Chapter 33: White Sleeve Moves
After leaving the Kyoto Road, the speed of the mission immediately became faster, and there was no longer a distant disdain from the generals of the garrison division along the way, and the members of the mission, including the officials of the Supervision Yuan, seemed much more relaxed.
At this time, it is the season of spring and March, and the further north you go, the stronger the spring color becomes, which is really a bit wonderful.
Along the way, all the counties have local government yamen reception, all know that this mission is an envoy to the Northern Qi Dynasty, naturally no state official dares to slack off, not to mention that the main envoy of the mission is a well-known Xiao Fan in Beijing, so the reception of officials from all over the country is even more attentive, although they dare not delay the mission travel schedule, but everywhere, there is always a feast, Mei Jiao'e to accompany him, and the banquet is constantly patting Fan Xian's ass.
At this time, Fan Xian knew that his reputation in Qingguo was so loud, and he couldn't help but be a little fluttering, and the banquet at the beginning was actually a refusal. It's just that I've been there more times, and I'm tired of it. And it was very troublesome to repeat my vow not to write poetry again every time.
Wang Qinian likes to go, because the singers at the banquet dance in light yarn, which is very entertaining, and everywhere he goes, his parents will always extravagantly arrange for local red-card girls to accompany them.
However, this arrangement could not attract Fan Xian, because there was a girl in the mission that even the Emperor of Northern Qi could never forget, the most popular female manager in Kyoto.
So gradually, Fan Xian no longer went to the banquet easily, but just picked up some high-ranking officials who had some old friendships with his father, and said a few words, and more often stayed at the mission station, on the one hand, he guarded Sean nearby, and on the other hand, he could stay in the carriage of the manager for a while.
Pinching his fingers, it has been more than half a month since he left Kyoto, and in the past half a month, on the road, Fan Xian has spent most of his time on the manager's car. That's right, a large group of old men, I am tired of listening to a lot of funny cross talk, where is it cool to chat with a pretty woman in the car?
The manager carefully peeled the orange peel, and then carefully removed the white tendons before sending the orange flesh into Fan Xian's lips.
Fan Xian is the largest in the mission, and the officials of the Supervision Yuan are also only obedient, and Huwei is even more loyal, and he is not allowed to do anything, so naturally no one dares to say anything.
But when Fan Xian closed his eyes and slowly chewed the orange flesh, he somehow thought of his sister, when he was in Kyoto, Ruoruo often served himself like this and ate fruits, and then naturally thought of his wife Wan'er who stayed at home. His eyes were slightly open, and he secretly looked at the manager who was concentrating on processing oranges through the small slit in his eyes, but there was a trace of inappropriateness in his heart.
In fact, during this journey, he and the manager did not do anything. Just a few small talks. Eat some fruit to pass the time of boredom, and even the arrangements after going to Beijing in the Northern Qi Kingdom are rarely mentioned...... Of course, there are people who rub their tired bodies occasionally. There are occasional small hands, and occasionally hugging the window to look at the scenery.
"What are you thinking?" Seeing Fan Xian in a daze, the manager smiled sweetly and said, these days of getting along, all she saw in front of her was Fan Xian's gentle and delicate side, and she had faintly forgotten the terrifying scene of the prison bullying the weak girl, the girl's family seemed to like the feeling of chatting in this carriage, and deep down she faintly hoped that this journey would not end.
"I'm thinking...... You've been doing well these days, and the richness of this body is gradually coming back. Fan Xian laughed and said, "When I first left Beijing, I touched this body...... My hands hurt. ”
The manager blushed slightly and said, "Then don't touch it." ”
Fan Xian smiled and took her hand. Grabbing her wrists, he took her into his arms, his palms slowly caressed her body, and whispered, "You don't like it?"
"My life is miserable, I was bullied by you, I was addicted to your medicine on the flower boat, I was broken by you in the prison, and now I can't escape your clutches in this car......" The manager said like this, but the whole thing was in Fan Xian's arms, feeling that the arms of this young man were really warm, and he didn't want to leave, feeling Fan Xian's hands moving on his buttocks through his clothes, his heartbeat was slightly chaotic, his lips opened slightly, and he blew into Fan Xian's ears.
Fan Xian's ears were hot and itchy, and his palms were subconsciously heavier.
The manager called softly, his voice was like silk, and he whispered slightly in his ear and said quietly: "If you want me, there is no good ending to go to Beijing anyway." ”
......
After a moment, Fan Xian jumped off the horse with a smile, but there was a hint of weirdness in the smile on his face.
