Gusu City is really a good place, with picturesque scenery and water charm in the south of the Yangtze River.

Yuan Zheng has not been here yet, this time he came, it was also most of the night, outside the city gate, Yuan Zheng brocade clothes and jade belt, sword around his waist, and a Hai Dongqing lying on his shoulder, after a long time, another prince with brocade clothes and jade belt came out to greet him.

"Visiting at night is also a heart. "Yuan Qingdao.

Yuan Zheng smiled: "It's like being a thief." ”

The two brothers walked together and entered Gusu City, in the mansion, there were no bright lights, and the lights were colorful, and it seemed that it was not appropriate for the prince of Wuwang to receive the concubine of Wuwang.

However, in the hall, a banquet has been prepared, and there are only Yuan Zheng and Yuan Qing tonight, and Yan Xiayu did not accompany Dongfang Mingyue, but practiced silently in his boudoir.

The dishes on the table are all patched together from Hanzhou's local snacks.

In normal times, Yuan Zheng would definitely be very moved, but tonight, Yuan Zheng really couldn't be moved.

After a few drinks, Yuan Zhengcai asked, "What is her reaction?"

Yuan Qing said: "This question, you stopped me, since I came here, Her Royal Highness Princess Da Zhou has not had any reaction." ”

Yuan Zheng drank another glass of wine, Yuan Zheng on weekdays does not drink, but tonight, he can only drink some wine to strengthen his courage.

"It's hard work, big brother. Yuan Zheng said.

Yuan Qing responded: "It's not hard, it's just business, this is my father's instructions, it's not that I am arguing, I didn't expect that this matter is so magical, so sudden, even my father was shocked." ”

"Your kid's blessing is not shallow, before the year of the crown, someone will worry about your future marriage, and the object of your worries is still Her Royal Highness the princess of Da Zhou, is happiness a little sudden?"

Seeing that Yuan Zheng looked loveless, Yuan Qing made fun of this.

Yuan Zheng asked another question: "What is the situation of the Xu clan now? Have you ever made trouble for the eldest brother?"

Yuan Qing said: "People who don't know, think that Dongfang Mingyue is a distant relative of our Yuan family, therefore, no one comes here to trouble me, the Xu family has already known in their hearts that Dongfang Mingyue killed Xu Wu, there is a kendo master, and the traces of the discovery field can be seen, because there are footprints of a white jade unicorn." ”

"Because we are the Yuan family, no one bothered us. ”

"The Xu clan is full of grievances, but under the current policy of emphasizing military force over literature, the Xu clan does not dare to be too presumptuous. ”

"The two, the Xie clan in Jiangnan, originally had the idea of suppressing the Xu clan, but this time, Xie Hua also did a lot of things in secret, completely suppressing the arrogance of the Xu clan. ”

"The Xu family feels that there is no fairness and justice in this world, and there is the suppression of the Yuan family, the suppression of the Xie family, and the suppression of policies, so they almost rebelled. But they can't rebel. ”

Yuan Zheng snorted.

Yuan Qing said: "Except for the insider's accident, no one knows about the relationship between you and Dongfang Mingyue. ”

Yuan Zhengdao: "I don't even know what the relationship between me and Dongfang Mingyue is now. ”

Yuan Qing almost laughed.

Interesting things always happen to the third brother.

After being full of wine and food, Yuan Zheng's face was a little red, and his courage was a little bigger.

It's just an ordinary vulgar powder, Yuan Zheng can be easily crushed, but the Dongfang Mingyue is not only not a vulgar powder, but also a bright moon in the sky.

Yuan Qing accompanied Yuan Zheng to the outside of the lake, in the small building in the middle of the lake, the bright moon in the east stood with his hands in his hands, staring at the night dome, its demeanor was indescribable.

"That's it, the next thing, the eldest brother can't help you, it's best to take your Princess Mingyue away quickly, I'm here, don't stay for a long time." Yuan Qing fanned the flames.

Yuan Zheng smiled sadly and did not reply.

His face was slightly red, and he didn't plan to use the true yuan to kill the alcohol in his body.

Then, riding the wind, he went to the small building in the middle of the lake, in mid-air, Yuan Zheng thought about it, and after drinking wine, he saw the girl, which was not so polite, so he used Zhenyuan to kill his wine.

Impartially descended in front of the bright moon in the east.

The two met, as calm as a rippling lake.

Yuan Zheng said softly: "Long time no see." ”

Dongfang Mingyue looked at Yuan Zheng, his figure was much stronger, and his martial arts cultivation had also reached the Yuan realm.

