Ziqi took Lai'er to the largest wine house, and when Lai'er sat down, Ziqi said seriously: "What do you want to eat, you just have to say, today will definitely make you happy!" ”

"Are you telling the truth?" Lyle's eyes widened.

Ziqi smiled and said, "Do you really think how stingy I am?" It's just to amuse you. ”

Lai'er smiled slyly, "I know, you're a good person!" However, what I want to eat most is the noodles from my hometown, and I have never tasted them again after so many years of wandering. ”

Ziqi hurriedly called the shopkeeper and asked for a bowl of noodles for Lai'er and cooked crucian carp. remembered that the last time she ate bamboo shoot chicken, she looked like she was relishing, so she ordered another dish for her, and asked for wine for herself.

Seeing that he ordered bamboo shoot chicken again, Lai'er asked suspiciously, "Do you love this so much?" Didn't you eat it last time? ”

Ziqi took the wooden chopstick and handed it to her and said, "I see that you love to eat very much, so I will give you another order." ”

Lai'er said embarrassedly: "Actually, I love to eat everything, don't you know that I have been begging for food with my father?" If you can eat enough, it's the New Year! ”

His nose was sour, but he was the least despicable to the poor. I remember going to volunteer teaching during the previous vacation, and when I saw children who were not well fed and clothed, I couldn't wait to give everything I had.

Ziqi brought the noodles and vegetables to Lai'er, "Eat, as long as you are willing to eat, I will let you eat it in the future, and you won't suffer anymore!" ”

With tears in her eyes, Lai'er sneered and said, "You really look like my father!" ”

Zi Qi took the wine and poured himself a drink, Lai'er stopped his chopsticks and said, "This noodle is delicious, but it is still not as delicious as Bo Guguo's noodle!" ”

Half a glass of wine in the sub-period, I felt a lot warmer in my body, "Lai'er, eat quickly, it should be cold in a while." After eating noodles, you will be a year older, you are all big girls, and it is time to get married during the Chinese New Year. ”

Lai'er's face was slightly red, "I don't want to get married, what should I do if it's not good for me to marry?" I know that only you are the only one who treats me well, whether I am called Hanako or a princess, you will treat me well. ”

Ziqi was speechless, and remembered Dan'er again. I felt sad for a while, and the wine drank quickly. During the Yin Shang period, the etiquette system was also very strict, for example, the marriage ceremony system required men to marry at the age of 20 and women to marry at the age of 15. Of course, the etiquette system is the etiquette system, and the advocacy is advocated, like Jiang Ziya, who has to be fifty or sixty years old to get married, no one cares.

Lai'er smiled and said, "I'm full, I've never been so happy, this is my happiest birthday." Sub-period, do you have the happiest thing, tell me! ”

Ziqi thought about it, and couldn't tell her about racing, bars, and pickling girls. I picked up some interesting stories about hunting in Jingshan and told her.

Lai'er listened with relish, her eyebrows fluttering. "Ziqi, in the future, you will take me to Jingshan to hunt, and I will take you to Bogu Kingdom to see the sea, okay?"

Ziqi happily agreed, "Of course it's good, I really miss Jingshan." ”

Lai'er smiled charmingly: "Then let's make a decision!" She looked outside, and it was getting dark. Pulled up the child period and said, "Let's go, it's time for us to get down to business!" ”

The early winter in Hokyo was already cold, and Layle couldn't help but shiver when she walked out of the store. Ziqi hurriedly draped the sable fur given by the queen over his shoulders.

Lai'er smiled sweetly, "Do you know which post house Cangxu lives in?" Ziqi nodded, and the two of them took advantage of the night and ran to the post house after a while. Lai'er saw that there was a post guard at the door of the post house, and pulled Ziqi around to the backyard.

She patted her shoulder and pointed to the ridge. Then he ran two steps, lightly jumped up, went up to the wall, and then jumped again, and landed lightly on the ridge, and then turned around and beckoned to Ziqi.

Ziqi was speechless for a moment, and he couldn't imagine that this little princess was so good. I had to take the flying claws from my waist, throw them on an elm tree in the courtyard, and then run along the rope to the roof of the house, and then collect the flying claws. Lai'er whispered in her ear and said, "You're so stupid, do you want me to teach you?" ”

Ziqi nodded, "How long does it take to learn?" ”

Lai'er said proudly: "It takes three years if you don't have a foundation, and one year if you have a foundation." Ziqi nodded again.

Lai'er whispered: "You wait for me, let you come down, you go down again!" After saying that, he looked into the courtyard, and while the post guard outside the door was not paying attention, his body floated silently into the courtyard, hiding behind a tree.

She looked around and beckoned, and Ziqi jumped off the ridge, her body still in the air, and Lai'er reached out to support him under his armpit, so that she didn't make a sound.

Seeing that the light was on in the room, Laile slowly hid out the window, gently clicked a small hole in the window paper with her fingernails, and looked inside. Then he returned to Ziji's side, "There are no attendants, only Cangxu sleeps alone!" ”

After speaking, he took out two handkerchiefs from his sleeves, one covering his face, and the other covering his face. Laughing softly, he pulled the dagger from his belt and returned to the door.

