Chapter 188: Watching the Game
Yun Yanzheng secretly sighed in his heart, Qin Wuxian of Chengguo was indeed not so easy to fool.
Fang Juan said indifferently: "It's a bit hidden...... he glanced sideways at Yun Yanzheng, and said coldly: "We killed an enemy, and this person is the royal family and nobles of the Yu Kingdom, and now their family not only wants us to be wanted by the government, but also invites killers on the rivers and lakes to pursue us." My sister was a little injured, and now she happened to meet Ji Gongzi again, so she wanted to take refuge under Ji Gongzi's wing, save some strength, and avoid the eyes and ears of these people. ”
"Which royal prince and nobleman of Yu Kingdom did you assassinate?" Qin Wuxian asked unhurriedly, his gaze once again swept over Yun Yanzheng's face, who had been silent for a long time.
Fang Juan said indifferently: "Liao Da, the Minister of Households." ”
Qin Wuxian nodded and said with a smile: "Sure enough, I heard the news of this adult's assassination, but I didn't expect it to be the handiwork of Mu Gongzi and the others. ”
Yun Yanzheng's heart was stable, she knew that Yi Fang Juan's familiarity with the context of Yu State, and she was comfortable enough to deal with Qin Wuxi's questions.
"The two of you are going to the Secret Medicine Pavilion too?" Qin Wuxian poured a glass of wine for Fang Juan and asked slowly.
"Yes, my sister's face is a little injured and poisoned, and she just wants to go to the Secret Medicine Pavilion to find a famous doctor for treatment." Fang Juan was still cold and authentic, but there was a little more sincerity in his words.
Yun Yanzheng chuckled in his heart, this person usually looks cold, a taciturn and cold appearance, once he gets involved, he doesn't blink when he lies.
Qin Wuxian smiled slightly, and before he could speak, Fang Juan had already taken out a purple jade bottle from his sleeve, put his hands on the table, and said coldly: "There are two soothing and nourishing pills here, and as our business to follow Gongzi forward, when he arrives at the Secret Medicine Pavilion safely, we will have treasures to be rewarded." ”
Yun Yanzheng chuckled in his heart, his eyes slanted slightly, and he didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd. Since traveling all the way, she naturally knows that he must have received a lot of elixirs when he came out of the palace, but I don't know what other treasures he has in his arms?
He used medicine as a lure, and now he is showing favor with pills, and even said such a fascinating sentence, I don't know what kind of calculation and calculation he is playing in his heart?
The bright moon shone obliquely behind Fang Juan, and in the backlight, his face and figure seemed to be dissolved in the misty halo, with the half-light and half-darkness in the flickering firelight, a smile rose on the corner of his lips, which was meaningful and looming.
Qin Wuxian pondered for a moment, his fingers tapped on the tabletop, his eyes swept over the purple jade bottle on the table, his eyes seemed to change a little, and said, "Okay, but you have to promise me three conditions." ”
"One."
"One."
Yun Yan Zheng and Fang Juan spoke almost in unison.
Qin Wuxi's smile deepened a little deeper, and he said, "You brothers and sisters have the same heart and mind, and they are of the same heart. ”
Yun Yanzheng blinked and stopped talking.
Fang Juan said solemnly: "We first gave medicine twice before and after, and now we have agreed to a condition, I hope that Gongzi Ji will not gain an inch." Even if it's just a condition, please ask Ji Gongzi to make it clear and clear, and let us consider it. ”
Yuguo, in the city of Baiduo.
Cold Garden Lotus Garden.
In early summer, the pond is full of lotus flowers, and the green leaves are in the sky. The wind rises, the green cover overturns, and the fragrance wafts through the flowers. The wind is extinguished, the disk is in the sky, and the hibiscus is shining in the sun. In the clear water, fine fish play in algae, and in the morning light, flowing clouds float in the distant mountains.
By the flower pond, there are a few ancient sandalwood dwarf trees.
A chessboard was placed on it, and the black and white men were fighting.
