for one more day.

There is a forest in the west of Chang'an City, and a young man in a red and yellow roof is playing leisurely with a paper fan, followed by two men.

"Your Highness, let's go back, if we let ......"

The young man didn't wait for the white-haired and clean-faced man to finish speaking, and said: "It's hard to come out, look at this scenery, if it weren't for a trip, I really don't know how to have such a beautiful scenery, stay in it all day, it's so boring, don't be long-winded and disturb the interest, okay." ”

The man who spoke just now said: "It's not that the old slave is talkative, it's just that the outside is not safer than the palace, if you meet someone with ulterior motives who knows that His Highness is going out and wants to murder His Highness, I'm afraid that the old slave doesn't know how to explain!"

The young man said, "Don't worry, don't you protect me, I don't have to worry." ”

The man showed a smile, he still knew his strength, his strength was already a holy realm, although he didn't dare to say what happened in this world, looking at Chang'an City, the people who could match it were the top people in those families, but it was just a few people.

The clean-faced man said again: "Your Highness, if you really encounter some trouble, the old slave will try his best to protect His Highness, but I am not afraid of 10,000 just in case, if the opponent is prepared, and it is a master of the Holy Realm and the Breaking Realm, the old slave does not dare to guarantee that it will be foolproof, so we will go back to avoid trouble." ”

The young man said impatiently: "Didn't you say that there are very few such masters in this world, how can there be so many masters, but I will meet them, besides, even if I do, I don't necessarily know who I am, but I am hostile to me, don't say it again, I will definitely rush back before dark, there will be absolutely nothing wrong." ”

The man still wanted to speak, but the young man had already walked to the front, and the man had no choice but to follow quickly.

This young man turned out to be the crown prince of the current Tang Kingdom, named Li Wu, sixteen or seventeen years old, and the only son of the current Tang Emperor. Growing up in the palace since childhood, the only time I went out of the palace was to send my little uncle who was two years older than himself to Jiuhua to practice a year ago, and that time it was only sent to the gate of Chang'an.

This time I went out, and I also heard his little uncle in Jiuhua say interesting things about Jiuhua's practice in the letter, so he wanted to sneak out of the palace, he wanted to go to Jiuhua, but after coming out, he found that Jiuhua was too far away, and if he came out for too long, he would definitely let his father know, and then he would inevitably be punished. Thinking of this, let's take a picnic outside this Chang'an City, play and play, although it is not possible to go to Jiuhua, but it is also better than staying in the palace all day free and happy, and then sneaking back before dark, it will not be noticed.

The three young men walked all the way, and suddenly a fast horse burst out of the forest in the west and drove towards the three of them. I heard the man immediately shout, "Get out of the way, get out of the way." ”

Seeing this, the clean-faced man immediately jumped up, and he didn't know where he got such a great strength, but he resisted the approaching horse, and the horse was forcibly stopped by this sudden and powerful external force, and fell to the ground in fright, and the man on the horse also fell heavily to the ground.

The person who fell on the ground looked handsome, it turned out to be Helan Yanran, the granddaughter of King Xiliang, at this time she was still a woman dressed as a man, Helan Yanran covered her sore buttocks and got up and scolded: "Which one is not long-eyed, dare to stop this son's horse, causing me to fall to the bottom." ”

The clean-faced man took a defensive pose and asked, "Who are you and what do you want to do?"

Helan Yanran saw that the person who came was violent, and she was not to be outdone: "What's the matter, you blocked my way, scared my horse, and caused me to fall to the ground, you are still reasonable, right?" ”

As soon as the man was about to speak, the young man walked out from behind the man and said, "This brother, it's all because I can't wait for you, and I'm in the way. ”

The man was a little annoyed, and just wanted to speak, but was stopped by the young man. Helan Yanran saw that the young man was quite polite, so she said: "I see that you are knowledgeable, unlike that ladylike reckless man, so I won't care about you." ”

The man just wanted to scold after hearing this, but the young man stopped again, and the man didn't want to care when he saw that the person who came didn't look like a master. Seeing that Helan Yanran was about to leave, the young man hurriedly said, "You haven't dared to ask your brother's surname, where are you going?"

"Congratulations...... Eh, just tell me to see He Feng," Helan Yanran almost missed.

