Both sides silently persevered, and after a long time, Yuan Che deliberately made a compromise and sighed: "That's it, I'll try your clothes reluctantly!" Bring them all in here! As he spoke, he turned and walked into the tent, looking swaggering.
Wei Nong hurriedly sent all his men's clothes over for Yuan Che to try them on one by one, although each one was a little short, but it was barely able to wear it. Good skin is good skin, even if the texture of the robe is ordinary, the size does not fit, Yuan Che can also give a little bit of the meaning of Yushu in the wind.
She praised Yuan Che with a slight conscience, and praised Yuan Che to the point that there was nothing in the sky and the earth, so she stopped. Yuan Che was still unhappy, so he deliberately sniffed the clothes on his body and pouted: "A feminine smell." β
Wei Nong hurriedly argued: "I'm clean!" β
"I have a smart nose, can't I?" Yuan Che is right.
There are many problems with rich and noble people! Wei Nong didn't explain again, only smiled and said, "Then you can rest!" I...... I'm going to hunt some game for you. β
"Hey! You don't say 'you' for days, you just call 'you'. Yuan Che was satisfied to lie down again, covering his own futon to the lower half of his body, and covering the slightly thick futon to the upper part of himself, before he closed his eyes and waved at her: "Go!" Don't forget to make pot soup! β
Wei Nong replied casually, and casually tidied up the quilt for him and left the tent.
It wasn't until he heard footsteps fading away that Yuan Che reopened his eyes and sniffed the smell on the futon. There was a faint fragrance between the snorts, which seemed to be the fragrance of plants and trees, the freshness of dew, and the fragrance of soaphorn...... But it can't hide the faint female body fragrance.
Yuan Che turned over, buried his head in the quilt, and fell into a deep sleep.

Just when Wei Nong took care of Yuan Che for the sake of the two volumes of national policy, Yun Xiao also hurried down the mountain day and night. In the past few days, she has had a hard time sleeping in the open air, but fortunately, she has left a pair of Emei thorns, which can barely be used to hunt some game, and she is familiar with the medicinal properties of herbs, and she can also heal herself.
But Rao is like this, when she walked to the foot of Peacock Mountain, she was still as filthy as a beggar, and she no longer had her previous beautiful face. At the source of the Maoyan River, the sound of water poured, and the boulder that was engraved with words still stands, telling the relaxed atmosphere half a month ago - "Kong Wu, Kong You, Kong Li came here to visit, and this inscription is hereby inscribed".
Yun Xiao stroked the left side of her face, the hatred in her eyes swept over, and she raised the Emei thorn and scraped it off the boulder, scraping the word "Kong Li" beyond recognition. However, she still felt that she couldn't understand the hatred, so she turned to the back of the boulder and carved the eight characters "This revenge will not be avenged, and the oath will not be a person" with Emei thorns to remind herself of the insult she received on Peacock Mountain.
In this way, she seemed to feel more comfortable, and she lingered at the foot of the mountain for two more days. She weaved two large baskets out of vines, picked enough wild fruits and herbs for a month, and then descended to the source of the Maoyan River, where the boat had been docked.
The water at the source is clear and visible, and the light is as bright as a mirror. Yun Xiao squatted down and washed her face, and saw her reflection on the water. Not to mention, the three scars on the left half of her cheek are extremely dazzling, and they have completely ruined her beauty!
She screamed in disbelief, and kept slapping her hand on the water, cursing hoarsely as if she was crazy: "The night is thick! Hara! I want you not to die well! Come to a sticky end! β
She kept venting her hatred and anger, as if she had taken the water as her enemy, until her hands beat in pain, and she finally refused to stop. But the hands began to bleed again.
In order to survive in the past few days, her hands have already been scratched by tree branches, worn by vines, the nails of the little finger of her right hand are gone, and the palm of her hand is full of flesh and blood.
Not to mention rowing with a paddle with her hands, it would be very difficult to hold the oars. But remembering the revenge in her heart, she had the motivation again, so she carried all the wild fruits and herbs to the ship, untied the cable and prepared to start the ship.
However, just as she stretched out her right hand to grab the cable, a pocket knife suddenly flew out of nowhere and pierced the back of her hand. Yun Xiao let go of her hand in pain, and then felt horrified in her heart - there are outsiders here!
As soon as the thought arose, a lightly dressed young man had already walked out from behind the strange stones on the riverbank, and a smile appeared on his unsmiling face: "Miss Yun, long time no see." β
The voice...... Yun Xiao looked at the person with wide eyes: "It's you?" Wang Tuo! β
Wang Tuo held one hand behind him, played with the flying knife in his hand with the other, and slowly smiled: "The prince and the girl Weinong haven't come down the mountain yet, why did you come down?" Still making such a mess? I almost didn't recognize it. β
Yun Xiao froze down, afraid that there would be other people around, so he could only reluctantly reply: "I...... I couldn't bear the hardship, so I came down first. β
"Oh? Is it? Wang Tuo narrowed his eyes: "I thought it was the prince and the girl in distress." β
After that, he looked at the mountain gate again: "Where are the remaining guards of our Wei Hou Mansion?" Why didn't you see it? β
How he knows it all! A hint of coolness rose in the back of Yun Xiao's head: "Oh, I just went down the mountain when I saw Yu Shangqing coming." The prince said, "He will send someone to give my brother's share." β
That thing? Wang Tuo frowned, he didn't know what Yuan Che was doing when he came up the mountain, not only did he not know, but Wei Hou didn't know either. The letter left by Yuan Che before his departure was ambiguous, only saying that he would be deliberately attacked and disappeared, and if there was no news from him by the end of May, he would ask Wei Hou to send someone to the upper reaches of the Maoyan River to look for him.
