As soon as Lou Jiang heard Yan Chi's words, he leaned back with a smile, and he almost died of laughter, hey, why didn't he find out that this stinky boy still had such potential before? It's too stingy to be so possessive of your daughter-in-law!

Lou Jiang said, "I don't have a word of eight words, and you are not ashamed to say this." ”

Yan Chi is not ashamed.

Men, what needs to be said is to be said.

Yan Chi said, "In the future, I will come to see my grandmother with her, and when Lou Wei comes back, I will let him go out of the palace for a period of time and accompany you." ”

Lou Jiang is actually not lonely, she has so many books here, which is enough for her to pass the time. Don't look at her as just a collection of books, but she has a lot of things to do every day, to deal with some trouble-making guests, but also to manage the huge osmanthus street, the sisters on the osmanthus street are too many to count, and the juniors are more and more, often come to her to jump the door, probably feel that she has no popularity here in addition to books, every time she comes back is not to bring food or drink, occasionally will pull her, set up a big pot downstairs, several people around the cauldron, eat shabu shabu.

Lou Jiang is not lonely, there are people to accompany him, but these people are not relatives, after hearing Yan Chi's words, Lou Jiang said, "Okay, it just so happens that this princess wants to practice swordsmanship, and I also have to point out her, if she wants to come in the future, don't stop her, I just looked at Mama Fang and Mama Shen, is she the two of them serving this princess now?" ”

Yan Chi said, "Yes." ”

Lou Jiang said, "That's better, I'll bring the knife book back later, let the two of them help Shenwu, someone will guide her, and the princess's progress will be faster." And if you want to thoroughly verify whether she is the reincarnation of the Sword Emperor Jiuyang, Xiao only looks at her progress in practicing the knife. Sword Emperor Jiuyang is the master of the sword, but also the master of ten thousand soldiers, with his divine blood of the heirs, practice the knife method, effortlessly, basically a month can be fast. ”

Yan Chi was shocked, "Is it so fast?" ”

Lou Jiang said, "It depends on whether the princess is the reincarnation of the Sword Emperor Jiuyang." ”

Yan Chi's brows sank.

Lou Jiang stood up and said, "I'll go in and see her." ”

Yan Chi sat still and didn't move.

Lou Jiang entered the house and asked Zhao Huaiyan about his research on the knife spectrum.

Zhao Huaiyan sat cross-legged in the position where Lou Jiang was sitting just now, looking at a yellowed kraft book spread on the table, the kraft book was very old, the edges were rough and hairy, and the words and graphics on it were also a little blurry.

Fortunately, Zhao Huaiyan is young, has good eyesight, and can still see handwriting and patterns with difficulty.

It's just that the handwriting and patterns are a bit esoteric, and most of them can't be understood.

After Lou Jiang came, he asked her, "Finished reading?" ”

There is only a piece of brown paper before and after, half of which is a word, and a small half is a picture.

Zhao Huaiyan studied as a child, and the library of the Zhao royal family was basically searched by her.

I read a lot of books, and the reading speed that comes out of practice is faster than that of ordinary people.

She did finish reading it, so she nodded at Lou Jiang.

Lou Jiang asked, "Do you understand?" ”

Zhao Huaiyan shook his head, "I can't understand a lot." ”

Lou Jiang smiled, "It's normal to not understand, even I have a lot of things that I can't figure out." But it doesn't matter, you take it back and study it slowly, after all, you don't have anything to do now, you can participate in enlightenment when you are free, and then practice. ”

When Zhao Huaiyan heard this, she looked up at her awkwardly, "What does Granny Lou mean, let me take this knife back to practice?" ”

Lou Jiang said, "Yes." ”

Zhao Huaiyan was shocked, her first reaction was the same as Yan Chi, she felt that she was a weak woman, and it was not appropriate to practice this sword, right? Can she handle a knife? It's not that she doesn't have confidence in herself, but in her plan, what she wants to learn is not knife skills!

Zhao Huaiyan choked depressedly and pleaded in a low voice, "Granny Lou, can't I practice swordsmanship?" ”

Lou Jiang said, "Swordsmanship is not suitable for you, but if you really want to practice, I can find you a copy." ”

Zhao Huaiyan's eyes lit up, he stood up very respectfully, and bowed to Lou Jiang, "Thank you, Granny Lou." ”

Lou Jiang glanced at her and turned around to find a sword book for her.

The sword book was found and handed to her, and when she took it, Lou Jiang picked up the ancient sword book on the table, rolled it into a roll, tied it with a rope, and handed it to her together.

