Chapter 52 The Northern Desert Discusses Peace and Affinity
Shen Luochen saw that Sanjiu was also on the boat, and he did not suspect him, so he placed the three members of the Yun family with Sanjiu, and then went to find Weiyang.
From the bow to the stern, from the deck to the bilge, you can't find it. His heart suddenly cooled, and he had to go to Sanjiu again and ask, "Is your young master on the boat?" There was a rare irritation in his voice.
"Young Master Shen, the young master still has something to do here, and it will take two days late to set off. The young master ordered his subordinates to escort Shen Gongzi and Miss Yun to Phoenix City to wait, and they will see you again in a few days! "Sanjiu is neither humble nor arrogant, and treats each other with courtesy.
The boat was sailing in the boundless sea, and the turbulent waves in Shen Luochen's heart were three points better than the turbulent sea, and he leaned on the bow of the boat alone, his heart was broken.
For the first time in his life, Shen Luochen drunk himself and didn't wake up.
Three days after the boat line, Shen Luochen didn't say a word, everyone ate and slept and read as usual, but they were silent and their faces were clear.
Yunxi knew that Weiyang had never been on the boat to accompany her, and she also dropped out of confusion, and that somewhat willful woman was actually extremely soft-minded. She didn't know how to comfort Shen Luochen, and she was restless from then on.
After Shen Luochen and the Yun family left, Cangxin and Feng Sai immediately moved to the back building with Weiyang to settle down. Cang Xin personally supplemented the soup and diet, and after another three days, Weiyang's martial arts recovered most of it.
Feng Shi was busy collecting information from all walks of life, and there was no news back from Wujiu, and the three of them couldn't help but be a little worried.
"The turmoil on the border is not really turmoil, separated by a Lucheng, unless the King of Lucheng unites the King of the Northern Desert to jointly launch an attack on Ningguguan, otherwise it will not be chaotic. However, there is definite news that the king of the Northern Desert will send a princess to Beijing in the near future. Cang Xin read the information collected by the dragon envoy, and picked up the important ones for Weiyang to know.
Weiyang had a military book in his hand, he read it with relish, listened to Cangxin's words, raised his head from the book, smiled lightly on his lips, and gloated: "Chu Jin is in danger!" ”
Cang Xin was a little puzzled, "Although the prince has already established a concubine, there are also two side concubines; The second prince, the third prince and the fifth prince also already have concubines, but there are still six princes and eight princes, why does it have to be Chu Jin? ”
Weiyang smiled and put down the book in his hand, "Beimo sends the princess and relatives, and it will be matched with the position of the concubine to be considered a courtesy." The sixth prince Chu Li is very strategic, in recent years, the emperor intends to cultivate his power to balance the crown prince, if the princess of the Northern Desert is given to the six princes to marry, it is tantamount to boosting the power of his relatives, and how can the emperor allow the emergence of forces that he can't control? In the same way, the prince will do everything in his power to make this matter fall through. Moreover, the six princes have a personal affair with the concubine of Dali Temple Qing Yuanwen, and Yuanwen is his most important confidant; At this stage, he is inseparable from the support of Yuanwen, and Yuanwen's position seems to be inconspicuous, but the implication is widespread. Although the eighth prince has reached the age of marriage, he is brave and unscrupulous, and he is missing a tendon, Xiao Qingqing is unwilling. The eleventh prince was only fifteen years old, and he was frail and sickly, and he was quite young. ”
"But I don't know if the letter says which princess did Beimo send to Beijing to make peace?" Cang Xin turned his head and asked for the sealing sacrifice.
Feng Xi raised his eyes and glanced at Weiyang, "Second princess Xiao Qingqing!" ”
"Oh my God, haha, this time Chu Jin really can't run away!" The smile on Cang Xin's lips widened, and he burst out loud.
Three years ago, Emperor Dongchu had his fiftieth birthday, and the King of Northern Desert sent his younger brother Xiao Rang to celebrate his birthday with two princesses. Until she left Jingbei and returned, Chu Jin only had half a life left, and all her strength was used to avoid Xiao Qingqing's crooked entanglement. After this incident, Chu Jin was laughed at by the son of the capital family for more than a year, and then gradually faded.
