The capital city of Qinzhou.

The Song Mansion is located in the east of the city, where the powerful gather, the wealthy and the high-ranking families are gathered, which can be called the 'heart of Qinzhou'.

Outside the door of the three rooms, there are two tall male lions silent, with fierce eyes and fangs, majestic and breathtaking.

When I raised my eyes, I saw a gilded rosewood plaque engraved with the word 'Song Mansion', hanging above the towering mansion gate, with golden characters in the seal body, shining.

Jump over the door of the house, you can see the floating picture shadow wall made by the granite of Nanchu, the flowers, birds, beasts and insects on it are luxuriant, it is a grand view, then if you look closely, you can find that between the patterns, there seems to be a mysterious rune riddle, the sun and moon are shrouded, and the dazzling light flashes away.

Moving the line of sight upward, overlooking the Song Mansion from a low altitude, you can see this huge mansion of 150 zhang from north to south, 70 zhang from east to west, covering an area of nearly 200 acres.

The inner pavilion stands majestically, the carved beams and painted buildings, the courtyard is tortuous and deep, the blue pond is quiet and clear, the rockery stone waterfall, the flying stream is murmuring, just like a stream.

Under the green bricks and green tiles, the corners of the eaves are warped, and between the intrigues and corners, there are carved arrays, and occasionally there are flying swallows and birds passing by, and they disappear into invisibility.

A glimpse of the whole picture, although you don't know the inside, but you can know a little bit about the luxury of the owner of this mansion.

When Xiahou Chun and the others walked outside the Song Mansion, even Murong Yan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, this mansion was much more magnificent than her in the Eastern Capital.

Fang Xirou commented: "The crescent moon river is like a dragon, and the water looks like a tiger from afar, even the palace is not allowed to let it go." ”

The Fudi Rock drives the crane bridge, and the gate of heaven descends to the Luan.

Survey the chaotic flags and turn into cloud trees, and the jagged pavilions fall into the smoke.

Xiahou Chun's face was calm, and after raising his eyes to look at the hidden spiritual fluctuations under the eaves and corner formations, he said slowly: "I never expected that in this small city of Qinzhou, there was a prince and a king with a different surname, which made the palace really surprised." ”

Fang Xirou looked back in surprise, "Even you don't know this?" ”

Yang Zhong on the side gave Xiahou Chun a round scene, only to see his thick lips open, and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness doesn't know that this is also understandable, because this palace was not built by my Dajing, nor is it the mansion of the king of the Western Song Dynasty." ”

Murong Yan's eyes suddenly dewed, and there seemed to be a trace of reminiscence in her eyes, she nodded a little, and said softly: "Yes, this mansion was once the residence of Liu Yuanting, the former minister of Yan, and this person is one of the few people who use 'calligraphy and figure painting'.

But this person is a first-class official, once an official to the former Yan Dongge University Scholar, the power is comparable to the prime minister, and the power is unparalleled for a while, so this person's mansion is far beyond the specifications of the ordinary palace, but with the fall of the former Yan, his person also died out. ”

She glanced at the Song Mansion, "Later, Qianyan was destroyed, and this mansion was tossed and turned several times, and I don't know when it fell into the hands of the Song family." ”

Xiahou Chun glanced at this deep mansion compound, there seemed to be a few places to renovate and repair, thinking that it was damaged by the war, but it was repaired by the Song family.

Fang Xirou looked around, and said with a pout: "The mansion chosen by the Song family is good, close to the Qinjiang River, but it is backed by the high wall of the mansion, which can be called 'both offensive and defensive', and it is also covered with a spiritual array Xuan pattern, even if it is a real person, it will not be good if you break in." ”

Xiahou Chun smiled lightly, "So, this palace is going to return empty-handed this time?" ”

Fang Xirou sneered lightly, "If you want to rely on those garrisons outside the city to break through this, I'm afraid it's a pipe dream." ”

Xiahou Chun glanced at her and said lightly, "Who said I was going to attack the Song family?" ”

Fang Xirou raised her eyebrows, "Could it be that you really plan to come to the door to apologize?" ”

Xiahou Chun directly turned the horse's head and walked towards the location of the state capital, and Yang Zhong and Ding Zhongyin followed closely.

