Chapter 205: Fighting the Grass and Startling the Snake (3)
In June, Yuan Che noticed that there was something unusual in the house.
First of all, Yingluo began to be distracted, always leaving early and returning late; Besides, Wang Tuo's mind is not belonging, and he doesn't know what he is thinking every day......
Moreover, the two gradually began to stop talking to each other. Could it be that something awkward? It just so happened that the position of the commander of the Gyeonggi Defense Department had been undecided, and he was so focused on this that he had no time to take care of these two people.
It was not until the end of August that the commander of the Gyeonggi Defense Division had been roughly decided, and he regained his thoughts. However, he also gradually felt irritable. There is no other reason, the soldier Qian Fei recommended by his father is too unlucky!
I don't know if it's a coincidence or what, at this juncture when the commander of the Gyeonggi Defense Department was promoted, the home of Qian Fei, the squire of the military department, was stolen, all the cash and a few valuables that were not given by the emperor were all gone, and there was not a single clue in the partial case, and I didn't know if it was an internal thief or an external thief for half a month!
Such a person can't even keep his own house, how can the old man hand over the Gyeonggi land to him? It must be known that this defense division is the last line of defense of Ning Guo, strong soldiers outside, stable internal security, and an errand under the nose of the old man, how can he not be extremely careful?
Yuan Che doesn't need to guess too much to know that the case of Qian Fei's house being stolen will definitely be used by Yuan Zhan's party to make a big fuss and shake the old man's determination to choose people!
Sure enough, on the first day of the ninth month, Wang Tuo brought back the news, saying that the officials had drafted the candidates for submission, and the old man was ready to appoint Chen Gong, the fellow of the Defense Division, to take over!
After working for three months, he finally made wedding clothes for others, and the candidates recommended by him and Yunchen became foils! The first battle with the prince Sun Yuan Zhan was lost!
Yuan Che is extremely depressed! I was irritable for several days.
Wang Tuo saw that the time was almost up, so he stepped forward at the right time to comfort: "There are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and this matter is all to blame for Qian Fei's restless house, and it has nothing to do with your ability." ”
As soon as he said this, Yuan Che's mood seemed to be better, so he hurriedly persuaded again: "My subordinates think that since Chen Gong has taken over as the commander, we can still work hard for the position of Tongzhi that he vacated." After all, it is much easier to have your own person in the Gyeonggi Defense Division. ”
Yuan Che raised his eyebrows and looked at Wang Tuo: "What you said still makes some sense." I used to always want to fight for the first, but now I can't fight for the first, and I can barely talk about the second to comfort me! ”
Wang Tuo echoed a few more words.
As the two were talking, they saw Wei Nong coming from not far away, still holding a tray in his hand. Yuan Che's eyes rolled, and he immediately came up with an idea: "Yuan Zhan's new official has taken office, should we also give him a little head to taste?" ”
Wang Tuo also glanced at Wei Nong and asked puzzledly, "What do you mean...... Want to use Yingluo? ”
"Oh, it has nothing to do with her," Yuan Che smiled, "I just think of Yuan Zhan as soon as I see her." When I think of Yuan Zhan, I feel uncomfortable. As soon as I was uncomfortable, I came up with an idea. ”
Wang Tuo's expression looked a little strange.
Yuan Che didn't care much, and immediately whispered to Wang Tuo: "Didn't the money just be stolen from home?" Tell him to make a fuss, and say that he suspects that there are thieves near Gyeonggi, and see how Chen Gong, the new official, will deal with it? ”
Wang Tuo couldn't help but praise: "Shizi's idea is so wonderful!" Then we'll order some more materials......"
Before he finished speaking, Weinong was already getting closer, and both of them closed their mouths in time.
Wei Thick looked at his nose and nose, put down the tray, and said: "Shizi, your father sent someone to send spices, saying that you have always prepared spices in all seasons, and this trip has been delayed in Lidu for a long time, and he is afraid that you will not bring enough, so he specially sent someone to send it over." ”
Yuan Che was a little puzzled: "Why did you send it?" ”
Wei Nong was also puzzled: "I don't understand, the door is designated to be handed over to me, let me pass it on to you." ”
Yuan Che lifted the tray in her hand and looked at it, and immediately understood, and snorted.
Wei Nong looked at a tray of spices, and still didn't quite understand.
Yuan Che always had a hard time telling her that it was her father who heard that he had finally found a female guard, so he deliberately found an excuse to send someone to see her.
But Wang Tuo had already understood, and his expression became even more complicated.
Yuan Che's mood had changed slightly, but he was troubled by his father Wei Hou, and he began to be irritable again. He said to Wang Tuo: "I want to fight, you bring the Dragon Yin Sword and accompany me to practice." ”
Wang Tuo's face did not change, but his tone was a little bitter: "Shizi, if you use the Dragon Yin Sword to fight your subordinates, your subordinates will definitely lose." ”
Yuan Che was so angry that he stomped his feet: "Lao Tzu just wants to win, if I don't win, why should I use the Dragon Yin Sword?" Can I compare to you in fist and foot kung fu? ”
Wang Tuo didn't dare to say anything more, and hurriedly ran to get his sword.
Wei Nong originally wanted to laugh, but when she heard the three words of Long Yin Sword, she couldn't laugh anymore.
Yuan Che glanced at her: "What are you still standing for?" ”
"Well, I'd like to see you compete." Wei Nong casually lied.
"My body is chic and changing, and my swordsmanship is unparalleled in the world, you must not steal the teacher!" Yuan Che was ashamed to speak.