Zhao Huaiyan didn't want to take it.

She was a little embarrassed to take so many things back from Lou Jiang at once.

She didn't know her well.

Lou Jiang said, "Take it back and practice together, and practice whichever is easy." ”

Zhao Huaiyan couldn't push such a hospitality, so he had to accept it.

After holding the sword spectrum and the knife spectrum on the left and right, she bowed to Lou Jiang again, "Thank you, Granny Lou." ”

Lou Jiang waved his hand at her, meaning, you can go.

Zhao Huaiyan walked out.

Lou Jiang did not come out with him.

After Zhao Huaiyan came out, he was taken to the balcony tea house where Yan Chi drank tea by the boy of Loujing Pavilion who was guarding outside the door.

Yan Chi saw her, put down the cup in his hand, glanced at the things in her hand, and asked, "Took two copies?" ”

Zhao Huaiyan was slightly embarrassed, she walked over, and after the little boy who sent her left, she whispered to Yan Chi, "Granny Lou has to stuff me with two copies." ”

Yan Chi raised his eyes to look at her, "You're not happy to give you one more?" ”

Zhao Huaiyan said, "I'm not unhappy, I just feel embarrassed." ”

Yan Chi chuckled when she heard this, and reached out to stop her waist and hug her.

Zhao Huaiyan was startled and was about to resist, but Yan Chi jumped from the railing with her in his arms.

Six storeys high, not high, but not low either.

Zhao Huaiyan didn't have light work, and was held by Yan Chi like this, and his frightened heart stopped beating.

The moment she suddenly left the ground, she screamed uncontrollably.

It's just that Yan Chi is likely to do it on purpose.

also knew that she would definitely scream.

As soon as she opened her mouth, he quickly lowered his head and kissed her lips, muffling the screams she was about to escape.

At the same time, it also successfully invaded her mouth.

Choked her tongue.

In just a few blinks, or longer, Yan Chi kissed her without losing it, and it was not until he landed that he reluctantly let go of her.

In the backyard, there was no one, only the heartbeat of two people pounding at the moment.

Zhao Huaiyan was frightened and suffocated, and his legs were weak as soon as he landed.

Yan Chi hugged her tightly, and while supporting her body, he lowered his head and kissed her again.

At this time, Zhao Huaiyan had no power to resist, and was easily stolen by Yan Chi for a long time.

When he let go this time, Zhao Huaiyan's whole person was weak.

Yan Chi kissed her forehead lovingly, and went out the back door with her.

The carriage stopped at the back door.

The coachman squatted in the corner, basking in the sun.

Xuan Xiang and Shang Rou, as well as Mama Fang and Mama Shen, stood on the side of the carriage and chatted.

Hearing footsteps, several people looked over at the same time.

Seeing Yan Chi carrying Zhao Huaiyan down, the coachman immediately stood up, Xuanxiang, Shang Rou, Fang Mama, and Shen Mama stopped talking, two people put their pedals, two people went to brush the car curtain, and when Yan Chi took Zhao Huaiyan into the carriage, the four of her also followed, and the coachman put away the pedals, jumped on the position of driving the horse, and drove the horse away.

The carriage is divided into front and rear carriages.

Yan Chi and Zhao Huaiyan sat in the back compartment, and Xuanxiang, Shang Rou, Fang Mama, and Shen Mama sat in the front compartment.

After getting into the car, the carriage was bumpy, and Zhao Huaiyan's whole person recovered.

As soon as she recovered, thinking of what Yan Chi had just done, she was so angry that she wanted to beat someone!

It's not as good as people.

Zhao Huaiyan endured the anger in her stomach, wiped her mouth fiercely with her sleeve, wiped it, put the sword book and knife book into her sleeve pocket, and secretly swore that she must practice swordsmanship and knife skills, turn around, and slaughter this damn prince!

Maybe the expression on her face was too obvious, maybe Yan Chi was the roundworm in her stomach.

She didn't say anything, but he knew what she was thinking.

He sat on the side, looked at her on the soft couch on the left side with a smile, and said, "Even if you practice swordsmanship and sword skills, you can't kill me." If you really want to torture me and marry me, you will deceive me every day. ”

Zhao Huaiyan laughed angrily, "You think it's beautiful!" ”

Yan Chi was stunned for a long time when he heard this, and suddenly laughed, the jade crown on his head trembled, he felt that Princess Zhao Guo was extremely eloquent when she dressed up as a man, and changed into women's clothes, and her temper was extraordinarily clever, but it was difficult to hide her ice and snow cleverness.

