Chapter Ninety-Eight: A Small Border Town

The day before Fen Yang and Prince Jian returned to Yingdu, Hu Tu also returned to Yingdu and met with King Chuping. When the crown prince Jian wanted to enter the palace again and ask to see him, King Chuping refused to see him.

On this day, the crown prince Jian received an order from the king of Chu Ping, in order to prevent the Jin state from attacking the Chu state in the south, he specially sent the prince to the small city of Chu on the border of Jin and Chu - the city father to guard it, and Fen Yang was the city father Sima, and assisted the prince to build troops and build the city wall. Prince Jian was shocked and puzzled when he received such an order. How good is the world of flowers in Yingdu, who wants to go to a small city over there, where birds don't, and they also have to fight with the people of Jin and Wu from time to time. Besides, King Chuping had already promised him that he would go to the city father after he married Ying Yi, how could it be advanced now?

Prince Jian ran to the Slender Waist Palace again to see King Chu Ping, and wanted to plead with his father to take back the king's life, but when he arrived outside the gate of the Slender Waist Palace, he was stopped by the guards guarding the door. The crown prince had no choice, so he went to his teacher Wu Hao again, explaining that he didn't want to go to the city father, and asked Wu Hao to think of a way to intercede with his father.

Wu Hao had already guessed that this matter must be Fei Wuji's doing, and he said to the prince: "The prince must not be in a hurry, now that the king is bewitched by Fei Wuji, no one's opinion can be listened to." If the prince disobeys the order and does not go to the city father, he will be caught by Fei Wuji and sued you for the crime of disloyalty and filial piety. ”

The prince said: "Then what should I do, my father doesn't see me, teacher, I don't want to go to the city father." ”

Wu Hao said: "There must be a reason why the king doesn't see you, at the moment, the prince can only go to the city father first, and then think about it in the long run." The old man secretly visited Yingdu, and at every opportunity, he would persuade the king to let the prince come back early. ”

"Teacher, you have to hurry!" Prince Jian then said hatefully: "Fei Wuji, I will definitely not let you go." ”

"Prince, I taught you to be careful when you speak, and to think twice about everything." Wu Hao said: "I believe that if the king finds out that he is wrong, he will definitely recall the prince." ”

"Alright, that's it, I'll go first." The prince built like a chicken in the water, and returned to the prince's mansion stupidly.

The prince was bored in the center of the mansion, and he didn't want to find someone to talk to to relieve his worries, so he thought that he would go to the city father with Fen Yang in the near future, so it was better to talk to him about what to do after arriving at the city father. On the way to Fenyang's house, Prince Jian passed by Fei Wuji's mansion and saw Fenyang wandering not far from the door. Just a few days ago, for some reason, Kong Wan'er moved back to Fei Wuji's mansion in Yingdu. Prince Jian saw that Fen Yang was depressed, and Fen Yang was unhappy when he saw Prince Jian, and the two looked at each other and knew that they were both frustrated people in the world. None of them spoke, but found a tavern, and each of them expressed their hearts and drank to kill their sorrows.

Prince Jian left, and Fei Wuji returned.

Fei Wuji and King Chuping talked about late at night in the Slender Waist Palace, and when he left, King Chuping personally sent Fei Wuji to the door of the Slender Waist Palace, which was the first time that Xiong Qiji sent his ministers down to the door of the Slender Waist Palace after becoming the King of Chu.

Fei Wuji bowed deeply to King Chuping: "King, don't forget your promise. ”

King Chu Ping said: "If you can do this, I will give it to you." ”

Fei Wuji smiled secretly and said, "Don't worry, the king will not disappoint him." ”

Kong Wan'er lives alone in an empty room, and tonight she changed into a light new dress, with light yellow flowers inlaid on a light blue background, which looks particularly fresh and refined. Hearing that Fei Wuji was back, Kong Wan'er felt a burst of joy and excitement in her heart, and she got up to greet her, when she suddenly remembered her father and Wei Chong, and she sat back on the edge of the bed.

Fei Wuji pushed open the door, and a ray of moonlight entered the room and sprinkled it on Kong Wan'er's face, coupled with her frowning and thoughtful appearance, it looked even more touching. Fei Wuji saw. Feeling moved in his heart, he walked over, sat down next to Kong Wan'er, and said softly: "Wan'er, everyone said that I killed your father, do you believe it too?" Kong Wan'er bowed her head and said nothing, her eyes began to be rosy. This is the first time Fei Wuji has called her Wan'er since the separation of Chaoge City, she has no power to think about who killed her father, she has already acquiesced that it was the work of the son, and now what she cares about is Fei Wuji's sincerity to herself. Fei Wuji said again: "If you also believe the words of the people, I killed your father, and now you will stab me to death with this Shadow Sword." After speaking, he handed the Chengying Sword to Kong Wan'er.

