Su Zizhong asked Pu Cao to sit on Liu Youzhi's side and tell Pu Cao about the doorway of the captain of the Apologetic Army, but Pu Cao insisted on sitting near Liu Jingqiu, saying that it was too noisy over there, and he couldn't resist persuasion when he drank too much, and he would die for several days if he drank too much.

Su Zizhong did not doubt him, refused the invitations of several groups of people, and walked over with Pu Cao thinking about Liu Jingqiu.

"Brother Zizhong, come, sit here." Liu Jingqiu originally sat next to Princess Lingzi, and was very happy to see Su Zizhonglai, in the past, boys played together, and rarely brought Liu Jingqiu.

Liu Jingqiu moved, patted the snow cow skin spread on the meadow on the left side, and gave the best position near the bonfire to Su Zizhong, Su Zizhong was not humble, sat down, took the roasted snow lamb leg meat in Liu Jingqiu's hand, pulled half of it and handed it to Pucao.

He knew that Liu Jingqiu liked Su Zizhong, but unfortunately Su Zizhong always regarded Liu Jingqiu as his sister, and Liu Jingqiu was destined to be a falling flower.

Pu Cao brought Su Zizhong for a purpose, if Su Zizhong came and attracted Liu Jingqiu's attention, he would have the opportunity to talk to Princess Lingzi.

Ling Zi played with the wreath woven from wild flowers on the meadow in his hand, and looked at the bonfire that was beeping and burning.

"I've seen Princess Lingzi, we had a meeting at the gate of the fort last time, I don't know if the princess remembers." Pu Cao pretended to spin around a few times, looked at the gap and sat down next to Ling Zi, with a little distance in the middle, if it was too close, it would be too Meng Lang, and it would be very bad to arouse disgust from the other party.

Pu Cao's voice pulled Ling Zi's thoughts back from his distraction, smiled politely, and replied, "You are Su Gongzi's friend Pu Cao, I heard Jingqiu say it." ”

Ling Zi's attendants knew Pu Cao, and Pu Cao went in and out with Su Zizhong every day in Liujiabao, which was obvious to all. Although their duty is to protect the safety of the princess, but now Pu Cao is just talking to Princess Lingzi, which is not an offense, after all, he is Su Zizhong's friend, and it is not easy to step forward to stop him, he just stares intentionally or unintentionally, but if Pu Cao has a little excessive behavior or excessive behavior, he can respond at any time.

Since Pu Cao met Princess Ling Zi, she has always looked forward to meeting her, as long as she hears the sound of Ling Zi's piano, she will stop, guessing what she is doing at the moment, what kind of expression she is, and what kind of mood she will be.

Although they all live in the guest house, it's a pity that Princess Lingzi doesn't go out much, and she is always guarded when she is not close, and she can't meet once in a few days.

Pu Cao nodded suddenly, forgetting all the words she had thought of before.

She spoke to me!

Her voice is so good, and she laughs so well!

She knows me!

She knows that I am Su Zizhong's friend, which means that she also pays attention to me!

In ecstasy, Pu Cao felt that her heart was beating faster, faster than drinking a pot of Snow Flame wine.

It was getting faster and faster, and it was about to jump out of her throat and jump onto Ling Zi's hand, letting her see the thoughts and entanglements in Pu Cao's heart.

Fourteen-year-old Pucao, with a dark face flushed purple, sat cross-legged on the meadow, which was dry from the campfire, like the mouth of Pucao.

"Be sober, sober again, talk to her a few more words, just say a few more words." Pu Cao's right thumb and index finger pinched the snow mutton in his hand fiercely, thinking that he couldn't be so unproductive, he wanted to be as graceful and gentle as Su Zizhong, but he couldn't make a sound when he opened his mouth several times, so he had to keep a smiling face mechanically, and the muscles on his face twitched involuntarily.

Su Zizhong was talking to Liu Jingqiu that he would go to Daxue Mountain in the near future, but Pu Cao listened to it, so he finally found a topic, smoothed his breath, and said to Ling Zi: "I heard that Duke Ling Zi is going to envoy Daxue Mountain, and it is colder than Liujiabao over there, so you need to wear more clothes." ”

What is this called, Princess Lingzi is not a fool, Leng must wear more clothes, what are you talking nonsense. Pu Cao finally spoke, and after speaking, she felt that she must be stupid in the eyes of Princess Lingzi.

"Thank you for your concern, I'm just a title, and a few adults have ideas about specific things." Ling Zi didn't seem to like mentioning the mission of the Great Snow Mountain too much, and pulled Liu Jingqiu, who was chatting happily with Su Zizhong, "Jingqiu, it's too noisy outside, it's good to go back to your room and talk outside." He stood up again and apologized to Pu Cao, "Forgive Lingzi for missing his company." ”

Liu Jingqiu still wanted to pester Su Zizhong, but Su Zizhong remembered to tell Pu Cao about Wu Chang, and hurriedly took Liu Jingqiu away, so that Liu Jingqiu could accompany Princess Lingzi well.

