seventy-seven
Chun Yudang and his party stopped on the road, and it took them more than a month to reach Pengcheng County. After arriving at the gate of Pengcheng County, he was greeted by a man dressed in green with a jade face, dressed as a scholar, looking soft and weak.
This man is the ninth prince of Pengcheng County, King Han - Chun Yuxuan.
Behind Chun Yuxuan, there was also a man, who had a wide face and a fat body, and a beard on his chin, but he was wearing an official uniform and followed Chun Yuxuan out to greet him.
This person is the county guard of Pengcheng County, and was canonized by Chun Yuzheng himself. Since Chun Yuzheng established the Yongchang Dynasty, the county system has been implemented in the local area, and the county is the first level of local administrative division. The governor of the county is the county guard, who is directly appointed by the central government, and the prime minister is the civil affairs of the county.
Chun Yudang came on horseback, followed by Yu Mao, and more than 100 people, including small servants, slaves, and guards.
Seeing Chun Yuxuan, Chun Yudang turned over from the horse, and Yu Mao also dismounted. Chun Yuxuan saluted and said, "Brother courtier, meet the prince!" ”
The man behind him also knelt down and saluted: "Pengcheng County guards unilaterally visit the prince. ”
"Get up!"
"Prince Xie!"
"Ninth brother, I haven't seen you for many years, don't come unharmed?" Chun Yudang greeted
"Prince Xie cares, everything is fine."
Chun Yudang nodded, "That's good!" Chun Yudang walked up to the side and asked, "Lord Shan, I don't know what the situation is in the city?" ”
Unilaterally bowed, "Prince Qiqi, since four months ago, it has been raining heavily in the city for four months in a row, day and night. The city is okay, after the best efforts of the lower officials and the Nine Princes, the flood in the city can be regarded as resisting. However, outside the city and in the counties under the jurisdiction of Pengcheng County, the flood is still raging, many people's homes have been washed away, and many people have been swept away by the flood. Xiaguan and the Nine Princes have done their best to move the victims outside the city to the city for protection, and they also give porridge and food relief to the Nine Princes everywhere in the city three times a day, but there are too many victims in the city, and Xiaguan and the Nine Emperors have almost exhausted their wealth, and they can't save all the refugees. ”
Chun Yudang nodded, "Okay, the situation in the city, Lone already knows." During this time, it has been hard for Lord Shan and the ninth brother. ”
Unilaterally bowed, "Since the lower official serves as the county guard of Pengcheng County, he wants to benefit the people of Pengcheng County." If the people are in trouble, the lower officials, as the parents of Pengcheng County, should do their best to save them. Therefore, the lower officials are for the people, and there is no such thing as hard work, and the prince is serious. ”
Chun Yu smiled and praised: "Lord Shan, he is really a good official who loves the people like a son, and the Yongchun Dynasty can have a good official like Lord Shan, which is not only the blessing of the court, but also the blessing of the people!" ”
"The prince is gracious! The prince has been tired all the way, and the lower officials have prepared a good post station for the prince, the prince please! As he spoke, he stepped aside and made a gesture of please.
When Chun Yu saw it, he walked in with everyone.
On the streets of Pengcheng County, there are homeless people everywhere, and the voices are all over the field. The city was full of starving corpses or homeless victims, dying old people, begging beggars.
Hua Che and Jiang Lingzhu walked on the streets of the victims everywhere, Hua Che couldn't help but sigh, "Life is short, and everything is impermanent!" ”
Jiang Lingzhu chuckled, "Don't be sad about spring and autumn!" Natural disasters and man-made disasters are not something that people can control, and in all dynasties, every time a disaster comes, some people will always die, which is the norm, so why be so sad? ”
"You can see it, huh?" Hua Che teased
"What if you can't see it? Even if we had the heart, we couldn't help them. ”
Jiang Lingzhu always speaks so calmly, plain as water.
The two joked with each other as they walked, and in the middle of their words, a woman in a cloth dress descended from the sky and stood in front of them, blocking their way.
The woman is 1.6 meters tall, thin, with dense freckles on her face, covered with fat powder, with public facial features, and a high ponytail tied in her hair, which is behind her.
