Chapter 216: Sword (1/2) (3400)

The spring cold has gone, and the famous families of Tianjing City in Daqin have gathered together, each with its own means, and the road is still an ordinary early spring scene, but the courtyards have already been full of flowers.

Flowers bloom early, people who are interested in fame also start to move around early, the spring test is imminent, at least have a face to face with the famous family, if you can get acquainted with the royal family, after passing the spring test, the road will go much smoother.

In front of the gate of the prince of Great Qin, it can already be seen that many scribes with a clean name can enter and exit, but according to this, the place not far away is quite cold, and there are two tall Xuanwu guards guarding the door, which makes people dare not stop here.

This was the former prince's mansion outside the palace, but it was not taken back at this time, and it directly became the eldest princess's other courtyard.

Li Wanshun, the eldest princess of Daqin, is the eldest daughter of the first prince, the eldest grandson of the emperor, extremely favored, when the prince was drunk, he even once said that he would marry her in the future, such as a fire peony, to let his daughter be rich and peerless, stretching and lingering, between the world, only this way.

And after His Majesty the Emperor ascended the throne, he never neglected this eldest princess of Great Qin, and for several years, the rewards have been continuous, and there is a share of this princess in tributes everywhere.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see the eldest princess's alienation from Her Majesty.

However, in addition to the alienation, he did not make any moves as some people expected, and the reward was accepted, whether it was from his grandfather or his second uncle, all of them did not refuse.

In addition, I just like to read the Taoist scriptures, plant flowers, and occasionally chant poems against each other, and I can also write about the eight windows of the clouds and birds, and the forty states of Xichuan are strong. The generals are not greedy for Qiang horses, and at the highest level, they see such atmospheric poems on the side.

At that time, it would make everyone who stared at the eldest daughter of the prince remember that this eldest princess had also studied from the general of the Great Qin Zhuguo back then, and had also been to the frontier, with a pair of tender hands, she had also held a big bow and lowered a fierce horse, not an ordinary daughter's family.

It's just a pity that Yuwen was later released to Fufeng County, and he was the general of the Great Qin Guozhu, but he was greatly restricted, and he couldn't easily enter Beijing, and he couldn't see each other a few times a year, and the eldest princess's martial arts were not as powerful as they were at the beginning.

In addition, when the queen was alive, she also smiled and said that she was born like this, and the wind standard Qinghui, why do you need to practice martial arts, isn't it embarrassing for many border generals? The eldest princess put down her sword, and just learned some elegant things with this imperial sister-in-law, and now she has been for more than ten years.

In the coldness of the courtyard, there was a young man dressed in black who walked in briskly from the Northern Palace, holding a wooden box in both hands.

The two Great Qin guards guarding the mansion only greeted with a smile when they saw this, and called out, 'Dingsong, why are you so late today', jokingly, and did not stop them.

Ding Song saw the eldest princess in a plain dress in the courtyard west of the mansion. Relieved, he slowed down and didn't disturb the woman who was painting quietly.

Behind the eldest princess, there stood a Dao aunt with a sword, who was so heroic that she couldn't tell her age, and she glanced at him.

Dingsong stopped, and stood in place with the wooden box in both hands.

This mansion originally had a better and more secluded courtyard, it was originally built when the prince was alive, it gathered all the skilled craftsmen, allowing the scenery of the world in one place, one scene at a time, changing the scenery step by step, the prince named it himself, a total of seventy-two scenes, corresponding to the seventy-two counties of Daqin, it can be said to be complacent.

After the new emperor ascended the throne, the eldest princess, in order to avoid suspicion, moved out of the courtyard that she liked most when she was a teenager, and brought nothing with her, except for a swing with extravagant materials but extremely rough workmanship.

And because if it is in the south, it is inevitable that there is some taste of being a minister to the north, so only in the west, thousands of years ago, the great master of the Daomen rode a bull west to Hangu Pass, and now she is in the west, the old Taoist priest in the capital once said with a smile, the eldest princess is dedicated to the Tao, waiting for the purple qi to come from the east.

