According to the crow, Princess Huanting didn't even know where the seal was hidden, and naturally she wouldn't know where the dragon scales were, and the little emperor didn't know anything. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The Empress Dowager is dead, and the traces of the dragon scales are a mystery. They pinned their hopes on Gao Wenyu, who secretly supported the Empress Dowager, and guessed that she might know where the dragon scales were hiding.

After the Spring Festival, rumors that dragon scales were hidden in Chen Di, or that dragon scales had appeared in Chen Di, would spread throughout the entire territory of Great Xia with the robbery and killing of people in the rivers and lakes.

At that time, Princess Huanting only needs to expose the Empress Dowager's health or death, and the other princes will definitely link the two together. Gao Wenyu's loyalty to Bactria would be questioned by the princes, and in order to protect himself, he would certainly not be the first of the four tyrants to declare himself emperor.

As soon as Qingshanjun left Chen Di as an envoy, news of dragon scales came out along the Chunjiang River, if the two have nothing to do with each other...... I'm afraid that no one will believe this.

Who is Yao Xitong, when he heard the news, he naturally helped Xuanze, so that more people from the rivers and lakes could mix into the dragon scale snatching team, and help spread the slogan "Those who get dragon scales win the world".

Once this slogan is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, King Chun only needs to get the dragon scales to ascend to the throne, which is much more convenient than the plan to win over the four tyrants.

Where are the dragon scales?

The only person in the world who knows where it is is is the Empress Dowager, a very intelligent woman who hung dragon scales around Xiao Bao'er's neck as a gift on the day she chose a son-in-law.

She knew Xiao Bao'er's personality, and since she said that dragon scales were beast teeth, this girl would not be suspicious at all. It is said that the most dangerous place is often the safest place, and the dragon scale, which symbolizes the imperial power of Great Xia, must wait until the little emperor can truly shoulder the heavy responsibility of the country, and she will gather the princes of the Quartet to admit that the Son of Heaven is indeed the orthodox royal family before the Xiao Clan's temple.

It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven, although the Empress Dowager's idea is good, but she was betrayed by her own daughter, and the whereabouts of the dragon scales have become a mystery.

Princess Wan Ting rummaged through the palace and couldn't find where the dragon scales were.

When Yao Xitong came up with the idea of "the one who gets the dragon scales wins the world", he never expected that the princess who had nothing to do next to him would still have a dragon scale.

It is said that fools have foolish blessings, troubled times are coming, beacons are raging, can Xiao Baoer get the world?

Dragon scales are a sensitive topic, Yao Xitong's goal has been achieved, and it is natural to stop at the point, and doing more entanglement will make Gao Han suspicious.

Ma Jun is a bit bookish, and it is rare to hear about topics related to the royal family, not only does he not avoid it, but he wonders why Yao Xitong knows so many things. After a while, he suddenly pointed at Yao Xitong and said, "I know, you are the Tanhualang who made the princess of Beiliao willing to give up her honorable status." ”

Yao Xitong really felt sad for his hindsight, but said modestly, "It's down." ”

"That'...... ...... day"

Ma Jun wanted to say more, but Zhu Zhigao interjected: "On the day I first saw him, I felt that Brother Yao had an outstanding temperament, and today I know Brother Yao's identity, which is really Zhu's luck." ”

After that, he pulled Ma Jun to kneel in front of Gao Han, and said loudly: "Lord Shizi, Tanhualang has a life-saving grace for us. Today, the prince Hongfu asked me to wait to see my benefactor again, and asked the two of us to bow down. ”

Gao Han laughed "haha", "Get up!" It was through you that I learned of such horrific things that had happened in the waters of the Spring River. I will report this to the truth, and see if my father can come up with a charter to deal with the bandits who are wandering in the waters of the Spring River. ”

"Thank you, Lord Shizi......" Another beautiful word came out of Zhu Zhigao's mouth.

Seeing that Gao Han was in a good mood, he wanted to stay a little longer, but Ma Jun, who was neglected, pulled him to take the opportunity to leave. The message said that he hoped that Yao Xitong could give them a chance to thank them before taking office.

Out of the Shizi Mansion, Zhu Zhigao asked Ma Jun very puzzled, why didn't he take this opportunity to stay in the Shizi Mansion for a while if he wanted to become Gao Han's staff so much?

Ma Jun bowed deeply to Zhu Zhigao and thanked him for interrupting his remarks about wanting to confront Yao Xitong. When the three of them met at first glance, and were warmly entertained by Gao Han, he was almost deceived by Yao Xitong and Gao Han's seemingly cordial attitude. It wasn't until Zhu Zhigao interrupted that he suddenly remembered some old things.

Gao Han and Tanhualang are far from being as close as they seem.

