Cao Qing played with the short sword as she walked, feeling that this was a very special forging technique, and the steel sound of hitting the sword body with her fingers was very peculiar. I must leave it to Lao Luo Dad to study the characteristics of such forging, and then return the sword to that fool.

Cao Qing also saw that there were fast-paced and busy people everywhere here, who had been staying in Western Xia these days, and now they inevitably felt very unfamiliar with it.

The internal changes in the Song Kingdom are too great, especially in several important industrial towns, and the people are really improving their lives, which is simply another world compared to three years ago.

In the years before the rise of the gods, people had little food and clothing every winter, no matter how hard the government tried, there were always frozen bones every year, and people in the slums would find a few fewer familiar faces every spring. This is not an exaggeration, but the fairy tale of the little bell in Funing County in the northwest at that time.

Now, the playmates of the little bell are doing very well. Before coming to the Daimyo's Mansion, Cao Qing specially entered from Funing County, and saw that the children who followed the little bell to curl up at the gate of the city to play the sun and sometimes dig out the bird's nest had grown up a lot.

Those children are not too energetic, but I heard that one of the oldest soldiers joined the volunteer army, and two are studying in the Funing County School and are about to graduate. The other three are already working, the income is not very high but they can eat enough, and they married at a young age.

Then there are two girls who are also married now, and they have a good life, when Cao Qing went to the old town of Funing County, she saw the two familiar girls drying fish and drying clothes in the yard. The home has also been newly furnished.

Every time I see these Cao Qing, I think of back then, the evil demon king hardened his father, the follow-up war against bandits, and the envoy Xixia won a respite buffer of one or two years by means of "shameless death", etc., Cao Qing felt that he believed him back then, and he really believed it.

It's not perfect, but he's a traitor like him who can do this, it's okay.

But the hatefulness of the Great Demon King made Cao Qing speechless, he could turn a simple beauty into an evil awe-inspiring one. Yes, after cultivating demons in the Dao Heart, Miss Cao became more and more cynical and a little evil. And the Great Demon King himself is a villain, but he has become fond of pretending, and the trace of conscience in his heart is growing, which is called the Demon Heart.

Now Miss Cao is full of funny thoughts, as a once very holy Taoist aunt, there is no answer to where my mother will end up for the time being.

Thoughtfully came to the prefect's yamen, took a deep breath, and was a little excited to see the shameless person who was about to die, and at the same time she was at a loss.

"Stop! Which unit! How dare you approach with a sword! "The Great Demon King's new guards didn't know Miss Cao, so they intercepted one after another.

"You fools are coming to arrest me."

Cao Qing has really changed, and with a bold look, she went to the head of the room.

From this point on, the prefect's yamen fell into a state of chaos, shouting everywhere "catch assassins and protect your lordship......

Fujiwara Mitsuko's mouth was half open, and she was so surprised that she wanted to bow down.

Today, I'm in a good mood and the weather is good, so I dressed up and wore a kimono to show my charm, and talk to the Great Demon King about authorizing the sale of armed sea ships.

During the whole conversation, Fujiwara Mitsuko was simply impressed, listening to the handsome and spicy Wang Yan lupine scarf, talking and laughing, pointing out the country, and explaining countless novel insights, Fujiwara Mitsuko was really fascinated and impressed, and felt that he was a mentor who was even greater than Li Jing. At least the Great Demon King speaks more down-to-earth than Li Jing, and is much more handsome than Li Jing.

To Fujiwara Mitsuko's surprise, when he heard someone outside shouting "Catch the assassin", the Great Demon King suddenly fell to the ground, ignoring the kimono beauty, without the slightest samurai spirit, running faster than a rabbit, and hiding under the bed with a few flashes of godlike steps.

And there is a mechanism under the bed, which is closed like a small bunker, and in a small opening, the barrel of a flintlock pistol sticks out and moves around, which seems to be the Great Demon King looking for a target inside.

"He's really enough. The previous information is still reliable, this is a talented scumbag, not a righteous man. ”

Fujiwara Mitsuko's mouth was half-open, but she couldn't raise her disgust for him.

It's really strange that he is the only one in the world who can do this without being hated, and there is no one else.

At the same time, Fujiwara Mitsuko was very nervous, Yanagi was a master, she wasn't it, as the daughter of the Japanese Prime Minister, she was definitely a death-scared existence, so she hurriedly ran over and kicked the door of the small bunker and said: "Your Royal Highness, let me in, open the door quickly." ”

Da Yan said inside: "There is a chance that opening the door will put me in danger, Sister Guangzi should not panic, I have many enemies, they are coming at me, nothing to do with you." Those who dare to do something to me are human spirits and will not deal with you. At least if I were an assassin and I would never kill you if no one was paying, and you were to kill me. ”

"You ......"

Fujiwara Mitsuko didn't expect his temperance anymore, her heartbeat increased suddenly, and she almost peed her pants when she heard the chaotic footsteps coming closer.

