As the saying goes, 'fists are afraid of being young and strong', and it is normal for masters on the rivers and lakes to not be able to beat apprentices, but now this situation is ...... It's obviously a bit of a flirtatious thing about martial arts......

Ning Yuhe squinted and stood for a moment, not seeing anything from Xu Buling's expression, so he smiled:

"Ling'er, your body seems to be recovering well...... There's nothing to teach as a teacher......"

As he spoke, he turned around and left.

Xu Buling knew that he might provoke his own Master Bai, so he stepped forward to block the way:

"Preaching and teaching is preaching the 'Tao', I have a good understanding since I was a child, and it is natural that I can't beat me, and the master doesn't have to take it to heart."

Ning Yuhe pursed his lips, although he said so, but when the master was beaten by his apprentice, he felt ashamed when he thought about it......

After pondering for a while, Ning Yuhe slowly calmed down the waves in his heart, but there was still a faint pain in his legs, and his thoughts of preaching and teaching couldn't be lifted for the time being, so he just said softly:

"You've already seen it once, let's practice slowly by yourself first, and I'll take the exam for you in a few days."

"Okay."

Xu Buling nodded seriously, raised his hand and lightly threw the bamboo branch into the bamboo forest, and walked to the eaves of the house:

"Master, you came to the capital to find Xiao Ning...... Senior sister, what's going on? ”

After Ning Yuhe came to the capital, he hadn't chatted seriously with Xu Buling, thought about it, walked to the stool under the eaves and sat down, rubbed his aching thighs with his hands, and said softly:

"It's nothing...... I was going to find an old friend to thank me, but unfortunately I disappeared a few days ago...... When you were Qingming, you wanted to go to the tomb of Queen Cui, but you were injured again at that time, and you didn't go to the ...... I can only wait until the Dragon Boat Festival......"

Xu Buling was a little surprised, sitting in a wheelchair, slowly making tea:

"Master and Empress Cui know each other?"

Ning Yuhe rubbed his tight thighs, and his eyes flashed a hint of gloom:

"The Cui family is also in Youzhou, and they are not far from each other, so they naturally know each other......"

Xu Buling was a little curious: "By the way, why did the master run away from marriage back then?" I heard rumors in the rivers and lakes that the master is a chivalrous woman in the rivers and lakes, and she is used to traveling to the ends of the world, so she doesn't want to enter the palace? ”

Ning Yuhe turned his head to look at the majestic Chang'an outside the mountain, was silent for a moment, and then shook his head and smiled softly:

"The phoenix crowns have been sent to the gate, if you don't want to marry, you have to marry, where can I call the shots. Although I like the freedom of the rivers and lakes, I am not stupid, and it will not end well if I escape the marriage of the emperor's family, and I will not be treated badly as a queen......"

Xu Buling was stunned for a moment, raised his head and frowned slightly: "Then why did the master run away from marriage?" ”

Ning Yuhe hesitated for a while, his face showed a little sadness, and he picked up the teacup and took a sip:

"It's old, and if you talk about it, you will be killed...... But you are the prince of Su, and it doesn't matter if you hear it, just don't spread it......"

When Xu Buling heard this, he knew that something was wrong, and nodded:

"Someone forced Master to run away from marriage?"

Ning Yuhe recalled for a while: "I am the young lady of the second room of the Tang family, and my mother was originally a ranger on the rivers and lakes, and later married the second uncle of the Tang family as a concubine and gave birth to my ......"

Xu Buling frowned and thought for a moment: "Didn't the Tang family say that the master is the daughter of the head of the Tang family?" The concubine is not qualified to be the queen, with the status of the Tang family, if it weren't for the reputation of Xuanhe Bakui, the concubine would be a little reluctant to be the queen......"

Ning Yuhe sighed faintly: "As long as the Tang family doesn't say it, who can figure it out...... After the first emperor continued to stand up, the 'Xiao Lu Cui Wang Li' and other big families were actually interested, and the Tang family naturally wanted to fly on the branches to become a phoenix, and climb relatives with the Song family......

…… Empress Dowager Xiao entered Xuanhe Bakui, and other families were not easy to fight, so the Cui family let out a rumor and led Xu Danqing to the peach blossom forest of the Cui family in Youzhou...... Otherwise, with Xu Danqing as a ranger, he would not be able to break into the gate of the Cui family with a hundred lives......"

Xu Buling nodded, in fact, he had already guessed about this, this is the same as Xu Danqing getting drunk and running into King Su's mansion by mistake, unless the disciples are blind, otherwise it is impossible to spread the beautiful talk of entering the peach blossom forest after drinking.

“…… Later, after Cui Xiaowan became famous, the Tang family saw the Cui family's approach and was also moved. It's a pity that Tang Jiao's daughters are not very good, so he chose among the side descendants and found me......

…… I was only fourteen at the time, and no one cared about it at all, and I was out like a boy, and I was found back by the Tang family, and I taught for a long time, and then I took a lot of trouble to let me and Xu Danqing 'meet by chance', and then I had the sentence 'It is difficult for a woman in the world to enter the painting'......"

