Chapter 224: Finally Seeing Chang'an

Liu Xi didn't tell anyone about what happened this night, just because the prince promised by the king of Zhenxi was not attractive to him at all. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Something that you are never interested in or even cared about, then treat it as if it never happened.

And Ma Xiu and others never asked, sometimes, the closer the relationship, the more you don't need to dig out your mind to know everything.

Many things, when the time comes, will naturally know.

Perhaps to let Princess Lan Jin stay in this home-like Zhenxi Mansion for a few more days, Liu Xi did not send someone to urge her to leave, for fear that Princess Lan Jin's heart that was suffering and sad would collapse in an instant.

After Xinyang City, he is no longer Li Tang, and there are thousands of mountains and rivers behind him, but it is difficult to take a step back.

In this way, Liu Xi had two days to spare, so he closed his door in the inn, but fortunately, Xinyang City was in charge of the king of Zhenxi, so there were no officials to disturb him, so he also ended up quiet.

Like the calm before a storm, this comfort is destined to be broken quickly.

Five days later, a flying horse arrived in front of the inn, but it brought the message of the king of Zhenxi, Princess Lan Jin was ready, and she could leave tomorrow.

Hearing this, for some reason, Liu Xi felt a little sad in his heart, I don't know at this time, those red and swollen beautiful eyes have become tearful again?

It's just that there are some things that always need to be faced.

The next day, Jiang Xuanli joined Liu Xi with the soldiers stationed in the camp, and the Zhenxi Royal Mansion also sent someone to send Princess Lan Jin out.

This time, the king of Zhenxi did not appear, perhaps at this moment, he is the most cruel to a hero like the king of Zhenxi, after all, he is a man of the year in the Tang Dynasty, but now he is watching Li Mengxiao come to beg for the whole Tang Dynasty.

This kind of thing is a great humiliation and sorrow for the king of Zhenxi.

Separation, it was inevitable that tears wet the clothes, and the lord of Shurou almost wanted to cry and fainted, which made Ma Xiu feel very distressed, and the seven-foot man almost shed tears.

After all, it is still necessary to part.

When the escort team set off, the county lord Shurou, who was already crying silently, immediately cried again, and she fainted because of her weak body.

The cry faded away, and Liu Xi, who was riding on the horse, looked back from time to time, but the carriage between the rolling wheels seemed very quiet, and the curtain that had been hanging and shaking with the slight bumps of the carriage blocked everything he wanted to peep on.

After walking for more than half an hour, when passing by a green field, Liu Xi's eyes suddenly flashed with a sourness.

There, the relatives he cares about the most are resting.

Two nights ago, Liu Xi went alone to the place he wanted to forget in the depths of his memory, where the silence was still there, but the vegetation was much more lush.

The night before standing in the tomb, Liu Xi said the words hidden in his heart, and when he left, Liu Xi also went to the resting place of Wu Shuang'er's mother.

When the sky was bright, Liu Xi returned to the inn, and everyone had not woken up yet, but Liu Xi understood that Tian Xun'er and others must have known about his departure.

It's just that they're used to giving a space and not bothering.

Thinking of this, Liu Xi felt a trace of emotion in his heart, for these people who had been with him, he looked back at Tian Xun'er who was holding Ling'er in his arms, and there was a little bit of sadness in his mood.

After walking for dozens of miles, the sky was still not bright, and in that inconspicuous town, Liu Xi met Sun Hu, who was still eating noodles and chewing soup cakes with a group of followers.

Sun Hu was stunned for a long time, but Hou Liu, who had led the way for Liu Xi at the beginning, came back to his senses first, and was so happy that he rushed towards the team to protect his relatives.

Hou Liu's move immediately made Jiang Xuanli shout out the password of precaution, of course, before the 'Feijia' could make a move, the 'Shui Han', who led Liu Xi and others to Wujiang in the name of the King of Zhenxi, took the first step.

"Dangchang!"

With a few crisp sounds, several unsheathed long swords hit Hou Liu's neck at the same time, and a 'Chengyou' deacon who was subordinate to the lower courtyard flew up, turned his palm into a fist, and hit Hou Liu straight at him.

It's just a blink of an eye, and Hou Liu, who was still full of surprise before, was already pale, trembling in both strands, and was stunned in place, what should not be done.

"Be merciful!"

