Chapter 1 The North Goes to the Troubled Country

After Chan'er and Yelu's group of chariots and horses entered the country, Chan'er abandoned the cart and got on the horse, and walked forward leisurely. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info sky is high and refreshing, the grassland is vast, the previous time I set foot or when I was young with my mother concubine back to Helian's house to live, how many years later, the scenery is not easy, it is still a beautiful picture in memory.

On June 14, the horse team was marching in the open field, and suddenly saw several people and horses approaching them. As the distance got closer, Yelu had already identified the identity of the person first, turned his head and said to Chan'er:

"Princess, it's only half a day's journey from Tuoba's house in front of you, and Brother Konglin thinks I'm here to greet the princess."

"I promised Brother Tuoba to be a guest at the house. Today, since Brother Lin is here, I can't break my promise, let's go to Tuoba's house to rest. Chan'er said with a light smile.

"Yes." Jerod answered.

While speaking, several people rode their horses, Konglin grabbed the reins, bowed to Chan'er, and the two of them also saluted respectfully behind Konglin.

"I heard that the princess was passing by, and the three Tuoba sisters all wanted to meet the princess." Konglin said with a smile.

"When I saw the Demon Palace in a hurry, Chan'er should have greeted Uncle Tuoba a long time ago." Chan'er nodded and responded.

Kong Lin said hello to Yeluji, Huang Feng, and Tie Yin, and then turned the horse's head, led the way for the group, and said as he went:

"It's just unfortunate that Yabu isn't at home, otherwise he would definitely come to pick you up in person."

"What is Brother Tuoba busy with these days?"

"The loss of horses in the war was heavy, and there were a number of new war horses being domesticated, and Yabu helped the emperor to go to various places to select, and it always took a month or two to complete the errand." Konglin paused for a moment, and then said, "But you will live in Dadu later, and when Yabu enters the palace and returns to the emperor, you will be able to meet each other." ”

"That's right."

In the evening, the group arrived at Tuoba's house and stayed overnight. Chan'er walked into the lobby under the guidance of Konglin, and Tuoba Xian, Tuoba Hua, Tuoba Yue, and Tuoba Xue father and daughter had been waiting for a long time. After greeting each other, they will sit down and share the dinner.

After dinner, it was dark, and he was willing to go home only after pestering Feng Yu Yang to learn to ride and shoot.

"Daddy, I can shoot the bull's-eye! Tomorrow you will teach me, you are not allowed to be ...... Laipi" Kongzhi shouted excitedly all the way, jumped into the lobby, and the moment he saw Chan'er, he said, "There are guests at home, what a beautiful sister." ”

After the empty stop, Feng Yuyang followed and walked in, giving a salute to Tuoba Xian and Chan'er.

"It's not my sister, didn't my father tell you that an aunt is coming." In front of the emptiness, the voice was extremely gentle.

"Chan'er is not only an aunt, but also an aunt." Tuoba Hua continued.

Kongzhi looked at Konglin on the left, Tuoba Hua on the right, and then looked at Chan'er and said:

"It's like Uncle Yuyang is both an uncle and an uncle, isn't it?"

Chan'er smiled, squatted down and grabbed Kongzhi's hand, and said softly:

"Xiao Zhi is so smart. I met your father in my early years, and he watched me grow up, and I had a brother-sister friendship. Your mother is my sister again. So you want to call Aunt Chan'er or Aunt Chan'er, it's okay. ”

Kong Zhi thought for a moment, and said crisply:

"Auntie, I have two, and my aunt doesn't have one yet. I'll call you Aunt Chan'er. ”

"Okay."

When Tuoba Hua heard this, she wrinkled her nose at Konglin, as if she was eating Konglin's vinegar for Chan'er, but Konglin just responded with a doting smile, and the two of them showed their deep affection.

"Is sister-in-law Chan'er from a lonely country? Is the lonely country in the southwest? I heard that you are a princess of a country, why are you not the daughter of the emperor? "What did he think of and what he asked, and in an instant, it was a series of questions.

Chan'er patiently answered one by one, and before the words fell, she seemed to be asking something, and Tuoba Xian hurriedly interrupted and said:

"Okay, it's so late, you eat first. Aunt Chan'er is in a hurry for a day, so she has to rest early and talk to you tomorrow. ”

"Yes, Grandpa." Seeing that Tuoba had spoken, he stopped speaking and sat down at the table obediently.

"Xitao and Xiaorao should settle their luggage, and I'll send you back to the room." Konglin touched Kongzhi's head, looked at Chan'er and said.

"I'm really tired these days, so Chan'er will go back to the room to rest first." After Chan'er said goodbye to Tuoba, she said to Kongzhi, "I'll come to see you tomorrow to learn how to ride and shoot, okay?" ”

"Hmm!" Sora nodded happily.

