238: The Yin and Yang Valley is deep and deep
Jiangzhou City, which had been snowing for two days, was covered with white snow, the carriage of Weiwang's Mansion came out of the gate, and the road outside had been swept by the snowman in the early morning, and the snow was swept to both sides of the road, and the ground was wet, leaving a watermark after the wheels ran over.
The groom drove the cart, and the bearded man rode alongside him, along with several other brothers, who did not speak all the way because it was too cold.
Okra, who was sitting in the carriage, was still in high spirits when she came out, but after walking for a while, Wei Linyuan found that she had something on her mind, and couldn't help asking, "Is my sister worried about the prince's banquet today?" Brother Li has already thought about it last night, but don't be afraid of any method they use to make things difficult for you at the table, my brother will bear it all for you! β
Only then did okra realize that she had worried her brother, and she cheered up and said, "Brother don't worry, okra has its own way to deal with it!" β
"That's not good, in Jiangzhou, no one can do anything to you, if my brother wants you to bear it yourself, then my 'Gestapo' in Jiangzhou for 20 years will be in vain!"
Okra smiled warmly after hearing this, helped Wei Linyuan tidy up his wide robe and said, "Okay, if there is something that my brother will help Okra bear, Okra will be a little heel behind my brother today, how about it?" β
"Yes, yes!" Wei Linyuan smiled happily, enjoying the feeling that he could help okra take charge of himself.
Fenghuaju is located in the south of Jiangzhou City, it was originally a Beppu of Wei Linyuan's grandfather, but it was vacant for many years, and now Prince Zhao arrived in Jiangzhou, Jiangzhou Post House was a little simple, and Wei Zhongyi arranged Prince Zhao here.
This Fenghuaju is the same as its name, it is repaired with style, its inner courtyard rockery, rare plants are readily available, compared with the Weiwang Mansion in the city, it is not bad at all, these months, it is the place where all kinds of nobles gather in the city, the carriage can often be seen outside the courtyard, the days have passed, the horsemen from each family have become brothers.
However, Wei Shizi did not have many appointments to Prince Zhao, after all, he couldn't play together in private relationships, this time I heard that Wei Shizi was coming, and the other children of the family invited by Zhao Luan came early, they didn't have much interest in Wei Shizi, after all, the identity can't suppress him, and he can't beat him, even a trick will be defeated, everyone can avoid it, and today I'm curious, mainly for Wei Shizi's sworn sister, the city has already spread, Wei Shizi brought back a sister with a strange art, with a pair of red eyes, very special, What kind of women have they not seen these children of the family? Those who sing songs in the flower building, dance skills, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, in short, they are tired of seeing all kinds of beautiful little jasper, but they have never seen this woman with strange skills, they are all interested, and want to see the beauty.
Wei Shizi came not too late, but these diligent nobles came early one by one, and as soon as Wei Linyuan arrived, it became a situation where everyone was equal.
Enter the door of the house, all the way there are maids to lead, Prince Zhao will set the banquet in the viewing attic of Fenghuaju, from the wooden ladder up, the entire attic on the second floor is pounced on a layer of soft blankets, the guests are all sitting on the low table, the case is placed with all kinds of delicacies and seafood, and there are purple good maids serving alone next to each low table.
Prince Zhao sat on the top seat, dressed in a blue-blue robe today, lying lazily on his side in front of the collapse, and the white cat he loved was snuggled on his chest, enjoying the caress of his fingers.
"His Royal Highness the Prince has arrivedβ" The high-pitched voice of the registration officer outside, Wei Linyuan strode in, okra following him closely.
As soon as he came in, Prince Zhao said faintly in front of him: "His Royal Highness the Prince really asked Xiao Wang to wait, the warm wine is almost cold!" β
Wei Linyuan was not ambiguous, he said: "Linyuan came according to the hour, it's not too late for a moment, Your Highness wants me to panic, right?" β
After speaking, he saw that the two short tables next to the prince were empty, and thought that they were reserved for himself and okra, so he took okra and sat over, during which all the princes on the table stared at okra and saw that its red eyes were eye-catching, and it was the same as rumored.
