Girls, don't slap me in the face if you want to hit me, haha, or...... Take the monthly ticket and cook it, pour me, pour me, pour me.

Ahhh It's coming, it's coming!

------Off topic------

Hai Rigu looked at her, his smile was a little strange, and his hand stroking his beard seemed to be much slower, "The third prince is good-looking!" I have lived a nail for a while, and I have never seen such a handsome son as the third son-"

"Why? Why do girls like him? ”

Xia Chuqi's curiosity soared to the extreme.

Ah, dare to love or a heartthrob?

Hai Rigu saw that she was a girl, and she was also interested in his third son, and the wrinkles on her face smiled even more, "What is the name, I don't know the old man." Everyone calls him the third son, and he respects him very much...... Especially the girls, they all like him. ”

"Old man, what is the name of the third son?"

Somehow, he became more and more curious about this third son.

Distinguishing his words, Xia Chuqi was slightly stunned.

Seeing that they were interested, as if the third prince belonged to his family, Hai Rigu added a little smug to his face, stroked his beard and smiled, "Don't hide it from your guests, our third prince is really a strange person." He was not only in the horse business, but also in silk, tea, ironware, and furs...... But whatever can make a living, he will do it...... Moreover, he was a very good man, and the price he paid was fair, and everyone liked him and was willing to do business with him. So, I'm afraid your trip has been in vain. ”

Zhao Jun hesitated for a moment and said with a smile, "Who is the third son?" ”

Could it be that there was also monopoly trading in ancient times?

The third son? Xia Chuqi pondered his pronunciation and was stunned.

Speaking of this, he glanced at Zhao Zhu, as if he wanted to say something extremely private, turned sideways, and lowered his voice, "I'm afraid the distinguished guest won't know that the horses in the Yinshan area are all sold to the third prince......"

Before she could think about it, Hai Rigu smiled again, "But the herdsmen have horses, so they can't keep them, right?" Horses are sold out for the greatest profit, and in order to feed the family, they have to be sold secretly......"

Horses are the main force of war, and the horses in Mobei have the fierceness that is famous all over the world, whether it is Beidi or Wuliang Khan, it is normal to control the horses of the herdsmen, Xia Chuqi thought, this is probably similar to the gun control in later generations. But what about the horses raised by the herders? And what about the business of those horse merchants?

Hehe, Hai Rigu waved his hand and said, "No wonder you don't know, over the years, the Great Khans have been tightly controlling the horses, and if they sell it privately and are discovered, they will suffer." ”

Zhao Zhu's complexion was relaxed, and he smiled lightly, "I have taken over my father's business for two years, and I often run around Xilin Gol, but I am all doing fur business, and horses are doing it for the first time, and it is also the first time to come here, which makes the old man smile." ”

"Old man, I'm joking, I'm just looking at the faces of distinguished guests, I'm afraid it's the first time I've come, right?"

His face was calm, his posture was noble and graceful, and every word was spoken in a low and powerful manner. Hai Rigu stroked his long beard, met his sharp gaze for a moment, laughed, and the words changed.

"And what do you think I do?"

Zhao Zhu frowned slightly, "oh", and smiled.

"This distinguished guest is not like a businessman."

Hai Rigu stared, looked at him, and shook his head.

Zhao Bottle arched his hand and said: "Horses, I don't know if the old man has a familiar way?" ”

"How many people came from Kannai, what kind of business are they doing?"

Hairigu poured mare's milk wine for them, poured a few mouthfuls into his throat, and then opened the conversation, not only introducing them to the grand Luban Festival to be held in Ergu, but also taking the lead in mentioning their business.

A chubby old man with a beard received them warmly. According to Jiayi, his name is Hai Rigu, he has some prestige in Gacha Village, he is a famous old man, he not only knows a lot about big and small things, but also understands Chinese, and often receives caravans between the north and the south, from which he gets some money, and his life is prosperous, and he is very good at things.

The Mongolian felt bag is much warmer than the cold wind outside.

A group of people lined up, and at first glance, it looked like a long dragon of a black dragon.

Glancing in the direction of his finger, Zhao Zhu thought intently, nodded, glanced at Xia Chuqi, patted the horse's back, and with a "drive", he led dozens of horses to gallop on the way to Gacha Village.

Gacha Village is the closest village to the Yinshan Imperial Mausoleum.

Since Bingyi was left behind in Tai'anwei, the person who took the lead this time was Jiayi. He became a pathfinder, and before the caravan reached Yinshan, he had already explored the road in front of him, and also found a place to stay. He pointed to the slope in the distance, and added in a deep voice, "It's just three miles down that slope, very close!" ”

"Master, there is Gacha Village in front."