No, not almost closely, it was really a little wet down there, so he cried and shouted, "Let me in!" ”

"Well, if you die, you're dead, I know that it's really bad to be with a woman by your side." Wang Yan really couldn't see death without help, so he had to take the risk of opening the steel door of the small bunker again.

But Fujiwara Mitsuko was not as dexterous as Wang Yan, who had cultivated the Divine Steps, and he couldn't get in in time, and cried anxiously: "Oops, my ass is too big and stuck, Your Highness quickly pull me, your bunker is too unreasonable." ”

"It was designed for me, and I didn't think about letting a woman with such big buttocks in."

Wang Yan dragged her from the inside as he spoke, and after all his strength, he finally dragged the young lady into the bunker, and then closed the steel door of the bunker at the same time as the door was pushed open.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your protection...... Although you left me behind, you still have a clear conscience at the critical moment, and you took the risk to open the door to save me, and I am very grateful. "Fujiwara Photon jumps very fast in the dark center.

Da Yan was very obscene at something, and then found that it was Miss Cao, who had not been seen for a long time, who had come in?

I don't know if she's crazy, and a group of guards want to kill her indiscriminately, so Mu Guiying, who came later, stopped the farce.

Now it's stable, Otsumi retracted the gun, didn't say anything, and continued to stay with Fujiwara Mitsuko in this small and dark space, still pretending to protect her.

Finding that Fujiwara Mitsuko was trembling, Oshiki said, "Don't be afraid, everything is with me." He deliberately shouted to the outside: "Assassin, no matter who you are, you can only kill me before you can harm the people I protect." ”

“？” Fujiwara Mitsuko felt very unscientific, why did the Great Demon King suddenly become so bushido again?

I don't know what the hell he's doing, but this kind of moment is not suspicious of any woman, as if every heartbeat is enjoyable. The last time she touched her face, Fujiwara Mitsuko felt creepy, but now she is close to him, although she doesn't know what her fate is, she is really moved, and I hope it will take a long time.

“……”

Cao Qing had a close relationship with him at a certain distance, and now he was even a little jealous, feeling that he was starting to die shamelessly again. So he strode over to the edge of the bed, kicked the bunker a few times, and said, "You're pretending to be forced again, hurry up and come out to welcome me home." ”

Wang Yan in the bunker has a black line on her face, she is actually puzzled and does not cooperate with Lao Tzu's heroic script to save the United States? Don't know how to play on the spot?

Fujiwara Mitsuko asked, "So Your Highness knows her?" ”

Wang Yan said forcefully in the bunker: "I recognized her, but the situation was tense just now, and I didn't recognize her." ”

He said to the outside again: "It turned out that Miss Cao came home, I was startled, I haven't seen it for a long time, but I didn't recognize it in time." ”

In this case, he can force himself to break blindly? But Cao Qing doesn't want to expose his cattiness for the second time, forget it, let's be more tolerant of him, when I think of the group of "little bells" in Funing County, the big demon king is still very cute on the whole, on the contrary, there are fewer and fewer hateful times.

"It's me, it's wrong to frighten Xianggong Cao Qing, please come out." Cao Qing had no choice but to say so.

So I opened the door and sat down with Fujiwara Mitsuko.

Fujiwara Mitsuko is very curious about a woman like Cao Qing, and wants to keep it to listen to the gossip between her and the big demon king, which is very attractive, but it's a pity to go back to the post house to take a shower and change clothes, after all, it's wet below, and the weather is hot, so if there is a smell leaking out, it will be embarrassing and embarrassing.

So the kimono sister got up and made a special etiquette: "It will not affect His Highness and acquaintances to catch up, and Mitsuko will come to visit again in the evening." ”

Without waiting for the Great Demon King to answer, Cao Qing said, "Don't come at night, come back during the day." And don't scream, I only have His Royal Highness's blood, he doesn't. ”

Wang Yan said embarrassedly: "The cognition is different, it's just a title, and people at a certain level in their country call it that." Speaking of which, I haven't been busy lately lately. ”

In the blink of an eye, Fujiwara Mitsuko didn't care about these anymore, looked at Cao Qing's hand and exclaimed: "Why is the sword of my samurai Yanagi in your hand, what happened to you?" ”

“？” Cao Qing originally thought that he had fooled a fool and borrowed a treasure knife, but he didn't want to be a friend of the Great Demon King.

So I had to give it back to her: "Okay, take it and return it to him, your bodyguard is not very good, soft-footed shrimp, he took the initiative to give it to me." ”

Sent Fujiwara Mitsuko away, Cao Qing looked at him and said curiously: "Why did you forget that I was still in Western Xia and didn't recruit me back?" ”

"It's not that I forgot. I'm still afraid that something will happen to the Empress Dowager and destroy the internal balance of Western Xia. That's why I didn't call you back for a long time. Did you run back on your own? Wang Yan said.