Kong Wan'er didn't pick it up, she couldn't stop shaking her head, tears spilling on her new clothes, moistening the small yellow flowers on it, making it more delicate. Fei Wuji continued: "I have asked the king to leave Yingdu, go to the city father to live idlely, give up all the current glory, return to the mountains and forests, and do not ask about the world. I want to take you with me and live the rest of our lives quietly, would you like to? ”

Kong Wan'er suddenly burst into tears, and hugged Fei Wuji, this is what she wants, to be with her beloved, no rivers and lakes, no enmity, only affection, quiet life, watching the clouds and light wind, sunrise and sunset. Kong Wan'er waited too long for Fei Wuji's words, and she nodded frequently: "I am willing, I am willing!" I'm sure you won't kill my father, that's what Childe did. I don't care what the world says, as long as you and I treat it sincerely, it's enough. ”

Fei Wuji said: "Do you remember what I said to you, I want to give you another wedding." Let's choose a good day after we go to the city father and get married again, do you say? ”

"Do what you say, I'll listen to you." Kong Wan'er said with tears of happiness.

Fei Wuji didn't speak again, and he hugged Kong Wan'er tighter. Kong Wan'er's heartbeat was accelerating, her breathing was getting tighter and tighter every time, and she was almost out of breath. Suddenly, a trace of coolness slipped across her skin, Fei Wuji untied her clothes, her green shirt slipped off, her fragrant shoulders were leaking, and her ice muscles and jade bones were absolutely beautiful. As a red rope was untied, Kong Wan'er shouted in her heart: "No, no, no......" but she didn't resist and complied.

The next day, Fei Wuji didn't say hello to anyone and took Kong Wan'er to the city father. They stayed in an inn first, and after settling down, Fei Wuji said that he had something to go out, and that he would come back in the evening. Kong Wan'er said goodbye to Fei Wuji: "Brother Fei, you go and do your own business, don't worry about me, I will take care of myself." Fei Wuji smiled slightly, turned his head and went out.

For several days in a row, Fei Wuji went out early and returned late every day, and he never told Kong Wan'er what to do. At first, Kong Wan'er could understand that when she first arrived in the city, her father would have some things to do, but after so many days, she should have an eyebrow about what to do, but she didn't know anything, and her heart was always empty.

One day, Kong Wan'er couldn't bear it anymore. After Fei Wuji came back that night, Kong Wan'er asked, "Since you came to the city father, you have been going out early and returning late every day, and we can't say a few words, and you don't tell me what you are going to do." I know I shouldn't ask you what you do, but we are husband and wife, and every time you go out these days, I am always afraid in my heart, for fear that you will not come back that day, and leave me here alone, and no one cares. After saying that, tears rolled down his shirt.

Fei Wuji held Kong Wan'er's hand and said: "The reason why I didn't tell you was because I was afraid that you would worry about me, and it would be self-defeating if you didn't want to, I told you today: We came from Yingdu, and we didn't bring much money. But I don't have anything in the city, and I need to spend money everywhere. Since we are going to stay together for the rest of our lives, I have to earn money to support my family. A few days ago, I finally found a job as a martial artist, in a merchant family, and the money given to us every month was enough for the two of us to live in the city. These days, I go out early and return late at night, and I teach boxing and foot kung fu at that house. ”

When Kong Wan'er heard Fei Wuji say this, she was very relieved in her heart, knowing that she was wrong to blame him. So the girl's heart rose, and she didn't want to take the initiative to admit her mistake, so she said angrily: "Who told you not to say it earlier, it will make people worry." It's too hard for you to be out there alone, so why don't I go out tomorrow and find a job to do, even if it's laundry and weaving for others. ”

Fei Wuji said: "How can my Fei Wuji woman do that kind of rough work, you just stay here, you don't have to do anything, I will support you." ”

Kong Wan'er was moved to tears again, and said: "I can't bear you running around alone, when will we have our own home, Brother Fei!" ”

Fei Wuji said: "Wan'er, don't worry, it will be soon." In a few days, the big merchant asked me to escort a batch of rare goods to the Qin State, and after the matter was completed, he would give me a large sum of money, enough to buy a big mansion in the city, and I would marry you again at that time. ”

Kong Wan'er was happy and worried, and said: "Brother Fei, I don't need any luxury house, as long as there is a thatched hut in the mountains and forests, a small river in front of it, green grass and green grass, and coarse tea and light rice every day, as long as you are there, I will be satisfied." ”

Fei Wuji said: "Having said that, I said that if you have another wedding, it must be better than in Yingdu, and it can't be done without coins." After we get married, if you don't like to live in the city, it's not too late for us to move to the mountains and forests. ”

Kong Wan'er said: "Brother Fei, I listen to you." It's a long way to Qin, and there are dangers along the way, so you have to be careful, but you have to come back safely. ”