The woman's name is Qiu Hong, and she is Qiu Zhen's younger sister. Qiu Zhen and Qiu Hong were originally bandits who robbed money for a living in Longxi. Later, Chun Yuxu was stationed in Longxi and used a trick to serve the lair of this gang of bandits. Qiu Zhen's martial arts are strong, he loves money and beauty, although his martial arts are not at the top, but he has also broken through the ten grades, above the ten grades, and his sister Qiu Hong is slightly inferior to Qiu Zhen's martial arts, and his martial arts have just reached the ninth grade, but he is also a rare master in the rivers and lakes. Chun Yu Xu Nian was strong in the martial arts of the two brothers and sisters, and they could be used in the future, so he let them go. Since then, the siblings have been recruiting to strengthen themselves. And they also started a business with Chun Yuxu.
Qiu Hong was fascinated by Jiang Lingzhu's beauty at the first glance of him. Qiu Hong has been in the rivers and lakes for many years, she has heard of Leng Lanyan's beauty, and she has been described as colorful, but she has never seen it with her own eyes. But she only heard the description, and she also felt that Leng Lanyan's appearance was amazing, and the beauty was incomprehensible. She always thought that it was difficult for anyone in this world to match Leng Lanyan's beauty, but today, the man in front of her, he is like a landscape ink painting depicted in the clouds. His face charms all beings, if it is compared to Leng Lanyan, it is even better.
The corners of Qiu Hong's mouth raised a wicked smile, and she said in a flirtatious tone: "Where are the two sons going?" ”
When she was a bandit, Qiu Shu doted on Qiu Hong and used her lawlessness. But Qiu Hong is a person with an informal temperament, she speaks straightforwardly, and she is not soft in doing things, although she is strong in martial arts, but her brain is not bright, and she is easy to be deceived.
Hua Che chuckled, "Where do you want us to go, girl?" ”
Qiu Hong stretched out her hand, pointed at Jiang Lingzhu, her eyes deepened with a smile, and explained: "If the two sons are okay, why don't you let this son talk to the little girl?" ”
Hua Che saw it, laughed out loud, and quipped: "Ling Zhu, you are being taken by other girls." ”
Jiang Lingzhu snorted lightly, a gentle smile rose at the corner of his mouth, but his voice was still as plain as water, "Some things look enchanting, but the whole body is poisonous, for example, the other side of the flower!" ”
As soon as Hua Che heard it, he knew that he was using flowers as a metaphor for people, and he was talking about Leng Lanyan.
Jiang Lingzhu took two steps forward, smiling coquettishly, his voice was gentle, but his tone was cold and cold, without a trace of emotion, "Okay, then let's talk!" ”
Qiu Hong listened, and walked towards Jiang Lingzhu, just a few steps away from Jiang Lingzhu, Qiu Hong wanted to reach out and grab Jiang Lingzhu's sleeve, but Jiang Lingzhu flashed in an instant and arrived behind Qiu Hong. This Qiu Hong is not easy to bully, he performed light skills, jumped up and down a foot high, Jiang Lingzhu saw it, and flew up, and the two of them beckoned in the air. But Hua Che flew to the wall by the alley and sat on the wall to watch the play.
Hua Che knew that Jiang Lingzhu was a master of the ten grades and the most proud apprentice of the master, so he was very confident in Jiang Lingzhu. The two fought fiercely in the air, and between the two palms, they saw that all the plants around them were uprooted by the wind, and some were blown into ashes. As the two fought for a long time, even the wall where Hua Che was sitting was marked with a few finger prints and a few holes. Hua Che was helpless, afraid to sit down again, and fell down with the wall, so he could only fly down and stand on the ground.
has been able to fight with Ling Zhu for so long, this woman's martial arts are not weak! Hua Che analyzed in his heart.
After a long time, Jiang Lingzhu stood firmly on the ground, his eyes were glowing with coldness, and his whole body exuded a cold and murderous aura. But his face was still as plain as water.