No matter what he said to set a hole for her, she didn't have to think about it, she could debunk it right away.

All right.

He thought it was more beautiful.

If she's not fooled, forget it.

Yan Chi smiled and closed his eyes, and went to sleep.

In fact, there is a beautiful woman sitting next to him, and he is a beauty who wants to deceive him into the bed, looking at her, it is really difficult for him to hold it.

Then don't look at it.

In the carriage, he really didn't want to surprise her.

Yan Chi closed his eyes and didn't speak, Zhao Huaiyan didn't pay attention to her, the carriage drove all the way into the prince's mansion, entered the Yanxiao Palace, and only stopped when he arrived at the gate of the palace.

Yan Chi got out of the carriage first, and after going down, he stood there waiting for Zhao Huaiyan.

Originally, he wanted to help Zhao Huaiyan when he came down, but before Zhao Huaiyan came down, Gan Yang came to his side first, saying that the emperor let him go back to the palace for a trip.

Yan Chi raised his eyebrows, and glanced at the curtain that was lifted by Xuan Xiang and Shang Rou, and the woman who was about to come out with her skirt bent over after the curtain was lifted.

He sighed slightly, turned and walked away.

This time, he rarely appeared in front of Zhao Huaiyan again.

Seeing no one who was in the way, Zhao Huaiyan was in a happy mood to learn swordsmanship and knife techniques.

And while she was learning swordsmanship and knife techniques, Yan Chi was busy with aggression.

When he went to the palace that day, Yan Xingzhou showed Yan Chi the letter sent by Nanqiu Han.

The letter was sent by Nanqiu Han, not Mrs. Nan Chen, not Zhang Jin, not Emperor Chen, or Prime Minister Pei Lianfu, it is conceivable what the content of this letter is about.

After Yan Chi read the letter, he immediately wrote a letter by hand and asked the messenger to hand it over to Nanqiu Han.

Another five days had passed when Nanqiu Han got the letter again.

And when he received the letter, Lou Wei and Lou Soul Ling returned to Yan Kingdom.

Yuan Xing returned to Yan Chi's side.

Yan Le and Yan Guangning also arrived at the pilgrimage dynasty under the escort of Qinghai along the way, and wrote a letter of peace to come back, so that Emperor Yan and Yan Chi could rest assured.

After reading this letter, Yan Chi thought that Lou Jiang said that Yizen Ye and Foguang might know more about the universal stone and the ancient Nine Emperors, so he replied to Yan Guangning, asking her about it when she saw Yizen Ye or Foguang.

Yan Guangning received this letter and took it to heart very seriously.

She also knows about Zhou Xiaochan, and naturally knows Yan Chi's heart knot for so many years.

As a younger sister, it is self-righteous to be able to share the worries of her brother.

Qi Wen made a detour to Zhao State, and as Yan Chi said, Qi Wen took Zhao Xian hostage with kindness to Zhao Huaiyan and asked him to provide convenience.

Before that, Zhao Xian received a letter from Zhao Huaiyan, and sent away Qin Zhi and Bu Jingtao who came to Zhao to inquire about Zhao Huaiyan's news.

In the face of Qi Wen's "hijacking", Zhao Xian sent him away without a trace.

Zhao Xian said, "Prince Qi is kind to my daughter, of course I remember this father and emperor, but my daughter is still in Yan Kingdom, and she has not come back, once I provide you with a convenient door, then my daughter will be in danger in Yan Kingdom, Prince Qi, don't be embarrassed, when Yan'er comes back safely, I will let her go to your Qi Kingdom and thank you in person, how about it?" ”

Qi Wen heard Zhao Xian's words, what else could he say?

He was a single person and came to Zhao to meet Zhao Xian.

Zhao Xianneng is already very thoughtful about giving face.

He couldn't really coerce him into anything.

In the other party's territory, he doesn't have the capital to coerce.

And this time they met, in exchange for Zhao Huaiyan's promise to go to his Qi country, he would not lose.

Qi Wen smiled, arched his hand and said, "Then I'll go back first." ”

Zhao Xian sent someone to send him.

When Qi Wen left, Zhao Xian's face collapsed.

After that, Qi Wen became a villain in Zhao Xian's place.

Zhao Huaiyan said in the letter that the transaction between her and Qi Wen is a buy and a sell, and there is no such thing as who loses to whom and who is favored by whom, but this Qi Wen is threatened with grace in a blink of an eye, who is it!

Zhao Xian was very angry and pulled Qi Wen into the blacklist.

But Qi Wen didn't know that after he left Zhao State, he went all the way north and returned to Qi State.

