When the old lady Yue was looking at Xiao Jingxian, Xiao Jingxian was also quietly looking at the legendary prime minister of the Southern Dynasty.

A lucky person like Xu Houcong will naturally feel that Emperor Beiyan is indeed eclectic in using talents, but at least that person has to find a way to appear in front of the emperor by himself.

Otherwise, the official road of Beiyan, which has always been controlled by high-ranking officials and dignitaries, and the imperial examination is a virtual reality, is simply impossible for ordinary people to break through. In Southern Wu, the step-by-step imperial examination was difficult for even the emperor to intervene, let alone the powerful. If you want to make a breakthrough outside the imperial examination, the difficulty will definitely not be lower than that of being from a humble background but becoming a court in Beiyan.

What's more, the old man in front of him who was born as a small official actually succeeded in entering the political hall with many feats that others could not obstruct, and became the current second minister! Even in the Northern Yan, which has always looked down on the Southern Dynasties, the name of Yue Taichang is still like thunder.

The four eyes looked at each other for a long time, and in the end, it was Xiao Jingxian who took the lead in bending down on horseback to salute. Pale face, in the eyes of others, he is calm and noble, even if he doubted the truth of King Jin's defection before, he didn't think about whether he was a fake or not.

"Ever since I met Qianqiu, I have always wanted to see the elder Yue, and today I finally got my long-cherished wish, and I really didn't go unjustly this time. Only a character like the boss who stands up to the sky and the earth will raise a young hero like Qianqiu. ”

Old lady Yue listened to this with a smile as if she was simply praising him and Yue Qianqiu's ancestors, and when Xiao Jing finished speaking, he returned the salute unhurriedly.

He said slowly: "Qianqiu grew up in my Heming Xuan since he was a child, and he speaks well, but he is influenced by me in everything, and if he speaks badly, my good and bad habits have been passed on to him. So the four words of young Yingjie, he can't afford it, he is only a fourteen-year-old child, and it is inevitable that he will be complacent after listening to too much praise, so it is not good to promote the seedlings like this. ”

He glanced at Yue Qianqiu as he spoke, and saw that his little grandson just turned around and gave him a thumbs up secretly, and he clearly didn't have a trace of mustard in his heart, he couldn't help but smile, and then raised his head and looked at Xiao Jingxian: "On the contrary, His Royal Highness the King of Jin can abandon wealth and wealth like floating clouds, which is really admirable." The emperor has been waiting for the driver in Jinling for a long time, and I am just an old man who stands in front of me to greet him. ”

Zhu Xiaobei has always hated this kind of scene of you coming and going, at this time, seeing Xiao Jingxian raised his eyebrows, he was afraid that the other party would continue, and when the time came, it would be endless, and he immediately coughed heavily and said: "Okay, the older Xiangye came up to greet the King of Jin on behalf of the emperor, and everyone should not blow the wind and talk outside the city, let those boys in the city see the excitement, let's go into the city!" ”

"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey." Xiao Jingxian bowed his head slightly, and then lowered his head to take a look, just in time to see that Yue Qianqiu, who was leading the horse for the old lady Yue, had been staring at him.

After their group had just joined Liu Jingxuan and the others, they gave them more than a dozen horses, and then intercepted the Beiyan pursuers for them. And from the time he was chased by Wang Feng and others to this time, he first walked and then rode a horse, and he did not get a moment of rest. So he only looked at Yue Qianqiu's face and knew that this hard-mouthed and soft-hearted little guy might be worried about him.

And when Yue Qianqiu came into contact with Xiao Jingxian's somewhat playful gaze, he knew that most of his careful thoughts had leaked out. Annoyed that he came up, he took advantage of Zhu Xiaobei's shout, and immediately led the old lady Yue's horse to turn around, and strode towards the city gate without looking back.

But before he had walked a few steps, he only felt that the horse behind him was motionless, and when he turned his head to look, he saw that it was his grandfather who pointed at him angrily and funny.

"Forget it just now, now that you have led me to see King Jin, you still have a good mount and don't sit, lead me the horse? How are you the hero of this mission to Beiyan, give me an old man to lead the horse like this, do you want my grandfather and I to be rumored to have a reputation of relying on the old and selling the old in the future? Why don't you hurry up and get on the horse, and accompany His Royal Highness King Jin into the city with your master and the others! ”

Yue Qianqiu realized that he was a little confused, and quickly let go of his hand. When the old lady Yue took back the reins, he was about to walk back to his mount, but when he passed by Xiao Jingxian's horse, he suddenly felt a horsewhip suddenly hit his shoulder, and when he looked up, he saw that it was Xiao Jingxian looking at him with a smile.

He immediately became vigilant: "What the hell are you trying to do?" ”

"Would you like to come up with me? As it happened, the horse turned out to be a double saddle. ”

Yue Qianqiu was stunned to find that this was indeed a horse with a double saddle, and even the size was taller and stronger than ordinary horses, and he knew that with his weight, it was no problem at all. However, even if he was worried about whether Xiao Jingxian would not support, it did not mean that he would accept such a funny invitation at this moment.

He's an adult, who would ride with someone like he did when he was a kid!

Therefore, he directly gave Xiao Jingxian a cold look, and said stiffly: "No need, just sit tight, don't lose your face as His Royal Highness the King of Jin, Yushu Linfeng, and the elegance of the peerless face!" ”

Yan Xu turned around after hearing Yue Qianqiu and Xiao Jingxian arguing, and immediately gave the reins of the empty mount he was holding just now to the apprentice, and after waiting for the horse to get on the horse, he couldn't help but ask: "Qianqiu, your two idioms are too weird." Even if the jade tree is in the wind, can the elegance be used on men? ”

"Absolutely." Yue Qianqiu sneered, and said in a voice that almost only Yan Xu could hear, "Master, you are really blind, you have never seen someone's peerless appearance." ”

"Oh?" Yan Xudeng's eyes lit up, and he quickly pondered the deep meaning behind Yue Qianqiu's words. Who would have thought that Xiao Jing, who was following closely, only listened to Xiao Jing in front of him and threw out a sentence without looking back.

