However, half a day later, the two had already arrived at a tea stall, and Zhuo Yucheng suddenly stopped his horse, dismounted, and walked leisurely towards a woman next to the tea stall. Seeing this, Xin Yao also got off the horse and followed Zhuo Yucheng.

The woman was dressed in white, her skin was like condensed fat, her lips were like Zhu Dan, and her expression was cold. A long sword was carried with him, the body of the sword was transparent and snow-white, and it bloomed with a cold light.

It's really an unapproachable woman, Xin Yao muttered in her heart, quietly slowed down, and followed behind Zhuo Yucheng.

"Yucheng has seen Senior Sister. I saw Zhuo Yucheng greeting his senior sister with a smile on his face, arching his hands and saluting slightly.

"Hmm. The woman replied lightly, her eyes did not stop at Zhuo Yucheng, but glanced at Xin Yao behind Zhuo Yucheng when he bowed.

After the salute, Zhuo Yucheng consciously straightened up, noticing the eyes of the senior sister, Zhuo Yucheng moved to the side, got out of the way, and let the senior sister take a closer look. He introduced himself on the side: "Xin Yao, this is my senior sister Bai Yixue, senior sister, this is Xin Yao, the maid of the Divine Weapon Pavilion." ”

"Fortunately. As if she felt that Xin Yao was just an ordinary woman, and there was nothing abnormal, Bai Yixue only glanced at it, and then turned her gaze to her junior brother's face.

"Senior sister, let's get on the horse first, now is not the time to delay. Bai Yixue nodded in agreement, turned over and got on the horse neatly, Zhuo Yucheng and the two did the same, and the three fast horses went hand in hand and set off again.

"Senior sister, I haven't seen you for a long time, are you okay?" While galloping, there was only the sound of the wind whistling in his ears, Zhuo Yucheng looked at both sides, he didn't say a word, he was very bored, and spontaneously accosted Bai Yixue. It's been a few years since the last time we parted, and thinking about the situation at that time, it's a blessing that we didn't greet each other this time.

Bai Yixue glanced at him and replied lightly: "Hmm." OK. Then he moved his gaze to the avenue in front of him.

"I'm tired of my sister this time. Ignoring Bai Yixue's indifferent response, Zhuo Yucheng still smiled unchanged, and said that Bai Yixue would definitely reply to that sentence, but it was only a conversion between "um", "good" and "okay".

"Young Master. Taking advantage of Zhuo Yucheng's conversation, Xin Yao on the side couldn't help but call him.

"Hmm, what's the matter?" Zhuo Yucheng turned to Xin Yao.

“... Young master, do you owe your senior sister money", the sympathy in the little girl's eyes was undisguised, "Along the way, the white girl didn't reply to you with more than three words......

Zhuo Yucheng was stunned for a moment, and then explained with a smile: "Senior sister has an indifferent personality and doesn't like to talk much, so she is used to it." ”

Don't you do anything to be sorry for others, Xin Yao slandered, but considering Zhuo Yucheng's face, he still obediently replied, "Oh." ”

It was another day, and the group had arrived at the boundary of the capital, but Zhuo Yucheng did not transfer to the Divine Weapon Pavilion, but went straight to the capital, Xin Yao and Bai Yixue were suspicious in their hearts, but the movements in their hands did not stagnate, and they still followed Zhuo Yucheng forward.

As if aware of the doubts of the two, Zhuo Yucheng glanced back and reassured: "Don't worry, it's not wrong, Xinyao continues, this bag is collected, and at the critical time, it will be ......done one by one according to the instructions in the bag" Between words, Zhuo Yucheng took out a bag from his arms and threw it in the direction of Xinyao.

Xin Yao took the bag from the air with one hand and quickly took it into her arms. "Young master, rest assured, Xin Yao will not let you down. The crisp voice came into Zhuo Yucheng's ears, which made people feel good.

After a few miles, I saw more than a dozen people lined up outside the post station in front of me, and the first few people were dressed as literati, and the color of the clothes was extremely exquisite, and the scene was solemn and grand. They are Meng Qiushuang, the first master of the seven clans, and Fu Ziwen, the fourth leader. As soon as the two saw Zhuo Yucheng, they immediately greeted them.