Wei Hou originally agreed, but a few days later, the news came: the escort team was attacked in Youzhou, the battle was tragic, the whole army was annihilated, and the prince of Wei Hou and the deposed queen of the twilight clan also disappeared! When Wei Hou heard the news, he couldn't rest assured that his son was not at ease, so he decided to send someone to find it secretly along the Maoyan River in advance.
Wang Tuo pretended to be worried about the safety of his master, volunteered to be a pioneer, and quietly slipped into the territory when King Jiang was assassinated and a domestic coup d'Γ©tat, and went retrograde along the Maoyan River. The hard work paid off, and after a month of floating on the Maoyan River, he finally saw the boat at the source.
Originally, he was not sure who the ship belonged to, and he had been considering whether to enter the mountain or not, or to go back and report the news first. But after waiting here for a day, I happened to meet Yun Xiao and cursed Yuan Che and Wei Nong by the river.
was deceived by him like this, and even cheated out some inside information! Yuan Che and Wei Nong really are in this inaccessible mountain, and they are here to find something! And Yunchen is also involved! This news was too important, and he felt that he should report it to Nie Xingji immediately! As for Yuan Che and Wei Nong, he speculated that there should be no danger for the time being.
Thinking of this, he withdrew the flying knife in his hand into his sleeve and replied to Yun Xiao: "I'm really sorry Miss Yun, my hands are faster than my brain, and when I saw someone stealing the boat, I threw out the flying knife without thinking about it." And then I recognize you. β
Yun Xiao covered her right hand, smiled reluctantly, and didn't dare to answer. She was thinking about how to escape from this place, but suddenly a cold light flashed in front of her, and a flying knife was right in her throat!
With a "plop", she fell into the cat's eye river with a distorted face, and twitched for a long time before she stopped moving. Wang Tuo walked up to her and probed her snort, until he was sure that she was out of breath, then pulled out the throwing knives from her throat and the back of her hand one by one, and then kicked her hard in the direction of the river. This kick was considered a boost, and Yun Xiao's embarrassed body floated downstream along the flowing water.
The poor generation of beauties is in their teens, but they died at the hands of people because of delusions in their hearts. The river washed away the blood and mud on her body, washing away her messy hair, and the bright face that had been before instantly looked extremely hideous, as if blinded by jealousy and hatred, and could only be vaguely recognized as a woman. That's all.
Wang Tuo looked at her dead appearance, and said to himself: "Don't blame me, keeping you is a scourge after all." β
He watched as Yun Xiao's floating corpse drifted slowly down the river, until the latter's corpse was no longer visible, and then he cleaned up the blood stains on the ground, trying to disguise it as a trace that no one had visited. After confirming that everything was restored, he dragged his boat out from behind the strange stone, transferred all the wild fruits and herbs that Yun Xiao had picked, and then jumped on the boat and rowed away.
In a few days, it will be the rainy season of Jiang Guo, and Yun Xiao's body will be soaked beyond recognition, and I don't know where it is rotting. And then this place, as if he had never been there.

Half a month later, when Wang Tuo returned to land from Maoyan River, Jiang Guo was already in a muddy water. As Yuan Che said, the reason why Queen Jiang Chu Yao was loved by the people of Jiang was because she had a generous and tolerant husband, and this husband was weak and sick, and he was willing to hand over the power to her.
But after all, she is a foreigner and a woman, and there will be more or less forces in Jiang Guoguo that exclude her, among which the most distinctive attitude is Jiang He, the second brother of King Jiang. He first spread rumors, saying that Yunchen was Queen Jiang's male favorite; Now, with the support of the Marquis of Wei, a new round of rumors has been released - Queen Jiang wants to use the power of Jiang to help the old Chu restore the country.
If the first rumor did not cause much turmoil in Jiang's country, then the power of this rumor should not be underestimated. Besides, this is not a rumor, just looking at what Queen Jiang is doing now, she is by no means idle.
People in the world may not all believe the truth, and they may not easily believe falsehoods, but the terrible thing about rumors is that they are half-truths and half-truths, which make people half-believe.
Jiang Guo was in an uproar.
At this time, the Marquis of Wei and Jiang He conspired to assassinate King Jiang, who was seriously injured as a result, and Jian Zhiyuan had been seriously ill for many years, and now he was on the verge of dying. Jiang He took advantage of the situation to set off a wave of opposition to Queen Jiang, and gathered all the courtiers who had been suppressed, persecuted, and condemned by Queen Jiang, and jointly issued a document claiming to "clear the monarch's side and return the monarch's power".
