Where is this?

…… It's so dark......

I can only vaguely see the ground......

Feel like you're drifting......

Body...... I can't use my strength, I can't lift my hands down, and I don't feel anything in my legs......

The ground covered with thick fallen leaves swirled in front of me, and the body was so light that it seemed that I could still see a wisp of clothes, but I couldn't see my feet......

A gust of wind blew, but Ji Huan didn't feel how cold it was. The leaves rustled, and the sound of "whining" could be heard from afar, as if a soul was crying out about his grievances. There is a faint sound of flowing water next to it, and it is like a stream of life under the peerless mountain, and thousands of souls are cleansing themselves of their sins.

"Impermanence? Is this a ghost gate? Ji Huan muttered groggily, "How did I die?" Was it eaten by the evil spirits of the forest? ”

Ji Gongyan, who was carrying Ji Huan leisurely and leisurely walking back, was stunned for a moment, snickered in his heart, and immediately improvized: "You were killed by the king of Zhou." ”

...... "Oh......"

A short answer is a long silence. Ji Gongyan was puzzled and slowed down.

"You...... Don't you ask why he wants to harm you? ”

“…… Anyway, after drinking the soup for a while, I can't remember anything...... "Ji Huan was sad, but she didn't have the strength to cry.

Ji Gongyan secretly felt funny in her heart, this was really a treasure, and she couldn't help but want to tease her.

"Alas, too, the corpse has not escaped the hands of King Zhou......"

Ji Huan's pupils dilated suddenly: "You...... What do you say...... My ......"

Ji Gongyan pinched his throat. "Alas...... The king can't bear that you have just answered the kiss and have not had time to do it, so he suddenly drove to the west, so he will take your body to become a family affair, which shows that he ......is happy."

"Ahh......hh Before listening to what others said, Ji Huan couldn't help but burst out.

"No, no...... This ...... "Ji Gong almost got on his head."

"Nothing! This is a dumb king, a wolf-dog disciple! I'm only three out of ten years old! Even being a ghost is going to be dirty, woo wow wow ......"

"Eh, can you listen to someone finish talking......"

"Woo woo ......"

After relieving for a while, she was so excited by the words that she finally had the strength, but all this strength was used to cry. Tears flowed upside down to the top of the head, wet the green silk, and dripped down again, and the big snot snorted and wiped one by one.

Ji Gongyan couldn't bear to hear the girl crying, and then heard this mixed with a handful of snot and a handful of tears, and his little hand wiped it on his black brocade waist from time to time, which was strange and disgusting, and finally couldn't help it.

"Lie to you! You're not dead! Don't wipe it! With a flick of his backhand, he dropped the Ji Huan he was carrying and hugged him in front of him, "If it's really impermanent, I will wipe your nose on other people's bodies and disrespect others, and you should be sentenced to go to a bloody hell first!" ”

"......" Ji Huan listened, calmed down, knew the identity of the other party and his own situation, and remained silent, although he was a hateful person, but the sentence "not dead" alone can make people feel like they have been reborn.

"Why are you still shaking......" Ji Gongyan didn't suffer from night blindness, seeing the little girl in her arms shrunk into a ball, her upper and lower teeth were fighting, her already white and tender little face was even paler, and a little blue, and her lips were black.

Reaching out and touching Ji Huan's forehead, "Hey, it's really ice." ”

"Just after taking a shower, you just ran away so desperately, what do you say...... " Ji Gongyan stopped, gently put Xi Huan, who was shaking into chaff, under a big tree, took off his long and thick black brocade robe, and covered her. Wearing this thin green, it is not a thing that can protect against the cold, it is the autumn cold, where do you think you can run? As he spoke, he took out a small fire sickle and a small wooden tube, and squatted on the side to "click, click" and busily worked.

Ji Huan was covered with a brocade robe, but he still felt that his body was stiff, his eyes were half-squinted, and he watched small flames shoot out of his hands.

"Under the whole world, if it is not the king's land, you are a woman...... Eh, this velvet is a little damp......" a sound came with the rhythm of the tinkling of the fire sickle. “…… You are a woman, even if you have wings, you can't escape, my palm. ”

(The earliest Rap began in the Western Zhou Dynasty)

"Yo...... It is worthy of being born in a family of emperors with dogs and horses, hiss...... Sure enough, you know the rhythm......"

"It's all frozen like this, and it's still unforgiving...... Whew, all right. ”

Ji Gong Yan held a ball of velvet silk and blew carefully, like holding a fragile butterfly.

