Chapter 92: Lin Qi
It is said that there can only be five palace gates of the palace, and more than that is considered a violation, but the palace has opened another one in the direction of the palace, and the palace is also built extravagantly and gorgeously, and the emperor's favor for his nine sons can be regarded as far more than the other sons.
Chen Wei's own room is very simple, there are not many furnishings, and the bed is also old, which has not been changed for more than ten years.
It's not that he is simple, and it's not that he wants a good name, where does he have any reputation to speak of? That's just a demon every day, not taking the minister in his eyes, and beating the king's grandson and brother at every turn and can't take care of himself, if it weren't for his father who loved him and carried everything for him, just Yu Shishen's excerpts were enough to make him a hundred and eighty times.
How can this kind of person make a bad life because of his reputation.
He raised countless beauties in his garden, and each of them lived the most luxurious life, but he couldn't enjoy wealth.
For more than ten years, in addition to falling asleep on his couch, every time he closed his eyes elsewhere, it was a nightmare, so that he even had to carry a bed and basic furniture for marching and fighting.
Chen Wei sat at the table for more than half an hour, and then he came back to his senses, pushed open the window, and saw a guard in armor standing at the window.
"You go to Qixian and catch up in ...... Never mind. Chen Wei smiled bitterly, "Why bother to set up any archway!" β
Not far to the east of King Li's Mansion, there is the National Teacher's Mansion.
There are not many places near the palace, and most of the houses are rewarded by the emperor, and only those who are close to the royal family can get this honor.
The National Teacher's Mansion at first glance. To the palace is more magnificent, but the decoration design of others, it is really a must in the capital, or Mr. Chongyang personally designed it, in the past ten years, it is still unconventional.
The current national teacher's surname is Song, called Song Miao, who has inherited the position of national teacher since he was twenty-eight years old, and has always won the love of His Majesty for 20 years. Although there is no real position in the DPRK. But it is an indispensable force in the capital.
Song Miao has not asked about the world many years ago, except for presiding over a blessing ceremony once a year, or when a major event occurs in the court, His Majesty will come to ask for divination. At other times, there are no outsiders for many years.
Many miscellaneous matters of the National Teacher's Mansion. It was all made by his two disciples.
Today, Song Guoshi, who has been staying at home for more than ten years, suddenly became interested. I only wore a light suit, and I didn't bring an entourage, so I wanted to go around the Dayun Temple.
The two disciples had no choice but to throw away the work in their hands. Follow the past to escort.
Although their master is not very old, his health is not very good, and once he blows the wind and gets sick once, it is a very fatal thing.
Jing Shen was mixing pills behind Dayun Temple, and when he looked up and saw Song Miao coming, he seemed to be surprised: "It's rare, it seems that this year's medicine is not yet time, why are you in such a hurry?" β
Song Miao calmly sat down on the chair slowly, and then took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it over. β
"Beiyan Wanming said it himself, he is a disciple of the great grandmaster Li Tao, although it makes people waste his kung fu, his eyesight is still there, it shouldn't be wrong, and he didn't find his body at that time?"
Song Miao was wearing an ordinary white robe, her hair was mixed with a little frost, and the whole person sat there, her momentum was calm, and anyone who only looked at him would feel that this person was a righteous gentleman. Caution knows that this is a person who treats the world as nothing and likes to play with everything in applause, and even he, who has dealt with him for most of his life, actually doesn't like to sit face-to-face with him.
"In fact, it doesn't matter if he dies or not, there are only a group of women left in the Lin family, even if he survives, he can only hide in the gutter and wait for it to rot, can he still turn the sky upside down, besides, even if he finds someone to take revenge, he is also looking for King Li, what does it have to do with people outside the world, our national teacher of the Great Zhou Dynasty?"
Caution sighed and persuaded softly.
Song Miao didn't speak for a long time, as if he was hesitating, but when he looked at his eyes, he knew that this person was even hesitating to show others, and he suddenly felt a little impatient in his heart.