Tanhualang is a concubine, and his identity is more noble than that of the prince, but this is Chendi, and the princess Tanhualang married is actually the princess of Northern Liao. Before the two countries negotiated peace, Chen Di and Northern Liao were old enemies, and one of Gao Han's uncles died at the hands of Northern Liao barbarians in the war between the two countries.

Why does Tanhualang rarely mention the women around him when he talks about Chunjiang? Because he knew that Gao Han didn't like the Northern Liao people, it was inconvenient for him to talk about his relationship with the princess no matter whether it was good or bad.

As soon as Ma Jun said this, Zhu Zhigao finally understood why they had to leave early.

"Thank you Brother Ma for your order, if it weren't for Brother Ma to stop me, wouldn't I have made a big mistake today, and I almost offended Tanhualang and the prince."

Ma Jun smiled bitterly ashamedly, he has always looked down on businessmen, but in terms of human sophistication, Zhu Zhigao is proficient and has no stage fright at all. He was stunned when he knew Yao Xitong's identity, but fortunately Zhu Zhigao helped him not make a fool of himself in front of the two nobles.

"Brother Zhu is polite, you and I are classmates, and we should help each other."

"Brother Ma, what are these words, if I didn't know you, and I was fortunate enough to be introduced by your friends, an identity like me would not have been able to step into the gate of the Shizi Mansion at all."

Zhu Zhigao is very good at talking, and his sincere words make Ma Jun very comfortable to listen to, and he can't help but ask Zhu Zhigao: "What do you think of the prince?" Is it worth my run? ”

"Lord Chen advocates force, but Lord Shi likes literature, and in this regard, Lord Chen's status in Lord Chen's heart is not as good as his brother Gao Mian."

"I know that, and that's why I feel like it's an opportunity."

Zhu Zhigao nodded yes, "Great Xia has followed the primogeniture inheritance system since ancient times, this is the case for Liang Di, this is true for Song Di, and this is also true for Qi Di, and Chen Di should not be an exception. ”

Ma Jun was very happy to be recognized by Zhu Zhigao, but asked a little uneasily: "You say, will Tanhualang have a prejudice against me because I released that kidnapper privately?" ”

His concerns made Zhu Zhigao not know how to answer for a while.

According to him, on that day in the cabin, the abductor saw that he was alone, and at first pleaded bitterly, but found him unmoved. The abductor threatened that the baby she had abducted had reached the time to take the antidote, and that if she was not untied, the baby would die of an overdose......

In a word, his kindness led to the kidnapper escaping, and if he was asked to choose again, he would still choose kindness.

If what Ma Jun said was true, Zhu Zhigao didn't think he was wrong.

As for what Yao Xitong would think, Zhu Zhigao didn't dare to figure it out. He couldn't see through Yao Xitong, and always felt that this person was both good and evil, and he couldn't define this person by the good or bad of the world. But one thing is certain, Yao Xitong will never stop Ma Jun from defecting to the world.

"Brother Zhu, do you think this is good? When my friend returns, we invite Tanhualang to have a small gathering, one to thank him, and the other to explore the wind, if he goes to Zhongling County as an official, I will definitely help him at the prince's place, which is to thank him for saving his life. ”

Zhu Zhigao smiled reluctantly, and his intuition told him that Yao Xitong would never succumb to the position of county commander, let alone need the help of him or Ma Jun.

He said: "Try it, I don't think Tanhualang is a narrow-minded person, so he shouldn't embarrass us." ”

Soon after Zhu Ma and the two said goodbye, Yao Xitong also proposed to leave, and Gao Han hypocritically politely said that the handover of Zhongling County would be discussed another day.

Xiao Bao'er came out and scolded Gao Han for being a bastard, if Chen Di was handed over to him to inherit, Northern Liao could break it without much effort.

Yao Xitong didn't speak, but when he went out, he looked at the officials who were waiting in the corridor before, and saw that they were being invited to Gao Han's place one after another, and couldn't help but smile slightly.

"Why don't you speak, you can't see the official like that stupid roe deer?"

The stupid roe deer in Xiao Baoer's mouth must have pointed to Ma Jun, although he hid it well, but after learning Yao Xitong's identity, the shock and crampedness on his face couldn't be concealed.

Yao Xitong still didn't speak, and it wasn't until the two of them were far away from Shizi's Mansion that he said slowly: "The roe deer is not stupid, he buried his head in the snow when he was chased and killed, thinking that the hunter couldn't see it." It's not because I'm stupid, but because I'm physically exhausted, I can't run. ”

Xiao Bao'er pursed her lips in dissatisfaction, "I heard that hunters can easily 'pick' roe deer in the forest. ”

"That's not because the roe deer is stupid, you said that this happens when the snow covers the mountains. Roe deer cannot find food, and their size is not well adapted to deep snow, so it will not be long before they will be caught in trouble and 'picked up' by hunters. ”

"As for me, Xiaoxiao, the biggest official in the world is the emperor, I once entered the palace to face the saint, and married the pearl of the king of Northern Liao, do you say I have ever seen a big official?"