A few sticks of dry firewood were piled up in small circles, and the fire lit up little by little, burning more and more, and finally turned into a standard small bonfire. Ji Huan's body slowly became warmer, and her eyes brightened a little, this is her favorite bridge: the lonely knight who wanders the world leans against the tree, and the bonfire next to her occasionally makes a few "crackling" sounds, a mouthful of turbid wine enters her throat, she lowers her hat, and falls asleep soundly with the long sword in her arms.

But...... How can a knight be accompanied by a wandering king?

Ji Gongyan looked at Ji Huan's tangled little expression, and took out a small silver kettle. "Are you thinking about this?"

"......" Ji Huan didn't dare to speak, and at a glance, she knew that this must be used to hold wine, and secretly swallowed saliva.

"I don't know how the Lord taught a daughter who likes wine...... It's not proper to drink alcohol before you leave the cabinet. You say yes, right? Ji Gongyan pursed his lips and smiled, Ji Huan secretly looked at it, he didn't look at it carefully, he only cared about beating and scolding, but now he found that when today's son was born well, his eyebrows and eyes were very good-looking, and his narrow eyes were snickering with a hint of cunning, and his thick sword eyebrows with heroic spirit were slightly raised. It may be that he was born to sit on the dragon chair, and he looks at people with his lower eyelids, and his nostrils can often be seen under the high bridge of his nose, as if he is staring at himself, which is obviously a condescending posture!

It's an old fox!

Ji Huan put away her appreciation, secretly resentful, and did not take into account her height at all.

"Why do you have a fire sickle...... No one has uncovered the pot in the huge Zhou room? Need you to steam rice and cook rice? "Anyway, Ji Huan just wants to use this only mouth as a weapon to shame the man in front of him from all angles.

"I'm a person with a strong sense of crisis, and if I fall into an unfamiliar place one day, I must have a way to eat." Ji Gong Yu is still smiling. "What if I bring a fire sickle? I also know that the ladies of the Baocheng Guoqi Mansion are still a master with chivalrous dreams, and they walk around with a long sword and a hat on their backs all day long. It's a pity that this sword technique is really embarrassing......"

"That's Juanka!! It's not a hat...... A little...... No knowledge at all! Ji Huan didn't say anything about people, and his face immediately turned over.

"Don't be angry, don't be angry, Concubine Ai just finished taking a bath and went to blow this autumn wind, I'm afraid it's easy to catch the wind and cold."

"I'm not your concubine!!" As soon as Ji Huan shouted, his stomach throbbed. “…… In the future, if you dare to call it like that, beware that I gouge out your tongue as a drink! ”

"Oh...... In this way, Huan'er loves me so much, and she wants to have a friend before she is married? ”

"Phew! Cheap ......" Ji Huan suddenly had a sense of the picture, her face flushed, don't look over.

"Now, you are the only one in the world who dares to scold me." Ji Gongyan smiled happily and sat on the ground on one knee. "Do you really think I can't talk about you?"

"I'm afraid that everyone in the world who scolds you has been killed by you. What a tyrant......"

Suddenly there was a sound of small branches rubbing behind him, Ji Gongyan stretched out his right hand and quietly pointed to his mouth, and a figure behind the tree disappeared into the woods in the blink of an eye.

"Oh? The three generations of Kang King Ji Zhao, leveling the east, the north and the west, and slaughtering hundreds of thousands, are they also tyrants? ”

"King Kang...... Quelling rebellion and expanding territory...... Not counted. ”

"Ancestors forgive me for my sins...... Then the founding king of the country first occupied Xiangcheng, and then attacked Yin, and killed back and forth for two days, is it considered a tyrant? ”

"The Founding Saint King, of course, is not a ......"

"It is not allowed to discuss and discuss, keep the people's tongues shut, and count the six crimes of Emperor Xin of Shang, four of which are fabricated, is this considered tyranny?"

"This is to allow the people to live and work in peace and contentment, and to overthrow tyranny ......"

"How do you know about the tyranny of Emperor Sin?" Ji Gongyan got closer and looked at Ji Huan.

Ji Huanliang was speechless for a long time, and looked back at each other: "A brief history." ”

"Repair water conservancy, irrigate with fertile land, and build high cities to prevent barbarism. Change the subordinate system, with the hearts of the common people, to win against Nanrong, and to secure the country. Do you think these are all sins? There is also a folk legend that Prime Minister Bigan was dug out of his heart, but the tomb of Bigan has a death year that is eleven years longer than the Shang Dynasty......"