"That's it, just let the 'quicksand' end it, it's not a difficult thing, they kill people, just look at the money and don't ask the reason, it just so happens that I have a female disciple who is also in some trouble over there, so I will help her clean it up, which can be regarded as a gift for her."
Prudence is a monastic family, without the compassion of a monk, to having an egalitarian heart, whether it is a human being, a cat or a dog, there is no big difference in his eyes.
"It's that 'quicksand' is more expensive, killing someone can be worth more than half of a house, you have to pay the money, I am a monk, and I am very poor."
Song Miao is not bad for money, he has no concept of money, but the two apprentices can make money, and they are very filial, and it doesn't hurt to make some money, so when he heard the cautious female disciple, he couldn't help but laugh: "You take it easy, the one from the Xia family, I see that I don't really regard you as a master, you are still a wolf cub, don't look at the mother, the mother is more vicious, be careful that she has become the climate, you are the first to suffer." β
"It's the respect of the strong, the survival of the fittest, if I can't always be stronger than her, and I am harmed by her, I can only consider myself unlucky." Caution is to like disciples who have the ability and wrists, unlike Song Miao, who is a poisonous spider himself, but he has raised a pair of sheep-like disciples, which is simply disgusting.
In the capital, the national teacher Song Miao and his fox friends noticed Qi County, Qi County, Hongchen They just happened to mention the national teacher.
"Why did the envoy of Northern Yan enter Beijing at this time?"
The students of Yan Shan Academy are among the top scholars in the local area, and although they are not in the court, they are also very concerned about the court's affairs.
It is said that this is not the end of the year, although there are some small-scale disputes on the frontier, but such disputes occur every year, and it is not uncommon, to the point that it is necessary to send envoys to each other, and the holy birthday of His Majesty is in February, and this year has passed.
"Could it be that the imperial court has made any big moves?"
Many students pondered whether the Great Zhou and the Northern Yan were going to form an alliance, the two countries, the Great Zhou was rich, and the Northern Yan was strong and strong, and if the two countries formed an alliance, the relationship between the four countries would change again.
As a result, they thought about it for a long time. Let Guo Lao slap back.
"A group of people who don't study, this year's Great Zhou is a Jiazi, Your Majesty and the national teacher are going to hold a big sacrifice, and other countries will be forgotten, Beiyan and my Great Zhou are brothers and neighbors, how can you not come?"
Brotherly neighbors?
A group of students looked at each other, and the wars between the Great Zhou and the Northern Yan had been frequent over the years, and they had almost forgotten the good relations in the history of the two countries. Hongchen also recalled history for a long time, and this year there must be a big sacrifice, which was set a hundred years ago.
Everyone in the world knows that the Zhou Dynasty attaches great importance to the existence of spirit masters who can communicate with heaven and earth. But few people have noticed the root cause. A hundred years ago, Emperor Taizu was still a general of Chen Guo, when the world was in turmoil, and Taizu guarded the little emperor and fought hard for days. Retreat to the Southern Regions. There is no way back. At that time, there was a spiritual master who came from the jungle of the Southern Regions, saying that he watched the stars at night, and the demon stars fell from the sky in Chen Kingdom. The Chen State can no longer exist, unless there is a new Ziwei Xingjun who can take on the heavy responsibility, so that the people can be spared the suffering of soldiers.
That spirit master looked like a master, but his tongue was also extremely powerful, and he was able to move the last lord of the Chen State at that time to take the initiative to say that if he got Ziwei Xingjun, he would be a subordinate.
Of course, this lord didn't live until Ziwei Xingjun was born, but within a few days, he relapsed and died.
The new Ziwei Xingjun is naturally the Taizu of the Great Zhou, and he has really achieved some feats, pacified the troubled times, expanded the land of the Chen State more than three times, and established the Great Zhou Dynasty, Taizu and Taizong, the two generations of emperors are wise holy lords.
At that time, the Northern Yan was still a small tribe, and their leader was Taizu's close friend, or Taizu helped the Northern Yan lord to establish the country, and the Zhou Dynasty was strong at that time, which was completely different from now.