When Liu Xi spoke, Xiao Wu, who had been holding his sword silently, moved, and the sword in his hand turned into a long rainbow, rising into the air and blocking the deacon's fist.

"Buzz!"

After a buzz, the deacon took a few steps back, 'Chengyou' was sent by the people from the rivers and lakes from the lower court to sit in the cities of various states, and his strength was slightly inferior, and he was no match for Xiao Wu.

Liu Xi said a few words of gossip with Hou Liu, who was immortal, so as not to talk about a few old feelings with Sun Hu, as for the horse embroidery that the latter asked, Liu Xi said that he would come later, which also made him feel a lot more at ease. Because he had to hurry, he couldn't delay, so Liu Xi soon led the team to set off.

The water of the Wujiang River is surging as usual, standing on the riverside, Liu Xi can't help but think of the scene when he crossed the Jiangdong in a flat boat, and he doesn't know how the old fisherman who was rescued by him but had to work hard because of the grievances of the Han and Tang Dynasties is okay?

While his thoughts were wandering, Liu Xi also remembered the aroma of soup cakes spread in the alley late at night, but the person who had been waiting for him had been waiting for a child who had been waiting for many years?

Staring at the turbulent river with its eyes, perhaps, it has been like this for thousands of years, ignoring the time and years, ignoring the wars and disputes, and taking care of its own endless flow, devouring countless thoughts and resentments.

The sailor ship transferred from Xinyang City lowered its pedals, and the escort team went to the deck in turn, and when the ship was about to lift anchor, a white coat galloped from afar.

But it was the horse embroidery that was not worried about the lord of Shurou before.

"Today, you don't need to be so anxious, just stay a few more days."

Wiping the beads of sweat that hung on his forehead because he was in a hurry, Ma Xiu shook the Qiankun fan, and the peach blossom eyes were full of smiles, "Some things are enough to put in your heart." ”

These calm words were completely different from the restless appearance a few days ago, and Liu Xi, who knew Ma Xiu well, couldn't help but smile helplessly.

It wasn't until the boat was open that Liu Xi saw Princess Lan Jin, only to see her pick up the carriage curtain with her trembling jade hand, and looked at the shore behind her with beads.

I'm afraid I won't take a look.

In such a scene, Liu Xi only sighed deeply, although he had already informed Princess Lan Jin of the plan, but at this moment, Princess Lan Jin was afraid that she did not have the slightest extravagant hope in her heart, and she was already in despair, and the whole person was thinking about the bleak situation in the future.

Perhaps, the most that Princess Lan Jin meditates on is when she can return this time, right?

Liu Xi naturally couldn't bear to look at this scene anymore, so he turned his head over, as if the quiet river water under the waves could restore his inner tranquility again.

Although the Wujiang River is long, there is a well-equipped sailor boat, but it is just a cup of tea, and the ship will eventually dock, and all thoughts will eventually pass away.

The Han and Tang dynasties have been on guard against each other for many years, so when the ship docked, the Han people had already noticed it, but they should have known the reason, so they were very proud, and it seemed that they had been fighting for many years, and finally won back the greatest glory on the opponent who could not win.

But they do qualify for such things.

Xinyang's sailor captain Tie said goodbye to Liu Xi and the others with a blushing face, clenched his fists in the sighs and ridicule behind him, and made his soldiers turn around and drive to the other side of the carriage where Princess Lan Jin wanted to see through.

Along the way, he met countless cities in Western Hanzhou, and also saw countless sneering eyes, as if because of the marriage of Princess Lan Jin, the Han people saw Liu Si waving his army to the east and taking down Li Tang's capital Jialing.

On the way, Liu Xi ignored the ceremonial officials sent by the Western Han Dynasty and deliberately slowed down the speed of his march, because the closer he got to Chang'an, the more frightened Princess Lanjin Li Mengxiao seemed to be, and the latter, who was weak and sad, was also bedridden on the way.

This kind of appearance was what Liu Xi had planned before, but now Li Mengxiao is not pretending to be sick as he wants, but he is really sick, and even extremely serious for a time, and he is almost angry and stepping on the ghost gate, fortunately, there is Xue Jiang who knows how to use medical skills, otherwise there is no need for Liu Xi to worry about how to make Li Mengxiao pretend to be dead and realistic without revealing his feet.