Chan'er then said goodbye to the three sisters Tuoba Hua, Tuoba Yue, and Tuoba Xue.

Konglin accompanied Chan'er back to the wing, and before leaving, he seemed to have something to say to Chan'er, but he stopped talking. Chan'er had never seen such a hesitant appearance of Konglin, and couldn't help but be curious:

"What does Brother Lin want to say?"

"What do you think, Yabu?" Konglin asked softly.

"Are you asking......"

"The Kaiser intended to choose Jabb as his prince. This news, except for the people of the Tuoba family, no one else knows about it for the time being. ”

"Uncle only has one daughter, Jialu, and there are bound to be many pairs of eyes on the position of prince."

"Exactly. The relationship between the Helian family and the Tuoba family today is closer than when King Helian Fan assisted the former emperor of the Wei Kingdom, and neither the Kaiser nor his father-in-law wants the scene that happened in front of him to be repeated one day. Yabu was the only person the two of them had hoped for. ”

"The burden on Brother's shoulders will be heavy. No wonder when the kingdom was first established, he ran from place to place. ”

"Well, but if you want to convince the tribes and even the tribes in the north, this road is still very difficult."

"Brother Lin, will you and Brother Yuyang support him?"

"My second brother and I promised Emperor Xuan that we would not participate in the internal affairs of the Nanguo Dynasty. If you want to help, you can't do it. ”

"So, if you tell me about this, isn't there anything I can do to help Brother Tuoba? If I can do it, I will do my part. ”

Kong Lin sighed secretly in his heart, where do I want you to help, obviously I want you to be prepared, so as not to sacrifice your own happiness for others. But in fact, Konglin did support Tuoba Yabu's position, and such ambivalence made him unable to express it for a while. After a while, he said:

"There's a shortcut......

"Chan'er hasn't slept yet." At the critical moment, Tuoba Hua appeared, interrupting the conversation between Kong Lin and Chan'er.

"Sister Hua." Chan'er followed the sound and looked.

Kong Lin saw Tuoba Hua coming, and he knew it in his heart, and there was a touch of helplessness between his eyebrows, but he didn't say much.

"I'm worried that you're not used to living there, so I ordered the kitchen to prepare a sweet soup to help you sleep." Tuoba Hua gestured to the soup bowl in her hand, and said with a smile to Chan'er.

"Sister Lao is bothered." Chan'er immediately raised her voice and greeted, "Xi Tao." ”

In the room, Xitao heard Chan'er's call, hurriedly pushed open the door and walked out, and under Chan'er's instructions, took the soup bowl in Tuoba Hua's hand.

"It's getting late, so let's not bother." Kong Lin said at the right time, glanced at Tuoba Hua, and said goodbye to Chan'er.

After Kong Lin and Tuoba Hua left, Chan'er was still looking at the backs of the two outside the door, and Xi Tao asked when she saw this:

"What did Lord Fang say to his wife and princess?"

"Brother Tuoba may be in trouble, and I don't know how I can help him. But Sister Hua doesn't seem to want me to know the inside story. ”

"Since that's the case, the princess might as well wait until she meets Tuoba Gongzi and ask him directly."

"Well, that's all there is to it."

After a while, Kong Lin and Tuoba Hua walked back to the courtyard where they lived, Tuoba Hua stared at Kong Lin and held her hand, and said softly:

"Brother Lin, will you blame me for stopping your reminder to Chan'er?"

"I don't blame you. If I insist, I can't stop you by showing up. ”

"I think Chan'er is the third choice, she is the choice that Yabu wants, but it is the one he will definitely bypass. In fact, no matter what decision Chan'er makes, Yabu and Chan'er are just fated, as a sister, I only hope that Yabu can have a few days of clear and frank memories, not Chan'er deliberately avoided after knowing the inside story. ”

"Yabu and the Zhan Palace Lord are gentlemen's friends, and I cherish his heart for Chan'er. This matter, as an outsider, is not easy to speak. I won't mention it to Chan'er again, don't worry. ”

"Thank you."

"Fool, thank you for what. At this point, I am not partial to the third brother. You care about your brother in the same way that I do. ”

"Third brother, how are they safe in Hengguo? I'm afraid that the people in the Star Altar will not give up the pursuit of the third brother. ”

"As long as you don't enter the territory of the Night Country, the Star Altar will have nothing to do."

"Having said that, it is always a troublesome thing to be persecuted and plotted all year round."

"However, the Star Altar has only been taken under the command of Emperor Liu, and there are other important things to do for Emperor Liu, and the rest of the things cannot be taken into account for a while."

The next day, in the middle of the night, Sima Jiang Yanpei took Qirui to visit Qinci's Youfu.

