Lin Wan'er shook her head slightly, continued to walk forward, and walked towards the bright lights, she turned back to Zhao Qian and asked, "By the way, how is Baoyu?" I didn't see this day, and I missed it in a panic. ”

Zhao Qian shook his head, you did good deeds, and deliberately left space for King Xiliang and Baoyu, and I missed Baoyu again for a while: "Baoyu is very good, I was still running around in that vegetable garden at noon, and I had a lot of fun." ”

Hearing this, Lin Wan'er's heart began to think crankily again: "Have fun? He won't forget about me, will he? Children are playful and don't care about anything for the sake of playing. What if we leave for Shangjing and Baoyu doesn't want to go back? ”

Zhao Qian stretched out his hand and touched his brows, feeling speechless, and opened his mouth to comfort: "You can relax, Baoyu is all about you, the eldest sister, and will not ignore you." ”

"That's good, let's hurry up and avoid Baoyu being brainwashed." Lin Wan'er quickened her pace.

The area of Xiliang Wangfu is quite large, half built around the snow-capped mountain, surrounded by a reflecting snow lake, there is a pavilion in the west, there is a stone statue of the princess as high as 100 zhang, and there are pavilions and pavilions located in it, its specifications are high, the scenery is gorgeous and it is difficult to describe it in words.

The snow-capped mountain is constructed in the north and folds in the west, the lake water is murmuring and dissolving, leading out the clear spring, flowing into the palace wall, the flying wall is pecked high, the eaves of the corridor are graceful, the bullfighting is rushed to the north, the south is wiped out and the void is extinguished, the long bridge can lie on the waves, the compound road is also empty, the height is staggered, I don't know the thing, there is a place where the spring light melts, the summer cicada chirps softly, the autumn leaves fall, the winter snow is miserable, within one day, in the palace, you can see the four seasons.

Coupled with the red lanterns that fill the palace, although it is night, it is like day. Walking in the meantime, it is like walking in a fairyland on earth.

Xiliang for the Central Plains. It's very mysterious, and its internal officials are deployed. The distribution of power has always been a mystery, except for the Xiliang King, the Xiliang Five Tigers and the ridiculous His Royal Highness, Xiliang rarely has news flowing into the Central Plains, but the Xiliang Palace, but the Xiliang Palace, which is very famous, and the previous dynasty's "more than 300 miles, isolated from the sky" of the Afang Palace, is also the evidence of the impeachment and criticism of the Xiliang King for "arrogance and lasciviousness" in the three provinces and six departments of the imperial court, especially the stone statue that is as high as 100 zhang has become the target of public criticism, but the court officials know Xu Xiao's feelings for the princess Bai Su. Don't dare to make it too difficult.

can only turn his head to impeach the entire palace, saying that "the king of Xiliang is a high-ranking person, overstepping the rules, prospering the house, arrogant and lascivious, doing everything, and beheading the world." ”

This matter reached the ears of King Xiliang, and according to his previous temperament, it must be "your grandmother's legs" to greet the court. But Xu Xiao had just ordered Xiliang officials not to "scold", and he held back for a long time and said, "I don't want to either." ”

What King Xiliang said is true, the original Xiliang Palace's original planning was not so magnificent and luxurious, but it was built beyond expectations. Not only is Yingxue Lake included, but also the snow mountain has been chiseled, if it weren't for Xu Xiao, he really couldn't stand it. Shout to stop, and the palace will continue to expand uncontrollably.

There is also an interesting story in it. It's not like the imperial court, a natural disaster or a man-made disaster. Refugees are displaced, the household department will always open warehouses to release grain, provide food and clothing, and there is never a "free lunch" in Xiliang.

When the Xu family army first entered Xiliang, the chaos of Xiliang was from the inside to the outside, it was a mess that collapsed on the ground, Xu Jiajun defeated Xihu with lightning speed, and rectified Xiliang in the way of governing the army, and swept away the bandits and bullies, and the means were so severe that they were a little harsh.