Xu Buling picked up the teacup and took a sip: "Then compete for the position of the queen, the Cui and Tang families have not fought for the Huainan Xiao family, but unfortunately Xiao Xiang'er just entered the palace, the first emperor died, when today's son ascends the throne, and the queen is going to be chosen?" ”

Ning Yuhe nodded and sighed softly:

"At that time, the youngest daughter of the Xiao family had already entered the palace, and the second lady naturally could not enter the palace as the new emperor and queen, so the generations would be chaotic. The daughters of several other families are not of the right age, and they are not famous, and the only ones who are qualified to be queens are Cui Xiaowan and me......"

Xu Buling pondered a little: "The Cui family has been inherited for hundreds of years, and its status is much higher than that of the Tang family, which is a half-Jianghu and half-general, and finally chose the Tang family because of the master's reputation as the 'first beauty'?" ”

Ning Yuhe shook his head and smiled: "I don't know, maybe it has something to do with my fame...... At that time, I was already preparing to enter Beijing, and I had packed all my things, just waiting for the greeting envoy to come to my door...... When the greeting envoy was about to arrive, Cui Xiaowan's guards ran over and told me that the Cui family's people wanted to kill me, so let me run quickly......"

"Huh?"

Xu Buling was stunned for a moment, sat up slightly straight, and was a little inexplicable: "The people of the Cui family came to inform you and let you escape from the marriage?" Master, do you believe it? ”

Ning Yuhe sighed faintly: "At that time, Cui Xiaowan's dead soldier secretly came and said, 'Miss asked you to leave quickly, the Cui family sent someone to take your life', I hesitated for a while, the killer really came, or did the dead soldier escort me out......

…… Later, he was chased and killed for a few days, and when I heard the news, the team to welcome the relatives had already been rerouted to Cui's house. The people of the Tang family were naturally angry when they missed the opportunity to soar, thinking that I had run away from marriage and sent someone to hunt me down, and I was going to go home to explain...... But in order to protect me, my mother ran to the Tang family to intercede, but was killed by the Tang family......"

Speaking of this, Ning Yuhe's eyes turned a little red, showing a bit of hatred: "Later, naturally I didn't go back, and I killed the people of the Tang family...... It wasn't until the Son of Heaven opened his mouth to pardon me that I sought a stable place in Changqingguan, and naturally I didn't dare to say anything about this matter, otherwise the Cui family would definitely kill ......"

Xu Buling nodded and pondered a little: "Cui Xiaowan is kind-hearted, but it's a pity...... Within a few years of entering the palace, he died of illness, and these family lords, in order to fight for power and profit, are indeed not human......"

Ning Yuhe sighed faintly: "Yes...... Cui Xiaowan is also in Youzhou, and after becoming famous, I actually went to see it secretly a few times...... She has a dead man, she is very loyal to her, she is very introverted, she hides when she sees outsiders, she has not come out of the peach blossom forest in Dalian since she was a child, just like the canary in the cage, she is not suitable for changing places, and she naturally ...... Alas~ The dead soldier who escorted me at that time heard the news of Cui Xiaowan's entry into the palace on the way, so he wanted to forcibly take me back to change Cui Xiaowan back...... It's a pity that the matter is a foregone conclusion, where to change it back. If it weren't for saving me, Miss Cui could actually let the dead man escape with her...... Who knows......"

Xu Buling frowned slightly: "That dead man entered the palace later?" ”

Ning Yuhe nodded: "The dead soldier who has been raised has been isolated and cultivated since childhood, and he should be emotionless, and he will only listen to orders and will not make his own decisions...... But the dead man obviously had some thoughts of his own, and after learning that Cui Xiaowan entered the palace, the dead man couldn't change Cui Xiaowan back, so he followed him into the palace and never showed up since......

…… I went to Beijing this time to look for Qingye, and I also wanted to stop by to meet and say thank you, and by the way, I went to Xiaowan's tomb to pay respects...... It's a pity that I didn't find anyone, and I heard that I was missing......"

Xu Buling took a breath, raised his hand and rubbed his forehead: "After the dead man entered the palace, he was accepted as a righteous son by Gonggong Jia and changed his name to Jia Yi?" ”

Ning Yuhe put down the teacup and nodded: "I heard that it is...... When I saw the dead man back then, he was only in his early twenties, he was quite handsome, and he cared about Cui Xiaowan very much, and when he heard the news of Cui Xiaowan's entry into the palace, he also scolded the head of the Cui family and ...... That's right! ”

Ning Yuhe seemed to remember something, and said with some doubts: "He also scolded Song Yu, the king of Yan, saying something 'a true gentleman who has no faith in his words, and the true ......gentleman of bullshit', I was young at the time, and I didn't know who Song Yu was, and I only found out later that ......"

Xu Buling thought back to the teacher of the Guozijian, and was slightly puzzled: "What are you doing to scold King Yan?" What does King Yan have to do with this? ”

Ning Yuhe shook his head: "I don't know, but Song Yu gave up the throne, he should have been in Youzhou, and he didn't go later, so it stands to reason that he didn't see Xiao Wan before he ......."