Qiu Hong fell to the ground in embarrassment, only to see her clutching her chest, and a mouthful of blood gushed out. She glanced at Jiang Lingzhu standing on the ground with a calm face, and felt that his martial arts were higher than her own. Now that he is seriously injured, he still has a helper by his side, if he fights hard at this time, he will definitely suffer, so thirty-six strategies, go is the best policy.
Thinking of this, Qiu Hong performed light skills and left quickly. Before leaving, I left a sentence, your martial arts are good, but the person I Qiu Hong likes will not let go, you wait, I will come to you.
Seeing Qiu Hong leaving, Hua Che walked to Jiang Lingzhu's side. Hua Che said: "Let's go!" ”
Just after Hua Che said this, bright red blood flowed from the corners of Jiang Lingzhu's lips. Seeing this, Hua Che hurriedly supported him, and said worriedly, "Ling Zhu, what's wrong with you?" ”
Before Hua Che could say the second sentence, Jiang Lingzhu fainted on Hua Che. Hua Che had no choice but to beat Jiang Lingzhu horizontally and hold him on his body. Although Jiang Lingzhu is a man, his weak, sick body has no half of his body, and he is thinner than a woman, so Hua Che can easily pick him up.
Hua Che hugged him and turned to leave.
In King Jing's mansion, Mu Zhijun was reading a book in the study, and for a long time, a subordinate wearing cloth clothes walked to the door of Mu Zhijun's room and saluted, "Your Highness, people are here!" ”
"Stand down!"
"Yes!" The man saluted, and withdrew.
Mu Zhijun walked out of the study and walked towards Yu Yaorong's courtyard, and when he left, he glanced behind him twice, and made sure that no one was following him before leaving.
Yu Yaorong was sitting on the stone table in the courtyard, reading by the daylight in the courtyard, because of the investment in reading, even Mu Zhijun didn't know that he was here.
Mu Zhijun walked up to Yu Yaorong, "What are you looking at?" So fascinating? ”
Yu Yaorong, who realized it later, was startled and almost dropped the book on the ground. He looked up and saw Mu Zhijun, so he put the book on the stone table, got up and saluted: "Wife! ”
"Follow me!"
Mu Zhijun said, then turned around and left, Yu Yaorong had no choice but to put the book in his sleeve and leave with Mu Zhijun. After Yu Yaorong followed Mu Zhijun through several corridors, he came to a courtyard, this courtyard is Mu Zhijun's forbidden place, usually, except for the people who clean, no one is allowed to enter, let alone anyone approach.
After Yu Yaorong followed Mu Zhijun into the house in the courtyard, Yu Yaorong habitually closed the door of the house.
There was nothing in the room except a bed, a table, a locked wardrobe, and a painting.
Yu Yaorong glanced at the painting curiously, he didn't know the man on the painting, but there was a poem on the painting.
Nianzi, knowing each other, falling in love and lovesickness. Rely on each other and remember each other. Hold each other in the morning and twilight, support each other's white heads, and stay together for a lifetime.
Lingxi, double flowers, double leaves and double branches, bibious and double wings. Double lotus dew, double mandarin duck water, double drunk warm curtain.
Mu Zhijun is in a rare good mood today, she smiled gently, but her eyes were full of sadness.
"Do you know why this is my forbidden land?" Mu Zhijun's tone became soft, and the high-pitched, icy and cold tone was gone, replaced by endless warmth. This sentence interrupted Yu Yaorong's curious heart, and he came back to his senses and listened carefully to Mu Zhijun's words.
Yu Yaorong hadn't seen such a tender Mu Zhijun for a long time, and in his image, Mu Zhijun should be dissolute and disdainful.
Yu Yaorong shook his head, and still responded meekly: "Yaorong doesn't know." ”
"The things here are all used by my father Lingxi when he was alive, and my father didn't like the luxurious rooms and the gaudy decorations. However, my father is very beautiful, so I don't need to decorate him with worldly objects, and in my eyes, he is also a rare beauty. It's a pity that my father left early, and when I was twelve years old, he was ordered to be executed by his mother......" Mu Zhijun said this, closing his eyes, his hands were clenched into fists, as if telling the anger in his heart.
