Chu Xianzhao lay on Ying Liyang's lap and listened to the song and slowly fell asleep, until when he woke up the next day, Ying Liyang was no longer by his side.

He was covered with a wide blanket, rubbed his eyes and stretched his waist, and suddenly heard a dog barking in the distance, and saw Shen Taisui who got up early to walk the dog, and the man in black named Qinggong followed Shen Taisui as always, like a loyal dog that never left his master's side.

Shen Taisui saw Chu Xianzhao in the pavilion, threw the dog leash into Guo Qinggong's hand, rubbed his palms and greeted with a smile: "Does Your Highness think that the room I arranged for you is uncomfortable?"

Chu Xianzhao hurriedly waved his hand and said: "No, no, no, the room you arranged for me is very comfortable, but I was a little bored last night and wanted to come out for a walk, and I fell asleep while sitting here in the pavilion, and I bothered the adults." ”

"Why don't you take this pick-me-up?"

Shen Taisui took out a snuffbox from his robe and threw it over, and Chu Xianzhao caught the gadget carved from ivory jade.

Snuff bottles are common in the northern regions and are very popular in the southern continent, celebrities and ladies like to carry a snuff bottle on their bodies, snuff is even more popular in all social strata of the southern continent, the pot is mixed with powder and extremely fine tobacco according to the proportion of medicinal herbs, after smoking, you can avoid the epidemic, and the main role is to refresh your mind.

Chu Xianzhao had seen a palace maid use it a few times in the palace, and he didn't pay attention to the object that he thought it would only be used by women, but later he learned that this thing would be addictive.

Shen Taisui will always be as happy as Maitreya Buddha, and said patiently: "Your Highness, don't think this cigarette is not easy to smoke, this snuff is very popular in our side, when I used to be an official in the imperial court and read official documents all night, in order to refresh myself, I can smoke a small half pot, and smoke a few puffs before going to bed with a woman, so as to ensure that you can be ten women at night!"

Chu Xianzhao couldn't refuse Shen Taisui's kindness, unscrewed the lid and took a sip gently, and was immediately choked by the powder inside, and sneezed several times in a row.

Shen Taisui sat down cordially, patted him on the back and said: "Officialdom is like a place of execution, when I was an official in the imperial court, I saw a lot of scenes of officials exchanging snuff, there were people with bad intentions who poisoned the snuff sent, and the other party hiccuped while smoking, and he didn't even know how to die, and finally this official position was naturally moved, let others climb the stairs, be careful to sail the boat for ten thousand years, there are all kinds of people in the depth of the rivers and lakes, some truths may not be taught to you in the palace, everything is careful and prudent." ”

Chu Xianzhao looked at Shen Taisui in amazement, Shen Taisui was immediately happy, patted him on the shoulder and said: "I won't harm you, I still think that you have the opportunity to sit in Zhao Wentian's position, you can absolutely believe me, and I also believe that you are the "Lord of Weather" in the revelation."

"Thank you...... Thank. Chu Xuanzhao couldn't help it

Speaking out, it can be regarded as a heartfelt statement.

Shen Taisui nodded, and smiled to play with taste: "Don't be angry with Huayu yesterday morning when she spoke disrespectfully to you, Your Highness, the daughters raised in the nobles of the Gaomen are a little petty, and they don't expect them to want to be heroes like His Royal Highness, if they don't give us these elders to stab Louzi, we are already happy, parents hope that their children can be happy for a lifetime, whether they are successful or not is already a cloud in their hearts, everything is just fate." ”

"Lord Shen's golden words made Instant Zhao admire, I really hope that my father can also listen to you. ”

Shen Taisui laughed and said: "His Majesty Emperor Yin is a hero, even if ten Shen Taisui are carried in front of him, it is not enough for him to take a look." ”

Shen Taisui beckoned the maids to come and wash and dress Chu Xianzhao, and had breakfast with Chu Zhao.

Chu Xianzhao took a sip of hot porridge full of shrimp and shellfish, and Shen Taisui looked at him while eating wontons, and said, "Was your hair white from birth?" Or did you dye it white on purpose?"

