Chapter 234: Chinese New Year's Eve
Finally, on the last day of the twenty-first year of Tianqing, the shepherd wolf decided to go to the county lord first.
But when the shepherd wolf came to the Song State Mansion, he was told that the county lord went to the palace to accompany the queen mother. The shepherd had no choice but to return......
Seeing the shepherd wolf go and return, sullen and unhappy, Huo Feng said: "What, was you kicked out?" Not really......" Shepherd Wolf said: "No, she went to Cining Palace." ”
Liu Suifeng, Zhang Luo, and Kang Lei already knew about the Shepherd Wolf and the Lord of Dangyang, so Liu Suifeng also quipped: "Seeing that General Mu's good things are approaching, are you still so anxious?" I think we can guess what the Queen Mother will do. ”
Zhang Luo said: "A person with the status of the Queen Mother, and a woman's family, nine times out of ten, what kind of rhetoric and poetry will it be, is it possible to test General Mu's martial arts?" ”
Liu Suifeng said: "I think the Queen Mother will probably consider it from the aspect of personality and character, after all, General Mu's past, the Queen Mother also understands it, if you have to let General Mu chant poems, wouldn't it be difficult for General Mu?" ”
Liu Ruyi just came in from outside, and was confused, "Brother, what are you talking about?" What good things are coming, what rhetoric is poetic? ”
Liu Suifeng said: "By the way, Ruyi ran out to play yesterday, and I didn't hear the good news announced by Yang Cunyi." We are talking about the marriage between General Mu and the county lord of Dangyang, and the Queen Mother has to test General Mu before she is willing to nod officially. ”
After listening to Liu Suifeng's words, Liu Ruyi was stunned on the spot, although she had already seen the unusual relationship between the shepherd wolf and the county lord of Dangyang, but she didn't expect them to make a marriage contract so soon......
Liu Suifeng said: "Ruyi, you ......"
Liu Ruyi sorted out her emotions and said busily: "Then congratulations to General Mu, the county lord's sister is not only beautiful, but also so kind-hearted, and only a woman like her with both ability and integrity can be worthy of General Mu's heavenly might......"
Mu Tianwolf said: "It's not that simple, just wait, after a while, the Queen Mother's decree should arrive." ”
Liu Ruyi turned around and left the room, and everyone thought that she had gone to her room to prepare something else, and they didn't pay attention to it.
But on the thirtieth day of the lunar month, the first guest who came was not the eunuch in the palace who sent the decree as Mu Tianwolf thought, but Qiushui and Xing Yin. As soon as Xing Yin came, he said directly: "General Mu, I want to ask the general for a favor if I have something next......
Mu Tianwolf said: "I already owe Xing Zhutou I don't know how many favors, I naturally can't ask for a chance, Xing Zhutou said it's okay." ”
Qiushui was more direct and said, "General Mu, can you lend us personally?" There is a tricky case, and the murderer's martial arts are too high......" Huo Feng interrupted with a smile: "I don't know which one the Qiushui girl wants to borrow?" You can pick it yourself, hahaha......" said as everyone looked at You Long.
You Long didn't speak, and he was also waiting for the autumn water to be ordered.
Qiushui began to feel a little embarrassed, and wanted to be with You Long, but he felt that he should be reserved and not let these people see jokes! But after struggling for a while, he finally followed his inner impulse, Qiushui pointed at You Long and said, "It's just him, I'm used to it anyway......"
Yulin also teased: "You're used to this? It seems that there are still a lot of things we don't know about the autumn water girl and the dragon......"
Qiushui remembered the embarrassing experience with You Long, his cheeks couldn't help but turn a little crimson, You Long also saw Qiushui's uneasiness, and hurriedly explained: "Let's go, the case is important." Xing Yin said, "Then there is Young Master Lao Yi, it's Chinese New Year's Eve, and I also pulled you to perform official duties with us." ”
You Long just said "It's okay", and followed Qiushui and Xing Yin.
Liu Suifeng sighed with emotion: "It's not easy for this god to catch the door, and the Chinese New Year's Eve has to investigate the case and arrest the murderer." ”
Zhang Luo said: "No one is easy, aren't we also in exile in the Chinese New Year's Eve?" If it weren't for General Mu to take him in, I'm afraid I would have spent this year at the post station......"
The shepherd wolf said: "You don't have to be like this, I am not a good person, and the reason why I befriend you is just because I think you are worthy of friendship." Just like Pei Qihu and Luo Xi and their brothers, I just hope that I can ask you to help me when necessary. ”
Liu Suifeng said: "It is because General Mu can be so frank and frank that we dare to live in General Mu's mansion with confidence, otherwise we will definitely have scruples, haha......"
Kang Lei also said: "What Liu Dashuai said is, although I don't know what the reason is why General Mu did everything possible to make friends with a master with the spirit of martial arts, but from the fact that my stupid brother can follow General Mu without hesitation, we also know that General Mu must be going to do something earth-shattering, I am afraid that our qualifications are too poor and we will not be able to reach the step of martial arts......"
Mu Tian Wolf said: "The comprehension of the spirit of martial arts is originally about a fate, and you can't force it, so you don't have to take it too seriously." ”
Liehu said: "That's it, look at a few of us, even though we've been with the general for so long, haven't we still reached that step?" Hahaha, if they are all under pressure like Brother Kang Lei, I'm afraid that they will have to lose their minds and go crazy! ”
The mad lion said: "That's a tiger, you don't want to forge ahead, but I'm ready to break through at any time!" ”
Everyone focused on the spirit of martial arts again, until a second guest came to the General's Mansion. It's just that this second guest is still not sent by the Queen Mother.