But when he returned to Qi without stopping, he didn't have time to catch his breath, so he was announced into the palace by his father, scolded him head-on, and after scolding, he threw him a letter, "Take a look." ”

Qi Wen opened the letter aggrievedly, and after reading it, he slapped the table and said angrily, "This Yan Chi, he is calculating me!" ”

Emperor Qi snorted, "If you weren't stupid, he would have calculated you?" ”

Qi Wen said angrily, "Either he doesn't let me come back, or let me come back and make this trick, what kind of person is a bright and upright person!" ”

Emperor Qi said, "You are really stupid, the king is fighting, the prince is fighting, there has never been a fair and fair talk!" What the letter said is very clear, either you go to pick up people in person, or he, Yan State sent the generals of the Jiuzhu Inner Power Pavilion to personally send people back, what does the Jiuzhu Inner Power Pavilion of Yan State mean, the entire Jiuzhu Inner Power Pavilion knows that as soon as the Jiuzhu Inner Power Pavilion moves, the smoke will rise. If you don't go, then wait for Qi Guo to lure the wolf into the house. ”

After Emperor Qi said this, he got up and left.

Qi Wen pinched the letter, and the bone fingers of Qi rattled.

Yan Chi's move is really murderous.

And in this game, no matter whether Qi Wenyuan was unwilling or not, Yan Chi had already put him on the chopping board.

Once he comes to Yan Kingdom, he will become a hostage of Yan Kingdom.

Yan State has the crown prince of Qi in his hands, and once he launches a large army to invade Qi, Qi will be extremely passive because of this prince.

If Qi Wen didn't come, the generals of the Jiuzhu Inner Power Pavilion would enter the territory of Qi State and join forces with the soldiers of Yan State who came from Chen Land to capture Qi State.

Therefore, this move is also a trick.

Of course, if you want to live this chess game, you have to rely on Chen Guo.

So at this moment, the matter on Chen Guo's side is the most important.

Nanqiu Han got the letter and read it immediately.

Yan Chi wrote in the letter, "Everything is ready, as long as Emperor Chen Guo nods and agrees to borrow it, of course, if you can persuade him to send half of Chen Guo's troops to help Yan Guo, it will be better." After pulling Chen Guo into the ranks of Yan State, Qi State became an isolated state, sandwiched between Chen and Chu, and had to bear it. At this time, if my Yan Kingdom wants to take down the Qi State, it is a simple matter. ”

Nanqiu Han read the letter and handed it to Nan Ziyan.

Nan Ziyan looked down.

At the time of morning tea, everyone ate in the old lady's courtyard.

Because Mrs. Nan Chen married Yan Guo far away, she has not returned home for many years, and she has not visited the second elder, which is finally here, and she wants to be by her side all the time, and the second elder is the same, the so-called mother is worried, her daughter is married so far, and his second elder wants to take a look and has no ability, so he can only look at it from the other mountain, which is finally back, and his second elder also calls Mrs. Nan Chen to the courtyard every day to chat.

In addition to Mrs. Nan Chen, Nan Zina and Nan Ziyan, the grandsons and granddaughters, are also remembered by the second elder, and they have to watch them several times a day to feel at ease.

Nan Ziyan and Nanqiu Han had just come out of the old lady's courtyard.

Mrs. Nan Chen, Nan Zina and Ming Ling, as well as the eldest daughter-in-law He, the concubine Rou, and the eldest daughter-in-law's eldest daughter and second daughter, Rou's youngest son and youngest daughter, and the children of the eldest daughter-in-law and eldest daughter are all there.

Pei Lianfu ate morning tea and went to the court.

Pei Lianfu's eldest son took the scholar to the school after breakfast.

Nanqiu Han received the letter, so he called Nan Ziyan to come out together.

He was the only father and son in the bedroom.

After reading the letter, Nan Ziyan glanced towards the door.