Ji Huan was startled and opened her mouth slightly. "You...... You are the son of Zhou Tianzi today, sitting in the country...... How can such a great rebellion be made?! ”

Ji Gongyan was not surprised by her reaction: "That's right, so you can't let the people know all the details, not to mention that the previous dynasty had a mixed reputation, no matter how diligent and loving the people were, you have to be famous, so you have to put on a few hats." By now, the crimes of Emperor Xin have reached me, and they have become thirteen. ”

"And...... Every king thinks about the people, even if he shows them his heart, there will always be some people who are dissatisfied. Some are dissatisfied, some are dissatisfied...... And some of them just don't like you. Ji Gongyan dragged a handful of dead branches and broke them into two pieces and threw them into the fire, with a little loneliness on his face. If the lifeline of the Great Zhou is cut off in my hands, the people who come after me don't know what kind of sin will be placed on me......"

Ji Huan hugged his shoulders and secretly observed Ji Gongyan. "Then have you ever thought about being a son of heaven who is praised by all peoples? Now it is rumored that you ignore the government and politics, are mediocre, and reuse the ministers......"

"Have you ever seen a minister who can move the three armies at will with a state order in his hand? How many people do you think I'm a genius can lead with one sentence now? ”

"That's ......"

"Hugh has to mention this name, you and I know the person who is talking about it......" Ji Gongyu stretched out his index finger and pressed Ji Huan's lips, warm and soft.

"My father has been promoted to the position of Shangqing during the reign of King Xuan, three generations of words, deeply rooted in the court, the relationship network is intertwined, I am a 'little highness' who has just ascended the throne......" Speaking of this, looking at Ji Huan and smiling slightly, Ji Huan remembered his scolding words, and was a little ashamed. The Son of Heaven who has just ascended the throne, how can he fight him? I can't even pull out the henchmen, the Flying Tiger Festival is in the hands of others, and I take my life to play with the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces? ”

Ji Huan took his finger away, and the curiosity in his innocent apricot eyes couldn't be stopped: "I don't believe that all the officials of heaven and earth, the Spring and Autumn Period are his henchmen." ”

"Yes, there must be good ministers who dare to speak out. For example, your uncle ......"

"Then you still arrest him and imprison him for more than two years!!" Ji Huan almost jumped.

"So what can I do?" Ji Gongyan spread his hands. "First, Bao Jue's words were said loudly in front of hundreds of officials in the court, originally his voice was loud, but all of a sudden the whole court stared at him, as if he was going to die, and a few words were all aimed at that person, I am not stupid, round and round, of course, it is impossible to do what he said on the spot. Second...... He said a little too much, even I nodded my head together, every sentence was like a knife, I was lucky to be able to keep him from being eliminated on the spot, and I could only put on a hard-hearted attitude of ignoring state affairs and imprisoning him. ”

"What about you...... Now it's a son of heaven who has been set aside?? Ji Huan asked tentatively.

Ji Gongyan waved his hand: "It's not overhead, after all, two of the three princes and six secretaries are still my henchmen, no matter how I say it, I am also the king." But now don't look at the people who are just the head of the six kings, but the status of the DPRK and China is higher than Yu Youjin, he said a word, others dare not take over, and having military power in his hand is hard, so few other high-ranking positions stand in line with me, and more are people in the same stream. ”

"That's why this time I came to attack Baocheng...... Was it his idea? ”

"That's what I meant."

"You ......" Ji Huan originally subconsciously thought in a good direction, but she didn't want to add another wave of anger, and her heart ached faintly. Are you sick?! ”

"Originally, I wanted to be a personal favor and let Uncle Jue go, and I specially asked someone to tell your cousin several times, but this person was dead-eyed and didn't agree. When that person heard the news, he wanted to please me and make a pretense, so he ......"

After that, Ji Gongyan handed out the wine jug again, "Drink it, it's not poisonous." ”

Ji Huan took the flask, pulled out the stopper and didn't smell it, and took a sip.

"Even if there is no such thing, I will come to marry you."

Ji Huan pinched the flask and was stunned.

"People get married, red satin paves the way, thousands of miles to welcome relatives, where am I? 30,000 soldiers and horses, fighting for three days and five places...... You're ......."

"Because, I like you. So lock you up and make it my own. ”

"Su Wei Pingsheng, so why do I like you?" Ji Huan frowned, this way of confession was not quite to her liking, it was a little weird. "Just by the good things you've done these days??"

"Heh, it's quite difficult to be satisfied, little girl, I am the king, the king of Da Zhou. You can admit whoever you want to enter the palace, and you have to laugh at whoever you want to laugh, and you still have the power to do so. His fingers flexed slightly, and he gently scratched Xi Huan's little nose. The name sounds very thin, but how can people be so thin......"