Liu Jingqiu pouted and turned back three times, and Pu Cao's gaze never left Ling Zi's figure at all.

It's over, it's over before it starts.

Didn't it upset her?

Is there something wrong?

Damn, if I knew this was the case, I shouldn't have talked to her today, so I couldn't bear it more?

Pu Cao slapped himself in the face, and Su Zizhong was dumbfounded.

"Hey, I'm looking for you to get down to business, where are you going?" Pu Cao still went down and Su Zizhong walked back.

"Go and die."

Su Zizhong was confused, no, Pu Cao intercepted the god and pointed out that he had only had a seizure a few days ago, why should he seek death, don't mess up his brain when he knows that he can practice martial arts, and when he gets to the big snow mountain, he has to ask the doctor in the mountain to take a look.

Sleeping Moon Pavilion, the old bustard's bedroom.

"Liuniang open the door, Liuniang, I'm Ying'er." A maidservant dressed in the costume of a maid in the Sleeping Moon Pavilion panted and knocked on the door.

"Did anyone see you coming?"

"No, it's sparsely populated during the day, and I didn't see a few people when I came, and they were all sleeping."

"Hurry up and get down to business."

"I saw that the son of the fourth courtyard was taken away by the guests of the fifth courtyard."

"See?"

"That's not wrong, according to your orders, I have been tending to the flowers and plants outside the fourth courtyard during the day, and I saw that Hanzi was grabbed by a pair of invisible hands and flew into the fifth courtyard in the air."

"You go back first, and then star." The old bustard took out a silver ingot and stuffed it into Ying'er's hand.

"Yes."

Seeing Ying'er leaving, the old bustard closed the door again and pulled the well-concealed copper bell in the room.

"Stranger, don't you have anything to say to me?" In the fifth courtyard, Ding Yang leaned on the brocade couch purchased from the inland by the Sleeping Moon Pavilion, and the son of the fourth courtyard lay on the ground.

"I know a lot of things, I don't know what my predecessors want to hear?" Hanzi's face was fearless, and he looked around, thinking of the mysterious person who didn't know where he was and only transmitted his true qi to himself.

The mysterious man said that after being caught, he could not only save his life, but also help him have a direct conversation with Daxue Mountain. As long as we can borrow soldiers, there is hope for the great cause of restoring the country.

"Stranger, if you don't want to endure hardships, don't beat around the bush and honestly explain how you met Cao Kui."

"Isn't Cao Kui the dead Holy Son, yes, I know him, and he has done a lot of things for me."

Hanzi not only happily explained how to meet Cao Kui, but also said many things that Ding Yang wanted to know.

Hanzi's name is Yu Zhen, the fifteenth son of Emperor Feng, and now he is the only descendant of the Fengguo royal family. When Ling Yingxia rebelled, the master took him to the United Kingdom to visit his fellow disciples in Xileng, so he escaped.

Yu Zhen's master is worshiped by the royal family of Fengguo, and his cultivation is very exquisite, the news of Ling Yingxia's seizure of the throne spread, Yu Zhen's master escorted him to sneak into Fengguo quietly, contacted several courtiers loyal to the Yu family, and wanted to restore the imperial family, but Ling Yingxia's military power was deep-rooted and could not be spilled, and the people who opposed Ling Yingxia in the army had already been killed.

It is simply wishful thinking to rely on a few ministers to restore the country without the power of a chicken, and in desperation, they have no choice but to find the royal treasures in the early years for emergencies according to the secret plan of inheritance, and want to use external forces to eliminate the rebellion.

Yeguo invaded, the Fengguo royal family organization was ineffective, the people suffered heavy casualties, and the domestic resentment was boiling, the general held the righteous banner of "driving the captives", and rebelled with an army of 800,000. Not only that, Ling Yingxia also deployed the army to the front line of Giant Elephant Mountain to fight the king of Daye, won the hearts of the people again, and his position became more stable.

Daye was first sent out of Yu Zhen's wooing target, if it weren't for King Daye, the Fengguo royal family would not have ended up like this. Yu Zhen first contacted Emperor Muguo privately and wanted to borrow troops from Muguo, but Muguo himself was tightly surrounded by the five countries, and he didn't dare to easily damage the viable forces fighting in battle, besides, Muguo was not short of money.

But if you don't make money, it's not the style of the Muguo people, and the Muhuang instructed Yu Zhen to borrow troops from Daxue Mountain, and Muguo can borrow the road to make a way for the Longguo army to cross the border and attack Ling Yingxia. Not only can you earn money, but you can also consume the strength of other countries, so why not do it.

The people of Chongqing are poor and poor, even if they defeat Ling Yingxia, it is easy to invite God and difficult to send God, it is really not a good partner for cooperation, as for Jingguo is too far away, it is not realistic to borrow troops.

The people of Longguo believe in the snow god, as long as they give money and food if they win, they will not rely on Fengguo, and they will take a step back and say, even if they lose, it is just a waste of money.