With festivals comes business opportunities. In addition, the Mobei grassland has been frozen for a whole winter, and the climate has finally eased, which is a good time to do business, and everyone wants to join in the excitement, which is normal. However, when Xia Chuqi thought of Zhao Xi's words, he always felt that Wuliang Khan was not so simple in doing this, and he would not have any good intentions.

Unlike the "peer rejection" she imagined, the merchants fished the same side door and ate the same rice in the same pot, but they were very friendly to each other. From the conversation, they learned that these businessmen were all preparing to go to Ergu to participate in the "Luban Festival".

Along the way, they met several real caravans.

She walked beside Zhao Zhu, looking at this group of dozens of people, riding horses, pulling carts, carrying knives, carrying bows, Kong Wu lined up in a row, walking on the prairie with great momentum, and suddenly had a sense of immediacy of a local warlord.

Stepping on the old land again, the old mind was far away, and the seventh day in the early summer only felt that it was surprisingly cold on this day, and this place was also depressed, cold, rough, and there was no gentle and graceful beauty of the Central Plains.

Now Zhao Zhu and they are dressed as such businessmen.

The caravan came to Mobei to buy horses, furs, and mare's milk wine to make money, and sold rice, vegetables, silk, salt, iron and bronze utensils from the customs. This kind of border trade business is extremely profitable, but ordinary businessmen do not dare to make a living in this way, for fear of accidentally taking their lives into it. Therefore, those who want money and don't want to die, have some small-scale armaments in their hands, and can independently travel between the Yinshan Triangle.

Due to the geographical particularity of the "Yinshan Triangle", the small battles here have not stopped. However, due to the harmonious relationship between Beidi and Nanyan, the Wuliang Khan only dared to occasionally disturb the internal affairs, and did not form a regular battle between countries, and the people have always had normal business and trade exchanges.

No wonder they all say that "triangle is the most stable", Xia Chuqi once again believed in the laws of physics.

Due to the expansion of Wuliang Khan, Beidi has to garrison the newly discovered imperial mausoleum, and this life is partial to the border with Nanyan, so today's Yinshan area, obviously formed a "three pipes and three can not manage" cross area, Xia Chuqi called it the ancient version of the "Golden Triangle". The three forces of Beidi, Nanyan, and Wuliang Khan all wanted to completely control it, soak it, and gain control of it, but they restrained each other and could not do so for the time being.

After more than two years of absence, there have been great changes here.

After two days of jolting on the horse, I finally arrived at the Yinshan area.

There are Mongolian people in the team, there are Dayan people, along the way you say I don't understand, I say you don't understand, the birds are constantly talking, the exchange is very interesting, and the seventh day of the summer is also very happy.

With a few different men, the march was faster.

This time, Zhao Zhu left more than ten people in Tai'anwei, and left Bingyi, who was close to him, to take over the matter with Lakshen, and also to facilitate communication between them. For the safety of Zhao Zhu, Lakshen sent more than 20 people, dressed as the caravan's entourage, to escort them to Yinshan.

After a short stay of two days, the trip to Yinshan on the seventh day of the first summer started again.

The roulette wheel of history is about to turn to the next stage.

Anyway, the dark curtain before dawn finally tore a hole.

That night, he "taught" her deeply, causing the jackdaws near Tai'anwei to flutter and flutter, and the guards on duty at night also shyly went to the thatched house countless times.

For her remarks, His Royal Highness King Jin was speechless.

In this way, the matter of Taoyuan Inn is not just taking off his pants and farting - this is an extra move? Not only that, but she also has an oil bottle and an impotence patient, how troublesome will it be in the future?

At the celebration banquet that night, Lakshen, who was red-faced and red-eared, repeatedly said on the wine table, "From now on, only His Royal Highness the King of Jin will look forward to the horse", his happy expression and monkey anxious look are completely a sense of excitement of "finding the organization", seeing Xia Chuqi's face, he said in his heart: Maybe Zhao Xi is not needed at all, can it be said?

"There is Hasar in the north, and Zhao Bottle in the south" -- these two gods of war in the south and the north are both figures admired by the men of the time, and there is almost no need for too much lobbying by Zhao Xi, so Lakshin and Zhao Bottle had a very happy conversation and shook hands and made peace.

The Mongolian people call themselves warriors, not only brave in battle, but also rough and heroic. Compared with the previous restraint by Zhao Xi, the king of Ning, they were extremely happy about Zhao Zhu's arrival.