Fei Wuji said: "Don't you know my martial arts, just with this Chengying Sword in my hand, there are few people in the world who can help me, don't worry, wait for me to come back." ”

Kong Wan'er said: "I know that you are good at martial arts, so it's better to be careful." When to go, I'll give you something to apply along the way. ”

Fei Wuji said: "Set off in three days, at least fifteen days, and at most a month to come back." Fei Wuji took out two bags of coins and put them on the table, and said: "This bag is Chu coins, and this bag is Qi coins, which is enough for your expenses for two months. ”

Kong Wan'er looked at Fei Wuji, this person was going away again, and she was going to be alone in the empty boudoir. Suddenly, a desolation came to her heart, stepped forward, hugged Fei Wuji, and cried: "I only hope that you will come back soon, and never leave me again, don't leave me." ”

Fei Wuji stroked Kong Wan'er's hair and said softly, "No, never again." His voice was a little choked, and Fei Wuji shed tears for the first time.

After Fei Wuji left, Crazy Wan'er stayed in the guest room all day long, bored. On this day, the sun was shining outside the window, the clouds were light and the wind was light, and the southern geese were flying high. Looking at such good weather, Kong Wan'er's mood was much happier, she freshened up, and went to the street to relax, and bought some application things by the way.

Although the city father is a small border city, it is small and fine, the transportation is convenient, the merchants gather, the streets in the city are vertical and horizontal, the shops are numerous, people come and go, and it is bustling. Kong Wan'er walked down the street, looking at this, looking at that, looking at everything fresh, very happy.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the streets, and the crowd fled to the sidelines. Kong Wan'er saw that there were more than a dozen big men embracing a teenager and walking from the middle of the street. The young man was no more than fifteen or sixteen years old, with a thin face, dressed in fine clothes, and his eyes narrowed into a slit, and he looked at the crowd on both sides with disapproval.

Kong Wan'er said in her heart: There are also such gentlemen in this small town. She looked down on her even more, and she wanted to turn around and walk away, but she heard the young man behind her laugh and said, "Little beauty, where to go?" Why haven't I seen you, aren't you?! Kong Wan'er heard his voice as sharp as a jackal, and she was bored in her heart, so she didn't answer, and just left. As soon as I took two steps, I felt that my left shoulder sank, as if I was caught by something. Kong Wan'er looked back and saw that it was the young man's hippie smiling face, and he grabbed her shoulder very contemptuously. This grasp, Kong Wan'er felt that the strength was not light, this person must have practiced kung fu, otherwise he would not be a few feet away from him just now, and he was behind him in an instant, and he was not aware of it, so he grabbed his shoulder.

Crazy Wan'er didn't dare to slack off, her left shoulder sank, and at the same time, her right hand grabbed the young man's wrist and pulled it hard, her body turned around, and her right foot kicked on the young man's lower abdomen, and then with her left leg as the axis, a windmill rotated, throwing the young man seven or eight feet away, which was exactly where he came. The people around laughed, but Kong Wan'er was still standing motionless, with a bright smile on her face.

When the dozen or so big men saw that the master was thrown out, they all stepped forward and dragged and helped, you pushed me, and it took a long time to pull the young man up. The young man pointed at Kong Wan'er and said hatefully: "Give it to me, I must take down this little beautiful woman for me and serve Uncle Ben." The big men listened to the master's words, and Hulala surrounded Kong Wan'er at once. Kong Wan'er has learned family martial arts since she was a child, and she has learned some Xuangong swordsmanship from Fei Wuji over the years.

When the big men saw that Kong Wan'er was a stunning woman, her body was thin and weak, but she was not afraid, they were all stupid, and they didn't know what to do. At this time, I heard the young man shouting: "What are you doing there, and you won't give it to me." The big men came back to their senses. A big man pounced on the bear first, only to see Kong Wan'er lightly tiptoe and step on the big man's head. The big man threw himself into the air, his head was trampled on again, and he didn't stand still, and lay heavily on the ground. Before he could stand up, he felt that he was being pressed by a person, and when he wanted to get up again, another person was pressed down on his body. It turned out that when the other big men saw that the first big man was trampled on the ground by Kong Wan'er, they all rushed forward, Kong Wan'er concocted the same way, and several big men were trampled under her feet in a row. Seeing that the other big men pounced on her in a row, her feet became more and more unstable, Kong Wan'er smiled, jumped up, stepped on the top of the head of the big man who rushed over, and jumped to the middle of the street as light as a deer.

The young man saw it and scolded: "A bunch of fools, people are behind you, don't get up and chase me quickly." He stood there and didn't dare to approach Kong Wan'er. Kong Wan'er glared at him, jumped to dodge and chased after the big man and ran into the distance. The crowd laughed while watching the excitement around them, and some people secretly picked up clods of dirt and threw them at the big men.