As soon as Wei Linyuan sat down, he saw these people's wolf-like eyes staring at Xiao Okra, and he was angry, but it was not easy to attack.
The eldest prince on the other end spoke first!
"You have all seen it, isn't this sister of His Royal Highness the Prince very special?"
"Special, those eyes are like pearls of the night!" Someone chimed in.
"The Pearl of the Night? How do I feel brighter than the pearl of the night? β
"The night pearl is a pearl of gold, rare in the world, but this Feng girl's eyes are the only one in the world, how can the night pearl be compared with the Feng girl's eyes?" Zhao Luan raised a hand, and the maid next to him reached out to help him up, he drank wine, and looked at Wei Linyuan with a slightly drunk face: "What does the prince think?" β
Wei Linyuan didn't like these people to compare okra as crops, and replied with a calm face: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said very much, the sea water is incomparable, the mountains are incomparable, and the people who measure people by money are really extremely rude, there is so much money, and there are countless people displaced at the border, why don't you give a wide range of relief, how about it?" β
Okra pursed her lips and smiled, her brother is really good at talking, not only giving the prince face, but also unceremoniously counting the blind coaxes next to him, now those sons who wanted to liven up the atmosphere of the banquet didn't dare to speak!
This Wei Shizi has a hot temper, and he wants to beat people at every turn, they are not as beautiful as Jiangzhou Sanmei when they are born, so they dare not provoke more, so they have to bow their heads and drink.
"Speaking of extensive relief, I heard that the prince built a temple in Linjiang City to give alms, and those homeless people praised you, and the good name spread to Jiangzhou!" Zhao Luan said meaningfully.
Wei Linyuan arched his hand and said modestly: "It's just the grace of the immortals, so as to save the world, and the good name is not daring, all this is what my little sister means!" β
Zhao Luan smiled, looked at the okra and said: "Miss Feng is indeed extraordinary, Xiao Wang saw that the fire talisman used by Miss Feng yesterday is extremely interesting, and today he also specially invited a distinguished guest from afar to come, he wants to have a discussion with Miss Feng, I don't know if Miss Feng can appreciate her face, and it also opens Xiao Wang's eyes!" β
When Wei Linyuan heard this, he had just come, and it was too much to ask someone to do it without drinking the wine, so he said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, the little sister has been recuperating in the mansion for more than a month, and she has not yet healed, so it is not easy to compete with each other, and then today is His Royal Highness's banquet, wouldn't it be nice to listen to the music and drink wine, why do you need to make some comparisons, hurt these noble sons here, hurt you, I'm afraid I will be punished by my father when I go back!" β
"Linyuan, why are you disappointed?" Zhao Luan smiled and said: "I finally can invite you and Miss Feng to appreciate their faces, naturally I want to watch something else, when can't I listen to music and drink?" Xiao Wang has long been tired of hearing it! β
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very right, we are also tired of watching this, we just want to see the competition of this strange artist, it must be very exciting, right?"
Wei Linyuan glanced at the person who spoke, it was Sima Jiangyou who was burned yesterday, it seemed that yesterday was not burned enough, and at this moment there were more words, he said coldly: "Sima Jiangyou, you want to see something different, why don't you come up and compete with the master, you are the man of the Sima family, there are all the heroic martyrs of the Sima family, your cousin Sima Yanda Jiangjun is the mentor of the master, it is said that the entry is earlier than the master, I have never had the opportunity to compete with you before, and today is a coincidence, Let's also give His Royal Highness the Crown Prince a different one! β
As he spoke, Wei Linyuan stood up from the front of the case, and all the nobles at the banquet were discolored, and many of them pinched a cold sweat for Sima Jiangyou.
Wei Linyuan is not joking, yesterday he wanted to teach this guy a lesson, he thought that today he would have a better life, but he didn't expect that he would be unlucky as soon as he came, he couldn't beat Prince Zhao, and it was still incumbent on him to beat him Sima Jiangyou.
Sima Jiangyou's heart was beating at this time, and he hurriedly shirked and said: "I have been suffering from a cold illness recently, and I have not recovered, so it is not easy to compete in martial arts......"