"Welcome Shenwu Shaojun!" Bi respectfully bowed and saluted, and the two straightened their backs, stood in front of the horse without leaving an inch, and looked at Zhuo Yucheng together.

The two old foxes are not afraid of horseshoe and long eyes, Zhuo Yucheng thought to himself, it's just that, since the clan is in charge of the family, and he is a junior, there is still a number of etiquette. Then he turned over and dismounted, and made a series of actions in one go.

"Youlao and the two adults have been waiting for a long time, but they don't know where Brother Mu is at the moment?" Everyone didn't expect Zhuo Yucheng to be so straight to the point, and he couldn't answer for a while.

"It's... , This prince is now in charge of the affairs of the capital, and it is inconvenient to come, so he specially ordered me to come to greet the young monarch. The eldest prince has prepared a banquet for the young monarch in the mansion, so as to catch the wind and wash the dust for the young monarch. I implore you to move. "Meng Qiushuang is an old man after all, and his rhetoric is reasonable, which makes people unable to catch any loopholes.

"Brother Mu is gracious, Yucheng should go to pay a visit, but now it is getting late, and my mother has been waiting for a long time, if she is worried about the old man, Yucheng is really unfilial, and when Yucheng returns to the house to settle everything properly, tomorrow will be the house to disturb. "After that, the momentum is about to get on the horse.

Who knew that Meng Qiushuang stretched out her hand quickly, grabbed the reins, accompanied by a smile, and said: "Shaojun, you see, not only the eldest prince misses Shaojun, but we also want to see Shaojun's peerless demeanor, if you miss your family, we will immediately send someone to pick up the old lady to gather together in the eldest prince's mansion." ”

Zhuo Yucheng thought for a moment, and said with a smile: "My mother has always disliked noise, so don't disturb her old man, but Master Meng, how can you be embarrassed to lead the horse for me." He withdrew his hand and hung it at his side, his gaze moving from the hand holding the reins to Meng Qiushuang's face.

"This ...... Shaojungui is the brother of the eldest prince with a different surname, and the old man should lead the horse for the young prince. Meng Qiushuang reacted at this time, she was in a hurry, and her hand was holding the reins for a long time, no matter what, this Zhuo Yucheng was the entire faction of Xuanqing Palace behind him, and it was nothing if he was wronged at this time......

"Zhuo Shaojun, my father is old, and I should take care of the reins in this generation. The man who spoke had a handsome face and a good demeanor, and he had heard that the Meng family had an only son named Meng Donglin, and he thought that this person was coming. This son Zhuo Yucheng had never seen it before, but he heard that he was an extremely prominent talent among the children of the family.

"Hehe, Shaojun forgive me, this is the dog Donglin, he has been helping to take care of affairs in his hometown in his early years, and he has not had the opportunity to get acquainted with Shaojun, and he has always admired Shaojun's demeanor, and he is full of praise for Shaojun's deeds. Meng Qiushuang took advantage of the situation to let go of her hand, moved her steps back a little, patted her son's shoulder, and said to Zhuo Yucheng with a smile.

Zhuo Yucheng weighed a little in his heart, and said with a smile: "Yucheng is just a mountain path, where did the deeds come from, Brother Meng is so famous, which makes Yucheng ashamed." ”

"Haha, Shaojun is really too modest this time. How old is the young man in the east, if you don't dislike it, you and I will be brothers in the future, I don't know if the virtuous brother has plans to return to Beijing to live for a long time, and the foolish brother is still looking forward to hearing more about the legend of the virtuous brother. Meng Donglin's smiling eyes were deep, revealing a bit of exploration.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say" Seeing that this son was quite shrewd to relieve Meng Qiushuang, Zhuo Yucheng thought that he didn't know him well, so he just took this opportunity to do some understanding, so he chatted with him all the way and walked towards the prince's mansion.

It took only a moment from the city gate to the Great Prince's Mansion, on the way, Meng Qiushuang kept telling Zhuo Yucheng about the great achievements of the Great Prince in recent years, and said how the Seven Clans were loyal and patriotic, and Fu Ziwen only echoed and agreed with two sentences, Bai Yixue didn't say a word, silently walked beside Zhuo Yucheng, and Xinyao, as a maid, could only walk at the end.