Kong Wan'er ran dozens of steps, and had thrown those big men far away, and she saw that there was an intersection in front of her, so she turned back to look at the people who were chasing her, and retreated backwards while looking. If she didn't pay attention, Kong Wan'er felt that she had bumped into something, and when she turned her head again, it turned out to be Prince Jian, and there was Fen Yang standing behind her. They were dressed in civilian clothes and each led a horse with several wild deer on their backs. It turned out that they had just returned from hunting.

Fen Yang saw Kong Wan'er's shy appearance, his heart was shocked, he wanted to go up and speak, but Prince Jian said first: "Madam? Are you also in the city father? ”

Kong Wan'er blushed and replied, "Prince? Yes, just arrived the other day. ”

"So Teacher Fei is also in the city father?" Prince Jian's tone was a little strange.

Kong Wan'er also heard that many people rumored that the reason why Prince Jian was sent to the city father was Fei Wuji's advice to the King of Chu, and because of this, Prince Jian was very resentful of Fei Wuji. Kong Wan'er didn't care about this, he believed that Fei Wuji's actions had his own reasons. So Kong Wan'er replied: "Yes, but he is not in the city father now, and Brother Fei has gone to the Qin State." ”

As soon as he heard about the Qin State, Prince Jian remembered Ying Yi, the marriage between the State of Chu and the State of Qin, that is, he married Ying Yi, Fei Wuji was also very supportive, Fei Wuji was the special envoy of the State of Chu, thinking of this, Prince Jian was not so disgusted with Fei Wuji. This time Fei Wuji went to Qin State again, was it for his own family affairs? Prince Jian asked, "Do you know why Teacher Fei went to the Qin State Office?" ”

"I don't know!" Kong Wan'er didn't want to tell anyone what Fei Wuji was going to do, she was worried that one more person would know about Fei Wuji, and there would be more obstacles.

At this time, there was a commotion on the street, and the group of big men had already approached. Fen Yang stepped forward and shouted: "Bold, who is here to be wild and reckless?" ”

The young man squeezed over from behind, and saw two more people, dressed ordinarily, very despiseful, and said in his heart: "The young master just wants to play with this little beauty, how can there be two things that don't know whether they are dead or alive." So he said, "You two don't meddle in your business, and stay where it's cool." Do you know who I am, sir? Say it and scare you to death, I'm ......" Before he finished speaking, he heard the prince say: "I don't care who you are, come, take it for me!" ”

The young man was amused when he heard this: Just because you two still want to take me, don't you see that there are many of me? Just as he was about to speak, he saw more than 100 heavily armed soldiers jumping out from all directions, listening to the order of the prince Jian, punching and kicking the young man and dozens of big men, only to make their noses blue and their faces swollen.

The prince said: "Tie up that kid for me, and let the others go." Let them go to the prince's mansion in three days to ransom them. ”

Since the crown prince Jian was sent to the city father by King Chuping, he has been in a bad mood, and all he thinks about all day long is looking forward to the day when King Chuping will recruit him back to Yingdu. It was because he hunted every day for fun. As his personal bodyguard, Fen Yang was responsible for protecting the safety of Prince Jian, so he sent a hundred soldiers to protect him secretly. Prince Jian also knew for a long time that he wore civilian clothes every time he went out of the house, and he had to take care of things that didn't like him, and he would find fault and fight if he had nothing to do, so as to express his depression.

Kong Wan'er saw that Prince Jian had taught those splashes a lesson for herself, and said, "Thank you." "Turn around and leave.

Prince Jian stopped her and asked, "Do you know when Teacher Fei will return?" ”

Kong Wan'er said: "When he left, he said that it would be as little as fifteen days, and as much as a month. ”

The prince said: "After Mr. Fei comes back, let him go to my house, I have something to ask him." ”

Kong Wan'er said: "When Brother Fei comes back, I will inform him." ”

At this time, Fen Yang said: "You...... Where do you live? ”

Kong Wan'er had already felt that Fen Yang was interested in her, she smiled and didn't answer, she only had Fei Wuji in her heart.

Fen Yang said again: "You...... If you have any problems, you can go to the prince and me. ”

Kong Wan'er said: "Thank you, farewell." After saying that, he turned around and left.

Fen Yang looked at Kong Wan'er's back, demented for a long time. Prince Jian pulled the reins and said with a smile: "Hey! Let's go. "At this time, Fenyang came to his senses." Is it intentional for others? The prince said: "Kong Wan'er is desperate for Fei Wuji. Fen Yang bowed his head and was silent. Prince Jian said again: "Don't be so depressed, go back to the city father and find another one." Fen Yang still bowed his head and said in his heart: Prince, you don't understand love. Then he got on his horse and galloped home.