The day after the old Taoist priest said this, the queen sent someone to send a number of Taoist classics, among which there were many old Taoist priests who could attract people who were scary to cry wolves and cherish the lonely books, and there were also many high-quality jewelry and costumes.

After the eldest princess accepted it, she still dressed up in plain clothes every day, without decoration, but always held the scriptures.

The queen smiled and blamed her for living too lightly, and she really became a fairy by accident, she was reluctant, so she always pulled the eldest princess around to enjoy the scenery, but the relationship seemed to be getting closer and closer.

Seven years ago, the Empress died.

Li Wanshun closed the pen and painted the scene, but a person was faintly visible in the scene.

Dao Gu exclaimed:

"The princess's painting is becoming more and more exquisite, although she can only see her shadow, but she can already see the demeanor of the woman in the mountains."

Ding Song was slightly stunned, a little puzzled.

He cast his eyes on the picture scroll, you can see the green mountains, you can see the sky, although the back of the sky and the earth is fluttering, but its wind and bones are erect, it is obvious that it is a certain scholar and scribe who has learned the principles of the sage, where is the woman?

Li Wanshun put down her pen, shook her head and smiled:

"It's full of craftsmanship, where is it as good as you say."

She still has half a mask on her face, and only half of her face is exposed, but the half of her face is already the best in the world.

Ding Song lowered his head, not daring to look directly.

Li Wanshun saw the wooden box in his hand and smiled gently:

"Order, what did you bring?"

The young man lifted the wooden box in his hand and said softly:

"Today, the Emperor Taishang ordered his subordinates to go to Wangyun Pavilion to play the pipa song together, and then said that he heard that His Royal Highness had recently obtained the seeds of a strange flower, and he thought that His Highness had searched for the treasure mud in southern Xinjiang, and said that if it could be planted, it would be sent to his old man."

Li Wanshun sighed, washed her hands, and gently opened the wooden box.

Fingers gently picked up some soil, grinded, fingertips felt a unique touch, motioned to Dingsong to cover the wooden box, and said:

"Indeed it is a fine clay."

"The hundred tribes in southern Xinjiang regard this thing as more valuable than gold and jade, and when they use it, they only bury a little under a piece of soil, and they can hook up the earth's qi, and the emperor's grandfather has brought so much, it must be nonsense again."

Dao Gu smiled:

"Only the eldest princess in the world can make His Majesty the Emperor come here."

Li Wanshun was helpless and said: "I would rather the imperial grandfather not be like this, he can get so many southern Xinjiang treasure mud, the imperial grandfather must have raised many subordinates with excellent martial arts, this can't be hidden from the emperor." ”

She is only called the emperor for the second uncle who spoils herself and is even above the crown prince of the dynasty.

Dao Gu didn't care, and said: "His Majesty the Emperor Taishang cultivates martial artists, and His Majesty must know it, but His Majesty the Emperor Taishang is only to find some treasures in the rivers and lakes, and also to protect His Highness, otherwise it will ......"

When she said this, she felt speechless and closed her mouth and did not continue.

But whether it is Dingsong who went out of the battlefield in Xinjiang, or Li Wanshun understands.

One mountain does not tolerate two tigers This is the simplest truth, and His Majesty the current emperor of Great Qin may tolerate some of his father's actions out of guilt.

But if the emperor's behavior is too obvious, or excessive, then His Majesty the Emperor, who can sweep through the countries and overwhelm the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, will definitely not be hated.

Now His Majesty, a younger and more outstanding Emperor, wants to sweep away the power of the Emperor Taishang, there is almost no difficulty, it can only be said to be devastating.

After all, the old man is now just playing music and drinking in the Taiji Palace every day, indulging in the woman's alcohol, and when he is happy, he is sad, sometimes laughing and crying, almost like those ancient mad people.

She almost forgot what her imperial grandfather was like when she was a teenager, she only remembered that it didn't seem to be so indulgent, and she thought that he was the most traumatized by what happened back then.

