"Brother!"

Suddenly, a sweet female voice came from downstairs.

"You are Sima Jiu's sister!"

"Uh-huh! Who are you? ”

"We'll meet again, hahahaha!"

After a few brief conversations, there was a laugh downstairs that made Sima Jiu's scalp tingle.

The voice was very familiar, and Sima Jiu suddenly had a bad premonition.

It turned out that after Yang Xuanting went downstairs, he transferred most of the military candidates, leaving only a few in Huimaoxing for nominal surveillance.

After Hui Maoxing started business, Nalan Lingyun and Sima Ruohua prepared to go upstairs to find Sima Jiu.

However, in the corridor, they met Dugu Shengli, the general of the Right Tun Guard.

Dugu Shengli, as the general of the Right Tun Guard, naturally understands the details of Sima Jiu.

She knew that the girl beside Nalan Lingyun was Sima Jiu's younger sister Sima Ruohua, but Sima Ruohua was born with a water spirit, and she was a little shy at this time, so Dugu Shengli let out an uneasy laugh.

Sima Jiu's heartstrings tensed, and it wasn't until the laughter faded away and disappeared that his heartstrings relaxed.

After all, Dugu Shengli likes women's reputation, but it spreads outside.

If she had her eyes on her sister, it would be troublesome.

Not long after, Nalan Lingyun and Sima Ruohua went up to the third floor.

They had all heard about Liu Meiniang, and Sima Jiu was able to get Kunlun Cailian to cure Sima Ruohua's natural marrow disease, and Liu Meiniang contributed a lot.

Therefore, after they went upstairs, under the instruction of Sima Jiu, they made a big gift to Liu Meiniang.

"Sister Liu, thank you for taking care of your brother." Sima Ruohua met Liu Meiniang for the first time today.

"My sister only thought that Sima Jiu was born beautiful, but I didn't expect that his sister was born even more beautiful."

Liu Meiniang's words made Sima Ruohua a little shy, and Sima Ruohua did not shy away from praise: "Sister Liu is the second best-looking person I have ever seen." ”

"Then my sister thinks, this first-looking person is this girl, right?" Liu Meiniang didn't see outside, and looked at Nalan Lingyun.

Sima Ruohua nodded heavily.

Nalan Lingyun said: "Nalan Lingyun has seen the shopkeeper Liu!" ”

"Eh, the reputation of the rising star of the doctor, my sister has heard a lot, my sister should not see it like this."

......

Nalan Lingyun and Sima Ruohua spoke politely, spoke nicely, and liked Liu Meiniang very much, and the three of them quickly chatted together, but instead put Sima Jiu aside.

After Youtun Wei and Wu Hou withdrew, diners poured into Hui Mao Xing.

Therefore, Liu Meiniang took Sima Jiu and others to a private room to talk.

Three women in one play, Sima Jiu couldn't say anything, and Xia Ruohan sat idly on the side.

Sima Jiu saw that the decoration of this private room was very elegant, and there were many calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls around him, so he couldn't help but get closer to watch.

The picture scrolls on the wall are mostly pavilions, smoke and rain, mountains and rivers.

Sima Jiu didn't understand art, and he lacked art appreciation, but he actually saw it in a daze, and the whole person seemed to be integrated into the painting.

Taoist nature and medical benevolence have penetrated deep into his bone marrow, and at this time, the two inner breaths unconsciously and slowly surged, which seemed to resonate with the picture scroll.

What Sima Jiu didn't know was that Lejia's qin, chess, calligraphy and painting already contained the original qi, which had the effect of adjusting internal breath, which was of great benefit to the body.

This kind of origin qi is, to a certain extent, the best medicine to soothe the spirit.

Although the avenue of the world has changed in many ways, if it reaches the extreme, it is also the same way.

"Brother! What happened to you? Sima Ruohua chatted with Nalan Lingyun Liu Meiniang for a long time, and found that Sima Jiu was in a daze in front of a painting.

"Oh! Nothing! Sima Jiu suddenly responded.

Only then did he realize that most of the paintings on the wall were actually from Zhan Ziqian and Dong Boren.

No matter how Sima Jiu didn't understand art, he had also heard of the great names of Zhan Ziqian and Dong Boren.

"Fascinating paintings, painters who have been passed down through the ages, and indeed live up to their reputation!" Sima Jiu praised in his heart.

Nalan Lingyun said: "If you have nothing, let's go!" ”

"Where to go?" Sima Jiu didn't know why.

"Sister Liu's house is not far from here, we are going to my sister's house as a guest." Sima Ruohua was extremely excited, she was holding a lot of things that Liu Meiniang gave her.

"It seems that you are not going to be guests, you are going to rob!" Sima Jiu's gaze fell on what was in Sima Ruohua's hand.

Sima Ruohua pouted, "Are you going or not!" ”

"Go, I'll go!" Sima Jiu couldn't refuse.

As a result, he was reduced to a coolie.

He and Xia Ruohan helped Sima Ruohua and Nalan Lingyun carry a lot of things, which were all given to them by Liu Meiniang, and there were a lot of rouge, jewelry, and food.