In front of the prince's mansion, there were already people waiting, and as soon as people arrived, they introduced people into the mansion one after another, and they did not dare to slack off.

Walk to the house, enter the scenery, it is already extremely luxurious, everywhere reveals the luxury of the master, the delicate carved stone pillars on both sides of the corridor, the dragon and phoenix dance; The waiters in the house lined up in two rows along the road to greet them. When they arrived at the main hall, the eldest prince and a woman slowly greeted them side by side.

This eldest prince is the eldest son of the current emperor, Mu Tiantuo, both civil and military, and has been friends with the family since childhood.

And this woman is Zhuo Yucheng's cousin Shen Junya, but her cousin was born in a branch, and Zhuo Yucheng went to Xuanqing Palace to cultivate when he was a child, so there are only a few faces.

"Brother Xian hasn't seen him for many years, and he is becoming more and more handsome and chic, come, take a seat, let Brother Wei and your cousin take a good look!" Mu Tiantuo raised his hand and motioned for the group to follow him into the hall and sit down.

"Seeing that the eldest brother and cousin are so affectionate, I really envy the younger brother" Seeing this situation, Zhuo Yucheng was not restrained, and entered the main hall with Mu Tiantuo.

"You haven't been back for a long time, but your cousin often whispers in my ear, I must tell you a good talk about good family affairs. Mu Tiantuo said as he motioned for Zhuo Yucheng and Bai Yixue to sit beside him.

"Thank you cousin for your concern, I wonder if my cousin has ever cast a new work in recent years?" Adjusting his sitting posture slightly, Zhuo Yucheng leaned over slightly in the direction of his cousin, and then lifted up. Instead of leaving the topic to others, it is better to take the initiative yourself and strike first.

"Haha. It's really as Yucheng said, your cousin, the work in your hands has never stopped, other ladies are threading needles and threads, talking and laughing and fluttering butterflies, my lady is different, melting gold and cast iron every day. For this reason, I specially built a god casting platform for her. After you and I have a good time, let your cousin take you to see the magic weapon she made herself. Without waiting for Shen Junya to answer, Mu Tiantuo took over the conversation. After saying this, Shen Junya's face flushed slightly, as if she was a little embarrassed. Seeing this, His Highness and everyone just smiled and said nothing.

A trace of tenderness flashed in Mu Tiantuo's eyes, his mood suddenly became happy, and with a wave of his big hand, a group of servants shuttled between the guests, and after a while, jade plates and delicacies were placed on the table. Take a closer look, the dishes on each table are similar, only the wine is Zhuo Yucheng's favorite winter jade spring, and Bai Yixue put a pot of tea in front of him.

Thinking that he and his senior sister should have been carefully investigated, Zhuo Yucheng concluded in his heart that it was still a banquet with no peace of mind after all.

"Come, brother, your favorite Dong Yuquan. Everyone, let's raise a glass and wash the dust for Zhuo Shaojun!"

After everyone finished drinking, Zhuo Yucheng slowly picked up the wine glass and sniffed lightly: "Buried under the fragrant bamboo, after three years of winter and snow quenching, the bamboo fragrance is overflowing, it is very cold, it is really a good wine! After speaking, he drank all the wine in the cup, turned around and walked towards the door with the white snow.

"Zhuo ......" Mu Tiantuo was about to stop it, but suddenly felt that the light in front of him was dazzling, his heartbeat was abnormal, and he immediately wanted to use his strength, but he couldn't move.

Zhuo Yu stood up and looked at everyone present, but they couldn't see, couldn't control their strength, and couldn't do it. Only the last woman in green clothes, playing with the delicate wine glass in her hand with one hand, supporting her chin with the other, looked at herself sideways, and her eyes were a little cunning.

Such a smart woman is really curious, so she paced over, and Zhuo Yucheng saluted: "Under Zhuo Yucheng, haven't you asked the girl's name yet?"

"The little girl's surname is Fu, her name is Qingqing, and she has seen her son. The woman's smile did not change, she put down the wine glass in her hand, still supporting her chin, and her eyes were slightly raised, so she responded.

