Chapter Ninety-Four: Nanzhao Wangcheng

On this day, my mind was chaotic, the formation drill did not go very smoothly, and I gradually lost my patience.

"Shadow?" Weiyang threw the purple bamboo calculation chip in his hand and raised his voice to call people.

The afterimage is under the porch, "Young master! ”

"Clean up, let's go to Nanzhao Wangcheng to have fun!" As he spoke, Weiyang put away the chips on the table and went to the inner room.

The afterimage returned to his room without moving, and came out in a few moments. I saw that he was dressed in a batik coarse cloth blue coat, his hair was tied up on the top and a little messy braid, his forehead was wrapped with black cloth, and his hands and face were slightly black and red.

Weiyang also changed into the same coarse cloth men's clothes, with a black wide belt tied around his waist, wide-legged pants under it, and leggings wrapped with black cloth.

The two took advantage of the fact that the sky was still dark, and they hurried all the way to the southwest.

The city of Nanzhao is in the southwest of Linduan, and it still takes two or three days to pass through the forest with the martial arts of the two. Weiyang traveled a lot in this section of the woodland, and the afterimage followed her footsteps as best she could, and entered the city after a day and night.

The southern land is low and wet, the cultivated land is limited and there is no harvest, and there is no prosperity in Linchuan in the city, even the twelve major cities cannot be compared, and probably even the county town of Dongchu is one and a half points stronger than here.

The battlefield ahead did not affect life in the city, and there were still small stalls on the streets, with simple handicrafts, and occasionally elderly women, with their faces wrinkled and black, and small stalls selling silverware, all of which were rough and unpolished.

Weiyang looked at the simple and clumsy jewelry, but it was also fresh, so he wanted to take a closer look.

Before the man reached the stall, he heard the sound of galloping horses' hooves mixed with the sound of whips coming from afar, and in a moment he was already close enough to see the appearance of a horse.

A group of more than ten people came from the city gate, and the two of them mixed into the crowd and raised their eyes to take a closer look.

I saw that the leader was a woman in red, and the light veil loomed. A bunch of red gauze hair hung long at the top of her head, and she pulled the left half of her face to cover half of her face, and a pair of big apricot-like eyes brushed her body and revealed a thousand kinds of style, causing the men on the street to follow her horse regardless of age and shout: Falling fairy, falling fairy......

Evidently this call satisfied all the vanity of the woman in red on the horse, and she smiled back, and her eyes were more charming. No longer wielding the whip, the reins of the horse slowly drove forward with more and more praises.

Weiyang narrowed his eyes and whispered in the afterimage's ear, "Follow her!" ”

The two of them also mixed in the crowd and followed unhurriedly.

After a quarter of an hour of fuss, the procession came to a wide square, and on the east side of the square was a mansion with a high wall. A group of dozens of armored soldiers ran forward to stop many edicts, and two men with a delicate appearance and a weak crown stepped forward to help her dismount, and one accompanied her into the magnificent gate of the mansion.

Weiyang raised his eyes and looked at the courtyard of the deep mansion in front of him, but he didn't expect that the palace of Nanzhao couldn't even compare to the ordinary prince's mansion, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised in disbelief.

After eyeing the afterimage, the two of them withdrew from the still boiling Zhaoren team and went all the way to the alley in the east of the city.

In the depths of a very secluded alley, a small door hung a black plaque with three edicts written on it: Dong Xiaowan.

The two of them secretly observed for a long time, and saw that the secret mark on the lintel was still there, so they entered the door one after the other.

The interior of the shop is very small, with four tables lined up outside, and on the inside is an account counter, on which are hung several wooden signs, each with several equally large characters written on it, and a wine jar and cups and bowls and utensils are placed below. A small door opened next to it leading to the back kitchen, where an old man was napping on a stool in the ledger.

Weiyang asked in an edict, "Is there rice wine for sale?" ”

The old man seemed to be startled, and opened his eyes in a daze to look at the two. After looking at it for a while before he could speak, the afterimage met his eyes, raised his left sleeve slightly, and revealed a piece of totem, but what he said was a Chu sentence, "Wenjing!" ”

The old man jumped up from the stool almost instantly, ran past the two of them to the door and looked at it, then closed the courtyard door and turned off the lights, only a few steps came to the two of them and bent half, "Wenjing is here, see the lord!" "Where is there still a little bit of the half-dead appearance just now, the spirit is strong, the two eyes are sharp, and at a glance you know that he is a powerful character.

Weiyang was half-hidden at the side of the remnant, not raising his head or making a sound.

The afterimage glanced deeply at the old man.

The old man understood, "Your Excellency, please continue in the secluded backyard." ”

Wen Jing was in front, and the afterimage followed closely behind.