"It's only recently turned white. ”

"But your eyes are purple. ”

"My mother gave it to me, and she was the princess of the steppe. ”

"Looks like you've inherited your mother's appearance...... If you want to go out, you still have to bring a rooting dough, you have to take some precautions, do you want to dye your hair back? ”

"As we all know, Yinguo Shizi's hair is black, isn't this white hair better disguised?"

"Your eyes can't be disguised, and your existence can't be known to everyone in Guhe City for the time being, only then will you be safe. ”

Shen Taisui chewed the wonton slowly, "After I got that 'revelation', I have been waiting for Her Highness the Holy Maiden and you to arrive, we are surrounded by lakes here, and the war horse can't enter the ancient city for half a step, even if the people of the Zhao royal family know about your existence, it is an extremely bad thing." ”

"Understood. ”

Shen Taisui suddenly asked: "Why do you refuse to marry the princess of the Bottle Kingdom, you don't love her, or do you fall in love with another woman?"

"The people of Taru forced her to marry me, and my father asked me to marry her, which is not a problem. But he sent an army of several thousand men to assassinate Liyang at my wedding banquet, can you tolerate your family killing people at your wedding banquet?"

Shen Taisui said with interest: "Do you kill people at the wedding banquet? It is really in the style of His Majesty Emperor Yin, I heard that his throne was obtained by killing his brother, what kind of things he did before this, and what kind of things he did after this, I think Your Highness, you know better than me." ”

Chu Xianzhao took the bun handed by Shen Taisui and said calmly: "Those who can't be trusted can't be trusted after all, and those who are trusted will be in pain, this is the truth I got from this matter."

, When Chu Xiaohua ascended the throne and became the queen, he killed many unarmed but unworthy people, and specially selected civil officials to kill, just to kill chickens and monkeys, but the people didn't know, and the kings allied with him all died, the wolf king Liu Kang, the great monarch of the Golden Horde Handa Garsu, the Shuyue Empress Tai Ningsu, and the three emperors died. Maybe all this was expected by him, he was just pretending to be confused, Chu Xiaohua was the most terrible enemy, anyone who was a friend or enemy with him was now seen by everyone in the world. ”

"I disobeyed my father's wishes this time and left the Yin Kingdom, to a certain extent, it was a move to the whole body, disrupting his next plans, I don't know if there is really such a thing as fate in the world, I am now surrounded by enemies and nowhere to go, Lord Shen, you are now trapped in Guhe City, and you want to get rid of the embarrassing predicament of advancing and retreating now. If Liyang and I want to have a bright future in the land of Nanlu, we need you, the governor of Guhecheng, who is rich and rival the country and has a lot of prestige in the Daqing court, without your help, when will Daqin be able to raise the banner? Courage is all I need, and I don't want me to be remembered by the Yin State as a loser. ”

Shen Taisui shook his head and said: "Your Highness has the means and determination to get out of the quagmire, it was just a shortcoming of time before, from what he said now, Shen Sanqian is even more sure of His Highness's determination and fruitfulness, after all, a person like His Royal Highness will fight his way out of the troubled times and become a real king of the troubled times." ”

"Chu Xiaohua will not allow the existence of the King of the Troubled Times. ”

Chu Xianzhao put down the spoon in his hand and said word by word: "He knows that I am not dead, he is not so easy to forget, and the people of the Yin Kingdom are not so easy to forget, they will also remember the flying dragon that appeared on the concubine close, and now there are more than three thousand in this land." ”

"If the dragon dies, it won't be scary. ”

"Yes, dead things are not to be feared at all, and even the idea of being spit on does not exist. ”

After Chu Xianzhao finished saying this, he saw Shen Huayu walking up the stairs into the pavilion, and his scalp suddenly went numb, and he couldn't wait to turn around and leave.

Shen Huayu, who likes to be unforgiving the most, clasped her arms with her hands, and said in amazement: "Yo, who is this bereaved dog who is as white as snow and guards his body like jade, he has only been on an equal footing with my father within a few days of coming to my house, and if you stay in the Shen family for a while, won't Miss Ben have to call you a master?"

Chu instantly recalled the events of last night, and his expression gradually became complicated and dark.

