On Chinese New Year's Eve, eating a sumptuous Chinese New Year's Eve meal is a tradition in the land of China.

Aunt Hua, who has always been lazy, cooked herself today and prepared the Chinese New Year's Eve meal in the kitchen with Qianxue.

"Let's help too." Li Man and Li Yao also came over.

"Hey, you two little girls are pampered, you've never done these things, how can you help. Go outside and stay still, lest the smoke and fire darken your clothes. Aunt Hua said with a smile, waving her hand to let them out.

The two sisters couldn't help but feel slightly embarrassed when they heard this, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Let's do it, or there's nowhere to go." Li Man glanced at Jing Ge and Jiang Taigong in the hall in the distance and said.

The two of them talked happily in the hall with their feet on the chessboard, and they didn't welcome the way they interjected in the past, and besides, his sister had a holiday with him.

"Okay then, you guys can help pick this dish." Aunt Hua handed them a basket of vegetables.

Qianxue smiled beside her and didn't speak, she also liked Li Man. This eldest princess has no shelf, is very easy to get along with, has a very gentle temperament, and now she is even more local and likable.

"Uh-huh, ferry?" Li Man was picking vegetable leaves, when he suddenly heard a few cooings, looked up, and saw two gray doves parked on the courtyard wall.

Qianxue walked out and raised her hand, and two pigeons flew over and landed on her arms, with two text messages tied to her legs.

She took it off, opened it and took a look, walked straight to the hall and handed it to Jing Ge.

Jing Ge glanced at it lightly and casually threw the two notes into the fire.

"What's wrong? Look at this girl's face is very solemn. Jiang Taigong asked, although Jing Ge's expression did not change much, it could be seen from Qianxue's expression that it was not good news.

"The state of Wu in the east took advantage of the confrontation between the Hedong army and the state of Qi and took Dongliu City and Bailong Bay. The surrounding small tribes rose up in response to the call and attached themselves to the state of Wu. Jing Ge said.

"Dongliucheng and Bailongwan are two strategic points, easy to defend and difficult to attack, advance can block the Yangtze River grain road, retreat is the depth of the hinterland. How could the Hedong Legion lose these two places? Mrs. Jiang looked incredulous.

"What a stupid commander to do." He felt very shocked, these two passes, once Wu and Qi joined forces, Qi attacked head-on, Wu cut off the logistics supply channel of the Hedong Army, and hundreds of thousands of Hedong troops were defeated without a fight.

"It is estimated that Guo Yuanjia and Li Ying did not expect the Wu army to be so powerful, and put their minds on Qi State. There were no heavy troops to guard him, and he didn't take Wu Guo in his eyes. Jing Ge said. Li Ying only defeated the Wu army a year ago and almost wiped out the Wu state, how could he take them seriously.

Who would have thought that the State of Wu not only made a comeback, but also occupied a large number of territories of the State of Qin, connected dozens of cities, and now occupies two important towns, which has become the climate.

"However, it is expected that the State of Wu will not be able to compete with Great Qin, and when the Hedong Army frees up its hands, it will definitely recover those cities that have been invaded." Jiang Taigong said.

"It's hard to say." Jing Ge shook his head slowly, and glanced at Jiang Taigong meaningfully.

You must know that the current commander of the Wu army is his cheap second brother, and it is rumored that there are 200,000 troops gathered in the Wu country now. Excluding some water, it should still be more than 100,000 people.

Since saying goodbye to the Taoyuan Inn that day, Jing Ge has never seen him again, but he has always been jealous and awe-inspiring towards him in his heart. Especially after seeing Zhuge Yin again during this trip to the northwest.

recalled Zhuge Yin's performance when the three of them first met, obviously thinking that Sun Changqing's talent was not below him, so he politely intersected. From this alone, it is certain that the man will not be a simple person.

"No matter what, the top priority now is to send those two female babies to the country of Qi and persuade the king of Qi to stop fighting." Jiang Taigong said that these two big countries must not fight, otherwise the world will definitely be full of smoke and chaos.

Jing Ge nodded, now he can only do it and pay attention, and he can't see through the vast future.

"Yes, why don't you see Shuang'er?" Jing Ge watched Aunt Hua and Qianxue put the food on the table, and then remembered Jiang Wushuang, the daughter of the princess, who had never seen him.

"Went to the field." Jiang Taigong replied.

"Stinky boy, my mother can warn you not to worry about my child." Aunt Hua heard Jing Ge ask, and immediately snorted coldly and said viciously.

"Uh... Hehe, Aunt Hua, what are you talking about, I, Jingge, am not the kind of person you think. Jing Ge replied with a dry laugh.

"Hehe, it seems that His Highness has a good reputation." Qianxue covered her mouth and chuckled, "The meal is ready, hurry up and eat, don't wait until it's cold." ”

Qianxue just teased Jingge a little, and then immediately diverted the topic, so as not to embarrass His Royal Highness, and grasped everything very well.

At the dinner table, a few people didn't talk much. The two sisters Li Man left the imperial capital for the first time, and the sadness in their hearts had not yet dissipated, so they were naturally not very interested.

Jing Ge, on the other hand, is quite worried about his mother and friends in the imperial capital, and this time he returned to the imperial capital and met in a hurry, and now it is Chinese New Year's Eve, and he can't get together with them for dinner, and it is expected that they are also very worried about themselves. Thinking about it like this, it inevitably adds a touch of loneliness.

Mrs. Jiang and Aunt Hua are okay, Jiang Wushuang is not there or she has any worries, according to the usual practice, a few copper plates were sealed with red paper and distributed to several juniors, everyone has a share.

"Rest early, we'll be on our way early tomorrow morning." After the meal, Jing Ge said to Li Man and Li Yao.