Weiyang vigilantly observed the outside through the crack in the door, and there was nothing unusual for a long time, so he followed the two into the backyard with confidence.

said that it was a backyard, but it was not even half a porch of Qingjing Winery, a square place. Passing through them, there were several wooden houses, and the three of them entered the middle one.

Wen Jing poured tea for the two of them, let them sit down before he spoke, "Why did the Lord come?" ”

The afterimage didn't go to drink the dark tea, and said, "What's so fun in the palace?" ”

"......" Wen Jing looked at the afterimage puzzled, unable to guess the meaning of his words for a while, and hesitated a little and didn't know how to pick it up.

Weiyang calmly took the coarsely burned pottery cup in front of him, looked at it carefully for a long time, and then smelled the taste of the tea, but it was not Zeng Kou, and he listened to the two of them with a somewhat idle look.

The afterimage looked at the darkening sky outside, and felt a little sad in his heart, he knew the purpose of the young master's coming here, but the power of Nanzhao and the country were all in the royal city, so it was better to be careful.

"Three people were captured in the Dongchu Forward Battalion a month ago, and they were not in the front camp, if they were in the royal city, wouldn't it be the royal palace most likely?" The afterimage is still a straight face, and although the voice is soft, there is an unquestionable affirmation.

Wen Jing's face turned pale, and after a moment of silence, he said, "If you are escorted back to the city, you can't be in the palace, but the National Teacher's Mansion is the most likely." It's just that his subordinates haven't received any news, and he's not an important person, so how can he not leak the slightest rumor? ”

Hearing this, Weiyang raised his eyes and glanced at the afterimage, which shook his head.

So Weiyang went to play with the clay cup again, as if the artifact in her hand was extremely precious, so she was reluctant to let go.

Wen Jing stood up, "Your Lord, please wait here, and your subordinates will go out to inquire about the news and come back." ”

The remnant nodded.

Wen Jing entered a side room on the east side, and came out again after a while, and when Weiyang went to look again, he saw that he had changed into a night suit, cleaned up neatly from head to toe, and went out as soon as he gave up.

He just went out on the front foot, Weiyang and the afterimage exchanged eyes, and followed him out of the door.

This old man is a native of the Qiangyi tribe and an old minister of the Longxin Pavilion in his grandmother's time. It's the first time I've seen Weiyang, and now this kind of family and country can't tolerate the slightest mistake at all times, and I have to guard against it.

Nanzhao is a remote place, and it will be very eye-catching if there are suddenly a few more strangers in the market, so the hidden piles of Youlong Xin Pavilion in this city are very limited. Previously, Jiujiu had been hidden in this city, until an action a few years ago was not lightly injured, and since then he has been more cautious, and he will never come out unless it is a major event.

Wenjing didn't know about Jiujiu's existence, and he was only responsible for regularly passing on the news to the people who came to this connection.

The three of them entered a house in the east of the city not far away, and Wen Jing was used to it at first glance, so he easily escaped the guards in the shadows and landed in a place north of the courtyard where he didn't know where it was.

Weiyang and the afterimage also fell into the courtyard wall, and suddenly a thin but very flexible force slowly surged towards the two. Weiyang vigilantly perceived the formation hidden in the shadows, "Follow me, this national teacher is a good means." ”

Stepping on the edge of the formation, with the footwork of not cracking and kneading their bodies, the two entered the inner mansion.

Wen Jing disappeared when he entered the National Teacher's Mansion, Weiyang calculated the changes in the formation, and quickly walked around the entire mansion with the afterimage, and soon saw Wen Jing looking around in this mansion like her. There were many places where there were other mechanisms, and he didn't seem to dare to approach them, so he just looked for the way he had been going.

Weiyang has been good at this since she was a child, and those very small organs can't escape her meticulousness. It's just that there are some places she can't rush to. It's easy to destroy, but it's a little hard to do without alarming.

Just when the two of them were looking for something unsuccessful and wanted to withdraw, the force in the formation fell to the side, as if a windless wave blew past them.

"Young master, someone is coming!" The afterimage whispered.

Weiyang nodded, the yard he was in was extremely small, and the grass and trees did not seem to be carefully taken care of, so the two of them found a place to support flowers and trees and bowed down.

After a while, I saw two tall men falling from the wall, black clothes and black scarves, only the sword in his hand slightly refracted the fine light, and went to the inner courtyard very quickly.

Although the man was wearing a night suit, Weiyang still recognized it, and the person who came was Qin Yan.

The eye sockets are a little hot, and his mind can't help but be in a trance, it's only been half a month, and he has lost a lot of weight.