The sword at his waist is extraordinary, and he doesn't care how Yuan Zheng walked out of the Jade Void Mountain Range, because that was a thing of the past.

Dongfang Mingyue said: "Long time no see." ”

The two of them didn't plan to sit in the small building, or have a cup of tea.

It's just like this, and it's a little violent.

Yuan Zheng sorted out his thoughts and said, "This time I came, you should also know what it was for." ”

"Actually, I didn't know that I would have a fateful entanglement with you, between you and me, we are not the same kind of person at all, such a fate makes me honestly afraid, you are not the kind of person who will do things against his heart for a man. ”

"But since there is such a thing, you and I are the protagonists, of course we have to solve this matter. ”

Dongfang Mingyue said, "What solution do you want?"

For a while, Yuan Zheng was speechless, and he really didn't know how to reply.

Dongfang Mingyue looked at Yuan Zheng's handsome face, which was also in line with the skin that Ruyi Langjun should have, and stared deeply, just looking at a prey that he didn't care about.

He said: "Your luck is very prosperous, stronger than the last time I saw you, in the past few years, you have developed well, I am far away in Dazhou, I can hear your news." ”

Yuan Zhengdao: "Unfortunately, I have never heard from you until this time. ”

Dongfang Mingyue said: "It seems that there is nothing to say." ”

Yuan Zhengdao: "I think so, too. ”

After a long silence, a carp jumped out of the water in the lake, breaking the calm.

Yuan Zhengdao: "The carp in the lake will never be able to cross the dragon gate. ”

Dongfang Mingyue didn't reply, just stood quietly, still maintaining a posture of standing with her hands in her hands.

Yuan Zhengdao: "Let's be simple, how do you feel about me, if you think it's not bad, come with me, if you think, I can't enter your eyes, now I will take you out of my eldest brother's Gusu City and escort you to where you want to go." ”

"Okay?"

Dongfang Mingyue slowly responded: "I don't have any feelings for you, just like you feel for me." ”

A man and a woman, if the skin of two people is equally divided, the possibility of counting on hue to close the distance will be much, much lower.

Yuan Zhengdao: "If I have feelings for you, just because of your beautiful appearance, then what?"

Dongfang Mingyue said: "You are not such a vulgar person, as far as I know, there has never been a shortage of beauties around you." ”

Yuan Zhengdao: "How is this good, between you and me, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like someone who can tie the knot, and you are not a little woman, make an assumption, you and I get along for a while, and then see if it is suitable to be together, okay?"

Dongfang Mingyue responded: "I originally thought the same way. ”

This answer was also something that Yuan Zheng did not expect.

Yuan Zheng smiled and said, "I really don't know whether to be happy or worried." ”

Dongfang Mingyue said: "Just be yourself." ”

Yuan Zheng sighed, and there was no follow-up.

Then, as if they had a heart, the two left the small building in the middle of the lake, and outside, Yuan Qing was waiting.

"If you leave tonight, the defense in Gusu City will be useless. ”

Dongfang Mingyue was walking in front, the white jade unicorn was following behind, and Yuan Zheng said to the eldest brother: "Thank you, there will be a good reward in the future." ”

Yuan Qing also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, this time, he was finally able to give his father an errand.

Yuan Zheng and Dongfang Mingyue walked together, and the white jade unicorn turned into a white dove and lay on Dongfang Mingyue's shoulder.

"Let's go to Qingshan County first, and when we get to a place where no one is around, you and I will ride our respective mounts. Yuan Zheng said.

Dongfang Mingyue was curious: "Do you do anything sneaky?"

Yuan Zhengdao: "That's not it, there are many people nowadays who are chasing my whereabouts, I already belong to the category of people who have evaporated from the world, and it is not suitable to show my head right now." ”

Dongfang Mingyue said: "You care a lot about your ambition and hegemony?"

Yuan Zhengdao: "I say I care, I don't care so much, but the road has come to this point, many things, can no longer be by me, the two, a man, naturally have their own ambition to dominate, and their own beliefs, so that they can stand in this vast world with a better attitude." ”

Dongfang Mingyue said: "What kind of person do you want to become?"

Yuan Zheng responded casually: "Light the fire of peace in the world, end this troubled era, and open a new era, not seeking glory and wealth, but only seeking a clear conscience." ”

Dongfang Mingyue showed a strange look at Yuan Zheng for the first time, and her casual words were often the truth.