Wei Nong nodded again and again, and suddenly laughed uncontrollably.
After a short time, Wang Tuo ran back with the Dragon Yin Sword in his hand, and Yuan Che immediately broke up the fight. He uncovered the yellow silk cloth and drew his sword out of its sheath with a "whoosh", only to feel a flash of golden light in front of him.
"Next!" Yuan Che gave her the scabbard, and then tried it with Wang Tuo murderously.
Wei Nong unconsciously took the scabbard, only to feel that the weight in his hand seemed to be a thousand catties. She looked down and saw that there was a lifelike golden dragon carved on the scabbard, undulating, hideous, winding, and treacherous, as if it was about to rise from the scabbard, ready to fight in the sky!
Dragon's Sword...... This is the scabbard of the Dragon's Sword! But how could such a sword be in Yuan Che's hands? Is it what Yunchen is looking for?
Wei Nong's mind turned quickly, and she couldn't even hear the sound of fighting and shouting in her ears, and when she came back to her senses, Yuan Che had already called her twice: "Yingluo? Yingluo! ”
Wei Nong was still not very comfortable with this name, so he hurriedly said "oh" and replied: "Congratulations to Shizi for winning." ”
Yuan Che smiled coldly: "So you still saw it?" Do you have eyes on your forehead? ”
"The first time I saw the Dragon Yin Sword, I am afraid that those who practice martial arts will not be able to take their eyes off. I hope you will forgive me for not being knowledgeable. "Wei Nong found a perfect reason.
This is a fact, Yuan Che also believed it, so he took the scabbard from her hand and returned the sword into the sheath with a "swish". The slightly thick gaze was still lingering on the dragon sword, and he couldn't control himself at all.
Yuan Che saw it in his eyes, and asked quietly, "What?" Want to see this sword? ”
He hesitated for a moment and nodded.
Yuan Che pulled out the sword body again as if showing off, this time he heard it clearly, and when the sword body was unsheathed, it would let out a crisp low groan, which was slender and echoed in his ears.
She suddenly realized: "No wonder it's called 'Dragon Yin'." ”
However, Yuan Che only shook the sword in front of her eyes for a moment, and immediately put it back into its sheath. But only at this moment, she already felt that the cold light was paving, and the cold and tempering intention invaded.
Yuan Che asked triumphantly, "How?" Is it a peerless sword? It's better than your Emei thorn, right? ”
Wei Nong admired sincerely, pondered for a moment, and still said tentatively: "I always thought that the Dragon Yin Sword would be in the Ning Palace. ”
She saw that Yuan Che had a faint change of color, so she immediately explained: "After all, the name of this sword is 'Dragon Yin', which is a symbol, right?" ”
Hearing this, Yuan Che's face suddenly became indescribable, as if he remembered something, and he looked very frustrated: "This sword was given by His Royal Highness Prince Zhaoren." ”
Zhaoren is the original name of the late Prince Ning, that is, Qi Zhan's father. Yuan Che didn't call him "Uncle Prince", but called him so respectfully, which shows that the relationship between their uncle and nephew is still good. Thinking about it, if the relationship is not good, how could Prince Ning give the Dragon Yin Sword to Yuan Che?
It was about to be touched on the past, and Yuan Che's face became more and more calm, but it didn't look like he was angry. Seeing this, Wei Nong didn't dare to ask more, and waited quietly for him to show him.
At this moment, a guard came to report: "Qi Qi Shizi, Jiang Guo has paid tribute to ten good horses." The king gave you two horses, and now the father-in-law has arrived at the gate of the house. ”
When Yuan Che heard this, he finally recovered some of his spirits, and glanced at Wei Nong before asking, "Do you know how many horses the prince has got?" ”
"This ...... The subordinates don't know. The guard replied.
But Yuan Che was still very happy and immediately went to the front hall to receive his father-in-law. He took the sweat towel and wiped his sweat, and thought for a moment before giving the Longyin sword to Wang Tuo: "You put the sword away." ”
After that, he pointed to Wei Nong: "You follow me to see Father-in-law." ”
Wei Nong immediately resisted: "I can't go!" "She once went to King Ning's Palace, and that father-in-law was on an errand beside King Ning, so he must have seen her!
Yuan Che also came to his senses and smiled back: "Oh, I almost forgot, you can't see the people in the palace." Then he went to the front hall to greet him.
Wang Tuo didn't say anything more, wiped and wrapped the dragon sword, and planned to release the sword.
Wei Nong didn't think much about it, and hurriedly asked him, "Can I follow?" ”
Wang Tuo's expression was a little strange, and after looking at her for a long time, he said, "Come along!" ”
The two walked on the road, and Wang Tuo deliberately kept some distance from her. Wei Nong had already discovered that he had been alienating himself recently, and said a little embarrassedly: "The Wang guard is still angry with me? ”
Wang Tuo was stunned: "What are you angry about?" ”
"On the night of the wedding of the prince and grandson, you asked me to serve Lord Yun."
"You're thinking too much." Wang Tuo's face did not change.
Wei Nong also felt that he would not be so stingy, and he couldn't help but feel relieved, and carefully provoked the topic: "Why is a sword weapon like the Dragon Yin Sword in the hands of the prince?" Shouldn't it be enshrined in the palace? ”
Wang Tuo glanced at her before he said, "This sword king has long been given to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and has been treasured in the East Palace. Over the years, His Royal Highness's health has deteriorated, and he has no heirs under his knees, and he once thought about passing the son to the East Palace, so he gave the sword to the prince. ”