Ji Huan slapped his big hand away, "Don't think that I will sympathize with you if you say something pitiful, I was almost ruined by you." How? Do you want to say, 'It's just a war of revenge'? ”

Ji Gongyan looked at Ji Huan playfully, "It's just a feud of war, why bother?" ”

"It's so shameless!!"

"Laugh one, I want to see it."

"No!"

"That's it, it's all mine."

"Roll !!"

"Yo, it's still a little grumpy."

Grunting, Ji Huan's stomach rang very uncomfortably.

I wanted to be a righteous and unyielding warrior, but I was stopped by hunger and cold.

Ji Huan blushed and hung her head.

"Hungry?" Himenomiya asked lazily. "Would you like to try some game?"

"You...... What else can you go back and hunt with your chef? ”

"Not really, but there's ready-made, you see." Ji Gongyan pointed with his sword in his right hand, and when he poked up, a pheasant fell from the sky.

"Whew." Blows the hand. "Being able to die under the fingers of my broken army is also your creation."

"Uh-huh?!!!!" Ji Huan's eyes widened in surprise. "What kind of kung fu is this?!"

"This is a magic skill that has been passed down from generation to generation in my Ji family, breaking the military finger, and killing people invisibly a hundred feet away." Ji Gongyan looked at Ji Huan's expression proudly, very satisfied. "Of course, it's okay to hit a chicken."

"You...... Aren't you kidding me......" Ji Huan carefully poked the pheasant that fell from the sky with a wooden stick. "How can there be such an evil kung fu in the world......"

"It's up to you to believe it or not."

Ji Gongyan looked up at the treetops and cast an approving look.

Cangji, good boy, really have a tacit understanding, worthy of being my personal guard.

"But...... This...... Can you still feather a pheasant? Ji Huan raised his head and looked indifferently into Ji Gongyan's eyes.

"Uh...... This...... Right!! This is a unique stunt, breaking the military finger, and if you hit this trick, you will not only be killed on the spot...... Belch...... There will be...... Hair loss...... Shedding!! "Ji Gong said secretly, no, how can this be completed...... Looking up at the treetops again, this time gritting his teeth.

Cangji, do you really think I'm an idiot?! Hunting and traveling for so many years will not pluck pheasants?!

The cangji on the tree was so frightened that he didn't dare to come out, who would have thought that you would come to this hand, and I wasn't ready enough to react quickly?

"It's really a terrible kung fu......" Ji Huan touched her hair...... I was a little afraid that if he had used this trick in the big tent at that time...... Wouldn't you be a bald girl when you die? The death is too ugly......

Ji Gong sighed, scared to death, this little girl is really easy to fool.

"That'...... How are you going to cook it......" asked Hi Huan timidly.

"You're a woman, didn't anyone teach you how to cook or anything??"

"No...... I've only learned pastry......"

Of course, the young lady of a big family doesn't have to study the art of the kitchen stove so early, Ji Gongyan deliberately asked like this, just to show off herself.

"Hmph, voila." After that, he picked up a few sturdy branches, broke them and made two stands, and neatly skewered the chickens and put them on the fire.

"Normally, you have to brush some oil, but if you don't have it at hand, you have to keep rotating the grill to prevent it from getting burned."

"Oh oh......" Ji Huan looked at as if he didn't understand.

"Don't look at the original cooking method." Ji Gong squinted triumphantly. "Roast chicken is divided into three categories: upper, middle and lower."

“……”

"Wait now, after roasting, the skin is charred and the meat is hard, and the meat inside is woody, and it is very unpalatable."

"Medium, the skin is not charred, but the meat has no texture, and the taste is acceptable but lacks heat."

"It's superior."

"Goo", Ji Huan swallowed a big mouthful of saliva uncontrollably.

"This is superb, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, the skin is crisp, but fragrant but not greasy, and the thick chicken skin is baked into a thin layer. The meat inside, the juice has not been roasted, the aroma is tangy, and you can eat a bite of crispy skin, and the whole body is fragrant. When you bite into the meat, you will have a lingering aftertaste. ”

Ji Gongyan shook his head and explained to Ji Huan while turning the grill.

"How? Am I still sick? Or is it the tyrant who only knows how to kill and fight? ”

"No, no, no."

blurted out three "no" in a row, so fast that Ji Gongyan didn't react.

Looking at the big dull eyes that were reflected in the flames and staring directly at the food, I secretly rejoiced.

This time, I've finally caught your real weakness......

The wind stopped, and only the crackling of firewood and the small, chewing sound of food could be heard, as if the whole outside world had stopped.

"Seriously...... It's a shame that you don't go to the dining room to teach your skills......"

"I'm a great man...... Forget it, don't talk, eat it......"