Not long after, the two left Gusu City, and outside the city, rode the white jade unicorn and thousands of miles of smoke and clouds to Qingshan County.

On the way, Yuan Zheng briefly said what he had done in Jiangnan, because he knew that Dongfang Mingyue would not do anything to betray him.

"With four Heaven Realm masters under your command, and one Heaven Realm master as a friend, such a starting point is already very high. ”

"In your heart, can you calm down?"

Yuan Zheng replied: "Yes, a person, as long as he slowly does what he is doing, or does what he likes to do, he can always calm down." ”

Dongfang Mingyue asked, "Then what kind of person did you want to be?"

Yuan Zhengdao: "When I was a gentleman, I hoped that one day, I would become a master of the heavenly realm, go around chivalrous and righteous, stir up flowers and grass everywhere, and be merry everywhere, and then play enough, and then marry a plain cardinal's wife and live a stable life." ”

"As for the future children, what they want to do when they grow up, I will not interfere and let it be. ”

"No matter how you live, it's a lifetime. ”

There are two top mounts, and it didn't take long for them to arrive in Qingshan County, in the suburban mountain villa, the lights were bright, as the base camp of the Changbang, it was heavily defended here, and it was very lively.

In the center of the villa, Zhong Nan walked out of his study, alone, looking at the night dome, and soon Yuan Zheng and Dongfang Mingyue came here.

Zhong Nan was a little surprised, first glanced at Yuan Zheng, and then at Dongfang Mingyue.

Then he said a little confused: "This time, you came secretly, and you are destined to leave secretly, right?"

Yuan Zhengdao: "Almost, before dawn, I will return to the cloud city, and when I come here, I naturally want to visit you, how is the situation recently?"

Zhong Nan knew that the woman in front of him was the woman who killed Xu Wu, and she was destined to be in trouble if she stayed here.

Since Yuan Qing settled Dongfang Mingyue in Gusu City, Zhong Nan vaguely speculated that this matter might have something to do with Yuan Zheng, but it had little to do with Xu Wu's death.

I can't figure out what the reason for these is, let alone Zhong Nan, even Yuan Zheng himself can't tell what all this is for.

As a beautiful woman, Dongfang Mingyue has naturally gone to the extreme of the world, and in terms of appearance alone, it is enough to marry into the emperor's family, and in itself, Dongfang Mingyue is from the emperor's family.

The three of them entered the lobby, and Zhong Nan made a pot of tea.

Zhong Nan said: "The Black Dragon King has already accepted Yanbei as an apprentice, not a closed disciple, nor a descendant disciple, nor a registered disciple, anyway, he has accepted an apprentice, maybe it is more pleasing to the eye to see Yanbei, and he intends to train Yanbei to be a fierce general in the water, and he also intends to teach Yanbei more martial arts cultivation methods." ”

"In short, we have a good general in the future. ”

Yuan Zheng was quite surprised, Yanbei can still take this kind of shit luck?

Dongfang Mingyue didn't interject, and it was quite novel to see Yuan Zheng and Zhong Nan talking about political affairs for the first time.

Yuan Zheng said: "The elite of the sailors, it will appear in the near future, the battle of the old Western Shu, after the autumn, will break out, my Liang Wu has gone to the old Western Shu, as a Shu person, I don't know if the doctor and Wang Wei, the heart is also ready to move?"

Zhong Nan nodded and said: "It's not enough to be ready to move, but the doctor and Wang Wei have already gone to the old Xishu, just two people, without any entourage, and the affairs in Dikunshan will be explained to Wu Changfeng and Tailan for the time being." ”

"By the way, Guo Xijun's predecessors have already been contacted, and now in Great Xia, he has joined forces with a female leader of the tribe to attack the city and pull out the village, and he vaguely has the momentum of a prince, but he is also a small prince. ”

Yuan Zhengdao: "That's good, I'm really worried that the predecessors of the Xijun will completely lose contact and evaporate from the world." ”

"The situation is stable, with occasional small waves, right?"

Zhong Nan said: "That's pretty much the case, right now we are just strong soldiers, and we are still far away from the day of going to the battlefield, but we are on the opposite side with Xie Hua, Xie Hua wants the dragon spirit of the Black Dragon King, and he has already sent someone to test it, and that person is dead." ”

"It's okay for the time being, but I don't know where Xie Hua can go in the future. ”

Yuan Zhengdao: "He shouldn't go too far." ”

Zhong Nan said: "I hope." ”