"Then you have to move your muscles and bones, sweat a lot and drink a pot of hot wine, master, I will ensure that your cold disease will be fine immediately!" As he spoke, Wei Linyuan lifted the robe on his body and it was too wide to prevent him from beating people, and he didn't forget to bow to Prince Zhao in front of him: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, forgive me!" β
After speaking, he untied the jade belt on his waist, took off the robe outside and threw it on the cushion, those noble sons were all stunned, and someone whispered: "What kind of system is this?" When the seat is wide and untied, what kind of system does it become? β
Wei Linyuan turned a deaf ear and strode to Sima Jiangyou's case, "Come on?" β
When Sima Jiangyou saw his sturdy figure, he stepped back a little, and refused to show weakness: "I won't compete with you!" β
"How?" Wei Linyuan raised his eyebrows, "Master, I won't compete with you, I will help you cure the cold, come!" β
As he spoke, he lifted the other party up from the cushion with one hand and threw it on the middle piece of land used for performance.
"Ahh
Afraid of causing trouble, Wei Linyuan's subordinates retracted their strength, but they were a little puzzled, he grabbed the other party's collar and said in a voice that only the two of them had: "Do you still want to watch the competition?" β
"No...... Don't look at it! β
"Alright, alright!" Zhao Luan said loudly, and with this voice, Wei Linyuan raised his head, his face full of unruliness and arrogance.
"His Royal Highness the Prince knows that Sima Jiangyou is not your opponent, but he wants to pull him out to compete, even if he wins, he will not win!" Guan Fengyun fought for Sima Jiangyou.
Wei Linyuan didn't feel that someone had taken the handle, and said shamelessly: "Master, where am I going to defeat him?" Master, I obviously want to beat him up, what's the matter? Are you Guan Dagongzi upset him? Then you can't come up and help him! β
As soon as this sentence came out, those noble sons who had gossip didn't dare to answer, and they were beaten when they answered, and no one owes this beating!
Sima Jiangyou was helped down by the prince's people to check the injury, and when he left, the handsome face was so handsome that his nose was blue and swollen, I believe that soon after, Wei Shizi will have another notoriety in the market, but for him, he has long been accustomed to it!
In this process, okra has been secretly observing Zhao Luan above, she found that this son is very calm, her brother Wei has beaten people at his banquet, and it is his sycophant who beats the dog, as the saying goes, it depends on the owner to beat the dog, the prince acted like this, His Royal Highness the prince was not angry, and the whole city sat there like a play, with a light smile.
Yes, with a shallow smile, Okra found that this Prince Zhao liked this toothless smile very much, and he was smiling on the surface, but when he looked at it, he was full of insidious calculations.
He was not angry, he must have expected this, so she guessed that today's drama has not started yet!
Sure enough, not long after, Prince Zhao joked: "Hey, His Royal Highness the Prince is very protective of his sister, and he can see that Xiao Wang is so envious, if Xiao Wang also has such a sister, he must be so cared for!" β
Wei Linyuan returned to his case, a maid came up to help him get dressed, Prince Zhao suddenly said: "Fang Cai's flip is not a competition at all, the competition should be equal, there are back and forth, Xiao Wang is not very happy, if His Royal Highness the Prince is not tired, can you enjoy the face and Xiao Wang, a friend who came from afar, to have a competition?" β
Okra's complexion changed, this Zhao Luan was really insidious, he was not like her brother Wei, his anger was on his face, he smiled, and with someone else's knife, he found the weakest point of the other party and poked it fiercely.
Everyone knows that Wei Shizi is aggressive and rarely loses, and his prince specified that he would come to fight, how could Wei Linyuan not obey?
And the friend in Prince Zhao's mouth who came from afar must not be an ordinary person, he must have the same magic as okra, Wei Linyuan is just an ordinary man, how to compete with these deviations?
Okra just wanted to speak, but the voice of the eldest prince came out one step ahead of her!
"His Royal Highness the Prince of the World is brave and invincible, and he can defeat a hundred with one enemy, and today we can open our eyes!"