Although there are many drawbacks hidden, the three prefectures of Xiliang have also been cleaned up in the shortest possible time, and the chome system has been formulated, and every household must be registered. The next step is to restore farming and silkworms, but people are not as good as heaven, Lingzhou is in drought, there is no grass, and there are groups of refugees, so they flock to the relatively rich Liangzhou.

At this time, it was the season to build the Xiliang Palace, and Xu Xiao ordered that in addition to the women, children, and children who could get a ration of free food, all capable strong men must participate in the construction process of the palace.

Many refugees poured into the palace, and at first there were many people who played tricks, but after being looked at by Sima Qi in the name of inspection, he no longer had the courage.

The industrious people of Xiliang Sanzhou began to devote themselves to the construction of the palace for food, and the specifications became larger and larger, beyond the imagination of many people, and many beautiful scenes were creatively built with limited materials.

Yingxue Lake is one of them, and the ingenious pavilion on the west bank of Yingxue is also one of them.

There are many craftsmen among the refugees in Lingzhou, who carve sculptures with their hands when they have nothing to do, and the carvings are not only similar in shape, but also similar to the gods, quite self-satisfied, and when they rest, they boast that their craftsmanship is second in the world, second only to the Mo family giants who served in the imperial court.

And in this scene, Xu Xiao, who was walking with a knife, saw it, lifted his trouser legs, bent over, squatted, and asked: "How big can this stone statue be?" ”

The craftsman glanced at Xu Xiao, and he speculated from what he heard that the notorious King Xiliang was a fierce and vicious three-zhang man, and although the person in front of him was carrying a knife, his demeanor was extremely vulgar, unlike a person with a prominent status, and he said in a rather proud tone: "The shortest hundred." ”

Xu Xiao nodded, and the stone statue of the princess that was as high as 100 zhang rose from the ground, using granite from Dali in southern Xinjiang, and the cost of transporting it from southern Xinjiang to Xiliang alone made people smack.

However, at that time, the Xu Jiajun seized the Hetao Plain with lightning speed, and relocated Lingzhou refugees on a large scale, not only building the Xueyong Pass out of thin air, but also exerting the land that could be reclaimed and utilized in the Hetao Plain to the extreme.

The most peculiar thing is that when the princess sculpture was completed, it rained heavily in Lingzhou for a long time, and since then, the princess of Xiliang people is a god, saying that the princess has sprinkled a handful of water from the West Lake to Lingzhou.

In the drought season of Lingzhou, many people chose to go west, and stepped out of a Xiliang Avenue that led directly to the Western Regions with their feet, and passed through Wei Song and Fan Heming to lead the west, constantly consolidating this avenue, and gradually expanding the power of Xiliang to the west of the Western Regions, and the countries of the Western Regions also called this road the "Silk Road". (Lan Ying smirked and plagiarized again, history is really so beautiful, she even used "silk" to describe a trade route.) ）

The people of Dawei have the self-confidence and pride of being the most powerful country in the world, and the people of Sanzhou also have their own pride and pride in Xiliang, where the land is barren and known as the poor mountains and bad waters.

Xiliang ushered in its own prosperous era, and Xu Xiao once stood in front of the statue of the princess. After staring at it for a long time, he muttered, "Susu." This prosperous world can probably be as you wish, right? ”

Lin Wan'er walked briskly in the palace. Crossing the long bridge across Yingxue Lake, walking through two rows of green Yingxue promenade, sweating slightly, he reached out to unbutton the two buttons on his shirt, and said in a rather unhappy tone: "I hate it, this palace is too big, and I haven't arrived after walking for so long." Zhao Qian, you can make one or two bicycles, it's also convenient to ride. ”

Zhao Qian snorted. Wan'er really didn't have a sense of worry, she was in Xiliang anyway, and there was still danger, but she actually remembered the bicycle, and said in a somewhat reproachful tone: "Bicycle?!" What kind of bicycle do you want?! ”

"If you don't want to do it, forget it, why are you so excited? Moreover, you don't learn like Uncle Benshan at all. Lin Wan'er rolled her eyes and continued to walk.