The bearer of the sunspot is a young man, he is dressed in a water-green shirt, his five fingers are slender and slender, his facial features are beautiful, and he has a quiet and beautiful demeanor when sitting by the flower pond. He is already a painting without saying a word, not to mention that his expression is so warm, his clothes are so ethereal, and his long hair is so silky, every move will make people lose their minds.
And at this moment, there is a young girl holding the white child opposite, she is wearing a purple gauze dress, which looks mysterious and graceful. The black hair is in a light bun, with a silver hairpin, and the purple jade tassel behind the bun hangs long behind her, gently swinging with her movements, drawing a moving arc in the air. Her appearance is stunning, her skin is as white as snow, there is a cold feeling between her eyebrows, and when her eyes sweep over the chessboard in front of her, there is a trace of murderous aura in her eyes.
"Young Master Yan, are you sure that they will definitely go to the Secret Medicine Pavilion?" After the girl pressed a seed, she asked with a cold expression.
"I'm pretty sure." Yan Rongzhi smiled faintly, showing a smile as clean as ice and snow, his eyes quietly fell a seed, and replied: "Mr. Secret Valley is dead, if you want to recover your appearance, the only way to go to the Secret Medicine Pavilion to seek medical treatment." Although Gu Xi is now hiding his whereabouts, he will let people set up a guard and round up on the way to the Secret Medicine Pavilion. ”
"You said the person he was going to round up was a cloud of words?" The girl's smile was faint, like a snow lotus blooming on the top of the mountain, noble and indifferent, "He is now rumored to capture Yun Yanzheng alive, is his affection for Yun Yanzheng so easy to attack and vulnerable?" ”
"Whether there is affection or not, I can't say." Yan Rongzhi smiled slightly, his smile was far-reaching, and he kept playing chess.
According to historical records, Yun Yanzheng's mother concubine was born in the Bai family, a nobleman in the Wei Kingdom, and now the Bai family has also declined with her death. But Yun Yanzheng's real grandfather is Chu Tiankai, who has long left the Bai family, and is quite famous and mysterious in the rivers and lakes. It is rumored that Chu Tiankai got a map of Xuanji treasures and mountains and rivers left by the ancients by chance? ”
"The princess's message is really sensitive." Yan Rongzhen smiled and nodded gently.
"Gu Xi's real purpose in using Yun Yanzheng is to use her to find the uncertain Chu Tiankai and get these two things?" When the girl spoke, her eyes never took off the chessboard, her eyes were slightly cold at the moment, and a seed fell in her hand, step by step.
Yan Rongzhi's eyes were slightly deep, and he pondered for a moment before saying: "Gu Xiqi is not only cold-hearted and cold-hearted, but also likes to play tricks the most, and is also as cunning as a fox. ”
"Yun Yanzheng of the Wei Kingdom and Mu Qi of the Mo Country are just pawns used by him to compete for the world?" The girl snorted coldly and sighed: "Gu Yi is nothing more than this, and Yun Yanzheng and Mu Qi are just like this!" I heard that Mu Qi obeyed your words for him, and did not hesitate to drug the person she liked; Yun Yanzheng gave up the Nine Heavens Ride to leave the Ul Kingdom for him, and he did not hesitate to ruin his appearance and be disheartened. I really disdain to be in the company of them, I have no backbone, and I am called the four beauties of Kyushu by the world, which is really ridiculous. ”
"The princess lives in a simple place, and everyone in the world only knows your four beautiful and peerless faces, how can they know the difference in your character." Yan Rongzhen's voice was gentle and smooth, and it was forgettable to listen to, obviously a compliment, but it was so natural from his mouth, without a trace of awkwardness and embarrassment.
"The words of compliment come out of your mouth, and I'm still a little scared." The girl smiled and whispered, "Who knows what kind of thoughts turned in your heart when you said this. ”
Yan Rong smiled and didn't say anything, just silently ate a large piece of chess pieces in her hand.