He gently inserted the dagger into the crack of the door, picked it a few times, and gently pushed it with both hands, and the door opened a crack and he flashed into the house. Ziqi was afraid that she was in danger, so he hurriedly followed.

Lai'er took a few steps to the bed and put a dagger against Cangxu's neck, "Don't scream, scream and cut your neck!" ”

Cangxu was so frightened that his mouth opened wide, the old wound on Cangxu's shoulder had not healed, even if there was no injury, he didn't dare to move, and the dagger tip made his neck hurt coldly.

She opened the sheepskin pouch that Hetuo had left behind, took a blue pill from it, and stuffed it into Cangxu's mouth. I patted it lightly with my hand and swallowed it immediately.

Cangxu was so frightened that his eyes widened, "What are you doing here?" ”

With a slight push on Lyle's hand, a drop of blood flowed down the dagger. "Don't speak, you listen, you were given a chronic poison just now, and it will attack after half a month. If you want to live, you have to listen to us. Cangxu turned pale and nodded.

Lai'er glanced at Ziqi and said with a smile: "If Xibohou proposes to you, you will say, Princess Ji Huan is too ugly, don't agree, do you understand?" Cangxu nodded, "Understood!" ”

"If you are obedient, I will send you an antidote within half a month. If you dare to play tricks, you will die, remember? Lyle said viciously.

Cangxu nodded vigorously, Lai'er withdrew the dagger in her hand, waved her hand to Ziqi, and the two quietly exited the room, and climbed over the wall in the backyard and burrowed into the darkness.

Back at the inn, the two looked at each other and smiled.

Ziqi took off his scarf, "Lai'er, you are so bad!" At least worse than me! ”

Lai'er pouted, "If I hadn't been like this, would I have survived to this day?" My uncle wants to kill me, and Taibu of Chaoge wants to kill me, all of which they forced me to become like this. ”

Ziqi is full of sympathy for Lai'er, "However, your light kung fu can indeed stand alone in the world." ”

Lai'er said proudly: "You don't know this, there are dozens of Fang countries in the Dongyi clan, and almost every Fang country has the ability to take care of the house, otherwise, how can they survive?"

For example, the Huaiyi tribe is the most powerful in taming beasts, the Birdyi tribe is the most powerful in using poison, and the Wuyi tribe is the most powerful in using Gu. My mother clan is a member of the Toyi tribe, and Bogu is also a branch of the Toyi tribe, so I will identify poisons. Now, you get the idea, right? ”

Ziqi secretly claimed to be strange, but he didn't expect that there were so many good things in ancient times, all of which were lost in later generations and drowned in the yellow sand of history. "So how did you practice light skills?"

Lai'er pulled Ziqi to sit down and said: "This is the ancestor of our Bogu country, our ancestors lived by hunting, and the mountains are high and dense, if you can't chase wild beasts, you have to starve to death, and over time you have practiced light skills.

In fact, it is not difficult to practice, first of all, we must practice breathing, that is, practicing qi, opening up the meridians of the human body, and stimulating the potential of the human body.

Then it is time to practice leg work, fill a large bamboo basket with sand, and run around the edge of the basket every day. Reduce the amount of sand every other day until the sand in the basket empties out, and you can still run around the edge without the basket moving, and your kung fu is done. ”

Ziqi looked hopeful, "Lai'er, how long will it take for me to practice." ”

Lai'er looked at him with a smile and said, "You have practiced foreign kung fu, and it should be said that your skills are still very good." It should be done within a year. ”

Lai'er said, pulling Ziqi's hands, "Come, sit like me, face me!" ”

Ziqi felt that Lai'er's hands were warm and soft, and he was very comfortable, and his heart fluttered, "What, are you going to practice the combined double cultivation with me?" ”

Lai'er looked confused, "What kind of combined double cultivation?" ”

Ziqi hurriedly put away his shameless attitude, "It's nothing, I'm talking nonsense, you teach me, right?" ”

Seeing Ziqi's unnatural expression, Lai'er seemed to have noticed something, and glared at him fiercely, "Don't think nonsense, you must practice Tu Na to be like a stop of water, selfless, concentric with heaven and earth, and one with nature." ”

After that, I passed the exercises to the sub-period step by step, but there was a delicate and incomparable little beauty sitting in front of me, and the sub-period was distracted several times. Angry, Lai'er twisted his ears and yelled, "If you don't concentrate anymore, I won't teach you!" ”

The child hurriedly calmed down, and after a while, his thoughts were like water, and there was no self and no her outside his body.

Until dawn, although the two of them had not slept all night, they felt refreshed and refreshed. Ziqi slowly opened his eyes, and saw the morning light entering the room, shining on Lai'er's face, the white clothes matched, and the white and red face was like a delicate peach blossom.