Nanqiu Han said, "The guards outside the house are all people sent by the prince, so if you have anything to say, you can say it directly." ”

Nan Ziyan said, "In the past few days, I think my uncle respects Emperor Chen very much, and he also loves the people of Chen State, he is the prime minister of a country, everything he thinks is for Chen Guo, if you want him to help be a lobbyist, persuade Emperor Chen to borrow Yan State, and send troops to help, it is likely not to work." ”

Nanqiu Han said softly, "Your uncle is a loyal and stubborn person, it is indeed a little difficult to open a gap from here, but no matter how difficult it is, you have to try, the prince said in the letter, everything has been prepared, just wait for Chen Guo's side, we can't humiliate this mission." ”

Nan Ziyan asked, "What is Dad going to do?" ”

Nanqiu Han put his hands behind his back, paced lightly in the bedroom, and after walking around the table, he stood still and said in a deep voice, "It's not easy for us to talk to your uncle directly about this, if we say this, it will ignore your mother, and it will cause a rift between your uncle and your mother. Dad thinks that it is more appropriate for Zhang Jin to take the initiative to mention this matter to Emperor Chen, after all, he is an envoy sent by Yan State, and his identity is the most suitable, plus Zhang Jin is a famous minister of Yan State, he will definitely be able to make Emperor Chen speechless, and once Emperor Chen can't solve the matter, he will definitely announce your uncle into the palace and discuss with your uncle. If your uncle thinks that this matter is difficult, he will probably come to check on his father's tone, and it will not be too late for him to express his opinion. ”

Nan Ziyan listened with admiration, and he smiled and said, "Dad is worthy of being the Duke of Nanguo of Yan Kingdom, he is really resourceful." ”

Nanqiu Han said, "As a minister, you have to think a lot. ”

Nan Ziyan held his chin and said, "We avoided doing this, but it's not a little unkind, let my uncle embarrass me, if I let my mother know, will my mother blame us?" ”

Nanqiu Han looked at Nan Ziyan and said earnestly, "Loyalty and righteousness have been a dilemma since ancient times. Furthermore, we have not been unjust to your uncle. Chen Guo is weak and dependent on Qi State, once Qi State is dead, Chen State is difficult to maintain, the prince chose Chen State, in fact, he is also seeking a way back for Chen State, otherwise, he does not need to send us here, directly send troops to fight, with the strength of Yan State, if you want to take Chen State, isn't it an easy thing? ”

Nan Ziyan listened and felt that it made sense.

He said, "Then don't tell my mother about this matter first?" ”

Nanqiu Han took the letter in Nan Ziyan's hand, opened the door, handed it to a guard, and asked him to find a way to hand it over to Zhang Jin.

The guard took the letter and left.

Nanqiu Han closed the door, sat at the table and poured tea, and said while pouring water, "Let's pretend that we don't know anything, if your mother asks who came to us just now, you will tell the truth, just say that it is someone sent by the prince, and ask us if everything is going well in Chen Kingdom, and don't say anything more on the side." ”

Nan Ziyan responded.

After Zhang Jin received the letter and read it, he entered the palace of Chen Guo in the afternoon and met Emperor Chen.

Zhang Jin told Emperor Chen the meaning expressed by Yan Chi in the letter.

When Emperor Chen heard this, his face turned pale with fright.

Whether it is an enemy of Qi or Yan, it is a nightmare for him!

Emperor Chen groaned and hurriedly shouted with a headache.

As soon as the father-in-law in charge saw that the emperor was about to roll on the dragon throne, he hurriedly raised his voice in a panic to spread the word to the imperial doctor.

Zhang Jin is not good to stay any longer.

I had to go.

In the evening, he came again.

Emperor Chen was still lying on the dragon bed, pretending to be sick.

Zhang Jin glanced at him and left.

The next day, Zhang Jin came again.

Emperor Chen had a headache as soon as he saw him.

In this way, he was pestered by Zhang Jin for more than five days, and Emperor Chen knew that he couldn't avoid this matter anyway, so he had to announce Pei Lianfu into the palace and ask what this high-ranking prime minister would do.

Pei Lianfu listened to Emperor Chen's complaints, and stood there motionless, without the slightest change in his face.

The father-in-law next to him looked at Pei Lianfu's expressionless appearance, and couldn't help but be a little scared.

To be honest, for the ministers of the Chen State, the emperor was not the most terrifying.

The most terrifying thing is this Prime Minister.

After the emperor finished speaking, he didn't hear Pei Lianfu's reply, he shouted, "Pei Xiang? ”

Pei Lianfu took a step towards the dragon bed and asked Emperor Chen, "The emperor said that he was not feeling well in the past few days, because he was scared?" ”

Emperor Chen was a little embarrassed, coughed lightly and said, "I don't know what to do, that chapter entered the palace every day, just to let me open my mouth to promise him, but if I agreed to him, wouldn't I have to be an enemy of the Qi State?" ”

Pei Lianfu said, "If you don't agree to him, you are an enemy of Yan Kingdom." ”

When Emperor Chen heard this, he immediately raised his head, "What does the prime minister mean, let me agree to Zhang Jin?" ”

Pei Lianfu said, "The minister didn't say that. ”