"Go and get it done." He turned around and ordered Qianxue again, and then walked out of the Jiang family's courtyard alone and disappeared into the night.

He went out of the outskirts of the city and came to the battlefield where Zhao Xian and those kings faced off two days ago, and the remains of the battle between the kings were still clearly visible, and the wind and snow were difficult to hide.

Well, Zhao Xian was really dead, he searched all the way along the way, and finally found Zhao Xian's body dozens of miles away from Gusu City.

He sighed lightly, raised his hand to wipe Zhao Xian's unclosed eyes, dug a pit, and buried him.

Dead not far from Zhao Xian were the skeleton old man and the leader of the convoy who came with bandits to attack that day, Jing Ge investigated carefully, but found no trace of Ouyang Tong.

This Zhao Gonggong is really powerful, and he can hunt two kings with fatal injuries. If it is in its heyday, I am afraid that there are few opponents in the world, Jing Ge sighed. Then his pupils shrank slightly, thinking to himself, as strong as Zhao Xian couldn't avoid the assassin's attack, if that person was hidden in the shadows and shot again, I am afraid it would be a lot of trouble.

That person's martial arts cultivation may not be stronger than Zhao Xian, but he is obviously proficient in the way of concealment and assassination, hiding in the shadows, unable to prevent it. I was there that day, but I couldn't find his trace, which was really terrible.

The two kings, maybe they will carry some rare treasures on their bodies. Jing Ge, who wanted to leave, thought about it, but stopped and walked to the two corpses with blurred flesh and blood to take a look.

Hmm, a cheatbook, Jing Ge took out a dilapidated ancient book from the arms of the skeleton old man, and glanced at it a few times through the glimmer.

This kind of thing, he didn't look at it at all, and he wanted to throw it here and leave it for someone destined to pick up, but after thinking about it, this is an evil law, and staying here may create a demon. Immediately rubbed his hands, the ancient books turned into powder and disappeared with the wind.

Hey, there is a sharp weapon, and I don't know if it's on the list of divine soldiers. Jing Ge played with a dagger, the handle was inlaid with a dark green gemstone, the blade was cast in an unknown material, flowing with a cold luster, and there was a golden silk thread wriggling in the middle, this is a spiritual weapon, extremely sharp, noble and cold.

I don't know where this old thing came from. Jing Ge carefully perceived that this dagger did not have the mark of the skeleton old man, but an ownerless thing, obviously he had just obtained it, and he did not have time to establish contact with this dagger.

Such a delicate dagger is just right for girls. When she returns to the imperial capital and makes a gift for Yujue, she will most likely like it very much, Jing Ge thought to herself.

After putting the dagger away, Jing Ge didn't find anything eye-catching, so he didn't stay long and quietly returned to Jiang's house.

"Your Highness, the ship is ready, everything is arranged." Qianxue hadn't gone to bed yet, waiting in her room for Jingge to return.

"That's fine, thank you." Jing Ge looked at the quilt that had been carefully laid and said with a smile.

"I wonder if those people can be trusted?" Qianxue fiddled with the charcoal fire and burned the fire plate more vigorously.

"There shouldn't be any big problem, those people were personally selected by me, and I also left a back hand, don't be suspicious of employing people, don't use suspicious people." Jing Ge said.

"Having said that, the Fifth Division is not a descendant after all, and it hasn't been taken over for too long, so it's better to be careful." Qianxue said.

"You have some truth in that." Jing Ge nodded, sat down in front of the fire plate, took out the dagger he had obtained earlier from his arms and flipped it to play.

"Do you recognize the origin of this dagger?" He asked.

"Where did Your Highness get this thing?" Qianxue took a closer look and asked with a slight surprise.

"The day before yesterday, several Wang Jing ambushed me and Zhao Xian, and two of them were killed by Zhao Xian before he died. The dagger was taken from one of them. Jing Ge said truthfully, he has never hidden anything from Qianxue.

"This is the divine soldier in Weiyang Palace, presumably the person who died came out of the palace." Qianxue took the dagger from Jing Singer and looked at it carefully.

"Well, this person once besieged the War King in the imperial capital." Jing Ge remembered the skeleton old man, and he made a move at that time.

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be the embroidered gold demon knife that ranks first on the list of divine soldiers. It was given to the empress by the first emperor and treasured in the palace. Qianxue said.

"At the top of the list?" Jing Ge was a little strange, "I thought that the first place on the list of divine soldiers should be Qin Wang Jian." ”

"That's not the case, the three great divine soldiers and the Nine Dragon Seals are too transcendent and are not listed in the list of divine soldiers." Qianxue shook her head with a smile and said.

"I don't know who made up the list blindly, but the so-called list of divine soldiers did not include the three major divine soldiers, which is as ridiculous as the absence of a lady in the lady's cake." Jing Ge said.

Qianxue pouted speechlessly, "If the lady's cake is really wrapped in a lady's ridiculous place, then how can you eat it." ”

"In short, Mrs. Cake is just like the Divine Soldier List, it is a blind name." Jing Ge said.

"No, although there is no lady in the lady's cake, the cake is full of lady's friendship, so it is called the lady's cake." Qianxue retorted seriously.

"Well, you seem to have a reason to say it, then this demon knife is ranked first, but is there any great power?" Jing Ge studied this dagger, but felt that it was full of aura, and there was no demonic aura, but it was neutral and peaceful.

"I don't know." Qianxue shook her head and said, she had just heard of the name of this dagger, it had been hidden in the Weiyang Palace, and it had never appeared in the world for three hundred years, how could she know what its characteristics were.

"Leave it alone, go get some rest." Jing Ge put away the dagger and said to Qianxue.

The night was already deep, and the day was coming.