Yu Yaorong saw it, and felt sorry for Mu Zhijun. After all, Mu Zhijun is his husband and his beloved, even if Mu Zhijun treats him badly, Yu Yaorong's friendship with Mu Zhijun is stronger than Jin. He persuaded softly: "Don't be sad for your wife, my father is in the spirit of heaven, and he will be sad when he sees his wife like this." ”
Mu Zhijun was in a much better mood when she heard the persuasion, she sighed lightly and stabilized her emotions, "Everything in this house was left by my father when he was alive. Actually, these things should have been burned, but I begged the mother, so I kept some, but most of them were still burned. But fortunately, I left a portrait of my father in this room, so it became a forbidden place. ”
Mu Zhijun's eyes glanced out of the window twice and found that there was movement. So, the corners of her mouth raised an arc, and the gentleness of Fang Cai disappeared, replaced by such an unfathomable smile.
Mu Zhijun took out two maps from his sleeve, which were still the two stolen before. chuckled: "Yaorong, I have something important to go out, it may be a long time, you put this map away, remember, don't let anyone know." When I come back, you can return the map to me. ”
Yu Yaorong was extremely happy when he saw that Mu Zhijun trusted him so much, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will protect these two maps." ”
Mu Zhijun put his head to Yu Yaorong's ear and said softly: "These two maps are very important, don't lose them." As he spoke, he licked Yu Yaorong's earlobe, and Mu Yaorong only felt that the earlobe was wet and soft.
Every time Mu Zhijun teased Yu Yaorong, Yu Yaorong was a little overwhelmed, and his face turned red unconsciously. Mu Zhijun also kissed Yu Yaorong's neck, Yu Yaorong's neck was as white as porcelain, and her skin was smooth and delicate, Mu Zhijun only kissed it, and she couldn't help but want to kiss more, so she kissed it cheekily again. This made Yu Yaorong even more embarrassed, he gasped softly, and said softly: "Wife! ”
Mu Zhijun's head left Yu Yaorong's neck, and she took two steps back, "I won't tease you, Yaorong, you go back first." ”
Yu Yaorong saluted, "Yaorong retires!" ”
When he finished speaking, he departed.
After Yu Yaorong walked away and there was no movement outside the window, Mu Zhijun said coldly, "Come out!" ”
A person walked out from behind the bed, and the man walked in front of Mu Zhijun, and only by the light outside the window could he see the man's face clearly. It was a face like a peach blossom, and the owner of that face was Nangong Yiqing.
Nangong Yiqing saluted, "Your Highness! ”
Mu Zhijun said unhappily: "You are really bold, and you dare to break into the forbidden land." ”
Nangong Yiqing explained with a smile: "Yiqing stole into His Highness's forbidden land with the consent of His Highness. ”
Mu Zhijun was interested, "Oh? "What do you mean?" ”
"Your Highness has known that I am in this room for a long time, but Your Highness has not exposed me for a long time, which means that Your Highness has allowed me to eavesdrop."
Mu Zhijun snorted lightly, "Since you heard it, then tell me, what do I mean by doing this?" ”
Nangong Yiqing bowed, "Your Highness is resourceful, Yiqing doesn't dare to say anything!" ”
"Say, I don't blame you!"
Nangong Yiqing knew in her heart that Mu Zhijun was testing him, testing what kind of person he was, and testing whether he would betray her.
Nangong Yiqing couldn't bear to deceive Mu Zhijun, of course, he also knew that he couldn't deceive Mu Zhijun, so he said frankly: "Your Highness's move, do what you need, and lead the fish to the bait." ”
"Go on!"