After the two passed, the afterimage got up to do it, but saw that Weiyang was a little stunned, and couldn't help but call lightly, "Young master? ”

Weiyang lazily came back to his senses, and suddenly pulled down the figure of the afterimage and pressed it behind the flowers.

A gust of incense blew in, and a woman said angrily in front of her, "How many years have you never seen a man in your life?" It's a shame, I'm going to sue her when my mother comes back, don't think that a princess can be so presumptuous, how can he have his throne without his mother! I'm going to see what they look like now, and let's go! ”

The wind passed, and the people went away.

"Let's go!" Weiyang jumped out first, and the afterimage followed closely behind.

The mansion in the National Teacher's Mansion is very similar to that of Dongchu, if it weren't for the location in Nanzhao, Weiyang would definitely think that he had entered the house of a big family. After walking through the two halls, the woman was accompanied by a dozen people into a small and inconspicuous house.

Weiyang and the two were hidden in the shadow of the corner, condensing their breath.

"Yo, no wonder our falling fairy is going to secretly imprison you back, it turns out that the men in Dongchu are so meticulous and good-looking!" The woman's voice was harsh, and her tone was full of disdain.

She walked up to Xiang Tianqi and lifted his chin with her slender fingers.

Xiang Tianqi has been mixed among the princes and nobles of the capital since he was a child, and because of his extraordinary family background, outstanding appearance, and strong martial arts, even many women from families in Beijing are also fascinated. Even if he is in trouble now, he has added a little unruliness, and there are many rough and reckless men in the south, and he can't compare with the dignity he has carried in his bones since he was a child.

"Sister fell in love with you, but I didn't know that I was also moved by your appearance, if I promised you a lifetime of wealth, would you stay by my side? Don't wait for Nanzhao to carve up Dongchu, and then think about such a good thing, but you can't do it! The woman was very confident, and as soon as she opened her mouth, she took it for granted.

Xiang Tianqi is a young man with strong blood and blood, when has he been so despised, he can't help but grow angry in his eyes, just because the cow tendon rope that tied him is very special, he can't break free even if he tries his best, and he has been fed with some kind of medicine, and he has no strength at all.

There was a hint of a smile on the corner of Weiyang's mouth, and he hugged his arms and secretly thought: Xiang Tianqi, Xiang Tianqi, you are ready to work for me in this life, I will make you owe me a great favor, interesting and interesting.

The woman looked at Tianqi with a fierce light in her eyes, as if she was about to swallow her alive, she was so frightened that she took a step back, and only came back to her senses after a while, and said lightly: "Yao'er, feed him an obedient pill, I like to see him so unwilling to admit defeat!" ”

"Miss, if the sun falls tomorrow, the princess asks......" The other woman's voice was a little old-fashioned.

Before she finished speaking, a shrill woman's voice cut off her words, "Whose meal are you eating, but you have to help the princess again, get out!" ”

"Miss!" Lao Cheng's voice was a little flattering.

"Don't worry about it, I want to see what she can do to me after tonight?" The proud voice paused and said, "Isn't it enough to dominate Brother Xun?" I'm going to want this guy! The caustic and angry voice went out, and there was a jumbled sound inside.

"Yao'er, you take him to the hot spring to soak, and Bi'er goes back with me to change clothes!" As soon as the words fell, more than a dozen people rushed out, and they saw two people carrying Xiang Tianqi out of the courtyard.

A group of people passed through the two courtyards again, divided into two lines and chose their own paths.

Weiyang followed behind Xiang Tianqi and quietly entered a courtyard.

The two who carried the person fell down to Xiang Tianqi and then guarded the door, "I helped you untie the rope, you have a soak in this soak, don't think about escaping, there is a mechanism set up in this courtyard, people outside can't get in, and people inside naturally can't get out!" The shrill female voice threatened him.

Weiyang casually picked a few buds from the invisible flowers and buckled them in the palm of his hand, and when the two people came out with a smile, they threw the buds out, and they lit the key points without a sound.

The afterimage took two steps forward and caught the person and threw it on the ground, and the whole process was completed in the blink of an eye, very neatly.

Weiyang stepped past the two people who had fallen at the door and entered the door, and a warm and humid air came to his face. Without waiting for the maid to perceive, she threw away the bud in her hand, and just wanted to walk over, but saw a man lying disheveled on the edge of the pool, and hurriedly turned around and walked out of the inner room in two steps.

The afterimage guarding the door saw her come out alone, and couldn't help but glance inside curiously.

Seeing Weiyang approaching, he hurriedly staggered out of the door and let her out. The afterimage took a few steps into the inner room, and without waiting for Xiang Tianqi to react, he quickly clicked on his sleeping hole, and put on the clothes he had just taken off half and carried them on his shoulders.
