Chapter Twenty-Seven: Fighting the Eagle Tower
After a riot in the evening, the birthday banquet of Prince Zuo's mansion had already dispersed, and Jiang Yu, who had passed his birthday today, was so angry that many generals and strategists were silent, and a curfew began in the black city, and the streets were full of officers and soldiers searching for the impossible to find the enemy bandits.
In front of Wangfu Street, Chang Shijian and Wu Wei came out of Prince Zuo's mansion and returned to the restaurant together.
Wu Wu, who was dressed in a Taoist robe, had a deep gloom in his eyebrows, Xiao Peach Blossom and her father died at the hands of the wolf guard, although it is natural for the official to kill the thief, the blood feud should still be avenged, the cause of the chaotic battle in Renyi Hall was that someone assassinated Xu Buling and leaked the news, and no one is to blame for the idea of going to the rivers and lakes, but this blood feud is naturally regarded as Xu Buling's part, but I have only seen Xu Buling's skills, and the ten martial arts leaders in the world are nothing more than that.
Back in the restaurant, Wu Wei sat down at the wine table by the window, and after a moment of silence, he first put his personal grievances in his heart, looked at Chang Shijian opposite, and saw that Chang Shijian kept pressing the hilt of the sword and was silent, and sighed softly.
After Wu Wei fled from Chang'an City, he took his brothers, wives and daughters on a long journey to Jiangnan for refuge, and took Xiao Taohua to find a suitable master by the way. When I was looking around, I met Chang Shijian, who was walking around Jiangnan.
Chang Shijian is a person who 'fights the Eagle Tower' in the Central Plains, and recruits talents in Jiangnan all the year round.
As for the details of 'Fighting Eagle Tower', Wu Wei is not very clear, but he can guess a few points just by name. Ten years ago, the imperial court 'Iron Eagle Hunting', countless Jianghu people died in this catastrophe, and naturally there were people who escaped the catastrophe, and they tried every means to wait for the opportunity to move.
Fighting Eagle Tower is after the Iron Eagle Hunting, it is not the most popular among all the resistance forces, but because of its ruthless methods, there are many masters, and it has just appeared to shake the imperial court, and the poison in the Eagle Tower has been in the first place for many years among the gangsters wanted by the Investigation Division, and the remaining bandits are also famous, and they are the only wolf guards on the rivers and lakes who have seen the Jianghu forces that want to hide.
Wu Wei is superb, his brother was chased to death by the wolf guard and had a blood feud with the imperial court.
As a newcomer who has just joined the gang, Wu Wei doesn't know how many people there are in the Eagle Tower and where the nest is, but he just follows Chang Shijian around the rivers and lakes, and this time he came all the way to Heicheng, in order to find a suitable master for his niece through Chang Shijian's connections. At present, it seems that this trip is in vain.
"Brother Chang, the jade pendant was taken away by Xu Buling, and it is difficult to get it back, how should I arrange it next?"
Hearing Wu Wei's inquiry, Chang Shijian frowned and thought for a while:
"The jade pendant must be taken back, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to the above. This is not a ...... Alas, just now I saw his skills, I'm afraid it's almost the same as the seniors in the building, I definitely can't get it back, I still have to go back to my life before making plans......"
Wu Wei nodded: "I have some grievances with Na Xu Buling, if I can use it, Brother Chang can just open his mouth." ”
Chang Shijian thought for a while: "King Su's master is like a cloud, plus Xu Buling himself, we can't do anything about him for the time being." I can go back to restore my life alone, you send your little niece to the capital of Northern Qi first, if Zuo Gong is willing to accept the best, if you don't want me to find a way for you. ”
Wu Wei raised his hand to show his gratitude, and thought for a while: "The Zuo Guoshi of Northern Qi is indeed a contemporary strange person, but it is far away from the enemy country in Mobei, and it is a little far away, I am afraid that Xiao Taohua is not used to life on the grassland...... I heard that there is also an old-timer on Yuelu Mountain, I don't know how Brother Chang ......"
Chang Shijian raised his hand slightly: "That old fairy in Yuelu Mountain has a strange temper, I don't know which side to stand on, and he has always been looking for someone, no one is looking for his share, if it weren't for that, we would have gone over to visit him a long time ago, and we would have carried him back to the building to offer him." ”
Wu Wei nodded lightly when he heard this, it is not easy to meet a famous teacher, where is there a point of picking, and he will not say much at the moment......
-------
On the west side of Heicheng, six hundred miles away in Suzhou City, the wind is still calm, and the earth-shattering feat may not be transmitted back in a few days.
The palace in the city is brightly lit, and the maids come and go, and under the supervision of Mama Lilac, they take out all kinds of mountain and sea treasures from the treasury, record them on the gift list, and put them on the carriage.
In order to make Xu Buling and Mrs. Lu more comfortable on the road, the housekeeper has gone to Lanzhou to prepare a big boat, as well as the dowry gifts, daily food and clothing utensils, etc., which can not be sorted out in ten days and half a month.
In the courtyard of the back house, it is also a similar scene.
Mrs. Lu, who had just lived in Suzhou for less than a month, began to pack up her belongings again.
Women in this world, whether it is the poor people, or the princely family, it is not easy for women to travel everywhere, and only those chivalrous women who do not follow the rules of etiquette have the opportunity to wander around.
Mrs. Lu has lived in a high-walled compound since she was a child, and when she grew up a little, she came to Chang'an, and she may have a lot of knowledge in books.
This time I went out with my baby, you can enjoy the mountains and rivers on the way, and the end point is the hometown that she has not been back to for many years, Mrs. Lu is naturally in a very good mood, and even a little impatient.
In the boudoir, Mrs. Lu folded her belly pocket and dirty pants and put them in the box in front of the cabinet, humming a popular song in the neighborhood. I just took a shower, wearing only a close-fitting blue coat, my hair was draped on my back, and I occasionally bent down to pick up the clothes under the cabinet, and the thin pants were tight and tense, which made people blush when they looked at it.
Xiao Xiang'er didn't get up to clean up, lazily lying on the soft couch, her eyes stayed on Mrs. Lu's lower circumference, and she didn't know what she remembered, she looked down at herself, and slightly folded the skirt on her waist to look behind her, and then glanced at Mrs. Lu a few times, and gently 'cut' it.
Mrs. Lu was packing up her things in a gentle manner, and when she heard Xiao Xiang'er's slightly mocking tone, she turned around:
"Xiang'er, what's wrong?"
Xiao Xiang'er shook the fan listlessly, and said casually:
"Hongluan, you will suffer a lot in the future."
Mrs. Lu was naturally puzzled, frowned inexplicably, turned around and continued to pack her things:
"What's the trouble?"
"If I don't tell you, you'll know then."
Xiao Xiang'er looked like a 'person who came over', sighed softly, and then moved her gaze away.
Mrs. Lu folded the clothes, opened the cabinet next to her and continued to clean up, thought about it, and asked softly:
"Where did Ling'er go? I haven't seen anyone for a few days, and the palace doesn't seem to be a big deal. ”