"It turned out to be a world-famous poetry concubine, fortunately. If you have the opportunity, you should come to your door and ask for advice. "The Fu family is a scholarly family, the head of Taixue, the daughter of the Fu family has been reading poetry since childhood, and can write chapters at the age of hanging hair. originally thought that he was just a well-informed lady, but he didn't think that even his courage and insight were so good, which really made him interested.

"If the son comes, the little girl will sweep the couch to greet her" The corners of her mouth raised lightly, and the excitement that she couldn't hide overflowed Fu Qingqing's eyes.

"It's a deal. ”

......

Stepping out of the prince's mansion in a grand manner, as soon as he stepped out of the door with his front foot, Zhuo Yucheng's throat moved, he opened his mouth and coughed lightly, but he spit out a clear purple bead.

"Have you practiced the Amethyst Technique?" glanced at the beads lying quietly in Zhuo Yucheng's palm, Bai Yixue looked sideways at this familiar and unfamiliar junior disciple and asked.

"The meridians are damaged, and now I can only practice this......" Zhuo Yucheng sighed, and as soon as he threw it away, the beads mixed with the smell of wine turned into a puff of smoke and dispersed.

"So you also learned to use poison?" Bai Yixue looked displeased, how could a decent person make such a despicable trick.

"It's not poisonous, since that time in Beilu, my eyes are not as good as before, so I have some medicine, but this medicine is taken by ordinary people, and my eyes are afraid of light, and my heart is empty. Xinyao, this girl, can't tell the severity, I can't stand this amount of medicine. But it doesn't hurt, it will be relieved in a few moments. "Gentle pressure on the fingertips at the temples relieves the feeling of vertigo in the brain.

"Since that wound is my responsibility, rest assured, I will help you recover. Bai Yixue felt guilty, clasped her hands, and promised seriously.

"It's okay, in a few years, it will be good when it's supposed to be good, but Senior Sister, how have you been doing in the past few years?" The steps under her feet paused for a moment, and it turned out that Senior Sister had never really let go, so she opened her mouth to comfort.

"What about the maid who followed you before, why is it gone?" Bai Yixue didn't seem to want to talk about this, but she didn't see Xin Yao left and right, so she hurriedly diverted the topic.

"I've already returned to the Divine Weapon Pavilion, some things have to be arranged early, and there will be a battle tonight. The corners of Zhuo Yucheng's mouth were slightly raised, as if he was in his chest. Xin Yao is just an inconspicuous maid, no matter what she does, no one will care, tonight, she is a great hero.

"Even though I've known you for many years, I still can't see through your thoughts" Bai Yixue chuckled and shook her head, this junior brother is talented and thoughtful, and she has had a lot of ghost ideas since she was a child, and she has long been accustomed to this.

"It's easy to say, before leaving, in addition to sending a message to you to ask for support, I also sent someone to the Great Prince's Mansion to pay a respect, inviting him to gather at the Divine Weapon Pavilion. If he didn't know about the rebels, then he should be dealing with the rebels with his own guards now, but the fact is that we were forcibly invited into the palace by the children of the family, so this assassination and siege have nothing to do with him. Seeing that Bai Yixue nodded undeniably, Zhuo Yucheng paused and continued.

"The eldest prince's move is a two-handed calculation, if we cooperate with the eldest prince, the siege of the Divine Weapon Pavilion can be solved, but we also owe the eldest prince a favor. In this way, not only did he get the help of the Divine Weapon Pavilion without spending a single soldier, but even the Xuanqing Palace had to sell his face. If the situation is really like this, according to the suspicious nature of the clan, I will definitely be asked to form an alliance with the order of the second prince, and at that time, I will not be restrained in this life. As the so-called defense of people is indispensable, they repented of framing me for the crime of assassinating the prince, and the foundation of the Divine Weapon Pavilion for hundreds of years was destroyed in one fell swoop. "There is a saying that it is difficult to draw the skin and bones, and you don't know the heart. The schemers should take one step and plan a thousand miles, and the conspiracy is treacherous, all between people's speculation. After hearing this, Bai Yixue shuddered in her heart, she couldn't imagine that people's hearts were so sinister, and she didn't feel that she pinched a cold sweat for Zhuo Yucheng.