Li Mubai was confused, and he didn't understand what this was and who Uncle Benshan was. But in front of Zhao Gan, he didn't want to show his ignorance, so he just frowned and gave up.

There is a hall in Xiliang Palace, the name is very elegant, it is Wenyuan. It is a place to entertain distinguished guests, but few people in Xiliang are qualified to have a meal in Wenyuan, and recently it is the only time to have a big feast in Wenyuan. It was still when the Five Tigers of Xiliang defeated the Xihu army.

But today, in order to welcome Lin Wan'er, the banquet was not only set up in Wenyuan. And the people of the whole palace were waiting outside the Wenyuan to greet them.

Zhao Qian told Lin Wan'er about the grandeur of the banquet on the way, and also said that the banquet had been prepared for a long time. All of them are to welcome Lin Wan'er, the minister of the five grades of the imperial court, and Lin Dacai.

"Zhao Gan, you hate it," Lin Wan'er is a person who loves vanity, as soon as she heard this, her mouth grinned at the back of her head, and the wind was blowing under her feet, and her speed was a little faster.

When she arrived at Wenyuan, Lin Wan'er's mouth opened into a big O-shape, which could swallow two eggs and stuff another cherry, making her feel more and more face-saving.

When King Xiliang saw Lin Wan'er, a faint smile appeared on his face, very warm and warm.

The little maids around were surprised in their hearts, the prince had a hearty personality, his mood was revealed on his face, and he showed joy and sorrow on weekdays, but only this smile was rare, only in the sunny weather, when he looked at the statue of the princess, it was revealed. I don't know what kind of magic this Lin Wan'er has, which makes the prince so happy.

Baoyu had already changed into a late autumn warm shirt, put on a hat, and put on a pair of small boots trimmed with gold wire, ran in front of Lin Wan'er in the wind, plunged into the arms of the eldest sister, and shouted crisply: "Eldest sister." ”

Lin Wan'er touched Baoyu's head, lowered her voice and asked, "Baoyu, the eldest sister asks you, will the eldest sister go back to Beijing tomorrow and leave you in Xiliang?" ”

She wants to test Baoyu, if Baoyu says yes, or has a reluctant expression on her face, she will immediately "tie" Baoyu to her side at all times, like a witch, and carry out all-round three-dimensional brainwashing work - Baoyu, Baoyu, follow the eldest sister to eat, in Xiliang only for the sake of freezing and starvation, you can be happy where there is the eldest sister.

Zhao Qian sighed in his heart, and tried his eyes at Baoyu, Baoyu was so clever, the expression on his face did not change, and he immediately replied: "It's not good, I want to follow the eldest sister back to Shangjing, I'm bored here." ”

Huanxi climbed into her brows, Lin Wan'er couldn't help but pick up Baoyu's face and kissed her fiercely: "It's really my good Baoyu." ”

Xu Xiao stood on the steps with a smile on his face, and there were four people standing beside him, they were the four tigers of the famous Xiliang Five Tigers in Xiliang, the first on the right hand was the tiger bear Wei Song, the second was the tiger girl Gao Cuilan, the first on the left hand was the tiger deer Fan Heming, and the second was the tiger wolf Yang Tingxiong.

And the fox snake Sima Qi in the Five Tigers of Xiliang has not arrived, and His Royal Highness Xu Yunfeng has not arrived, Xu Yunfeng has not returned to the palace for many days, and he doesn't know where he is fooling around like a ghost at this time.