If the silver money can't help Yu Zhen to restore the country, it is dead money, and he Yu Zhen has the power to protect Jin Shan but has no power to protect Jin Mountain, and in the end he still harms himself.

After Yu Zhen came to Longguo, he first contacted the Zhong family of the royal family, and the Zhong family said that they could not be the master of the Great Snow Mountain. As long as Daxueshan agrees, Longguo can pull out an army of millions of people at any time for an expedition, if Daxueshan does not agree, let alone people, there is not a single snow horsehair.

Although the Zhong family couldn't help, they recommended Cao Kui to Yu Zhen from the matchmaking, Cao Kui's status as a holy son still has weight in the Snow God Sect, plus his son Cao Zhihan is an elder of the Snow God Sect, if it works properly, there is still a chance to borrow troops.

Cao Kui was born in the Cao family, and he has always behaved decently among several holy sons, and there is no eye-catching performance, so it is impossible to win the title of the chief priest, but once he can't be the sect leader, he has to go to the big snow mountain to protect the ice god flower, Cao Kui is noble after all, and he misses the prosperity of the world, and he wants to do a big thing that makes the sect pay attention to accumulate the credit for the throne of the great priest.

The two hit it off, Cao Kui knew that most of the grain in the Great Snow Mountain came from the United States, as long as there was friction between the Great Snow Mountain and the United States, the channels for purchasing grain in the Great Snow Mountain would be much narrower, and in the face of the olive branch thrown by Yu Zhen, the elders in the sect were very likely to take it.

Yu Zhen gave Cao Kui 600,000 taels of silver tickets as a deposit, and Cao Kui secretly drugged the attendants sent by the sect to him who had the dual role of protection and surveillance, and united Yu Zhen's men to slaughter Liyang Town, so that the good country had a dispute with Daxue Mountain.

"According to what you say, the deaths and injuries of the soldiers and civilians in Liyang Town, Muguo, are Cao Kui's own initiatives?" Ding Yang saw that Yu Zhen's words were clearly organized, and some of the time, place, and characters were very clear, and they could be known if they were true or false.

"Don't dare to deceive your predecessors, that's true."

"Then why did Cao Kui get drunk in the Sleeping Moon Pavilion, and why did he clash with the crown prince of Long."

According to the younger generation's understanding of Cao Kui, Cao Kui is bold and greedy for money and lustful, he personally told me that all the actions in the Snow God Sect were made by his father to let him pretend to be suppressed, and when he went out of the snow mountain, he wanted to live a good life for himself. With so much money, if he still wants to eat and live with ordinary people in the snowy mountains according to the rules, it is better to kill him. Ding Yang's question has been studied repeatedly by the mysterious person with him, so he does not hesitate to read from the script, "As for why he clashed with the Crown Prince Long, I don't know. At that time, I was hiding in Cao Kui's mansion in Snow Eagle City, near the East City Gate, which was his Cao family's property. If the seniors don't believe me, I can take the seniors there. ”

"Then why don't you hide it well, but come to the Sleeping Moon Pavilion to spend so much money."

"Cao Kui is dead, this line is broken, I guess Daxue Mountain will not let a holy son die in vain, and someone will definitely be sent to investigate. In this case, I might as well simply stand up and talk directly to the person who can call the shots in Daxue Mountain, so as not to go wrong again, if I stay here for one more day, Ling Yingxia's position will be more stable. I can't take care of much in order to restore the country. Today, I finally waited for my seniors, and I asked my seniors to agree to borrow troops, except for the gold and silver I have now, as long as I can restore the country, the conditions are up to you. ”

"Aren't you afraid that the Great Snow Mountain will leave your people and money behind?"

"The worst outcome is nothing more than death, just die in the hands of the traitor Ling Yingxia, there is nothing to be afraid of. Daxueshan took my money, and it is difficult to buy food now, but as long as I agree to borrow troops to help me recapture everything, I am sure that I can persuade Emperor Muhuang to temporarily put aside his hatred and continue to supply food to Daxueshan, but every year I will also take out grain from Fengguo and transport it directly to Daxueshan. ”

"Borrowing soldiers or not borrowing soldiers, I don't count what I said, and my duty is not to worry about this. I will review what you have said one by one, and if there is even the slightest lie, the Snow God Sect will regret letting you come to this world. ”

"Yu Zhen is waiting for the results of the senior's verification in the Sleeping Moon Pavilion, if Yu Zhen is found to be bullying the senior, the head on the neck is waiting for the seniors to come and pick it up at any time."

Ding Yang is not afraid that this stranger will run away, it is not so easy to get out of the snowy mountain, now is not the time to kill Yu Zhen, the most important thing is to verify what Yu Zhen said.

Ding Yang thought quickly in his mind, the Zhong family and the Cao family have always been at odds, why did they recommend Cao Kui to Yu Zhen? Who will benefit the most from Cao Kui's death? Is there any secret that is not yet known?