Murong Yan groaned for a moment and fell into deep thought.

The masked man snorted coldly, "So it's mysterious." ”

Murong Yan glanced at the mansion, and she seemed to have an understanding.

"Stop!"

Fang Xirou was furious, chased after Xiahou Chun, and asked, "Don't fight and don't apologize, what do you want to do?" ”

Xiahou Chun said leisurely: "What is the identity of this palace, how can you apologize to him from the Song family?" ”

He suddenly turned his head to look at Commander Song beside him, and grinned: "Commander Song, you said yes?" ”

That person was the leader of the Song family who had led a hundred horsemen to 'eliminate thieves and thieves' outside the Qinshui Academy.

Strictly speaking, he is not surnamed Song, his real name is Yan, but he has meritorious service to the Song family, so he was given the surname, and he was proud of it and complacent, so he often led his iron cavalry to help those young masters of the Song family bully men and women.

Yan Xucheng was silent.

When Fang Xirou was messing around, Xiahou Chun rode his horse and paced and came to the outside of the Qinzhou Mansion.

After passing through a few busy streets, you turn onto a large main road.

The mottled bluestone slab paving of the main road stretches to the end of the long street, and there are high-rise mansions on both sides, all of which are hung with the plaques of the Cao Ministry.

A pair of Gejia soldiers patrolled the streets, their eyes did not squint, and their steps were steady, like elite people.

Xiahou Chun tilted his head and looked at Yang Zhong, who pursed his lips and said nothing, "How?" ”

Yang Zhong was silent for a while, and then said slowly: "The steps are uniform, the queue is orderly, and the armor of the soldiers is all of the highest grade. ”

As the former right commander of the Yulin Army, he can see at a glance whether the soldiers are strong or weak.

Xiahou Chun bowed his head lightly: "This is just a street patrol guard, I don't know how strong this Qinzhou city defense army is." ”

Murong Yan frowned slightly: "Then His Highness sent Commander Ding to the garrison outside the city to transfer troops, what does it mean?" ”

Fang Xirou sneered and rolled her eyes: "You've been walking together for so long, you don't know his urine yet, it's nothing more than bluffing, pulling the battle flag, and beating the war drums." ”

Murong Yan naturally knew Xiahou Chun's intentions, and she said softly: "Your Highness is not afraid, once the Song family really hides bad intentions, after learning that Your Highness is coming alone, will they take the opportunity to threaten you?" ”

Xiahou Chun glanced back at her and said with a smile: "You want to say that you are afraid that they will take the opportunity to cut off this neck head in the palace, right?" ”

The overlay said coldly: "I know that you are still so bold and reckless, you are small when you die, and it is difficult to atone for the death of my princess." ”

Murong Yan pulled the masked man and asked her to restrain herself, thanks to the fact that Lord Xiahou Chun has a large number of them, and she has never seen them along the way, otherwise this small team would have fallen out a long time ago.

He said lightly: "I have a decree of the Great Jing Law, and if I want to dispatch the garrison, it must, in addition to the central imperial edict, it must be allowed by the assassin of a state, and then the town army will be transferred by the superintendent of the army." ”

He smiled faintly: "And the current Qinzhou assassin is called Song Jing." ”

Fang Xirou was surprised, "Hey, could it be that you already know about this Qinzhou Song family?" ”

Xiahou Chun shook his head, "Our Song Thorn Shi is not a disciple of the Song clan in Qinzhou, but a person from the main line of the Song valve of the top ten families in Song Prefecture in Zhaozhong. ”

He looked at him with a sigh in his eyes and said softly: "It is also the only person in the Song Dynasty who has never crossed the main vein of the south. ”

This matter also came to my mind automatically after seeing the 'Song Mansion'.

After all, his predecessor was the Prince of Dajing, and he had participated in politics for many years, so he knew everything about the top ten families.

Murong Yan wanted to speak and stopped, and said in a low voice: "Brother Shi, this person who is the main vein of the Song valve must be close to the Song family in Qinzhou, so if we come to the door rashly on this trip, we are not afraid of being caught in his urn?" ”

Glancing at the trembling Song Commander, Xiahou Chunwan smiled, "Don't worry. ”

Xiahou Chun stopped, stopped outside the yamen, turned over and dismounted, and summoned a vigilant guard armor.

