Chapter 84: Princess Xiliang
"Why don't we go out into the streets?" Jing Ge suggested that he was afraid that Yun'er would remember sad things when she stayed in this palace. She didn't show it, but she must have felt sad in her heart.
"Okay." Yun'er nodded.
The guards did not stop them, and the minister of state ordered that these two people were guests and came and went as they pleased.
Not long after leaving the Song Palace, Jing Ge sensed that someone was peeping, it was the pair of middle-aged men and women he had met on the road before, but they didn't dare to approach, just stared from afar.
Jing Ge knew that it was because there was a Xiliang master nearby. Although he is free to enter and leave the palace of the Song Dynasty, there are still peerless masters who secretly follow, not ordinary grandmasters, but powerhouses in the royal realm.
"There are really a lot of Xiliang King Realm, and the martial arts are prosperous." Jing Ge said to Yun'er.
"Daqin may not be less than Xiliang, it's just that those masters are detached, indifferent to fame and fortune, and don't show mountain dew."
"Those who came out to work hard for others and seek fame and profit are inferior." Yun'er has her own opinions, and her insights into martial arts have deepened, and she knows that the heart is extremely important for cultivation.
But for those who are peerless, concentration is essential, if you are obsessed with martial arts, how can you have time to hang out.
"That makes sense. Have you broken through to the Grandmaster realm? Jing Ge asked, Yun'er was beside him, and he couldn't perceive her specific realm anymore.
"Not yet, but soon." Yun'er replied.
Even if he knew that Yun'er was amazingly talented and the first person in a thousand years, he felt a little surprised. It's only been a long time, and in more than half a year, I've already stepped into the realm of grandmasters.
"Yun'er is really powerful, I'm afraid she can beat me now." Jing Ge said with a smile.
She was born with a divine pupil, and she could easily break through her weaknesses, and the trajectory of the true yuan flow, which was the ability to defy the sky, was enough to make her invincible in the same rank.
"Not yet, but soon."
Yun'er smiled playfully and replied with the same sentence. It's just that I don't really think so in my heart. Others don't know, but she knows how unfathomable this person around her is, even if she is in the same realm as him, she will not be his opponent if she tries her best.
Qi Lao is his own master and teaches martial arts without reservation.
And in the past six months, he has secretly cultivated according to his guidance, and he has entered the realm quickly. He said it easier to understand than what Qi Lao said, he had a lot of different understandings, and he found a new way to transcend his predecessors.
For her, Jing Ge is also a teacher and friend, and a couple, but he has never acted too much, which makes her a little strange.
Is it thinking about another woman?
The thought flashed through her, and soon she pulled her mind back to thinking about it anymore.
A woman's intuition has always been accurate, and at the beginning, Shi Jingge did often think of Shangguan Junyue. Later, I figured it out, but I found that there was something wrong with my body, and my life was short. He naturally controls and doesn't act too much.
I don't have more than a year and a half left, and a good woman like her will marry a wishful husband in the future.
The rest of the relatives and friends are the same, not too close, so they will not worry too much about themselves.
He didn't quite know what to do at this moment. There seems to be only so much that can be done for them. Then accompany them at the last time and clear as much potential danger as possible for them, Jing Ge thought to himself.
He accompanied Yun'er through the streets and alleys of Handan, looking for snacks from the Song Kingdom and feeling the customs here.
Seeing the residents of Handan living and working in peace and contentment, and thriving, Yun'er had no hatred in her heart at all, and the sorrow she had in the Song Palace had also dissipated a lot.
It is a rumor that King Xiliang hanged Song Guojun, her father hanged himself, Bai Ze did not kill innocents indiscriminately after capturing Handan, even the former Song courtiers rarely killed.
She remembered her mother's words, the reason why her father died was because he was the monarch of Song, and only because he was the monarch of Song.
The kingdom is dead and the king is dead, and the father is at least a person with backbone, and he is unwilling to live secretly, which is worthy of respect.
In the evening, the two returned to the Song Palace.
As soon as he entered the palace gate, Jing Ge caught a glimpse of a somewhat familiar white figure flickering by.
"Yun'er, you go back and rest first."
Yun'er followed her entourage back, and he walked to the place where the figure disappeared.
Soon he caught up with the white figure, and the palace guards saluted when they saw the woman.
"Your Highness the Princess."
Jing Ge followed, no one stopped him, and let him follow.
The woman stepped up the steps, step by step to the main hall of the Song Palace, jumped onto the roof of the highest main hall, and stood to the west.
In winter, the sunset is not visible, and the snow on the tiles has not yet melted.
"I've seen Her Royal Highness the Princess." Jing Ge also jumped on the top of the hall, looked at the woman's back, and bowed slightly. He wondered what the legendary princess looked like.
"Jingge." The woman in white did not turn back.
"It turns out that you are the famous Princess Xiliang." Jing Ge smiled.
"You don't seem surprised?" The woman turned to Jing Ge.
"No, I was surprised, I just didn't show it." This was not expected by him.
The woman in white was thoughtful, and then she smiled, "This answer is very much in line with your style, welcome to Xiliang." ”
"Well, I feel Xiliang's enthusiasm, and the Minister of State is going to take me to visit the barracks tomorrow, I am deeply honored." Jing Ge said with a smile.
He is the son of the marshal of Great Qin, the number one enemy of Xiliang, and there is a lot of friction between the two countries, but he does not feel too much hostility in the palace. Obviously, she is restrained, and the people below do not violate the yang and yin, and they know the autumn, which shows that she has great authority in Xiliang.
It is not easy for a woman to be admired.
"It's good if you're satisfied, if you need anything, just tell your subordinates, after all, you are my Xiliang's honored guest." After speaking, the woman in white jumped off the roof and disappeared from view.