"It's been a month since Brother You moved into the mansion, so I have time to congratulate him, and I ask Brother You not to be surprised." Jiang Yanpei walked through the front yard with the servants of the mansion and said loudly to You Huan, who was standing in front of the lobby to greet the guests.

"Brother Jiang is busy with everything, and being able to come together today has increased the glory of the house." You Huan upheld the courtesy of the guest of honor, stepped aside from the side, and said.

By You Huan's side, Fu Huan and You Wanqing immediately saluted Jiang Yan Pei and said:

"I've seen Master Jiang."

"Qirui greets the Lord." Qi Rui, who was behind Jiang Yanpei, stepped forward at the same time and saluted You Huan and said, "From the past, I hope that the Lord will forgive." ”

When You Huan heard this, his gaze stayed on Qirui's face for a moment, then he turned to Jiang Yanpei and said:

"I have known Brother Jiang for more than 30 years, but I didn't know that Qi Rui was my brother's daughter, it seems that Brother Jiang's trust in me is really insufficient."

"Back then, the positions were different, what Yan Pei did was not to share worries for the Lord, and there was something offended, so Jinte and the little girl came to make amends. Whether you are Rui'er as an apprentice or not, she has never revealed the kung fu of the Star Altar to the outside world. Please also ask Brother You to see the relationship between us for many years, and don't blame the juniors. ”

"When I say that, I don't think much about it. In the future, if Rui'er wants to come to Fuzhong, it will still be the same as before. ”

"Thank you, Lord for your forgiveness." Qi Rui said with a respectful expression.

"Brother Jiang must still have the holy will to convey. The sun was in full swing, so we moved inside the house to talk in detail. ”

"Okay, Brother You, please."

At the same time, Chan'er and Feng Yuyang were in the paddock of the Tuoba family to watch the Konglin father and son practice riding and shooting.

"Brother Lin and Brother Yuyang's riding skills and archery skills are all one and the same, and Xiao Zhi must be a master in the future." Chan'er praised while watching.

"The princess has won a prize. My eldest brother and I learned a lot from the prince. Feng Yuyang said gratefully.

"It's a pity that I haven't been as proficient in all crafts as my father."

"The talent of a princess is rare among women." Feng Yuyang paused for a while, and then spoke, "Remembering that everything was caused by Yi Guo, I just had something I wanted to tell you. ”

"What's the matter?"

"Do you remember that when Yi Guo and Heng Guo were fighting, the former Yi Guo generals helped the four princes Xiu Yao?"

"Impressive. Even today, they are still in a dilemma with the captain of Hengguo. ”

"The general gang is Chang Yan's daughter Chang Yan as the young master, and I suddenly found out why the general gang has a close relationship with Xiu Yao in the previous month, because Chang Yan has been borrowing the name of the niece of the concubine for many years."

"You mean, Xiuyao's cousin named 'Shang Keer' is actually Chang Yan."

"Not bad. And this 'Shang Ke'er' has worshiped heaven and earth with Liao Chen, the second young master of Orange Flame Villa, and has become the daughter-in-law of the Liao family. ”

"No wonder Liao Chen once helped Xiu Yao assassinate the second prince Xiuyuan, so calculated, their interests have been inherited."

"After the reign of the country, Liao Wei, the owner of Orange Flame Villa, sincerely attached himself, and his father-in-law also took care of Orange Flame Villa. And Liao Chen has never shown up, and it seems that he has followed Xiuyao and Chang Yan to infiltrate the two countries of Gu and Heng. Because of his personal affairs, two masters of Orange Flame Villa were killed, and Liao Wei was also angry and didn't want to talk about this son. ”

"Brother Yuyang, are you worried that this force will still target Prince Gong's Mansion?"

"We have a deep grudge with the General Gang, I believe that Chang Yan will not give up easily, after returning to the palace, there is nothing wrong with the princess being careful."

"I see."

Jiang Yanpei and Qi Rui finished talking about business in You Mansion, and left before noon. Walking out of the gate of Youfu, Jiang Yanpei whispered to Qi Rui and said:

"I know you very well, although he said that it is okay for you to enter and leave the mansion, but you are not accompanied by your father, and you must not set foot here again."

"The daughter understands, thank you for the reminder. It's just that in the future, the correspondence between him and the Star Altar, the righteous father will have to find someone else. ”

"It doesn't matter, I have other candidates. On Qiu'er's side, the more contact he has with 'Liu', it is inevitable that he will lose sight of one or the other, so you might as well help him. Jiang Yanpei seemed to reminisce for a moment, and then said, "When you left the Night Kingdom, you were still young, and you don't have a deep memory of Qiu'er, right?" ”

"I only remember that my brother uses a left-handed scimitar, and he is very talented in knife skills." Qi Rui smiled lightly and said.

"Someone else is in the city, I will inform him of your actions, and when the matter here is handed over, you can set off to join him."

"Yes."