The gatekeeper was about to be furious when he saw someone stopping outside the Assassin's Mansion, but when he saw that this kid was not interested, he dared to stay here.

He immediately glared and shouted: "Where boy, don't you know what this place is?" ”

Xiahou Chun clenched his fists and smiled, "As soon as I was tired, I said that Taikang Xia Chun visited Lord Thorn Shi." ”

The armor soldier's face sank suddenly, and he said, "What is the identity of Lord Thorn Shi, and who can be seen by anyone?" ”

He waved his hand impatiently: "Hurry up and leave before the adults in the mansion find out, don't get in the way, otherwise you will offend the lords, and you can't afford to bear the guilt." ”

Xiahou Chun was about to speak again, but unexpectedly, an unhappy voice came from behind the mansion door: "Who is making noise here?" ”

An official in a scarlet robe stepped out, glanced at the door arrogantly, and sneered: "Commander Wang, are you getting fatter and fatter, and anyone dares to go to the mansion?" Do you want to do it here? ”

His grim gaze swept over several armor soldiers outside the door, and they all changed color.

This adult has always looked at them unpleasantly, and now he finally found an opportunity.

The armor soldier's face turned pale, and he immediately knelt down with a puff, "Please also ask Lord Zhou for forgiveness, it is a dereliction of duty, please don't blame a few brothers, everything is the fault of the humble duty." ”

The commander named Wang Jin has only nine ranks, and he can't compete with the five rank masters at all, and they can let him strip and leave with a paper order.

Lord Zhou smiled, "Well, for the sake of Lord Wang's sincere admission of mistakes, the official can also open the net, but tonight the official will see Miss Yun'er." ”

Wang Jin's face trembled, trembling like a sieve, and his expression smiled miserably.

This Lord Zhou has coveted Wang Jin's daughter for a long time, and has repeatedly revealed that he intends to include her in the concubine room, but Wang Jin has never agreed, so he is annoyed and angry, and repeatedly makes him stumble and find trouble.

He knew that he couldn't escape this catastrophe today.

But at this moment, a faint voice sounded:

"He is not wrong, how can he admit his mistake?"

Xiahou Chun's eyes were flat, "What's more, forcibly marrying a people's daughter in this public is a big crime of killing your head!" ”

Wang Jin looked up in abruptness.

Lord Zhou's face sank, and Huo Ran turned his head to look at the man.

Someone dares to spoil his good deeds, it's just impatient.

He looked around and said sharply: "This person has trespassed into the mansion with bad intentions, why don't you take it down quickly?" ”

Xiahou Chun glanced at the other party with a smile, "Take me down?" You don't regret it. ”

That week's heart suddenly sudden, could it be that he couldn't do anything?

Immediately shouted at a soldier: "Where is this person from? ”

The soldier was already nervous, and after this explosion, he almost blurted out and replied:

"There's no origin."

Lord Zhou's face softened, and then he said angrily: "Since it is Diao Min, why don't you drive him away?" ”

The soldier choked.

Unexpectedly, Lord Zhou couldn't wait, and waved his hand impatiently: "Beat away with a stick, and then send it to the yamen of the criminal department, and put it in prison." ”

"Wait!!"

A loud shout came from inside the house.

Xiahou Chun chuckled, "It's here." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a rush of footsteps.

I saw a middle-aged man with a long beard who was nearly forty years old walking out of the Assassin's Mansion.

He has a broad forehead and a high nose, thick and narrow lips, but his body is slightly thin, and there is gloom and irritability between his eyebrows.

But after seeing Xiahou Chun, he was overjoyed and a little flattered.

"Your Excellency!" That Lord Zhou changed color and bowed in a panic.

However, the middle-aged man didn't bother to pay attention to this Lord Zhou, and after waving his hand hurriedly, he ran to Xiahou Chun, leaned over and said:

"Weichen Song Jing meets His Royal Highness the Prince!"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" Lord Zhou's body shook when he heard this.

With a pop, he was directly paralyzed to the ground in fright.

Finished.