"From tomorrow I will be in retreat for ten days, and you two will leave for the capital tomorrow." Weiyang's wounds have healed, and his internal strength has recovered eighty percent, so it's time to return to Beijing.
Cang Xin immediately made a voice to stop him: "Young master, the road is far away, I and Feng Priest don't worry about you walking alone, so it's better to stay here and wait for you to go out of the customs together." Martial arts conference, you are famous all over the world, it is better to be cautious! ”
Weiyang was not reluctant, "Okay, you two will stay here and wait, I will be back in ten days!" ”
After dark, Weiyang changed into night clothes and quietly went out from the back door, disappeared all the way out of the city from the west gate, and galloped into the mountains. It rained on the third watch, and Weiyang stopped on the edge of the cliff. After visually measuring the distance between the cliff and the stone cave, he finally sighed and pulled a vine over the big tree next to him, and grabbed the twist and fell with one hand.
In the next ten days, Weiyang did not take a step out of the stone cave and devoted himself to cultivation. At a young age, the Red Flame Heart has reached its peak, and it is not easy. He also practiced the twelve-style swordsmanship taught by his master repeatedly, and dug deep into the changes. In this seemingly simple twelve-style swordsmanship, each style contains nine different variations, which are introverted and introverted, but also outstanding and proud.
Weiyang was immersed in the subtlety of the swordsmanship and couldn't extricate himself, he could not extricate himself from every move, every move, every change, and he couldn't take care of eating and sleeping, until he carved a total of one hundred and eight changes in the twelve styles of Xiaoyun swordsmanship into his bones, and he could use every move and style independently. I picked up a few advanced martial arts books in the master's collection, and after remembering the moves and formulas, I opened the mechanism in the cave and closed the door, grabbed the vines and flew up the cliff, and after hiding the vines, I unfolded the 'Flying Immortals outside the sky' and returned to Luochuan City.
The sky was about to dawn, and there were a few people scattered at the city gate, either carrying burdens or pushing firewood carts. There was also an old man driving a mule cart with live poultry and pigs.
At this hour, it is not appropriate to jump over the wall into the city, so Weiyang has to stand away from the crowd and lean against the wall, closing his eyes and frowning.
A few horsewhips mixed with the sound of many horses' hooves galloping came into Weiyang's ears, and in a short time, four carts were each dragged by two healthy horses, and more than ten guards with swords were scattered, and they came from afar.
One of the guards went to the gate to inspect it, turned to the first cart and said a few words, and then returned to the group, not rash, but waited quietly.
Weiyang was a little curious, the team seemed to be scattered but very regular. The fourteen people on horseback all had a long breath, sitting upright on their horses, without any slowness.
She looked at the carriage as if she had casually looked at it carefully, it was not very exquisite, but it was also full of wealth, and the wood, cloth, copper hooks and iron used in the carriage were all complete, but there was no dart board or private mark. The horses used to pull the carts were tame, not very tall but stout, and all chestnut or chestnut brown. Only one of the horses in the first car was different, and Weiyang couldn't help but take a closer look.
With the exception of the first car, the other three cars were noticeably heavier, the wheel indentations were a few points heavier, and the horse's breath was noticeably faster.
Weiyang retracted his eyes, still keeping his head down and waiting for the city gate to open, but secretly mobilized his internal force to listen carefully to the movements in the car. There were probably no less than thirty or forty people in the three cars, and the breath was complicated and dull, but it was weak, and most of them should be women. There were two unstable gases in the first car, as if a person without internal strength was galloping long away, and as if the internal force was exhausted after a fight. The curtain shook slightly, and the trunk shook slightly, showing that it had not stopped.
Without waiting for Weiyang to think about it, the city gate opened, and the people outside the city entered the city one after another, and Weiyang mixed in the crowd and slowly walked towards the city, and after turning to the main road, he hid in the shadows, holding his sword.
The four cars did not stop after entering the city, and the handlebar-like whip smashed the horses and walked towards the bustling road in the city. Weiyang remained silent, watching the four cars from a distance and moving out of the main road to the depths of a small alley.
Weiyang was hidden on the roof of a house in the distance, and the carriages and horses were parked outside a small door at the end of the alley. The moment the car stopped, the small door opened, and seven or eight stout men flashed inside, all of whom were bent over and standing outside the door.