The girl frowned slightly, and after a while, she sighed in a low voice: "Sure enough, there can't be a trace of carelessness." If you don't pay attention, you will lose. She stretched out her hand and pushed away the chess pieces, and she was not annoyed, but smiled slightly: "You helped my second brother take Fu Ji to the Secret Medicine Pavilion, did you have a plan?" ”
Yan Rong folded a pair of soft ink jade eyes and looked into another pair of clear ink jade eyes, looked at his clear shadow reflected there, and said with a smile: "Everything can't be hidden from your eyes, princess." ”
After the girl looked at him for a moment, she lowered her eyes and said as usual: "My father intends to choose one of the eldest brother and the second brother to inherit the throne as the crown prince. What's the mystery behind this? There is also a Fu Ji by his side, such a daughter is long, and the hero is short of breath, if his father learns about it, he must say that he is not worthy of the responsibility. ”
"Have you asked your second brother, does he want to inherit the throne?" Yan Rongzhi asked lightly while storing the jade chess pieces in the chess bowl.
"Second brother, he may not want to, but he is the most suitable candidate." The girl said from her heart: "If you talk about the wisdom of the eldest brother and the second brother, they have their own victories, but the eldest brother was born with a disease, and he is not tired and shoulders the great cause of inheriting the prosperity of the country." ”
"Then you once asked your eldest brother if he wanted to resist this great cause and die unrelentingly?" Yan Rongzhi asked with a slightly solemn expression, and his fingers still methodically put away the chess pieces.
"Big brother...... He had a great plan in his heart, and he was unwilling to lose to this innate disease. The girl's face was still proud, but her eyes were slightly gloomy. Both brothers are the pride of her heart, and she is happy for whoever is on the pagoda. But in contrast, she hopes that they can always be by her side, rather than losing to illness.
If the second brother can take on the heavy responsibility, and the eldest brother only assists from the side, then all this can make her feel more at ease. It's just that the eldest brother wants to fight in his heart, but the second brother has no intention in his heart.
"Your second brother naturally knows your eldest brother's intentions, so he wants to sneak out of Chengguo with Fu Ji at this time and go to the Secret Medicine Pavilion to seek medical treatment." Yan Rongzhen's words were clear.
"This is one of them, but you have other plans, right?" The girl chuckled.
Yan Rongzhi did not evade, only nodded slightly: "I also hope that your second brother can find Yun Yanzheng when she goes out at this time, if she can help her when she is in the most danger, such a friendship in the snow, if Chengguo wants to ally with her in the future, there will be an extra layer of protection." "He's talking about the clouds, not the country.
A trace of disdain flashed in the girl's eyes, but after deep thought, she felt that what he said was not unreasonable. If the Wei Kingdom loses Yun Yanzheng, first of all, the Nine Heavens Ride will shake people's hearts, and if they recruit people to sow discord, it is easy to be dissatisfied with the Emperor of the Wei Kingdom who attacked them and Yun Yanzheng back then.
At that time, if you are provoked by others, it is also possible to rebel. Yun Yanzheng, who is now resigning as the commander, is still the same Yun Yanzheng who picked up the army created by her mother and rebuilt the Nine Heavens Cavalry. At this point, she also has to admire her, since the death of the White Queen, this army has mostly been idle, not only not attracted the attention of the emperor, but also attacked by various factions in the court, but Yun Yanzheng can also allow them to regain the emperor's trust, reawaken vitality under her hands, and rebuild the glory of the year.
If it weren't for the iron bucket-like army of Yun Yanzheng to protect the Wei Kingdom over the years, with the meager strength of her royal brother and emperor, the Wei Kingdom would have been invaded by other countries many times. That Emperor Wei's vision is so short-sighted, and his heart is so narrow-minded, as the princess of Chengguo, she is a little sympathetic and regretful, but more secretly happy.
Moreover, Yun Yanzheng's secret guards and spies were all given by the old man of Shanhu, and they were extremely outstanding among the four great powers. If someone plotted to kill her, presumably both of them would avenge her at all costs, not to mention that there was an old man from the mountains and lakes behind them.