Sensing the change in his senior sister's mood, Zhuo Yucheng said to her lightly: "Although Fang Cai said that everything is dangerous, as long as we are guests in the prince's mansion, they will wait, waiting for you and me to decide." When everyone is focused on you and me, Xinyao can create opportunities for us to escape. Fang Cai's tips are prepared for this, if Xinyao does it, then we will naturally retreat like now, if not, then we will hijack the eldest prince when visiting the Divine Casting Platform and force him to retreat. And whether he retreats or not, I will send a letter to the same gate outside the city, kill all these people, and when this matter is over, I will join Lin Xiao's soldiers and horses to gallop to the Divine Weapon Pavilion. ”

"Fang Cai also said that people's hearts are terrifying, and I think that you want to mediate among these people at a young age, and I am really worried about you, but I didn't expect that you will be as good as you. Bai Yixue coldly shook off a sentence, and walked forward alone without looking back.

"Senior sister, don't worry! Xin Yao had been a shadow guard before, and she was familiar with drugs and cars, so she was worried about hijacking...... Senior sister, don't be in such a hurry, the medicinal power in my body has not yet been exhausted......" As the voice gradually drifted away, the two figures in front of and behind disappeared into the depths of the dense forest in a short time.

......

At the same time, in the palace of the Great Prince, everyone's medicinal power has been dispersed, Mu Tiantuo is extremely angry, and the joint of the hand holding the wine glass is white, and in an instant, he only heard a "bang", and he actually crushed the wine glass in his hand.

"Husband......" Shen Junya said with concern from the side, her eyebrows frowning slightly and looking worried.

"It's okay, Junya, you're also frightened, let's go rest first, I have important matters to discuss with you. Even though he was aggrieved and angry, in the face of Shen Junya, Mu Tiantuo was still patient, said lightly to appease, and sent a maid to escort his wife back to the room, Mu Tiantuo led a group of elders into the inner hall with a solemn face.

Seeing that all the elders had left, the hall exploded instantly, and the core of the discussion was naturally this unreasonable Zhuo Dao Chief.

Fu Qingqing didn't like to be noisy in the first place, and when she saw this scene, she didn't want to stay for a long time, so she turned around and left. As soon as he arrived at the garden, he saw Meng Donglin coming later.

"Meng Gongzi also has Yaxing to enjoy the flowers at this time," Fu Qingqing asked with a light smile. Even if he is annoyed that this guy disturbs his purity, he still has to take care of it on his face.

"Instead of listening to those wine bags and rice bags chewing on the useless tongue and turning over the established theories, it is naturally more interesting to accompany Qingqing to enjoy the flowers. Meng Donglin has always regarded himself very highly and disdainfully as other children of his generation.

"Oh, Qingqing was puzzled, and dared to ask Meng Gongzi what was the established theory. The so-called conclusion, Fu Qingqing's heart is like snow, but she pretends to be puzzled, so as not to refute Meng Donglin's face.

At present, the beauty is rare, and Meng Donglin naturally wants to show his talents: "Qingqing, although you are full of wealth and literature, you still owe some heat to this palace fight." Originally, Zhuo Yucheng was just hoping that the group of Taoist priests and iron-striking people would not get in the way. It's a pity that this Zhuo Yucheng doesn't know how to lift, although this son is not a problem, but he is only afraid of giving birth to other variables, and he will have a lot of dreams at night. Tonight, this Divine Weapon Pavilion will not be left behind."

"But Qingqing heard that the Divine Weapon Pavilion is supported by a formation, and a strong breakthrough is afraid that it will be seriously damaged. Fu Qingqing laughed in her heart, but her face was full of doubts.

Meng Donglin smiled and said: "Qingqing, guess how he would answer if you asked the eldest prince like this?"

"Meng Gongzi said with a smile, how can I know the thoughts of the eldest prince. Waving his hands, Fu Qingqing took a few steps back imperceptibly.

"Ahem" Meng Donglin didn't care, cleared his throat, and said in Mu Tiantuo's tone: "These remnants of the previous dynasty, if they hadn't seen some use, would have been suppressed by me a long time ago." ”

"Poof, Gongzi Meng, you are not afraid that the eldest prince will treat you with a crime of disrespect. The sleeves of his shirt hid his face, blocking his sneering look at Meng Donglin.

The Pomeranian just smiled, and the eldest prince was tolerant and did not care. ”

......