He often saw her in Luoyang, and she was the beautiful shopkeeper of a restaurant near Feiyang Hou's Mansion.
Sometimes Jing Ge would chat with her when she was eating there, but now in retrospect, she probably observed herself silently for a long time. And that restaurant should be the den of Xiliang's secret agents.
What did you do in the Imperial Capital?
Xiliang has been plotting against Great Qin for a long time, and Bai Ning has been in the imperial capital for so long, so he must have made some moves.
Jing Gepan sat in the bedroom and meditated.
If I were the lord of Xiliang, how could I break through the Yanmen Pass?
He silently deduced in his heart.
The Northwest Army occupies the best position, the soldiers are brave, and the deployment is exquisite, it is the most solid fortress, and it is almost impossible for Xiliang to storm it.
As long as the army can't hold on, Xiliang has nothing to do. Jing Ge calculated for a long time, considered many schemes, and came to a conclusion.
Uncle Yang has always been cautious, has followed his father for many years, and is proficient in the art of war.
Xi Liang must have felt very aggrieved, like a tiger imprisoned in a cage, Jing Ge thought to himself, he didn't have too much worry in his heart, he knew that the war here didn't ignite so quickly after he came to the border.
On the second day, Jing Ge got up and Yun'er were preparing to leave the palace to play in Handan City.
As soon as he arrived at the palace gate, he suddenly heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves outside the door. A group of people came galloping through the snow.
The leader rode a Liuyun horse, and did not slow down in front of the Song Palace, and rushed in directly, while the entourage dismounted and stopped outside the palace gate.
Jing Ge and Yun'er happened to be in front of him, and he didn't have the slightest intention of slowing down, allowing the violent Liuyun Pony to gallop.
The two hurriedly took two steps sideways, but they could avoid it.
Immediately, the man glared at them coldly, his expression full of disgust and arrogance.
Because Jing Ge and Yu Yun didn't salute him, if it weren't for something more important, they would definitely have to teach these two inferior people who didn't know the height of the sky.
Yun'er is tranquil by nature, so naturally she will not be angry because of this kind of thing. It's just that Jing Ge frowned slightly.
"Hou Ye, the one just now..." The maid who was in charge of taking care of them on the side saw Jing Ge's expression, and hurriedly stepped forward to explain, wanting to inform the identity of the person who came.
"I know." Jing Ge smiled and waved his hand to interrupt her words, the displeasure on his face had disappeared.
"How many people dare to break into the palace of the Song Dynasty without stopping with armor and swords? Presumably he is one of your princess's two cousins, and he should be Tuoba Chang, the leader of the Nine Banners. Jing Ge said.
"Exactly." The maid replied respectfully, with a hint of admiration in her eyes.
Yun'er caught her subtle changes, and there was a little pride in her heart.
The attitude of the people around to the visitor, the entourage wearing flags, and many details all reveal the identity of the visitor. How could he not see it.
"What is he doing here?" Jing Ge asked casually.
"Uh... I guess I'm looking for Her Royal Highness the Princess. The maid hesitated for a moment and whispered.
"Oh, let's go." Jing Ge didn't dwell too much on this topic, and walked straight to the outside of the palace.
He has little time, and now he is playing with Yun'er to his heart. When life comes to an end, what could be more important than being with loved ones, relatives and friends.
He planned to return to the imperial capital after a while, with his mother and friends. When the deadline is near, he will take action to clear some threats, and then quietly go away, sleeping in a place that no one knows.
When passing through the palace gate, the entourage brought by Tuoba Chang noticed the two of them, and swept Jing Ge's gaze on Yun'er.
This kind of fairy-like woman is eye-catching everywhere.
Jing Ge deliberately took two steps away.
"Why are you so far away from me?" Yun'er felt a little strange about his behavior.
"Originally, I was still quite handsome, but you are too stunning, and being too close to you sets me off mediocre, so I have to go farther." Jing Ge said with a smile.
Yun'er heard that he was praising himself for his good looks in such a different way, and she couldn't help but be a little shy and happy, so she rushed up and stretched out her hand to pat him.
The two of them were fighting as if no one was around, and they didn't pay any attention to them.
"Who are these two?" An entourage of soldiers asked.
"They are the guests of Her Royal Highness the Princess and the Prime Minister, so they must not be rude." The maid who followed behind stepped forward and scolded.
Those soldiers who came back from the border were originally high-spirited and short-tempered, but when they saw this maid, they immediately bowed their heads obediently and retreated, not daring to look at her, and waited by the side in a proper manner.
The princess and the prime minister, they were in awe, and naturally did not dare to provoke their guests.
Now in addition to the garrison of Yanmen Pass, there are also some soldiers in Xiliang who are fighting in the Western Regions, sweeping away nomadic tribes and many small countries that do not submit, stabilizing the rear, and preparing for the next big war.
The Ninth Army led by Tuoba Chang happened to be stationed at Yanmen Pass from the Western Regions, passing by Handan, and when he learned that Bai Ning had returned, he hurried over non-stop.
"That Tuoba often seems to be very powerful." Yun'er said that she had heard that Tuoba was often a very brave general, known for his fierce iron blood.
"That's right, General Tuoba is indeed very powerful, and his prestige in the army is second only to King Liang and His Royal Highness the Princess." The maid and the two gradually became acquainted, no longer restrained, and answered.
Jing Ge just smiled, noncommittal.
"You seem to be a little weird lately, and you don't like to talk much, if you don't feel comfortable here, let's go back tomorrow." She returned to Handan to see it, satisfied her wishes, and did not have too much nostalgia.
Home is a place of peace of mind, it is not here.