Wei Linyuan is not stupid, he naturally knows that Prince Zhao dug a pit for him, but he just beat Sima Jiangyou in public at the banquet, and it is not his style to shirk at this time, so he immediately agreed: "Compare and compare, I don't know what kind of sacredness His Royal Highness the Prince, a friend from afar, is so important to His Royal Highness the Prince?" β
Zhao Luan smiled slightly, raised his hands and clapped his hands in mid-air, and from behind the screen on his side came a man wearing a black samurai uniform and covering half of his face with a black cloth, he was carrying a double sword on his back, and two bells were hanging on the hilt of the sword.
Wei Linyuan looked at this person's behavior, and knew that this person was a master, he was indeed good at fighting, and he also liked to fight with masters, seeing that this person was a little excited, and asked: "Who is coming, if you want to fight, why don't you report yourself to be famous!" β
The man bowed to him and said, "Yin Yang Gu Fengyue Shen asks His Royal Highness the Prince to teach you!" β
Okra frowned slightly, as he expected, this person is a person from the Xuanmen, and the Yin-Yang Valley is the most powerful one in the Xuanmen sect today, the Yin-Yang Technique they practiced is supernatural in the actual combat method, comparable to the divine soldier in the world, even she is not necessarily the opponent of this person, so isn't her brother Wei more auspicious?
The subtle changes in her expression all entered the eyes of Zhao Luan above, and he said leisurely: "Shizi, there is a saying, before you compete, Xiao Wang needs to make it clear that this Mr. Feng is not an ordinary person, and those who fight with him will die for life, although you have practiced martial arts since childhood, you are not his opponent, and the purpose of his coming here today is to fight with your little sister Feng Okra, why don't you let your little sister come out to fight?" β
When Wei Linyuan came, he promised Okra that all the difficulties at the banquet today would be borne by his brother, knowing that the opponent was not simple, how could he let Okra come out and be in danger? And he has always been not afraid of anything, what is it to retreat at this time, when he opened his mouth and said: "If you don't fight, how does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince know that Linyuan will be defeated?" β
Prince Zhao figured out his temperament, he must know that he would be like this, and he didn't panic, so he smiled comfortably and said: "Then Xiao Wang won't force the world, let's start!" β
Feng Yueshen took off the double swords on his back and held them in his hands, "His Royal Highness, I am offended!" β
Wei Linyuan stretched out his hand to take the sword that the bearded man threw at him, lost the scabbard after drawing the sword, and rushed up to fight with Feng Yueshen, the two of them were very superb in swordsmanship, and the sword qi turned round after round and lifted the dishes on the table around them, and those noble sons stood up and retreated in shock, only Prince Zhao sat firmly in front, and the bowls and wine jugs beside him did not move at all, as if there was a force guarding him.
Okra glanced at it, remembering that Brother Wei had told her the day before yesterday that when Zhao Luan fled from Tiandu, everyone in his companions was embarrassed and depressed, only he did not carry a wisp of dust, which was very strange, she thought it was just a rumor exaggerated, but now when she saw this scene, she suddenly understood why.
There is something different about this prince who keeps him away from harm, just like the prince who recited scriptures to her and built a wall.
But Zhao Jubo is a cultivator who has practiced ascetic Buddhism for 300 years, and he Zhao Luan is just an ordinary man, how can there be such a miracle on his body?
Over there, Wei Linyuan and Feng Yueshen fought fiercely, which was wonderful, and those noble sons opened their mouths wide and forgot to applaud, but Okra knew that Feng Yueshen had been preserving his strength, and her brother Wei had used all his strength to fight like this for several rounds, Wei Linyuan was already sweating profusely, but Feng Yueshen was still the same, and the more he played, the more swift he became, and the double swords in his hands were agile and ingenious, even if he was not a person in the Xuanmen, he could rank among the top three today only by relying on this swordsmanship.
Although Wei Linyuan is a little difficult, but he has a deep experience in the competition, he has already noticed that this manpower is not exhausted, and wants to exhaust his remaining strength, so he pretends to be tired, and the defense is weak to let the other party take it lightly, he is looking at the opportunity, and attacks the weakness of his lower arm with lightning speed, Fengyue is deeply shocked, and at the time of the crisis, a strong force suddenly shook out from his body, and he came straight towards Wei Linyuan.
Almost at the same time, Okra flew up in front of Wei Linyuan, and with a wave of his sleeve, he dissipated the power, and everyone was shocked.