Guhecheng has an open atmosphere, but Shen Huayu is not the kind of slutty woman who can be a wife, she just keeps the promise she made, and Chu Xianzhao is really handsome and powerful, which makes her a little excited, and the Oiran mother who is overwhelmed by her beauty, Shen Huayu likes to dance and play with swords since she was a child, and on her twelfth birthday, she pestered her father to ask for a sword, and Shen Taisui finally couldn't pestering her daughter to get her a long sword stained with human blood, which is said to be the former owner of the sword

It is a murderous female devil, and this sword is called "Green Silk" by her side all the time.

The Daqing Dynasty has always had an iron law, where women are not allowed to wear swords on the street, until Qing'an Longxian broke this iron law, resulting in a gradual increase in the scene of women wearing swords on the street, and they are all proud of wearing red swords, anyway, as long as they don't hurt people, most people will not go to the government to report these women, and in Luoyang City, the woman who dares to wear a red sword to go out, which one is not a person with a strong family background, when the time comes, I went around a big circle and found that it was sued on the head of the old man, which is a joke.

Shen Huayu didn't want to be taken home by her father's beautiful appearance like her mother, so she had her current status, she swore to her sisters that her man would definitely let her find it by herself, and would never let others choose her, and that person would definitely be a person with a strong sword in martial arts, at least she had to have the level of the nine generals of the Dragon King to see it.

Until she met the white-haired young man sitting in front of her, Chu Xianzhao, a dragon slayer who was born in Concubine Pass, but he didn't appreciate his love at all, which made her look in the mirror and depressed all night.

After listening to his daughter's words, Shen Taisui opened his mouth to reprimand for the first time: "Shen Huayu, are you heartless or heartless? ”

Shen Huayu shrunk her shoulders, this time her expression was still not half afraid, and she pouted: "Dad, you are so good to him, don't you want this bald ghost to be your righteous son? ”

Shen Taisui was angry and said sternly: "What kind of white-headed ghost, you still want to recognize others as brothers, and you don't look at your own virtues? In addition to seducing men and being ** by men, what have you and your sisters done that are beneficial to the Shen family? Now let your father go back to Yang City, don't force me to throw you out with my own hands!"

Shen Huayu saw her father so angry with her for the first time, and felt that she was not so aggrieved by Chu Xianzhao's rejection last night, and suddenly burst into tears, biting the back of her hand and crying: "You just dislike your mother's mother, they can't give you a son to alienate them, the reason why my sisters are like this today is because of you, since you like him so much, let him be your son, even if I Shen Huayu goes out to beg for food in the future, I won't ask you for a tael of silver if I die at the door of Shen's house!" Even if this bald ghost casts a good baby and becomes the son of the world, he will still be a mourning dog! The people of the entire Daqing Dynasty want him to die, how long can you shelter him?"

In the face of such an unreasonable daughter, Shen Sanqian's face suddenly turned like ashes, gritting his teeth but he was helpless, he couldn't wait to dig a hole in front of Chu Xianzhao, and he wanted to try to match his daughter with Chu Xianzhao, and then he didn't know how to say anything good for Shen Huayu in front of Chu Xianzhao.

Shen Huayu was still crying, but Chu Xuan was looking forward to this family farce

His expression was calm, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and he said to Shen Taisui: "Lord Shen, I want to go to Guhe City for a walk, can you let Miss Shen accompany me." ”

Shen Huayu's cry suddenly stopped, and he looked at Chu Xianzhao in disbelief who didn't regard himself as an enemy.

This sentence made Shen Taisui's anger drop a lot, and he waved lightly to the unobtrusive daughter, motioned for her to change her clothes, and said with a smile on Chu Xianzhao's face: "The little girl's temperament is really bad and unspeakable, and I hope that His Royal Highness Haihan." ”

Chu Xianzhao shook his head and said, "Lord Shen can give Xuanzhao a place to live, and Xuanzhao is already grateful, so how can he be angry with Miss Shen." ”

Shen Taisui swore and said: "If Your Highness takes a fancy to something, even if you let Huayu help Your Highness buy it, it can be regarded as letting her break the memory of the financial minister." ”

After a while, Shen Taisui said to Shen Huayu who wiped her tears with a straight face: "Don't mention the three words of mourning dog in the future! If you let your father hear it, you will break your legs, take people out for a walk, don't have a dead face on the road, people haven't offended you and don't owe you money, who would dare to marry you with your virtue? If you have the ability, don't come back at night, why did Lao Tzu give birth to such an unconscious daughter as you?"