It is only said that Zhao Zhu's first mission to Yinshan was successfully completed with the method of "one meal, one wine and one flicker". A day later, Zhao led his entourage to Tai'anwei and reached an alliance agreement with Lakshen, the commander of Tai'anwei.

This is a later story, so I won't mention it for the time being.

Facts have proved that the "Taoyuan Meal" that day was very meaningful, and the 70,000 Mongolian cavalry obtained from Zhao Xi played an extremely important role in the future battle of Zhao Zhu's southward seizure of the throne. At the beginning of the battle, Zhao Zhu took this elite army back to Beiping Mansion, and formed an internal and external attack with the Jin army in Beiping, forcing the defenders of the southern army to flee overnight.

The reason why Zhao Zhu calculated Zhao Xi was for this matter.

Tai Anwei These Mongolian people are very smart, they have learned the lessons of the previous generation, and they are not willing to trust the Nanyan court easily, and it is even more impossible to trust a prince of Nanyan casually. Therefore, they have been taking money to do things. According to Xia Chuqi's statement, this Tai'anwei team is very similar to the nature of international mercenaries in later generations. The only difference is that people nowadays are more honest, since they have an alliance with Zhao Xi, no matter how much money Zhao Zhu spends, it is impossible to change hands casually.

It's just that on top of this "refuge", there is another big premise.

However, due to the fact that Emperor Hongtai did not allow them to enter the territory of Nanyan to settle in herding, in order to survive, after a long period of more than 20 years of struggle, they united one after another, and then absorbed other Mobei armed forces to fight against Nanyan and Beidi together. This is the reason for the formation of the early alliance of the twelve tribes of Uliang Khan. And the Tai'an Wei under Zhao Xi's hand was not handed over to the Uliang Khanate at that time, and no one knew about it, they had actually taken refuge in Zhao Xi, the king of Ning, a long time ago.

When Emperor Hongtai seized power, he had a headache for these small tribes scattered on the border of Nanyan. In the second year of Hongtai, he set up a number of guards in the area near the northern border of Mobei, housed those scattered tribes, and incorporated them into regular guards.

Their origins can be traced back to the ancestral era of the previous dynasty, and since then, this team has been frequently active in the Mobei grassland, migrating and wandering around the grassland with the nomads, and slowly forming an armed force.

Tai'anwei was an extremely strong Mongol cavalry.

When he left the inn the next day, although the expression on his face was ugly, he still didn't refuse, and took them straight to the Tai'anwei station, which was not far from here.

All the grievances are as if they have never happened, the proprietress Ning Xiang is still so coquettish, with a smile in her words, and a smile in her laughter, which amused Zhao Zhu's guards to feast their eyes, and they all smiled.

A group of dozens of people occupied the inn.

This night, the group stayed at the Taoyuan Inn, including Ning Wang Zhao Xi, who woke up after drinking the "healing elixir" added to the seventh day of the summer month.

~

But Xia Chuqi didn't hear it, she leaned on his chest, put her palm lightly, felt the violent turmoil of his heart, and looked at the mountains outside the inn window, and the eagle flew.

After a long time, he said a word.

"Okay."

"In that case, then Zhao Shijiu, let me work with you to fight a bloody path and walk to the peak of power, so that everyone in the world can see...... Who's the king and who's the coar! ”

Leaning on him quietly, she didn't know what he said again, just silently reached out her hand, held him tightly, and then slowly, interlocked her fingers with him.

Maybe no one is right, no one is wrong, and there are just helplessness.

If they do not lift up the sword, they will be the ones who die by the sword.

In this world, if you don't take it, you can take it.

This country, if you don't fight, you have to fight.

It is difficult for her to describe the emotions in her heart when she heard these words, and it is difficult to describe the sadness at that moment, not for Zhao Mianze's step-by-step pressing, nor for Zhao Xi's disregard for family affection, just for Zhao Shijiu's helplessness in fighting to the death between flesh and blood.

At the beginning of summer, there was a slight shock.

She was originally just a joke, but when Zhao Zhu heard it, she seemed to be touched. He stared at her for a moment, his dark eyes deepened, he sighed suddenly, hugged her tightly, hugged her into his arms, and said in a deep voice, "Ah Qi, I never thought that one day, I would have to raise the knife in my hand and slash at my relatives. ”

"Master, there is no one in the world who can stop you."

This time, it was the seventh day of the summer that wanted to vomit blood.

"With Ah Qi's shamelessness, he will be drugged."

"Why?" She was puzzled.

"There's no need to collude." Zhao Jun sighed softly.