Hongchen sat and watched Guo Lao eat sencha while teaching the students, she didn't mind entertaining her classmates, these students came to their own teahouse to gather, and they could also help the teahouse to publicize and publicize, which seemed more stylish, besides, let Luo Niang and them get in touch in advance, get to know more people in the academy, and prepare for the future entrance examination.
It's that Guo Lao's mouth is getting harder and harder to serve, and Qu Sanniang is not willing to serve him - who wants to serve a guy who eats the food you cooked, but doesn't have half a good word, it's all bad words!
Although the cook is very professional and does not skip work no matter how unwilling she is, Hongchen is not an employer who likes to embarrass her subordinates. Every time she came, she went to prepare some refreshments by herself to keep Sanniang busy.
"Hey, why is Xiao Mo so quiet today."
After chatting for a while, Guo Lao turned his head to look at Xiao Mo, who was sitting in a daze on the side, and said in surprise. In the past, Xiao Mo was not noisy, but every time everyone discussed, he occasionally interjected a sentence, so that some students in the academy knew that Xiao Mo of the teahouse was proficient in scripture and history, and his talent was far-reaching, and even Guo Shanchang praised it.
Hongchen shrugged: "He may have been uncomfortable for the past two days, and he doesn't like to talk much." β
Guo Lao glanced at Xiao Mo a few times, and comforted him seriously: "Xiao Mo, you are not young, you are at the age of worrying about marrying a daughter-in-law, don't worry, I am not an ordinary person, I am the head of our Yanshan Academy, and the good woman I know is full of cars, what do you like?" Fat? Skinny? We don't want a family background that is too good, we are squeamish, we just want someone who is knowledgeable......"
Xiao Mo stood up, turned his head and walked out.
There was laughter all around.
Guo Lao was stunned, and suddenly suddenly said: "Do you have a favorite girl?" He glanced at Hongchen and straightened his face, "Men don't put their minds on these feelings and loves all day long, read more, study more, and only then will they be able to make a difference in the future." β
Xiao Mo has long since disappeared.
This Beiyan envoy passed by Qi County, but he really just passed by, and did not cause any trouble, and he was ready to leave the city this afternoon.
The whole county breathed a sigh of relief, and even the Shangguan who greeted them was relieved.
You must know that the county master has lost weight twice in one breath in the past few days, and at first glance, he seems to have changed as a different person.
Hongchen remembers very clearly, in the last life, one year after she married Wang Yue, the envoys of the Northern Yan also came to the Great Zhou, from the moment they entered the border of the Great Zhou, the capital was full of chickens and dogs, and it was not lively, they were all the way to the scourge, before entering Beijing, the officials of the Li Fan Yuan were sent to stomp, kneeling in front of the Xuanzheng Hall and crying, but this matter was still suppressed, no one mentioned it much, and when the envoys entered Beijing, they were still polite and polite, showing the good-neighborliness and friendship between the two countries.
At that time, King Li had already become the crown prince, and he was so angry that he vomited blood in the main hall, but he had to grit his teeth and swallow back after vomiting blood. They are all elite soldiers and strong generals, but Da Zhou has already had a lot of internal friction, and his military equipment is slack, and he is no longer strong.
It was also that time that Wang Yue was frightened by the Beiyan people who came on horseback on the street, and Hongchen was by his side.
After thinking about it carefully, Hongchen hooked the corners of her lips mockingly, as if it was from that time on, this person gradually became a little strange to her, and she was not indifferent. It's just a little more distant. At that time, he didn't think about it, and deliberately didn't mention Beiyan for his face, but he forgot that Wang Yue was the man with the best face, a woman who saw his ugliness. How could he still be close?
It's getting dark.
Guo Lao looked at the sky. The moon is bright. There was a moon halo, and although the weather was clear, he was still a little worried about the rain. simply took the students to help Hongchen collect the books drying in the garden first.
Since this old man smelled the fragrance of books in the garden, he had to come over every three or five days, but Qu Sanniang was bitter, and he prepared the meal alone, even if he had Luo Niang's help, he was a little too busy.
The students, especially those who were fortunate enough to be in the same examination room as Hongchen during the assessment, were very curious about the food in the teahouse.