Shen Huayu listened to her father's words, twitched her delicate nose, her face was red, and she lowered her head to play with the corners of her clothes.

Shen Huayu is lively and doesn't like female popularity, but she is very good at swordsmanship, and often takes the "willow eyebrow" to ride in the sunset city, Shen Taisui is also quite proud of this little daughter's heroine, Chu Xianzhao can't see that this girl has any powerful moves, besides, the most powerful female swordsman of the same age he has seen is Guan Ju, the sword is so fast that he can take off and slash the dragon, if he doesn't use Wang Xi in swordsmanship, he will definitely not be able to compare with Guan Ju, let alone feel that there is a female swordsman who can enter his eyes.

In order to avoid people's eyes, Chu Xianzhao put on that rooted face, but at this time, Shen Huayu changed into a green robe and breeches, and still brought the "green silk" that must be brought to the street, which seemed to be much more heroic, and there was no moving charm.

Chu Xianzhao, who had a face on his face, looked plain, and standing with Shen Huayu was like a servant following his own lady to the street, ordinary.

Chu Xianzhao originally wanted to call Ying Liyang as well, but Ying Liyang said that he had something to discuss with Shen Taisui and did not follow.

Chu Xianzhao thought of separating from her, and he hesitated for a moment when he was unfamiliar with the place here, looking at Chu Xianzhao's iron-pimpled face now, as if he had changed someone, she had the courage to pull Chu Xianzhao's sleeve and rushed out of the Shen family's mansion with him.

The popularity of Guhe City is also extremely prosperous, the men, women and children encountered along the way are all freshly clothed angry horses and sables Qiu brocade clothes, people with swords and swords are not common, the Jianghu gas is covered by the copper smell in such a mall, the real green shirt and sword people are extremely rare, most of them are fierce and vicious businessmen entourage, short and cunning merchants squint their eyes and look at the comings and goings

The guests, when they saw Shen Huayu and Chu Xianzhao, they only shouted a few times.

A young woman like Shen Huayu who dares to go to the street alone with a sword, seems to be a bully, maybe she can have both wealth and sex, but in fact, in such a social environment where men are superior to women and women are inferior, any woman who dares to go out on the street alone and casually should not provoke them casually, this is a painful lesson learned by countless predecessors in the rivers and lakes.

The forces behind them are definitely not something you can bear, and no one with a little brain will do anything to them, let alone these cunning businessmen,

Chu Xianzhao can also be regarded as being touched by Shen Huayu's light, but with a face on his face, he looks mediocre, thinking about how to talk to Shen Huayu, and asks in a soft tone as much as possible: "Miss Shen, I think-"

Shen Huayu was no longer as angry and impatient as before, and said softly: "What Miss Shen, you can just call me Huayu, otherwise my father will think that our relationship is very raw, just buy whatever you like, Miss Ben will pay for you!"

Chu Xianzhao began to feel his scalp tingle again, and Shen Huayu suddenly began to coquettishly say: "I won't call you a mourning dog in the future, it can be regarded as an apology to you, one person does things and one person does, don't treat me as an outsider, anyway, you also scolded me last night, we are even, but I think we are quite compatible, what do you think?"

Chu Xianzhao listened to her nonsense, Shen Huayu's slender and white hand grabbed his arm, and looked at Chu Xianzhao in the clouds and fog charmingly, like a pair of gangsters in the rivers and lakes, his face was sweet and greasy to make Chu Xianzhao cold, Chu Zhaozhao didn't care about any politeness now, slowly pulled his arm out of her arms, and said righteously: "Miss Shen...... Please respect yourself, so many people are watching. ”

Shen Huayu didn't let go, her eyes were resentful, and she wanted to cry: "What if there are many people, there was no one last night, don't you ...... too"

Chu Xianzhao was a little angry, and said bluntly: "You really can't change the dog eating, I shouldn't have said just now that you should come shopping with me, and let your father break your dog's legs!"
