Three years is not a long time, nor is it short, but it is enough for a lot to happen.

In the first year, Princess Danyang of Xiliang made peace, and Xiliang signed an alliance with Daming, and there was no war for ten years.

But this does not mean that the borders of the Ming Dynasty are quiet, small countries continue to invade, but Xiliang, as an ally, stood by and watched, and the Ming sent troops, and the leader was not the King of Qin, but the King of Ming County, Wei Yan......

The king of Mingjun was like a bamboo, and in five months, he captured seven cities of the enemy country in a row, and forced the monarch of the enemy country to kneel down at the head of the city and beg for mercy, but he was beheaded by the king of Mingjun without changing his face. Emperor Yunjing was happy, and the king of Mingjun began to control the military power in his hands from then on.

King Mingjun went all the way north, and successively broke through several small countries around Xiliang, and made him bow down to the Ming Dynasty, saying that Xiliang, who was surrounded in the middle, did not dare to make any more moves.

In the second year, Qin Ningxiang, the first beauty of Chang'an, and Wei Xun, the son of King Qin, got married, and got married in June, but they didn't want Qin Ningxiang to suddenly get sick and stay sick in bed, and the marriage was postponed.

In August, Emperor Yunjing issued an edict, and Wei Zhuo, the third prince, was established as the prince of the Ming Dynasty, and was named Mingde, and the Qin family lost power.

In October, although the king of Mingjun returned to Chang'an to report on his work, Emperor Yunjing gave him a marriage, and wanted to tie the knot with the daughter of the Liu family.

In December, the king of southern Xinjiang was in turmoil, the tribes were divided, the royal power was scattered, like a plate of scattered sand, and the civil strife in southern Xinjiang began.

In the third year, the second prince of southern Xinjiang inherited the throne, with a violent temperament and cruel methods.

In February, the king of southern Xinjiang sent troops to the Ming Dynasty, and the king of Ming led his troops south, and the two armies fought.

The people of southern Xinjiang made good use of Gu poison and hid in the woods full of poisonous fog, and the Ming army retreated several times, and the two armies fell into a stalemate.

In October, the king of Mingjun rearranged his troops, pretended to be defeated, led the king of southern Xinjiang to pursue, and finally captured Chu Xu, the king of southern Xinjiang, and the southern Xinjiang was once again leaderless.

In December, Xiao Nanshan, a national teacher in southern Xinjiang, appeared and surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, and went to the Ming Dynasty with his envoys in the spring of the following year......

The warm spring sun poured into the room through the hollow carving of the window coffin, and the woman who was painting on the table put down the sheep's hair pen in her hand and couldn't help but breathe hot air into her hand to soothe her frozen fingers.

"The charcoal fire is coming, it's coming!" Suddenly, the door of the house was kicked open from the outside, and Chu Li held a heavy charcoal basin in both hands, and did not forget to hang a small hand stove on his arm.

He put the charcoal basin in a corner, and then handed over the hand stove, and said, "Senior sister, cover it quickly, I spent a lot of effort to get the golden silk charcoal." ”

Now that spring is approaching, the weather is getting warmer, and it is difficult to find charcoal merchants, let alone luxury golden silk charcoal.

Seeing that Chu Li's face was like a cat, Shen Yuan couldn't help laughing, beckoned to him, and said, "Senior brother, sit." ”

Chu Li was not polite, he sat down next to Shen Yuan, looked at the picture scroll spread out on the table, his eyes lit up, and said: "The painting is so fast, in this way, it can be completed before leaving for Chang'an." ”

Shen Yuan nodded, then took out his handkerchief from his sleeve, and reached out to help Chu Li carefully wipe the ashes off his face, "If Senior Brother's appearance is seen by Master, he will definitely be punished." ”

Chu Li grinned, "Anyway, Master is not at home today." ”

"Master's whereabouts are uncertain, maybe he is outside the courtyard now." Shen Yuan reminded, "Senior brother, go in and change your clothes." ”

Chu Li scratched his head, blushed and laughed twice, "Did Senior Sister say last time that she wanted to make clothes for me?" ”

"But I've been busy with this painting recently, and I'll make my brother's clothes for you after we go to Chang'an." Shen Yuan tilted his head and explained.

Chu Li responded, then got up and went to another room to change clothes.

Shen Yuan looked at the trees in the courtyard outside that were pumping new shoots, she had actually only woken up for two months.

There is only one life-sustaining lamp in the world, which can recall the soul and bring the dead back to life, Xiao Nanshan took it out to save her, and Chu Li spent three years guarding the lamp for her and letting her continue to live.

The three-year blank period made her unable to adapt to the outside world, so she could only listen to Chu Li and her slowly talk about some things she should know every day, including Wang Weiyan of Mingjun.

Chu Li said that Wei Yan knelt down the 9,999 stone steps of the White Horse Temple for her, kneeling in three steps, and kowtowing in seven steps. Later, because he angered Emperor Yunjing and King Qin, he was deposed as the son of King Qin and became today's King of Mingjun.

In this regard, Shen Yuan nodded indifferently, there was no more love in her eyes, and she said, "That's fine, I will slowly expel him from here." ”

When Shen Yuan said this, he pointed to his own heart.

Her feud with Wei Yan was broken three years ago. Wei Yan failed her, and she didn't let him have a good time, so it was even.

Shen Yuan lowered her eyes, and her cold hand was placed on the small hand stove, gradually warming. Wearing a white snow civet velvet coat on his body, a pink and white satin skirt on his lower body, embroidered with a little peach blossom on it, and the long hair like a waterfall was pulled up with a jade hairpin to facilitate painting, leaving a bunch hanging down on his chest, his little face was beautiful and beautiful, a pair of peach blossom eyes were clear and longing, and he smiled lightly, but he couldn't smile as much as his eyes, even when he faced Chu Li just now, it was like this.

Chu Li went to the back room to change his clothes and came in again, and when he came in, he grabbed a snake with his bare hands, and said to Shen Yuan: "Senior sister, I just saw a snake on the eaves in the back, it looks pretty good, I can make soup for you to drink if I remove my head." ”

Shen Yuan turned his head, twitched the corners of his mouth, resisted the fear of wanting to run away, and said, "Senior brother, this snake ...... It seems to have been domesticated. ”

Snakes, scorpions, and spiders can be seen everywhere in southern Xinjiang, after all, the people of southern Xinjiang offer them as holy relics.

"Huh? Why can't I see it? Chu Li grabbed the head of the snake with one hand and the tail of the snake with the other, and he didn't see anything unusual after looking at it for a long time.

Shen Yuan got up and moved away from Chu Li without a trace, she was really a little afraid of snakes, scorpions or something, but she wanted to save face......

"I guess those old guys want to capture you and go back to the throne." Shen Yuan poured herself a cup of tea to suppress her shock, and the old guy in her mouth was talking about the important ministers of Southern Xinjiang.

Chu Li glanced at Shen Yuan and said lightly: "I'm not the son of the previous king of Southern Xinjiang, they don't want to push me up to clean up the mess." ”

Shen Yuan pursed her lips and chuckled, and said, "Yes, anyway, there is a master in southern Xinjiang now, and there is no chaos, just do what the master tells the two of us to do." ”

"Listen to Master and Senior Sister, I'll go and make snake soup for you." Chu Li answered, tied the snake in his hand in a knot, and then walked out quickly.

Shen Yuan saw that the snake was not dangling in front of her eyes, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, Nanjiang was really scary, she had better hurry up and go back to Chang'an.