Xia Chuqi couldn't help but be a little afraid when he thought of the previous "cooperation". If she didn't prevent Zhao Xi from having bad intentions, wouldn't it be a blind opportunity?

"Then why didn't you collude with me beforehand?"

"The little girl is right, the master has this intention."

Zhao Zun swept his eyes coldly and patted her head.

Xia Chuqi let out an understanding "oh" and said, "So, he didn't wronged you, it turns out that you have long coveted his Tai Anwei, right?" ”

"Ah Qi doesn't go to the court to try the case, it's really a waste of talent." Zhao Yu sighed innocently, and said, "Zhao Xi's first guess is right, the matter of my departure from the domain was indeed intentionally revealed to him. ”

"Even if it's a thousand days red, how can you determine that it's Zhao Xi?"

The corners of Xia Chuqi's lips curled up, and he laughed coldly twice, giving him a look of "spare you this time, and I will interrogate you carefully", and got down to business.

"Ah Qi, get down to business."

The expression on Zhao Zhu's face could no longer be used in words.

"You shouldn't know such a woman's thing, is it related to Amur?"

"......" Zhao Zun couldn't understand the woman's mind anymore.

"Do you know such a woman's thing, and have you ever given it to someone else?"

"......" Zhao Zun was speechless again.

"Why didn't you find me such a good thing?"

A thousand days red? Xia Chuqi pondered, looking at him even worse.

Zhao Zhu's face was slightly sneered, coughed lightly, and quickly changed the topic with her, "Did Ah Qi find out that the Kodan on the boss's nails is not an ordinary product, but a thousand days red from the palace?" Such a valuable thing, ordinary concubines are not available, where can the common people find it? ”

"Alright, let's talk about nails!"

Xia Chuqi also glanced down, only to find that the posture sitting on him was indeed not very conspicuous. panicked, quickly straightened up, raised his chin, and glared at him with a look of "I also have a murder weapon".

It's too good to hurt people, right?

"Although it is a flat river, it is also suitable for grazing, Ah Qi doesn't have to care too much."

Looking at her eyes full of fierce light, Zhao Tuo chuckled, a little helpless, "You woman, it's really unreasonable." The nails that are clearly said, how can they be inexplicably pulled to the chest? After thinking about it, he glanced down at her chest and sighed heavily.

She also has a killer trick for his silence.

"If you don't say it, you will acquiesce."

She had long heard that when a man looks at a woman, he first looks at his breasts, and then he looks at his face. She thinks so. And on the enchanting figure of the coquettish proprietress before, the most striking place is naturally not her nails, but on her breasts, those few taels of flesh are dangling, shaking the roots of the seven teeth at the beginning of the summer, where will you see the nails?

Xia Chuqi squinted at him, with a look of "contempt".

Zhao Shijiu was a smart man, and he chose not to answer.

At such times, it is wrong to answer anything.

“……”

"Tell me honestly, did you look at the boss's breasts?"

“……”

Fingernail? Surprised by his powerful distinguishing ability, Xia Chuqi rolled his eyes first, and suddenly raised his eyebrows again, "Okay, you Zhao Nineteen, even the nails of the woman's house are observed?" ”

Zhao Zhu frowned, removed her noisy paws on her face, pinched them in her hands, and tightened her moving body before saying indifferently, "That's because you ignored a detail." When the proprietress talked about the delicacies in the palace, she glanced at her nails, intentionally or unintentionally......"

"If you didn't already know, why would you be suspicious of that boss lady?"

Zhao Zhu didn't know what "neurosis" was, but looking at her expression, he knew that she was hurting herself, so she only smiled and shook her head, not in the way. Xia Chuqi was right, snorted, and changed the topic.

Don't you know? Xia Chuqi pursed his lips, stroked his fake beard, and gently stroked his fingers, teasing with a match, "It's not a god, it's also a demigod." Demigods, in our country, are generally called neurotics! ”

Zhao Jun smiled lightly and pinched her face, "You really treat your master as a god?" ”

She asked, "Did you know that Zhao Xi would come to the Taoyuan Inn?" ”

With a slight sigh, Zhao Zhu's eyebrows raised slightly, and motioned for her to say.

"Master, you asked me so many questions, now let me ask you."

She chuckled and shook his shoulder.

With that, she laughed alone and "gurgled", and her shoulders shook for a while. In fact, being able to easily collect the most elite 70,000 horses in Zhao Xi's hands was an unexpected gain for Xia Chuqi. But she couldn't stop laughing, but Zhao Zhu's face didn't seem to be too happy or surprised.