"Your Highness, there have been spies in the house for a long time, and when you and the colt came to the room, the spies had not yet come, so you pulled the colt and said a few digressions. After the spy came, you acted in a scene, and I believe that the latter words are for the spy to hear, you want to lure out the spy through the horse, and then you will plan and catch the people behind the scenes. ”
Mu Zhijun nodded and praised: "Smart! Yiqing, you said that you are so smart, if you stay in my Jingwang Mansion all the time, it is really worrying! ”
Nangong Yiqing sighed lightly, a layer of sentimentality flashed in his eyes, and he explained seriously: "Your Highness, Yiqing's heart has always been tied to His Highness, and Yiqing really won't betray you." Please trust Yiqing, okay? ”
Mu Zhijun approached him, he didn't hide or avoid, Mu Zhijun leaned into his ear and chuckled: "Yes, although your heart is placed on me, your body is given to others." ”
After hearing this, Nangong Yiqing was not in a hurry, smiled charmingly, and teased: "Your Highness is jealous? ”
"Jealous?" Mu Zhijun chuckled, "I, Mu Zhijun, have been in the Fengyue place for many years, what kind of man has not seen it?" Am I going to be jealous of someone who has been played with so badly? Isn't it ridiculous? ”
Don't play to it?
Nangong Yiqing finally heard the point, he panicked, and his composure was gone. He knew that Mu Zhijun knew about him and Zeng Sen. He hurriedly defended: "Your Highness, it's not what you think, Your Highness, I didn't do it voluntarily. ”
"Not voluntary?" Mu Zhijun chuckled, "You are not voluntary to him, so who are you willing to him?" ”
Nangong Yiqing's whole body trembled, and she was stunned for a moment before she lowered her voice and said very softly: "I, I, to Your Highness...... Be...... It's voluntary......" Nangong Yiqing's voice became smaller and smaller, so small that she couldn't hear the last four words clearly.
Mu Zhijun licked under his earlobe, her voice was a little lustful, and she said in a low voice: "Okay, I will fulfill you!" ”
Mu Zhijun hugged Nangong Yiqing as she spoke, she put him on the bed and pressed Nangong Yiqing under her. Nangong Yiqing didn't struggle, just lay meekly under him, Mu Zhijun leaned into Nangong Yiqing's ear, and said angrily: "Do you want to kill Zeng Sen?" ”
"Yes!" Nangong Yiqing didn't even think about it, and blurted out with hatred.
Mu Zhijun sighed lightly, and said in a strange manner: "But now, I am asking for your body, do you also want to kill me together?" ”
Nangong Yiqing couldn't help but smile bitterly, her Royal Highness was really suspicious, even the joy of making bed sheets was full of temptation. Nangong Yiqing smiled softly, "Your Highness wants Yiqing, and Yiqing will be His Highness's person all his life, and he will have no second thoughts about His Highness in the future." ”
"Then what do you mean, if I don't want your body today, you are not my person, and in the future, Bao Qi will kill me?"
Nangong Yiqing said firmly: "No, no matter whether His Highness wants Yiqing's body today, Yiqing is of the same mind as His Highness, and there will be no betrayal." ”
Mu Zhijun looked at Nangong Yiqing's eyes, and wanted to find a trace of deception in his eyes, but in the end, he found that his charming eyes were full of sincerity. After staring at each other for a moment, Mu Zhijun got down from Nangong Yiqing, she tidied up her clothes, and turned to leave.
Nangong Yiqing also stood up from the bed and shouted, "Your Highness! ”
Mu Zhijun stopped and turned his back to him, "What?" Anything else? ”
"Your Highness will believe me?" Nangong Yiqing asked
"I'll believe you."
Nangong Yiqing approached Mu Zhijun, he walked behind Mu Zhijun and hugged Mu Zhijun tightly from behind, "Your Highness, I know that I am not worthy of Your Highness now." My body is dirty, and it is reasonable for His Highness not to like me, but as long as Yiqing can stay in King Jing's Mansion and see His Highness every day, she will be content. ”
Nangong Yiqing's hand holding Mu Zhijun refused to let go, he was particularly greedy for the temperature on Mu Zhijun's body, greedy for everything about him. When he was in exile, Nangong Yiqing thought about Mu Zhijun in his heart, thinking about her face, thinking about her people, thinking about everything about her, and now that he is back, since he can touch it, he is even more reluctant to let go, because he is afraid that as soon as he lets go, Mu Zhijun will disappear again.
After a long silence, Mu Zhijun pulled his hand off his body, and Mu Zhijun took two steps forward before stopping, "Keep your body first, wait until I kill Zeng Sen, and then you will sacrifice your body in return, and it will not be too late." ”
After Mu Zhijun finished speaking, he left without looking back.