Another woman came out, plump and couldn't see her appearance clearly. She opened the curtain of the first car from outside, and a woman in a carmine dress got out of the car first, followed by a man, a beige robe, a rouge jacket on the outside, and a folding fan in his hand, and stepped into the small door.
The several people on horseback stood at the periphery, and the plump woman commanded the few strong men who came out before to pick up the curtains of the last three cars, pull out the women who were tied to the comatose on the cars, and carry them into the courtyard. After six or seven rounds of going back and forth again, a guard urged the handlebar to drive the empty car out of the alley and towards the north of the city.
Weiyang secretly wrote down the location of the small courtyard, looked at the carriage in the distance, and quietly followed behind and went to the north of the city. Fourteen rode and four carts and disappeared at the back door of a large mansion.
Weiyang looked at the manor that covered a large area, and deliberately circled half a circle to the front door, and the corner of his lips was cold because of the two words on the lintel.
Slowly and carelessly walked towards Qingjing Winery, not hurrying.
People who do small business are used to getting up early, and there are already people on the street corners and roadsides. On the small stall where the wontons are boiled, a cloud of white steam with the sound of the pot instantly opens the day, and the sky is already bright.
Cang Xin stood in the back building, recognized his master from a distance, and after ordering people to prepare food and hot water, he personally went downstairs to open the back door and welcomed back the slender figure.
"Cangxin, check the Gu family, be thorough!" Weiyang commanded lightly, but his eyebrows sank into his own thoughts.
Cang Xin was ordered to operate it himself. The young master seldom pays attention to a matter, and since he has been instructed to investigate thoroughly, he must have found something.
Weiyang went upstairs, and Feng Sai had just come back from practice, looking at her thoughtful look, he couldn't help but call her, "Young master? ”
"Go and find out which back door is that little courtyard at the end of the alley behind West Street! I watched from a distance, it was very messy, I was afraid that there was still a courtyard in the courtyard! "Weiyang finally told what he thought to the sacrifice." Be careful, it's not that simple! Then he gave another instruct, and then went into the room to bathe and change clothes, and used some porridge before going to bed.
In the past ten days, all my thoughts have been on martial arts, and I often wake up automatically after sleeping for two hours, and I don't feel tired, but I can't hide the blue and black at the moment.
I didn't sleep well, but I did sleep for a while. Before lunch, Weiyang got up and washed, calmly went downstairs, and sat downstairs to drink tea.
"Young master!" Feng Xi shouted softly in a cold voice, took a white porcelain cup, scalded the cup first, and then slowly poured more than half a cup of hot tea and served it to Weiyang.
Weiyang is wearing a brand-new Yunjin white robe, with a high stand-up collar placket, a neat row of Yunjin buckles, double-folded cuffs, and a tight waist. lined with snow-white soft silk middle shirt and trousers, a pair of hard-soled boots and shoes, and a mutton fat white jade hairpin pinned to the tied hair; A palm-sized piece of purple jade hangs on his waist, which is particularly eye-catching.
The jade bone fan, which originally never left his hand, has not been framed since the Yun family recognized Shen Luochen and broke it on the day. That face is her father's handwriting, and she has never left her body.
For a while, I thought of that handsome boy, thinking that he should have arrived in Phoenix City these days. She gave him a chance, and abducted people to her territory, and her selfishness, one day he will figure it out.
Weiyang's heart tugged at the pain, and the eyes that never showed their emotions easily were contaminated with misery at this time, and there was a faint sadness all over his body, and he couldn't help himself for a while.
No matter how scheming she is, she is only a sixteen-year-old woman, the age when love is just beginning.
Cang Xin hurried back from outside with his robe in one hand.
"Young master?" Cang Xin had never seen Weiyang's appearance at this time, his slender body was a little too tense, his face was calm, and he was a little worried that the teacup that she held too tightly would hurt her hand.
Weiyang slowly raised his eyes, and the person returned to his lazy appearance, and replied softly and seemingly nonchalantly: "Hmm! ”
The palm-resisting person personally set the lunch, and the three of them ate at the same table.
Weiyang was depressed in her heart, she looked at the food in her bowl in a daze, and finally sighed secretly and put down her chopsticks, no longer forcing herself.
