Chapter 8: The Boy Who Sold Swords

The weather just entered autumn was very cool, this King Kang sat in this courtyard, tightly wrapped in fox fur, sitting on the rocking chair in the courtyard, it seemed that this cool weather was very cold for him, and his eyes were slightly closed, but they suddenly opened. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Wang Xun, why did you come back so quickly and send off Princess Ande?" King Kang slowly opened his eyes and looked at Wang Xun, who was carrying a food box, and slowly took out the bowl of noodles from the box to King Kang, and then handed over the plate of tender bamboo shoots like white jade.

"Lord, this is Princess Ande's intention, why don't you try it?" Wang Xun said with a smile, it is usually difficult for King Kang to see Wang Xun smiling, but Wang Xun's smile today makes King Kang feel interesting.

"Wang Xun, you have been with me for so many years, how long have I not seen you laugh!" King Kang moved the bowl of noodles to his table as he spoke, he didn't dare to raise his hand vigorously, but moved it to himself so slightly.

Wang Xun knew that this King Kang was not in good health and his body was weak, Wang Xun saw that King Kang was eating noodles so hard, so he hurriedly walked over and helped King Kang pick up this bowl of ramen and send it to Shen Chuan's mouth.

"Ziyu~" King Kang put this noodle in his mouth, and then his eyes lit up, and he picked up the big bowl, but he drank two mouthfuls of this soup, only to feel that his whole body was warm, and his body bones were crispy, so he hurriedly loosened the fox fur that was loosened on his body, and began to eat noodles in a big gulp wearing a single coat, and he was sweating profusely after a while.

At this time, it was only less than five minutes, this half bowl of noodles had been eaten, Shen Chuan wiped his sweat with his sleeve, Shen Chuan had eaten very much at this time, and then picked up a tender bamboo shoot, this slippery tender bamboo shoot went down to the stomach, Shen Chuan only felt that the mouth was full of fragrance, the bamboo shoots were refreshing and crispy, and instantly stimulated Shen Chuan's appetite, and after a while, this big bowl of noodles was actually eaten with this plate of tender bamboo shoots.

Wang Xun looked at the son who was sweating profusely today, and his eyes widened.

King Kang took out a handkerchief and wiped his mouth, then pulled the fox fur on his body up, and said in a very peaceful tone, "It's delicious, it's the best noodles I've ever tasted." ”

"If it's delicious, I'll go to King Ande's Mansion tomorrow to ask for a bowl of noodles."

"Forget it, forget it, it's troublesome, and I'm tired of eating it all the time." Shen Chuan touched his stomach, slowly stood up, and slowly walked back to his room.

Although King Kang didn't say that he liked the noodles made by Li Xiaoyu very much, Wang Xun had taken care of King Kang for a long time, and King Kang's mood was all expressed on his face.

At this time, Li Xiaoyu sat in the carriage, slowly driving in the four alleys, this Celestial Dynasty has just been established less than fifty years, the entire Chang'an City is a new atmosphere, most of the old houses in the city are now replaced with bricks and wooden boards, the streets have also been widened, and the shops have begun to widen their storefronts.

However, only the four lanes outside the Kang Wang's Mansion and the Kang Wang's Mansion have not changed at all, the four streets near the main entrance have changed greatly, and there is a Shengde Rixin archway built in front of the entrance of the four streets, and the four lanes behind the Kang Wang's Mansion are simple and abnormal, and the roofs are all thatched and wooden boards, but the slightly better ones are the eaves are slightly sloping, and both sides are built of wooden boards.

The whole Chang'an City is improving, but this four alleys have undergone earth-shaking changes in other places, but here it is still like a stubborn old stubborn, maintaining its unique characteristics "chaos, poor, and disagreeing with each other, this is the only place in Chang'an City that can be regarded as a place in the rivers and lakes." ”

Qingluo, who was driving the carriage, was driven into the carriage by Li Xiaoyu, and Li Xiaoyu was sitting in front, if he remembered correctly, there was a blacksmith shop a little further ahead, and the note he got today was thrown into the car when he passed by this blacksmith shop.

Before Li Xiaoyu walked to the blacksmith shop, someone walked up to him very respectfully and asked, "This young lady, do you want to order a sword?" ”

Li Xiaoyu sat in the carriage and glanced down at the child, the child was only twelve or thirteen years old, his dirty and greasy hair was like weeds in late autumn, and his face and exposed arms were also black and could not be darker, the most incredible thing was that the child's eyes were extremely clear, and he was carrying a Han sword behind his back.

Li Xiaoyu frowned, as a chef, her work habits made her never like to do business with people who didn't pay attention to hygiene, "Me? I don't need a sword, I don't know how to use a sword at all, so why should I buy it? ”

"Miss, go slowly! The swords in our shop are all swords specially used to seek revenge, especially the revenge of killing my father! The boy's gaze became resolute, his voice was muffled, and at the end he deliberately suppressed it.

Xiaoyu was stunned when he heard this, then lifted the curtain of the carriage and said to the little maid lying in the car, "Qingluo, you wait for me here, this child is too pitiful, I'll buy him something to eat." ”

"Let's go, take me to General Di Zifu Di."

The child nodded, and then slowly walked into the blacksmith shop with her, this blacksmith shop is different from ordinary blacksmith shops, no one is working at this time, everything seems very quiet, and the boy took Li Xiaoyu to go inside, and soon saw a man wearing a round-necked short coat and this Chu-colored linen pants.

The man was the same as the child, the clothes on his body had not been washed for an unknown amount of time, and the cuffs and knees, because of the oil stains, looked exceptionally bright in the dim light. The man's nose is very straight, the eyebrow arch is high, and he has a beard, which has nothing to do with the "handsome" that Qingluo said.

As soon as the man saw Li Xiaoyu, he trembled with excitement, suddenly knelt down on one knee, and said, "Miss! Please forgive your subordinates for their dereliction of duty and failure to protect Lord Hou! ”

"Di joins the army, please hurry up, I want to know, how did my father die." Although Li Xiaoyu is not Li Yu, she has Li Yu's memory, in Li Yu's memory, her mother's figure is illusory, and only her father dotes on her in the entire Li family, and half of the time in her memory is spent with her father, and her father's death is a stalk in her heart.

Di Zifu looked at Li Xiaoyu, sighed suddenly, and said, "Master Hou, we have been ambushed by the Huns!" A full 100,000 Hun cavalry, and our side only 30,000 vanguard light cavalry, even if our Heavenly Dynasty soldiers are heroic, but the Huns have already prepared, plus the enemy cavalry is several times that of my Jing border guards, Hou Ye died on the spot, Xiao cavalry general Yao Kejian was captured, Zhonglang general Meng Tao was killed, 30,000 soldiers only escaped less than 2,000! ”

"What? How did the Huns know our marching route! Li Xiaoyu looked at Di Zifu suspiciously, but Di Zifu was angry, gritted his teeth and said, "There are spies within the Celestial Empire, pass on the news to the Huns!" ”