Sima Jiu originally thought that Liu Meiniang, a rich woman, would be very luxurious, after all, Liu Meiniang was an important figure in the business, and if she didn't have a mansion and property, it seemed unreasonable.

However, to Sima Jiu's disappointment, Liu Mei's mother's house was not big, nor was it a mansion, not even much bigger than the place Sima Jiu rented.

It's just that Liu Mei's mother's house is very clean and the decoration is very warm, which makes Sima Jiu feel at home again and wants to live here.

Sima Ruohua, Nalan Lingyun and Liu Meiniang seemed to have endless words, completely ignoring Sima Jiu and Xia Ruohan, and letting them talk about business on the side.

It wasn't until four o'clock in the hour that Liu Meiniang cooked and cooked a table of meals.

A pot of delicious chicken soup, accompanied by several plates of delicious dishes, Sima Jiu and the others feasted on it.

"The craftsmanship of the shopkeeper is really evocative." Sima Jiu wiped his grease mouth.

"That's right, my sister's craft is famous." Liu Meiniang is also welcome.

"Brother, Sister Lingyun and I are going to stay at Sister Liu's house for a few days." Sima Ruohua put down the dishes and chopsticks and licked his mouth.

"So"

"So, after eating, what should you two do?" Liu Meiniang has no intention of staying guests.

"You ......"

"Or just stay a little longer, it just so happens that these dishes and chopsticks need someone to clean them up." Liu Meiniang smiled evilly and glanced at Sima Jiu and Xia Ruohan.

"Shopkeeper Liu, I'll say goodbye."

There is nothing more painful in the world than washing the dishes after eating.

Sima Jiu naturally didn't do it, pulled Xia Ruohan with him, and fled in embarrassment.

......

Two days later, the new emperor Yang Guang will lead hundreds of civil and military officials to welcome Yang Su's triumph in the suburbs.

Therefore, the imperial capital court is preparing for Yang Su in the suburbs, Dugu Shengli is busy with military affairs, and in the past two days, he will also be entangled with Sima Jiu in the future.

Sima Jiu, as the head of Dali Temple, solved the vampire demon case, and basically got the approval of the Yang family, and when Yang Su returned, he would be arranged to enter Qinghe Mansion.

Xia Ruohan is considered to be Sima Jiu's person, in order to help solve the bloodsampire demon case, he was promoted to the Ming Law from the Bapin Dali Temple, this position is an important position in Dali Temple, if there is a Shangguan to take care of it, the future is limitless.

He was excited, and after following Sima Jiu for less than half a month, he not only entered the office, but also became an official of the imperial court from the eighth grade, and his future naturally went without saying.

Sima Jiu saw that Xia Ruohan was very happy with the work of Dali Temple, so he didn't mention the matter of bringing him to Yang Sumen.

......

and state.

Yang Su returned to the dynasty and succeeded Yang Su's Dugu Sheng, who went all out to besiege the city of Bingzhou occupied by the Han king.

Yang Liang, the king of Han, knew that the general situation was gone, so he opened the city and surrendered.

Wang Fei, the chief strategist under the command of King Han, may have changed his life trajectory because of the appearance of Sima Jiu.

Unwilling to surrender, he defected to the Turks and disappeared into the northern frontier of the empire.

Yang Liang, the king of Han, only opened the city and surrendered after Yang Su left, largely because Yang Su was not in the besieging army.

The king of Han raised troops in the name of 'punishing Yang Su, Qing Jun's side', and if he surrendered to Yang Su, his life and death are unknown.

Now, Dugu Sheng controls the military and political affairs of the state, he opens the city and surrenders, and his life may be safe, after all, the Dugu family is also a relative, so he will naturally not be killed.

It's just that most of the imperial troops in the state to quell the rebellion are Yang Su's old troops, and Dugusheng can't do everything as he wants.

Now, after this battle, the lives of the state have been devastated, and the wounded soldiers and refugees can be seen everywhere in the city, which seems to be a little chaotic.

After surrendering, the king of Han was settled in a simple courtyard in the north of the city of Bingzhou, guarded by hundreds of Dugu Sheng's guards day and night.

The Blood Moon Killer Group, which King Han relied on the most, has fallen apart.

Yuejun, the leader of the blood moon, fought with the Buddhist child, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

The Left Protector of the Blood Moon, Black Impermanence, was shot by the Turkic Squeero.

The right protector of the Blood Moon, Bai Wuchang, has greatly reduced his power due to the use of blood transformation and has disappeared.

And the grassroots strength of the Blood Moon was almost completely lost in the process of following the Han King to confront the empire.

In recent days, the King of Han has lived in torment every day, waiting for the will of the imperial capital, and his hair has almost turned white.

By his side, there was only one member of the Blood Moon who often avoided Dugu Sheng's personal guards and protected him, the Left Prison Officer of the Blood Moon.

In autumn, it gets colder and colder in the northland.

At the time of the third watch at night, the king of Han, who had not yet fallen asleep, was still hesitating in the courtyard.

Although the night breeze in the north is cool, the king of Han is not afraid of the cold because of his martial arts.

It's just that he feels cold about his future.

If he can return to the imperial capital, with his understanding of his brother Yang Guang, he will definitely be safe.

However, it is not easy to return to the imperial capital.