"I didn't speak before, because I had something to be sure." Yao Xitong didn't say what he was sure of, but asked: "If you were going to meet someone and know that person likes to make people wait, how would you dress in such a cold climate?" ”

Xiao Baoer looked at Yao Xitong with her eyes, with an expression of "Do you think someone will make me wait" on her face.

Yao Xitong patted his head, "I retracted my previous statement and only said what I saw today." Those waiting officials only wore regular clothes, and did not deliberately bring warm coats and hand warmers, which showed that they did not know that Gao Han would make them wait for so long. ”

In other words, they used to do things very quickly in the world's mansion, and they had never encountered such a bitter situation. When I left, I deliberately took a look at the corridor, the steward had already led the officials to the back to do business, it was time for dinner, Gao Han was really a bastard, he should have eaten and then slowly handled official business. ”

"Gao Han is sick, why do you want to play such a play?"

Yao Xitong smiled, it's good to be like Xiao Bao'er. He said: "Fiction is real, reality is fiction." ”

"Gao Han gave us a trick that is actually false, if it is changed to the art of war, he deliberately makes an empty appearance or shows some flaws in the case of his own strong troops, luring us to attack, he wants to use this posture to paralyze us, so as to be fooled."

"You Central Plains people are so bored! You see everything, what's the use of him doing this? ”

"Xiaoxiao, not everyone is as smart as me. If it were you, wouldn't you be fooled today? ”

"It doesn't matter, I don't like him anyway."

"Xiaoxiao, as a superior person, it is not right to put all your joys, sorrows, and thoughts on your face like you. Like now, you smell the smell of the shop on the street and want to eat there, right? ”

Xiao Bao'er nodded happily like a chicken pecking rice, and asked casually: "If I don't put my emotions on my face, what should I do?" ”

"I casually walked past the restaurant, suddenly thought about the meal, and asked casually: Do you want to go in to eat?" Yao Xitong demonstrated while walking, and the two quickly sat down in the restaurant.

Xiao Bao'er picked up the teacup and laughed secretly, her purpose was to eat, no matter what method was used, the goal was achieved, Yao Xitong went where she wanted to go.

"Hey, why are the dishes so expensive?"

"Childe, don't put your emotions on your face."

"yes!"

Yao Xitong calmly began to order, always feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it. The place was chosen by him, Xiao Baoer followed him in, everything is not wrong!

The little guy asked, "What do you want to eat?" ”

Xiao Bao'er was about to speak, but Yao Xitong continued: "No need to answer, what kind of vegetarian dishes do you have here?" ”

Xiao Bao'er said to herself pitifully: I want to eat meat, any meat can be, I don't pick my mouth.

The next day, Yao Xitong died again to discuss official business, Xiao Baoer stayed in the room and didn't leave, Yao Xitong had no choice but to tell her to go alone. As soon as he walked with his front foot, Gao Mian knocked on the door with his back foot.

Xiao Baoer was not very surprised by Gao Mian's visit.

Many things have a beginning, and they naturally need a result, and Gao Mian can't give her a bottle of good medicine for no reason.

"I've seen the princess."

is a very ordinary sentence, but Xiao Baoer thinks that Gao Mian can get along, and she likes this kind of straightforward opening statement. Knowing that she is a princess, why do you deliberately pretend not to know like Gao Han.

"The second son has something, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

"It's cold, does the princess want to go with me for a few laps outside the city?"

Xiao Bao'er's eyes lit up, since she came to Great Xia, she hadn't ridden a horse happily for a long time. was about to agree, but Yao Xitong's sentence sounded like a spell in his head: Xiaoxiao, can you be a little reserved.

Seeing her hesitation, Gao Mian continued: "It's a wild horse, it was caught by my people in the horse herd this autumn, and it has a very strong temperament, I can't do anything about it, I want to ask the princess for help." ”

"There are no good players in the army?"

"I am a horse lover, the methods in the army will hurt him, I heard that the horse taming in Northern Liao is different from the Central Plains, I want to ......"

Without waiting for Gao Mian to finish speaking, Xiao Baoer said: "I'll go with you, I also love horses!" ”

The wild horse in Gao Mian's mouth is very beautiful, the whole body is black without a single miscellaneous hair, and the beautiful fur looks like silk from a distance.

Xiao Bao'er understands horses, and she knows that this horse is not very old, and she must be looking for a mare to mix in the war horse herd.

She walked around the wild horses a lot, and as she went, she said, "You stupid, you look so beautiful and you use it to mingle with the herd of war horses for courtship?" Shouldn't you stand far away and wait for the mare to come by herself? Now that you've been caught, and you don't want to give in, if you hadn't met me, your life would have been difficult......"