"Xiaoqian, what kind of whispering words do you have with your master, let me listen to it too?"

Is this guy still dog ears after being seriously injured? Yue Qianqiu chuckled in his heart, and when he saw Yan Xu's face full of suspicion, he suddenly fell down weakly. How can you forget that this is not only Xiao Jingxian's black history, but also his very disgraceful black history? Especially Xiao Qianfen should be another nickname of Nuo Nuo, if it becomes popular in the future and becomes called him, he will simply die!

Not only did Yue Qianqiu, but even the little monkey couldn't help but shiver. At this time, Qing Yunian, who was on the side, noticed it, and asked in a low voice, "Senior Brother Yuan, are you cold?" Do you want me to give you the cape? ”

"No need, no need, thank you, Senior Brother Qing!" The little monkey shook his hand desperately, and then said with a sad face, "I just thought of something bad, so I shuddered." ”

He was forced by Xiao Jingxian to pretend to be a little eunuch for a few days, he definitely didn't want to spread this kind of thing, and he would be a dead person!

The little secret between the three people was finally kept and not exposed. And entering Bazhou City under the watchful eye, Xiao Jingxian divided most of his attention, and with the presence of the old lady Yue, the return of the Southern Dynasty delegation was much less concerned. Yue Qianqiu also very consciously let Yan Xu walk in front of him, so he seemed even more inconspicuous.

This made him, who had been in a hurry all the way before, just to cross the border as soon as possible, and now he had enough time to communicate with Qing Fengnian and others about the previous itinerary in Beiyan.

And after asking, he learned that compared with the exciting adventure of him and the little monkey following Xiao Jingxian, Qing Fengnian and the others followed Yan Xu all the way without panic, and they were stopped for inspection several times, but they didn't show any flaws at all. As for the reason why they were ambushed on that road and happened to intercept Wang Feng and the others, it was not a coincidence, but because of Yue Ying's message.

Hearing that it was Yue Ying's arrangement again, Yue Qianqiu couldn't help but grind his teeth secretly, but then his heart moved, looking around for the person he had just completely ignored. Sure enough, Yue Ying, who came back with them, was nowhere to be seen at all at this moment, just like his presence in Jinling, which was so weak that people felt unbelievable.

When he finally came to the Bazhou General's Mansion, Zhu Xiaobei was about to order the preparation of the banquet, Yue Qianqiu immediately yawned, and then said pitifully: "General Zhu, I have been on the road all night, chasing soldiers, and avoiding other people's interceptions, I am almost exhausted." Do you have anything to say back to it? All I need is a bed and a pillow! ”

The little monkey also came back to his senses from the worry just now, and immediately raised his hand in agreement: "I only need a mat, and if I can't do it, I can sleep on the spot!" ”

Zhu Xiaobei originally wanted to warmly entertain the people of the mission who had returned from afar, but seeing that they were all sleepy insects and listless, his eyes fell on Xiao Jingxian, thinking that he had to negotiate with this one first. But before he could speak, his sleeve was pulled. Finding that the old lady shook his head lightly at him, he immediately snorted.

"Okay, everyone is tired from the journey, I'll let people go to the bathroom to prepare hot water, if you want to wash and sleep, go to the bathroom first, if you want to fall asleep, go to sleep first, and then I will give you a good reception at night!"

"Thank you for your kindness!" Yue Qianqiu was relieved, and after arching his hand with a smile, he lost his eyes at Yan Xu, and then looked at Xiao Jingxian. Without him to speak, Xiao Jingxian yawned and said, "Qianqiu and Lord Yan live with me, I need the two of you to be my guide when I first arrive." ”

Xiao Jingxian had taken a so-called tiger and wolf medicine along the way before, so he didn't show weakness in front of others. But Yan Xu was in the villa outside Shangjing City at that time, because of Yue Qianqiu, he had seen Xiao Jingxian after he was seriously injured, so he also realized that Xiao Jingxian was probably not as energetic as his face showed.

When he was dragged by Yue Qianqiu, he and Xiao Jingxian went to the spacious room that was originally assigned to Xiao Jingxian alone, and after seeing Yue Qianqiu close the door, he immediately pressed Xiao Jingxian on the soft couch and sat down, and then took off Xiao Jingxian's clothes regardless of it, revealing the layers of wrapped white cloth, and he suddenly changed color.

There is a daughter-in-law with excellent medical skills who makes all kinds of prescriptions all day long, and his vision is naturally much better than Yue Qianqiu. At this time, he quickly stepped forward to untie the layers of cloth, and saw two wounds that were too obvious, and his face suddenly darkened.

He raised his head and glared at Xiao Jingxian and asked, "It's actually more serious than before?" You've been tossing around with such a serious injury? ”

"That's it, it's worth it to give up your life for acting?" Yue Qianqiu followed behind, his face full of disapproval.

However, seeing that the master and apprentice immediately discussed how to secretly invite a doctor and how to dispense medicine, Xiao Jingxian said lightly: "It's worth it, because only in this way can I have a deterrent effect on others, and I will be useful to the Southern Wu Imperial Court, rather than a simple traitor." ”

As soon as the words fell, he saw Yue Qianqiu smiling coldly at him, and then suddenly slammed his palm on the side of his neck.