"He Feng, Brother He, I see you in the dust, it's not early, I want to go to Chang'an City to rest, it just so happens that you and I are on the same road, why don't you be together?" The young man seemed to be pleading, and Li Wu saw that he had a good impression, so he wanted to invite her to join him.

The clean-faced man on the side hurriedly grabbed the young man and said, "Your Highness, it's better to be careful, this person's origin is unknown......

The young man interrupted and whispered: "I see that he doesn't look like a bad person, you are too worried, besides, isn't there you." ”

Helan Yanran saw that the man seemed to be hostile to herself, but she deliberately said, "Okay, I'm worried about having no companion." ”

"Good. By the way, my name is Huangwu, and I am sixteen this year," the young man said with a grin.

Helan Yanran said: "Okay, I see you are also pleasing to the eye, so I will call you Xiao Wuzi in the future!"

The man said angrily: "Bold, how can this be." ”

The young man hurriedly said: "Brother He is happy, don't talk more." Hurriedly said to the man, the clean-faced man seemed to have lost his temper, yes, he didn't dare to say more.

Helan Yanran saw that the man was very obedient to the young man, and hurriedly made a grimace at the man, and the man was so angry that his face turned blue.

The group walked towards Chang'an City, and along the way, the young man took the initiative to introduce Helan Yanran endlessly, and also felt that this He Feng seemed to be different from others, although he felt that he was a man, but he still had more love for him in his heart.

The sunset is slanting westward, the sunset shines on the entire Chang'an City, the Chang'an City at this time is picturesque, in this city, as if in the picture.

The young man and his party came to the city, and the group came to a good inn, opened their rooms, and then went into their rooms to rest. The young man sat in the room, and the clean-faced man pushed the door in and said, "Your Highness, it's getting late, it's time to go back to the palace." ”

The young man said after a moment: "Time flies so fast, I still want to spend more time with Brother He." ”

The man said: "Your Highness, don't blame the old slave for talking too much, this person's origin is unknown, or it is better to get close, if it is an enemy, the old slave will ...... tonight" The man made a gesture to wipe his neck.

The young man shouted: "Bold Ma Yuan." ”

Frightened, the man surnamed Ma hurriedly said, "The old slave should die." ”

"Don't say anything in my ear in the future that is not good for Brother He," the young man said.

Ma Yuan said: "The old slave knows. I wanted to speak, but I swallowed it back.

Helan Yanran felt bored in the room and wanted to go to the emperor and ask him to go out to visit the Chang'an night market. It turned out that Helan Chengdu and Xu Huacheng also happened to stay at this inn, and they played in Chang'an for a day today, and just returned to the inn, preparing to leave tomorrow.

Helan Yanran stepped forward and hugged Helan Chengdu, Helan Chengdu was suddenly hugged, I didn't know for a while, I turned around busily, and saw that it was a handsome young man, and I was about to ask the reason.

Helan Yanran pulled her hair away and said, "It's me, brother." ”

Helan Chengdu looked dazed and said, "Why are you here?" ”

Helan Yanran said playfully: "Who told grandpa to be eccentric, if you don't let me come, I will sneak out, or the eldest brother is smart, just guess." Helan Yanran pointed to his brother's head.

Helan Chengdu was helpless, and pulled his sister into the room to ask about the reason, and it happened that this scene was seen by Li Wu, a young man who had just gone out and hid aside, at this time, a smile appeared on the corner of the young man's mouth unconsciously, and he said to himself: "I see." ”

In the room, Helan Yanran explained what she had encountered along the way, and Helan Chengdu said: "This emperor and martial prince, where is it now, take me to meet him, and thank others." ”

Helan Yanran said: "Brother is not angry. ”

Chengdu said: "It's all here, it's hard for me to abandon you and go." ”

The brother and sister came to the door of the Huangwu room, and Yanran knocked on the door and said, "Xiao Wuzi, open the door!"

I didn't see anyone open the door for a long time, and at this time, the second little man in the store came and said: "Two guest officers, this guest officer has just had an urgent matter, I think it's too late to inform the two, this is a letter left by the son just now." ”

After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he handed the envelope to Yan Ran, opened it and took a look, only to see: There is an important matter in the future, it is too late to say goodbye to Brother He, see you in the future, Huang Wuding should apologize to Brother He.

When the brother and sister saw that this was the case, they had no choice but to give up, so they went back to rest and prepared to go south the next day.