Ryle smiled shyly when she opened her eyes and expected herself to be stunned. Pulled him up and said, "Insist on practicing like this in the future, and it will be successful in March." ”

Ziqi was worried about Li Jiao's marriage, and asked Lai'er with a smile, "What else are we going to do today?" Do you want to buy fruit for those children? ”

Lai'er shook her head and said with a smile, "No need, they will continue to give porridge in the suburbs of Li, you don't have to do anything, just play with me, let's go hunting outside the city." ”

The two of them washed and ate, took their swords and longbows, and rode out of the city on the black wind.

At this moment, Xibohou Jichang sat in the secret room and was silent, staring at the calculations on the ground at a loss. Ji Fa stood behind Ji Chang and wanted to speak several times, but he was afraid of disturbing Ji Chang's thoughts, so he closed his mouth again.

Ji Chang threw the calculation chip in his hand to the ground and said, "Forget it, I still can't calculate it." Could it be that your mother misremembered his birth date? ”

Ji Fa hurriedly said: "Probably not, when my mother asked about the birth of the child, I was on the side, how could it be wrong!" ”

Ji Chang frowned, "Could it be that this kid is an outlier?" The art of divination for his father has always been tried and tested, and he can't even see that he has a penny, and he can't be like it at all. Wei Zi Qi is ambitious, but his talent is limited, and he has a backbone in the back of his head, so this son is not to be feared; Wei Zhongyan is nothing more than a mediocre person; Zishou is a wonderful, brave, smart, and eloquent. However, he is a stubborn man, who does not accept advice, and is not a perfect king; Only this fourth prince is in his sonhood, his behavior is perverse, but his scheming is quite deep, you see that he killed Hetuo in the school field, he has the power of thunder, and he is not dragging mud and water at all, this person is not simple! ”

Ji Fa's eyes were murderous, "Father, it's better for us to find a way to get rid of him, so as not to leave future troubles." ”

Ji Chang shook his head, "It's not necessary, the position of Crown Prince Yin Shang is not his turn yet." ”

Ji Fa bowed down and asked, "Father, can you calculate how much Shangwang Yangshou is today?" ”

Ji Chang has the sadness of a rabbit and a dead fox, "It's not much, in less than a month, his limit will be over." We've been fighting each other for so long, and I still haven't had a chance to defeat him. In the end, no one can fight the heavens. ”

Ji Fa's eyes lit up, "Father, if the Shang King collapses, whether it is Wei Ziqi ascending the throne or Zishou ascending the throne, it will be the weakest time for the royal court." It is better for us to take advantage of the country's demise and send troops to approach Chaoge, or have a fifty percent chance of winning. ”

Ji Fa glanced at him, "As the saying goes, a hundred-legged insect dies but does not stiffen, and Yin Shang's qi is not exhausted." You are still too young, and you will suffer when you are young and vigorous. You have to learn to be patient, you have to learn to judge the situation.

You think I don't want revenge? Your great-ancestor killed Wu Yi, and Wen Ding killed your grandfather Ji Li, and this blood debt will be liquidated sooner or later. However, the time has not yet come.

If you want to achieve great things, you can't be impetuous, and Chonghou Hu is eyeing him right under his nose, if this person is not removed, Xiqi will never have peace. Besides, with your mother here, she won't agree to conquer Chaoge, so let's think about it in the long run! ”

Ji Fa nodded yes, "It's the child who is reckless, the day before yesterday, Chaoge sent a message that Hong Yao (hóng yāo) and Tai Dian were coming to defect, and they asked what their father meant." ”

Ji Chang waved his hand, "Tell them that now is not the time, and they will play a greater role in Chaoge than in Xiqi." Let them not rush and see the timing. ”

The father and son were talking, and the chamberlain played outside the door: "Back to the Hou Ye, General Nangong has arrived!" ”

Ji Chang hurriedly shouted, "Hurry up and invite General Nangong to come in!" ”

Nangong Shi pushed the door in, and was about to give a salute, but Ji Chang hurriedly stopped, "General Nangong, how are things going?" ”

Nangong Shi looked embarrassed, "Master Hou, I went to see Cangxu." However, he refused to marry and did not agree. ”

Ji Chang and Ji Fa looked at each other.

Ji Fa hurriedly asked, "What did he say?" ”

Nangong Shi swallowed his saliva, "Cangxu said that the school competition has come to an end, and he doesn't dare to agree to this kind of marriage that is not justified; He also said that Princess Ji Huan was ugly, and it was really difficult to obey her fate. ”

Ji Fa's face turned green, "Did he really say that?" ”

Nangong Shi replied: "It's true! ”

Ji Chang was overjoyed and angry, waved his hand and asked, "Is Zhai Si, the prince of Yiqu, here?" Invite him here, and say that this marquis will summon him! ”

Nangong Shi hurriedly replied: "Master Hou, Zhai Si returned to Yiqu Country yesterday!"

Ji scolded angrily: "It's all a group of cowardly people!" ”

Ji Chang was speechless.

Suddenly, the little waiter outside shouted in a panic: "Go back to Hou Ye, Mrs. Shaoshu asked Hou Ye to go quickly, and Gong Ji Huan will see you soon!" ”