Guo Lao is not such a nerd, he doesn't know how to look at people's faces at all, recently he went to the teahouse, and from time to time he would bring Qu Sanniang some snacks from famous chefs outside, and would order two cooks from the academy to help, although it was because of his picky mouth, it didn't reduce Sanniang's disgust, and he wouldn't be driven away.
I was sorting out my books, and the kitten outside brought someone into the door.
said that he was a little servant of the Xue family, and as soon as he came in, he knelt down and kowtowed, his face was pale, his lips were chapped, and he was so anxious that he was sweating.
Hongchen was taken aback: "What's wrong?" β
"Our eldest lady went to Puji Temple this morning to make a vow, passing by Cangqing Mountain to come down to enjoy the scenery, in the evening, the young lady sat in the bamboo forest on the mountain to rest, and she suddenly disappeared, we searched for most of the day, still can't find it, Miss, you, you must save our eldest lady!"
The little guy fell to the ground and cried bitterly, and Hongchen's face changed.
Xue Qingqing She has only met once, she is a soft and well-behaved girl, she does not leave people outside, and she does not run around, and she is not Xue Wenwen, Qi County has not been very peaceful recently, there are a lot of people outside, and a group of abductors has just come out.
The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she became.
"Did you report to the police? Did you tell Master Xue? β
"Someone has been sent, and everyone else is looking for it in the mountains."
Hongchen hurriedly called the kitten and the little fox to call people, called the family, and then called Jiangjiazhuang and Zhoucun.
Although the yamen is not very far away, it is not early now, and it takes time to go back and forth, "Let's go to the mountain first, do you have any belongings that your young lady has with you?" β
The little guy cried a handful of snot and tears: "No ......"
Also, he is a villain, how can he take the things that Miss carries at will, Hongchen is a little regretful, if there are personal items, then bring the family hound, it may be more convenient to find.
Before going out, Hongchen asked a hexagram, she now believes in these hexagrams, more than in the previous life, the result is the next hexagram, the danger is ahead, she sighed in her heart, and hurriedly left her mind behind and walked out, thinking that her level of fortune-telling is average, and the books in her arms are not moving, and she can only comfort and comfort herself.
The mountain trail is difficult to walk.
Hongchen walked as he tried to ask about the flowers and trees around him.
But I don't know if the flowers and trees here are relatively lazy, or the spirituality is too low, I don't know if I just ask three questions, and I don't know if I see them.
The little guy was very anxious, leading them all the way, and soon found the last place where the eldest lady of the Xue family stayed.
It is a very elegant pavilion, sitting in it can see the waterfall flowing straight down, surrounded by bamboo forests, lush forests, beautiful scenery, but this place is just a fork, there are four paths alone, and there is a way down the mountain.
Hongchen glanced at it, it was getting late, and she didn't know how to find someone, so the little guy was so anxious that she wanted to cry: "Miss, let's look for it separately first, if we can't find Miss again, the little one is really not alive." β
ββ¦β¦ Okay, everyone be careful, the mountain road is steep, don't be alone. β
Everyone answered, and went their separate ways.
The little guy took the initiative to be with Hongchen and helped her go: "I remember that I seemed to hear some sounds not far in front of me just now, but I was very anxious at the time, and I didn't find it after turning around in the past, so I thought it was an illusion, and now I think it's really careless, in case it is a young lady...... There's a cliff ahead! β
Hongchen sighed and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, Jiren has his own natural appearance." β
The two of them didn't have long gone. Rounding the bend, sure enough, it was a mountain cliff, the little guy rushed over in two steps, his footsteps staggered, Hongchen hurriedly reached out to help, but saw him look at the mountain with a frightened face, hurriedly stretched out the torch, and also probed down.
And behold, there was a light green shadow lying underneath.
"It's my young lady, she went out today wearing green clothes, how is this good? Miss. Miss! β
The little guy shouted at the top of his lungs.
But the people below did not move.