The eldest son was killed, and the second son was forced into the palace.

Li Wanshun's thoughts were a little depressed in her heart, but her expression remained unchanged, and she chuckled:

"Besides, is there any news that can relieve the boredom?"

Ding Song breathed a sigh of relief and responded:

"Yes."

"This year's sword list has also been discharged, and when the subordinates left, His Majesty the Emperor asked his subordinates to bring a copy over, saying that Your Highness, you must like it."

As he spoke, he took out a scroll and handed it over.

Dao Gu took it, took two steps, unfolded this sword list for Li Wanshun, and looked closer.

There are the most warriors who use swords to make swords in the rivers and lakes of Daqin, and the sword list is evaluated every five years.

Both swords are divided into two parts: the main list and the sub-list, and in addition, there is also a list of 100 soldiers, which records the rest of the blade masters.

Grandmasters in the main list can also be entered, and in the sub-list, they are selected from the younger generation of martial artists under the age of 30.

Dao Gu only glanced at it, then sighed softly and said with a smile:

"I never thought that Pei Jiansheng hadn't been on the list this time, but it's strange."

Li Wanshun said with a smile: "Pei Jiansheng has always been crazy, I think it is because he has been walking around the rivers and lakes in these years and has no achievements. ”

Dao Gu nodded and looked at the sword list.

Glancing at the back of the sword list, among the sub-lists, the leader was named Qianshan Si, she remembered that he was the most outstanding of the disciples of the Tianshan Sword Sect in this generation, and he traveled down the mountain three years ago, and it seemed that he had indeed made a lot of names.

"I didn't think that he was on the list too."

Out of his mind, he heard Li Wanshun sigh lightly, collected his mind, and when his eyes fell, he saw a line of handwriting in the thirteenth place on the sword list.

Wang Anfeng, a native of Forgotten Immortal County.

Dao Gu's expression was slightly condensed.

It's him......

……………………………………

Leaving the candle dragon habitat, everyone walked along the main road all the way to the east for a while, and then turned around and went straight in the direction of the south road of the Great Qinjiang River, along the way Lin Qiaofu saw many things that had only been seen in books before, and was very happy.

But he also found that Wang Anfeng, who was at the forefront, had been pondering from time to time since the day he left the Jade Ruin Temple, and he didn't speak for an hour or two.

It's anomalous.

When they set off from Qingfeng, this young man who was so good at roasting fish and meat would always reduce his speed, lean against the carriage, and smile at the corner of his mouth, introducing them to the scenery along the way and the human relationship that needs to be paid attention to when walking the rivers and lakes outside.

Now only Yu Chijie is left talking.

As he spoke, he would go far away, Wang Anfeng would always talk about the terroir, what are the beautiful scenery and delicacies, but this family only tells the story of the wind and snow, the beauty of the Oiran, every time Lu Baiping is annoyed, he has to lean out and knock his head with the scabbard.

But because of this, it was quite lively along the way.

Because he was walking along the official road, he didn't meet any thieves and thieves who didn't have long eyes on the road and dared to block the road, but in seven or eight days, he could already see the Guancheng of Guangwu County in Daqin.

Guancheng stands majestically, out of this city, is quite a vast wasteland boundary, the terrain is not flat enough, it is not suitable for farming, there are not many people to live, in the farthest direction, you have to walk two or three hundred miles, you will see the Guancheng of other counties.

This is the division of the boundaries between counties, and many years earlier, it was the border between countries, and the wasteland was a buffer, and it was a yellow sand battlefield where soldiers attacked and fought in the city.

Guangwu County Guancheng is different from Fufeng, far less rough and heroic than Fufeng, but the majestic and quiet place is beyond it, Wang Anfeng looked at this Guancheng, and took the initiative to speak:

"Let's go."

"After a few days of rest in the city, and after a few days in the wilderness, you will be able to reach the edge of several counties in Gangnam Province."

Uncle Taijian shook the reins lightly, and the carriage moved forward slowly.