Xu Buling leaned back on the wheelchair, frowned and thought for a moment, and nodded......

Last winter month.

The wind was cold, and there was no life in the bare peach blossom forest.

The picture scroll hangs on the peach branch, and the cardamom girl dressed in a rogue is trotting through the peach blossom forest with her skirt, and turns around to reveal half of her face, with a little panic.

"Who are you...... Don't draw me...... I'm......"

The aftermath echoed in my ears, and it seemed that I had returned to the peach blossom forest in Youzhou.

Jia Yi, who was dressed in a white scholar's robe, had a bit of old age on his face, his fingers gently stroked the scroll, and he was in a daze for a long time, and a soft sigh sounded:

"Miss, you shouldn't have entered the palace......"

Stomp –

Footsteps sounded from outside the courtyard, and Song Yu, who had returned from Wenqu Garden, closed the courtyard door and sat down in the teahouse again.

White mist came out of the teapot on the small stove, and there was only a soft 'poof' sound in the courtyard.

Jia Yi stared at the scroll for a long time before turning around and walking into the teahouse, picking up the teacup that was already slightly cold and taking a sip:

"Back then, the Cui family wanted to send Miss into the palace to be the queen, but Miss was unwilling, and the prince once sent a letter to Miss and said that he would not choose Miss ...... I have already broken my promise once, why should I believe you? ”

Song Yu looked at the teapot in front of him, shook his head and sighed softly:

"Xiaowan said that she doesn't want to be a queen, I don't even want the throne, it's not enough?"

Jia Yi shook his head, his voice was flat: "Breaking your promise is breaking your word, you promised not to choose the young lady of the Cui family as the queen at that time, and the young lady has always been grateful to you for treating you as a friend, and said that when you will be in Youzhou, I will take you to see the peach blossoms...... Do you think that if you plant a peach blossom forest here and be accompanied by a portrait all day long, the young lady will be able to be moved by you? The young lady is planning to die of illness in the palace, and she doesn't want to see you......"

Song Yu raised his hand and stopped Jia Yi's words, with a little sadness in his eyes, but his voice was a little harder:

"I, Song Yu, have never broken my promise, I gave up the throne and went to Youzhou to be an idle prince, just for a promise...... But I didn't expect that some things would be much easier to do sitting on that dragon chair, and if I gave up, I could only obey others, not because I didn't want to fulfill the contract, but because I couldn't ......

…… At that time, I worked hard to persuade the clan to choose Miss Tang, but Miss Tang escaped marriage, and the Cui family took advantage of the situation to send Xiaowan into the palace. ”

Jia Yi's eyes were indifferent: "Then what do you want to do with my life now?" Take back your throne? ”

Song Yu poured a cup of tea and looked at the swirling tea leaves in the teacup: "The throne, I never put it in my eyes...... Xiao Wan's death is a crime in the royal brother and the Cui family, you want to avenge Xiao Wan, I want to too, but you and I can't repay you alone, you have to need a knife. ”

Jia Yi snorted lightly: "After the matter is completed, you go down to make amends to Miss?" ”

Song Yu turned his fingers around the teacup and said indifferently: "After the matter is completed, I will pass the throne to the son of the imperial brother, I didn't ask for that chair back then, and I won't want it now." ”

"Why is it not allowed?"

"The Xu family is stationed in Qianyang Pass, from Qianyang Pass to Chang'an is only three hundred miles, and the Xiliang Iron Cavalry can come to the city for three days, which is a big trouble for my Song family. The imperial brother poisoned Xu Buling with the lock dragon Gu to prevent future troubles, but unfortunately the failure became a stalemate. Xu Buling still has the strength to fight, as long as he makes a move, I can cut the Xu family's military power for the crime of rebellion, and it can be regarded as asking for comfort for my Song family. ”

Jia Yi picked up the teacup and took a sip: "The Holy Shangcheng Mansion is unpredictable, and the assassination will fail if you don't order it?" ”

Song Yu raised his head and said in a deep voice: "That's the case, but the evidence has been destroyed by the imperial brother, and you need to use your life to make Xu Buling believe that the lock dragon Gu that the wolf guard took from the palace back then." ”

"Even if it succeeds, the successors to the throne should be a few young princes, if you don't sit on the dragon chair, how can you destroy the Cui family?"

"The emperor's brother has been suppressing military affairs since he ascended the throne, Liu Pingyang, Han Zhongyu and other generals have long been dissatisfied, but it is difficult to speak because of the strength of the Xiao and Lu families...... When the deed is done, they will put the king on the throne. ”

Jia Yi was silent for a moment, nodded, and put down the teacup in his hand:

"In ancient times, most of the people who called true gentlemen were villains...... I only want the life of the saint and the Cui family, as for whether you should be the emperor or not, and how long you will be the emperor, Miss and I will not care. ”

After the words fell, Jia Yi stood up and looked at the picture scroll hanging on the peach blossom tree, the cold wind blew, and the figure had disappeared into the courtyard......