"The two of them competed, what did you do when you went up to make trouble? Do you understand the rules of martial arts? Grand Prince Qi asked.
"That's it, the competition is undecided, how can you continue to compete?" There were also people next to him who coaxed.
Okra glanced at Zhao Luan in front of him, and saw that he was sitting on it in high spirits, thinking that he had already calculated this scene, and she didn't pretend to be a follower around Brother Wei, and said coldly: "Prince Zhao also said just now, the competition should be a fair match, and this Mr. Feng and my Brother Wei were going to lose in the swordsmanship competition but used other tricks, which is considered a foul, and I naturally can't stand by and watch!" β
Feng Yueshen quibbled: "This girl's words are inappropriate, right?" A competition is a competition, what other swordsmanship and other tricks are there? If you are afraid that your brother will make any mistakes, you should persuade him not to fight with Feng before the competition! β
Wei Linyuan is such an arrogant person, he was so angry when he heard this, and said loudly: "Then let's try again!" β
Okra raised her hand to block him, preventing him from moving forward.
"Okra, we said okay!" Wei Linyuan was very anxious, just to fight for her.
Okra knows very well that this is not the time to be strong and aggressive, this Feng Yueshen just made a yin move, so he didn't plan to show mercy to his subordinates, and if she fights again, her brother will not die or be crippled, and she won't let him fight again!
Then Prince Zhao designed this today, didn't he just want to force her to make a move? At this time, I don't plan to hide, just fight, my okra is not the weak woman I used to be!
She said to Prince Zhao in front of her: "My brother Wei is not a person outside the party, the competition is not a problem, but if this competition uses the art of the outside, it is not a simple competition, Mr. Feng should understand, there are rules of fighting in the Xuanmen, and there are rules for fighting with outsiders, and it is also the spirit of the Taoist, of course, this competition was not stated in advance, and it is not to blame that Mr. Feng was defeated halfway to turn the situation into a fight, but my brother Wei is just a general, I don't understand your side door fighting, you want to fight, how about my phoenix okra fight with you? β
Feng Yue covered half of his face, he looked like he was in his thirties, he had heard the name of Feng Okra since he came here, and he also knew where she came from, so he was not surprised to hear the name, smiled slightly, and did not forget to mock: "This is very good, Feng someone also thinks that it is very boring to only dance with knives and guns!" β
"Papapa-" Prince Zhao, who was sitting above, stood up and clapped his palms excitedly, and said leisurely: "It's still the prince of the world who has a big face, and Miss Feng loves her brother so much, it really frustrates the lonely widows who are watching the excitement on our side!" β
Feng Yueshen said again: "Although this attic is big, but Yu Feng really can't show it, it's better to go to a wide place outside, and I will have a good fight with Miss Feng!" β
Okra's face has not changed, but her heart is very clear about what kind of calculation this fight, as we all know, her Feng family's yin technique is mainly to raise ghosts, she does not see the sun outside in this attic, and it is easy to recruit ghosts and spirits to help fight, but when she goes outside, at this time, how can she use it at will?
But if she shirked it, this guy would definitely have a back-up, and she didn't want to show her cowardice in front of these people, so she immediately agreed: "I also think it's small here, it's not as wide as the sky outside, pleaseββ"
As she spoke, she took the lead in stepping out, and when those noble sons saw this, they also got up one after another, and followed Prince Zhao to the front of the building, and there was an open space outside the building, and the turf planted in autumn was all dry in winter, and it was full of snow at this time.
When the okra arrived on the snow, Wei Linyuan followed closely and said with a worried expression: "It's not dark yet, why do you want to promise the person surnamed Feng to fight outside?" Extremely bad for you! β
Okra said calmly: "It's okay, I don't have to rely on ghosts to fight!" β
As she spoke, she took off her cloak and handed it to the bearded man next to her, and began to prepare for the fight.
Feng Yueshen also stood in the opposite position, and just waited for Prince Zhao's order to be issued, and the fighting between the two of them began.
But this Prince Zhao also went downstairs and stood in the snow, not knowing what he was waiting for, he just didn't give the order, and Wei Linyuan was restless in his heart.
Soon, someone on the other side of the snow came again!