Hongchen's heart also fluttered. I lowered my head and looked closely, and I was looking at it, when someone suddenly shouted behind me - "Be careful! β
Qing Feng on his waist tugged violently, and he pulled her away two steps in a daze. Grunt. A stone rolled down in front of him. There was a loud bang.
Hongchen turned his head suddenly, and under the afterglow of the torch, he saw the little guy's face hideous. The pupils contracted, and with a fierce face, seeing her dodge, with a step, he rushed to her eyes and pushed hard.
She only felt that her body was unstable, and she fell backwards, and the wind poured into her ears - it was over!
Hongchen could no longer have imagined that death was so abrupt, but she had never lost a battle with a very powerful evil monk.
I closed my eyes, but the pain didn't hit, and the moment I fell, my wrist was firmly grasped by one hand.
Before Hongchen opened his eyes, he could already smell a strong bloody smell in his nose.
"Don't be afraid!"
Xiao Mo hugged him with one hand, and jumped down.
"Ahh
Hongchen only shouted briefly, and then paused, she did not fall, but slid down against the cliff wall.
Xiao Mo has a small dagger in his hand at some point, not only is the material good, it is obviously blessed by a special light, and the bearing power is also strong, piercing into the stone wall is as simple as stabbing tofu.
It feels very slow, but from the top to the bottom of the cliff, in fact, it is only a few breaths, and suddenly there is a dense rain of arrows pouring down above, Hongchen feels that his arm is also bruised, and the whole person is hugged by Xiao Mo, sticking behind a stone that is not big, and the smell of blood is getting more and more intense.
In a short time, a whistle suddenly sounded above, and there was no movement all of a sudden, Hongchen suddenly relaxed, exhaled, and saw Xiao Mo gently grab her arm, pull up her sleeve, and bite down viciously.
Blood flowed sideways, and painful red dust and tears flew out.
"Does it hurt?"
Xiao Mo's voice was inexplicably indifferent.
The corners of Hongchen's mouth twitched.
"It just hurts."
She suddenly realized that something was wrong, the torches were gone, the moonlight was dim, only by that little moonlight, Hongchen looked at Xiao Mo, his arms were full of blood, but it didn't look like it was hurting, but the bloody breath was sweet and disgusting.
For many years, Hongchen has not had such close contact with a man, and he is still a man who is not annoying at all, even if he looks at his face, he feels very moving.
Her heart fluttered twice, and she thought in a tranceβis this an affair?
When she was a young girl, she loved to read such heroes to save beauty, and she also had countless longings for love, until she married Wang Yue later, so she didn't have such dreams, and now she didn't look forward to it, and she didn't think that she would enjoy it from time to time.
In the moonlight, Xiao Mo's lips are white, a little light, very thin, and his side face is also very good-looking......
Hongchen suddenly trembled with acid. Xiao Mo thought she was cold, hugged her a little closer, and said softly: "Don't worry, Luo Niang, they are nearby, this time it's 'quicksand', quicksand never makes a loss-making deal, nor does it implicate people other than the mission target, except for the two of us, it will be safe, just let them come." β
Quicksand - Quicksand's business, the first-class will never miss, one hit will kill, Hongchen smiled, she obviously did not enjoy the first-class treatment, otherwise the killer would never leave.
It was very windy in the mountains, and the wolf howl could be faintly heard, Xiao Mo rested his head on the stone beside him and reached out to hold Hongchen's fingers.
Hongchen shivered, but his hands were as cold as a piece of cold jade, and people couldn't bear to let go.
"I never told you what my name was."
"It's okay if you don't say it, you're Xiao Mo."
"My name is not unpopular, my surname is Lin, my name is Lin Ping, and I am the seventh son of the Lin family." Xiao Mo said softly, "Always." β
Hongchen was stunned, although he knew that Xiao Mo's background was not simple, he never thought that he was Lin Qi.
Lin Qi escaped from the battle, like treason, the crime is unforgivable, His Majesty read that the Lin family died on the battlefield, only sentenced to exile, this matter is well known in the Great Zhou, because Lin Ping is only the son of the Lin family, and the Lin family even removed his name from the family tree...... (To be continued......)