After a moment of silence, she came up with a word, "The combination of the two is invincible." ”

"Jerking!" How did Xia Chuqi know that the reason why Zhao Zhu heard her clean up Zhao Xi was just because he was wearing a red dress, what kind of mood he was in? She was happy and squeezed her eyes at him, "Master, we work together seamlessly, it's just a ......"

"It's okay."

"What's wrong with you?"

She spoke quickly, crackled and said a lot, and found that Zhao Zhu was silent.

"You didn't know about Tai Anwei before, how could you think of drugged?" Obviously, he was not "quite pleased", his face was gloomy, and the questions were one after another. Xia Chuqi looked at him, shook his head and cleared his throat, and deliberately teased him: "--There is only one reason, he looks like that, he dares to wear a red python robe, it's too sassy!" No one on earth can stand it. It's so funny, who will he clean up if he doesn't clean it up? ”

"Master, are you quite pleased that I am so smart?"

"How can I let you know about such a thing?" Xia Chuqi despised his fuss, and didn't dare to mention that the medicine she put in Zhao Xi's wine bowl at that time was actually to treat her ear deafness, and if she took the medicinal wine, she would have a feeling of distension and pain in her lower abdomen. She quickly changed the subject.

"Your secret?" Zhao Zhu's eyebrows sank slightly, "Why don't I know?" ”

"Needless to say? I'm so angry with you. Xia Chuqi looked at him proudly, blinked knowingly, and nodded unceremoniously, "Of course, there is also my credit." In fact, he came suddenly, and I didn't prepare medicine, but it happened that I had constipation in the past few days, and I happened to have a powder of sencatula on my body...... So he got some of it casually, this medicine is fierce, the medicine comes quickly, and with psychological hints, he naturally believes it......"

"Then why did he vomit blood and faint?"

"Master, what do you think I'll bring with me?"

At the beginning of the summer, there was a "poof" sound, and I couldn't help laughing.

"What's the medicine? That powerful? ”

Zhao Zhu glanced at her lightly, gave her a "Ye just knows" arrogant look, and didn't answer her words, only tightened the arm that circled her slightly, and asked the second question.

With a smiling "um", Xia Chuqi nodded, with a smile on his face, "That's right, it's forced, then why did you recognize that I must have the capital to force him?" ”

"It's not a threat, it's a coercion."

Zhao Zhu's dark eyes shimmered, looked at her face, and borrowed her words.

"It's strange that you ask. Speaking of which, master, you are also fat, right? You don't know when I was poisoned, and you dare me to threaten others? ”

After staring at each other for a moment, Zhao Zhu finally didn't say anything, just took her hand, hugged her on her lap, turned her head, and asked the question again seriously, and she suddenly laughed with realization.

"What's wrong?" Xia Chuqi sensed that his mood was wrong.

"Ah Qi......" Zhao Jun looked at her brilliant face, and his voice was slightly hoarse.

"I said I can't die, I can't die, don't worry."

She didn't know that she had become the object of worry, so she still guessed to herself, "Gollum" poured a mouthful of water, and patted Zhao Zun's shoulder with a smile.

Could it be that he was really so worried about Zhao Xi?

The deafness of her ears made her not hear his question, so she only went out to wash her hands by herself, and came over to get water to drink, only to find that Zhao Zhu's face was a little wrong - like sadness, like depression, and a complex emotion that she couldn't see through.

When he asked, Xia Chuqi happened to have his back to him.

"When did Ah Qi get poisoned? I didn't even see it clearly. ”

Ah Qi said that if he can't die, he will definitely not die. Although Zhao Jun did not believe in her medical ethics, he trusted her medical skills quite a lot. Hearing this, he breathed a sigh of relief, waved his hand to let the attendants retreat, he rubbed his forehead lightly, sat on the wooden chair of the inn's unified system, and looked at Zhao Xi who had not woken up on the bed, his eyes flashed slightly.

Xia Chuqi smiled and added, "Don't worry, you can't die." ”

What is the answer? Zhao Zhu's face sank and turned black.

"It's healthier to spit out, don't be afraid."

Xia Chuqi raised his hand to wipe his sweat and pursed his lips and smiled.

Not to mention the blood relationship between them, let's just say that if Zhao Xi braids his hair like this, everything they have done today will be wasted.

In his selfish heart, he didn't want anything to happen to Zhao Chen.

"Is he alright?"

is a good big living person, who vomits blood when he says he vomits blood, and faints when he faints, and he really shocked a group of people. Zhao Zhu sent Jia Yi to find a few people to carry Zhao Xi into the guest room of the Taoyuan Inn, and Xia Chuqi checked his pulse for him, and couldn't help frowning.