Three months later, the scorching heat slowly subsided, and the noisy knowledge on the branches that seemed to never stop was gradually hidden.

And Liu Xi and the others are getting closer and closer to Chang'an City.

Although Liu Xi never told Li Mengxiao where she went, she was obviously aware of her whereabouts from the constantly welcoming Western Han Dynasty officials.

The full moon hung between the astrolabes, the moonlight was unbearable to step on, and the late summer night was silently cool.

It turns out that unconsciously, autumn is approaching.

Although there are more Han army handles in the inn, as the escort general of Princess Lan Jin, Liu Xi is naturally not hindered in the slightest.

Passing through the backyard, before climbing the wooden ladder, Liu Xi could see Li Mengxiao on the second floor leaning on the wooden pillar and looking at the west, her expression was so focused, and the moonlight fell on her delicate face, which actually looked like a fool.

"Alas......"

Along the way, Liu Xi can't remember how many times he sighed, there are too many joys and sorrows in the world, and in the end, he is just a layman who can't forget Hongchen's partiality.

Lightly went up to the second floor, and temporarily retreated to the quiet maid Bi'er who was waiting beside Li Mengxiao, Liu Xi broke the silence of these desires and the night, "Princess, if you want, we can rest here for a few more days." ”

After a long time, Li Mengxiao retracted his thoughts in a daze, and smiled sadly with tears, "No matter how strong you are, it's not in Datang, so, whether to stay or not, what's the point?" ”

Hearing this, Liu Xi couldn't help but be speechless, indeed, as Li Mengxiao said, since the moment she set foot on the land of the Western Han Dynasty, she was already in pain and suffering.

For a while, Liu Xi didn't know how to speak.

After a while, it was Princess Lan Jin who took the lead in breaking the silence between the two, "If you entered that place earlier, you could have come out earlier, wouldn't you?" ”

That place is Chang'an.

Nodding, Liu Xi took out a bag from his arms, which contained the pill brought by Xue Jiang, "Princess, this pill is configured by the eldest princess herself, and the medicine is soft, so it will not finally attack after taking it, and the symptoms are like dying of a long-term illness, so even if he is the most powerful imperial doctor in the Han Dynasty, he can't find anything unusual." ”

Taking the brocade bag, Li Mengxiao's teardropping eyes showed a smile for a long time, "I used to wonder what this 'put to death and come back to life' meant, but now, I understand ......"

After saying something again, when Liu Xi turned to leave, he heard Li Mengxiao's voice ringing, "Liu Xi, can I really return to Datang?" ”

Without the slightest hesitation, Liu Xi smiled and nodded, "As long as I'm alive, I can." ”

Hearing this, Li Mengxiao smiled, and the bright moonlight fell, shining her very beautifully, as if she was a flower blooming in the dark night.

Under the night sky, thousands of miles away, in the Zhenxi Wangfu of Xinyang City, Li Fengge, who was imprisoned, was immersed in reading the scriptures, when suddenly, a wind inexplicably penetrated into the house, causing the lights on the table to run wildly, and almost went out.

When Li Fengge raised his head, he found that there was already an old man with white hair and beard in the room.

The old man appeared like this, Li Fengge knew that the other party's cultivation was profound, although he didn't know who came, but he had already guessed the person from the gossip copy embroidered on the other party's robe.

This is a master of Taoism.

"Who killed my apprentice Zhang Shaolu?"

It turned out that the person who came was Zhang Shaolu's master, Li Fengge thought for a moment, but the latter mistakenly regarded his appearance as unwilling to answer, and immediately glared angrily, which suddenly made Li Fengge's chest feel like he had been hit by a heavy hammer, and the pain was abnormal.

"It's Liu Xi......"

With blood between his teeth and mouth, Li Fengge said painfully.

"Where is he?"

As soon as the old man finished asking, his face changed, and he disappeared in the blink of an eye, and where he had stood before, there was a small hole in the roof tiles.

The moonlight descended from the hole, leaving a mischievous circle in the house.

In the study of the Zhenxi Wangfu, the Zhenxi King put the carefully wiped sword into the sheath with a bang, and the murderous aura appeared in the burly figure, and the essence of the tiger's eyes was exposed, staring at the direction in which the old man disappeared.

After two hours, Liu Xi and the others, who continued to set off, finally saw a city with a vague outline.

It was like a lying beast with its fangs open, Chang'an.