Nanyasha He Tian ran to the general's mansion in a hurry, and as soon as he entered the door, he said in a loud voice: "Shepherd wolf, you come out for me!" ”
The shepherd wolf came out of the room and saw the menacing He Tianfang in the yard, and he didn't know what this guy was crazy about...... "I'm out, what do you want?" ”
He Tianfang said: "What means did you use to confuse my father? And what means did you threaten my sister! Today I went to Cining Palace to meet the Queen Mother, she actually wants to marry Qiang'er to you! He also said that my father agreed, and Qiang Er didn't object! ”
The shepherd wolf said: "You come with me, there are some things that I need to talk to you about from the beginning." ”
So, He Tianfang was taken to his room by the shepherd wolf. As soon as he entered the door, He Tianfang said angrily: "You'd better give me an explanation, otherwise, I won't let you go!" ”
The shepherd wolf said: "I am consensual with the county lord, and I have not used any means. He Tian said: "Fart!" Do you know that Qiang'er likes a Jianghu person, Ling Chifeng, the second son of the Bounty Building! How dare you speak out here and say that you are wishful thinking! ”
The Sky Wolf didn't speak, but took off the mask on his face and said, "Is this Ling Chifeng?" ”
He Tianfang was speechless in surprise when he saw the true face of the shepherd wolf, wasn't this the person who claimed to be Ling Chifeng of the Bounty Building on the roof of the ancestral hall that night...... Moreover, it is rumored that the shepherd wolf is not extremely ugly, which makes people feel creepy at a glance......
After a long time, He Tianfang said: "This ...... What's going on? ”
The shepherd wolf said: "I said, this matter is a misunderstanding, we have to start from the beginning." So, the shepherd wolf began to explain to He Tianfang one by one, because he needed He Tianfang's water spirit, and now it was a godsend......
Mu Tian Wolf went to Beijing to take up his post, talked about going to Putuo Temple to incense to save the county lord, then the encounter outside Qingquan Valley, and then to the serious injury and escape into the Song State Mansion, being rescued by the county lord, the planning of Wuju, and the bloody ......battle of the Hanshui ferry, "So, Ling Chifeng just carried the black pot for me." ”
After hearing all this, He Tianfang said: "It turns out that so many things are done by you!" Are you loyal or traitor? ”
"I have to say one more thing, and you will understand where I stand." When I was about ten years old, Ye Chang, the last emperor of the previous dynasty, told me that this world was about to be destroyed, and that there was another creature in this world that was constantly encroaching on our continent......"
So, the shepherd wolf told He Tianfang all about the necromancy, as well as the things recorded in the "Pirate Legend" that the county lord helped him translate......
He Tianfang felt that his worldview was about to collapse, "So, you are so eager for quick success and quick profit, for the sake of all sentient beings in the domain?" Hahaha, I really didn't expect that the shepherd wolf, who has always been iron-blooded and treats human life like a mustard, actually played the role of a savior......"
Shepherd Wolf said: "You are wrong, not only the creatures in the domain, but also those creatures outside the territory who are about to face extinction, only when the domain is unified and has the absolute right to speak, can you rest assured that those foreign races outside the domain can migrate in without war." I'm a living creature myself, and I can only do my best in the face of the threat of undead creatures. ”
He Tianfang said: "You are telling me this so that I can agree to your marriage to Qiang'er?" ”
The shepherd wolf said, "No. You overestimate yourself, and whether you agree or not doesn't matter at all. ”
He Tian was extremely deflated, "You...... If you don't think I matter, why do you tell me so many secrets? The shepherd wolf said, "I need your help." Because fighting against necromantic creatures requires the power of martial arts spirits of different attributes, and you now have water spirits. ”
He Tianfang said: "I see...... Wolf Shepherd, in this way, you are indeed a man, and it is not disgraceful for Qiang'er to marry you. Well, you managed to convince me, you brother-in-law, I admit it! Come, call Brother Sheng to listen? Hahahaha......"
The shepherd wolf said: "I repeat, I don't need your approval for my matter with the county lord. I just need your water spirit. ”
He Tianfang: "You...... You're boring! Okay, I promise you, if you wait until the empire is unified, I will fight against those necromantic creatures with you, and I, He Tianfang, am not a hard-hearted and irresponsible person. ”
The shepherd wolf said: "There is one more thing, today's conversation must be kept secret, otherwise if the matter of the dead spirit spreads, there will be no order in this world." ”
He Tianfang said: "Do you still need to say it?" I'm not stupid! By the way, the Queen Mother doesn't like you, her grandson-in-law, and is preparing to make things difficult for you. And many people in the palace disagree with this, including Concubine Chu, Concubine Li, the fifth princess, and even the lady of Shu outside the palace! ”
The shepherd wolf was puzzled: "Lady of Shu? He Tianfang explained: "Hussar General Yu Hualong, the title is the Duke of Shu, and his wife is the Lady of Shu. This is understandable, after all, Yu Ziqiu's guy likes Qiang'er for a day or two......"
Shepherd Wolf said: "So, the test set by the Queen Mother is actually the result of so many people making suggestions together?" ”
He Tianfang nodded and said, "That's right! What, isn't it stressful? Hahaha, if you want to marry my sister, how can you do it if you don't have any strength! ”
The shepherd wolf said, "I'm afraid this test is not just a test...... By the way, when you leave the palace, what about the county lord? Did I go out of the palace with you? He Tianfang replied: "No, Qiang'er was left behind by the Queen Mother, saying that she wanted to accompany her for a while, what's wrong?" ”
A trace of uneasiness flashed in Mu Tianwolf's heart, remembering the tricky case that Fang Cai Qiushui and Xing Yin talked about, and said, "No wonder I can't wait for Yi Zhi, it turns out that this test has already begun......