Cao Qing didn't want to find him to be coquettish, and she couldn't beat him as a vent, so she was very uncomfortable and said: "The balance can't be broken, now no one in Xingqing Mansion believes in King Ming, the name of the national teacher is not there, and there is no slander Pang is now mainly aimed at the bear child Li Liangzuo, and the balance will not be easily broken, so I came back by myself." I thought it would be too late for me to come back and you would be happy. ”

"Now that I'm famous, how can I be too late to be happy to see a beautiful woman." Wang Yan said.

"Then what are you doing hiding under the bed with that maid?" Cao Qing said.

"That's the need of the situation, if you really want to do anything, it's clearly in bed and not under the bed, don't ruin my reputation." Wang Yan said.

"......" Cao Qing also felt that what he said made sense.

In addition, Miss Cao unexpectedly sensed: He said that he would not mess around when he got married, but he was sincere?

It's strange that this shameless man really obeys the rules set by his wife.

This made Cao Qing feel that he was a very remarkable person. It is impossible for him to become a saint in all of them, he has a contradictory mentality, he is really in awe, and if he is not subjected to extreme sexual temptation, he should be able to abide by it with a high probability. Cao Qing thinks so.

"You've really changed a lot." Cao Qing said with emotion.

"But you're an evil bastard right now." Speaking of this, Wang Yan poured her a cup of tea, handed it to her, and said, "Welcome home, you treat my place as home, which makes me feel very sad." ”

Cao Qing was really thirsty, and she felt very sweet when she drank the water he poured, and she was very satisfied with his "welcome home".

"What's next?" Wang Yan said.

"Isn't that asking you?" Cao Qing said.

Wang Yan said: "I am neither your relative, nor are you from the government, how can you ask me." ”

Cao Qing tilted her head and thought for a while: "Whatever, I'll stay by your side for a while, and then go to the south to see the situation in Manichaeism, I heard that Liu Ningjing was resurrected and made trouble in the south?" ”

Wang Yan said: "You also know about her? ”

"Of course I do." Cao Qing said: "Why do you think it was so easy for Wen Yanbo to quell the rebellion in Beizhou back then? That was my master personally leading the eight masters of the Daomen, trapping Liu Ningjing's master and all the masters under his command to death in Leiya Peak. ”

"Well, your master is not a good person, but he has merit in suppressing extreme religions." Wang Yan touched his chin and said, "In this way, you and I will draw the line and introduce the blue rain to your master, and see if your master is interested in going to the Sea of Stars to learn about the old monster of the stars?" ”

Cao Qing said: "If he is interested, the Star Sea is a branch of the Ethereal Peak, and he is a traitor to the Tongtian Sect." But my master is not so stupid and will not help you. Now he is concentrating on getting rid of those pagans in Jiangnan, such as Liu Ningjing, such as Manichaeism, so something big will happen to Jiangnan sooner or later at some point. ”

"How do you know if you don't want to know about the old monster of the stars if you don't try it?" "Let me tell you, human nature determines that extreme religions treat heretics much more harshly than infidels. ”

"However, my master is not an extreme religion in your concept." Cao Qing said.

Wang Yan had to say embarrassedly: "Okay, the moderates are also the same, for example, myself, I actually don't hate the Liao State or the Western Xia, but I can't stand the heresy in my own ranks." ”

"There's some truth to what you're saying. But you can't fool me, you're not a moderate at all, you're an extremist. Cao Qing said.

"If you don't agree, forget it. I'm not going to force you, I'm not going to be angry with you. Wang Yan said.

Cao Qing said: "Do you really trust Wuqiang Lanyu? ”

Wang Yan tilted his head and thought for a moment and said, "I don't believe it, but it's not important. It doesn't affect me to defeat the sea of stars, and if they are in Tibet, sooner or later there will be chaos. And I don't like to make trouble, I like to have a stable environment to do business, so that everyone can gradually improve their lives and establish rules and order together. ”

Cao Qing said: "Is it like what you meant when you fought against the Northwest Cow Ghost and Snake God?" ”

"Uh-huh, pretty much a nature." Wang Yan said.

"Okay, I don't need my master's help, I'll cultivate for a while, and then I'll go to the Sea of Stars to learn about that little monster." Cao Qing said.

Da Yan was a little worried about this, and wanted to keep her by her side to nourish her eyes, but she also knew in her heart that Xingzhuhai, as a branch of the "Human Sect", was the best at demagoguery, and Cao Qing was exempt from all evil aura, and it was indeed more suitable for her to go than Zhanzhao.

Cao Qing got up and said before leaving: "I'll tell you another news, the Empress Dowager asked me to bring you a message, she said to let you go to Xingqing Mansion when you have time to sit and see her." This is not an invitation from Western Xia, she said that it is a friend and Taoist friend to catch up. ”

Inevitably, Da Yan looked at the ceiling again and thought about it......