Except for Wei Song, who had contact with Lin Wan'er and knew the temperament of this talented woman, the other three looked at Lin Wan'er with some curiosity, looking at Lin Cai'er's actions of kissing Baoyu, Gao Cuilan couldn't help but smile, Fan Heming sighed in his heart: Interesting, Yang Tingxiong didn't feel it at all, he just wanted to take this opportunity to have a good drink.

Xu Xiao walked down the steps, walked in front of Lin Wan'er with a smile, stretched out his hand and said, "Miss Wan'er, please!" ”

"Hmm." Lin Wan'er accepted it calmly, and entered the Wenyuan first, and as soon as she went up the steps, she seemed to remember something again, and turned around and asked, "Lord Wang, who is this Gao Cuilan?" ”

She has always been curious about what Gao Cuilan, the only woman in the Five Tigers of Xiliang, looks like, she thinks that Gao Cuilan is the heroine, with the aura of the protagonist, extremely powerful, covering the sky with one hand, even Chen Nuonuo's woman is not Gao Cuilan's opponent.

At the beginning, Lin Wan'er still imagined that it would be good if she became a female general on the battlefield, with strong kung fu, and one to two princes, princes, elder brothers, and Lord Bell had a deep affection for herself, stalking and fighting, and she didn't marry, maybe these princes and princes didn't know what they liked about themselves, and she didn't know it herself, but she was so red-faced, you lived and died, the only reason was who made us a female general who crossed over.

Now there are indeed His Royal Highness the Prince and His Royal Highness the Prince by his side, but what kind of goods are these people, Zhao Ting's thief is too lazy to say, Zhao Feng, His Royal Highness the Prince of the World, is a chatterbox, and Xu Yunfeng, who has not seen it yet, is even more unreliable, as for Zhao Gan, the prince...... Hey, don't say it, I can't help but cry out loud when I talk too much.

Gao Cuilan, who was dressed in silver light armor on Xu Xiao's right hand, took a step forward, made a man's movement, and clasped her fists with both hands: "Miss Wan'er, down there is Gao Cuilan." ”

Lin Wan'er looked Gao Cuilan up and down, and couldn't help but be amazed, this is the legendary strange woman, much more magical than her own unworthy strange woman, Gao Cuilan is tall, half a head taller than Lin Wan'er, who is already outstanding in height.

Her hair is combed high, like a ponytail casually placed behind her, her eyebrows are more heroic, even if her bangs cover it, she can't hide the bright light in her eyes, she is dressed in light armor to outline her proud figure, and a scimitar at her waist that is slightly narrower than an ordinary cool knife, with a man's toughness and a woman's softness.

But Gao Cuilan is not a simple neutral beauty, but two kinds of beauty exist independently, you see her beauty as a man's beauty, the woman's beauty in her body disappears, you see her as a woman's beauty, and the man's toughness is gone, strange contradictions, and harmony and unity.

After staring at Gao Cuilan for a long time, Lin Wan'er raised her eldest mother's finger and exclaimed: "A real heroine, admire, admire, my second child admires you." ”

"Miss Wan'er praised it falsely." Gao Cuilan was a little uncomfortable under Lin Wan'er's attention, and this Lin Cainu's eyes were a little too direct.

Looking at Gao Cuilan, Lin Wan'er suddenly remembered the second child Chengping's girlfriend Tana, although she hadn't met, but she had fantasized about Tana's appearance many times, probably Gao Cuilan's temperament, maybe her personality was more hearty, her skin was darker, and she should be a little stupid, hairy, well, she should also wear braids, she can bring the wind when she walks, the higher the swing the better, she can't feel pain when she falls on the ground, and she is not afraid of night roads, she is bold enough to scare ghosts away, You can sleep on horseback, haha, it's quite suitable for the sullen character of the second child.

Everyone looked at Lin Wan'er nodding and shaking her head, not knowing where this talented woman's thoughts had flown to, just when she was greeting politely, she suddenly started to be stunned, dragging her chin with one hand, with a smile on her face. (To be continued......)