The poisonous and chronic poison in the body of the manager has already been investigated and understood by Fan Xian these days, and it seems that it was planted by the Supervision Institute in advance.
Fan Xian had seen this poison in the book left by Teacher Fei, but he had never seen an example, this poison would be slowly released in the woman's body, and then transmitted to the man through copulation. As long as the Northern Qi Emperor and Si Lili had a spring breeze, they could be infected with this toxin, and the symptoms of the attack were extremely similar to ordinary poplar disease.
No wonder Chen Pingping is so serious, it turns out that the red sleeve move is not a copy of Xi Shi into Wu, but a poisonous plan.
This poison is not incurable, but it can effectively weaken the opponent's body and spirit. Just imagine, if the Emperor of the Northern Qi Dynasty really favored Si Lili and had fun every night, he was afraid that he would soon become seriously ill, and with the current situation of the confrontation between the Northern Qi Dynasty and the Emperor Party, once the young emperor was seriously ill, he was afraid that the Northern Qi Dynasty would fall into chaos again.
Fan Xian sighed, Si Lili knew that there was poison in his body, but he thought that it was just a means for the Supervision Institute to control himself, but he didn't know that it could be transmitted to the man who was happy with her.
What he was a little uncomfortable about was that Chen Pingping didn't tell himself the secret of this matter, if it wasn't for the fact that he felt a little strange when he was intimate with the manager, he would definitely not find out, of course, even if he was infected with this poison, he could be cured immediately, but this feeling of being concealed was still not good.
"Red-sleeved moves?" he sat in his carriage and smiled bitterly, "It turned out to be white-sleeved tricks, summoning spirits." ”
He knew that compared with Chen Pingping, Fei Jie, and even Sean in the carriage behind him, his methods were still not vicious enough, and his mind was still not cold enough - Si Lili was just a chess piece, a chess piece that would be discarded at any time, but he didn't know what Chen Pingping promised her, so that she could willingly be a chess piece covered in a black cloth.
But what really shocked Fan Xian was another thing, which was also the real reason why Fan Xian and the manager had been in the spring breeze for more than ten days, but nothing really happened.
The manager is still **.
――――――
The mission had reached the northern border of Gyeongguk, and in front of it was Cangzhou, the last big city in the north of Gyeongguk. Looking at the city from afar, Fan Xian squinted slightly, and found that the sky had become a little dark, the north wind was strong, and the spring was blown away, and the sky was covered with dark clouds, which was really unpleasant weather.
After the last time the state army in charge of escorting came to salute, they began to turn back, leaving only the convoy of the envoy himself, although the convoy was extremely long, it still looked a little small and pitiful in the wasteland outside Cangzhou City.
"How long will it take to get out of Cangzhou and then to the border?" Fan Xian squinted, looking at the sky in the north.
Wang Qinian replied respectfully: "This time I am walking around the big lake, so it will be farther away, at least twenty days." ”
Fan Xian frowned and said, "The real danger should be in these twenty days." He tilted his head slightly, glanced at the carriage that had been quiet, and asked, "How is Sean doing now?"
"The adults injected him with a large dose of poison every day, and it is estimated that he was working hard to force the poison, so he has been very quiet, and since he got up a few days, he has become silent, as if he is thinking about something. ”
"Be careful. Fan Xian snorted, as if he could smell the smell of blood in the carriage getting heavier and heavier.
"Yes. Wang Qinian asked: "The state army has retreated, the Cangzhou army is not very relieved, and the adults also know that the last time the manager returned to Beijing." ”
Fan Xian smiled and said: "Don't be afraid, after Cangzhou, I am the most at ease in terms of escort, and I am only worried about the problems within the mission." ”
As his words fell, a group of cavalry, numbering about five hundred, appeared on the low hills far away on the edge of the wasteland, all of them covered in black armor, and in the dim sunlight, they exuded a cold and clear murderous aura.
Wang Qinian said with a smile: "It turns out that the black rider is here, so naturally you don't have to worry about anything." ”
......
A gust of wind blew, blowing the gravel on the ground slowly, and Wang Qinian and Fan Xian were ready to get in the car and go in the direction of Cangzhou City. Fan Xian suddenly paused, turned around slowly, and found that the manager had already gotten out of the carriage, standing on the side of the car, looking at him with a very confused gaze.
"Call someone to add a piece of clothing to Miss Si, the farther north you go, the colder it gets, this spring is really late. Fan Xian seemed to say calmly, but his heart trembled slightly, he rarely got into the carriage of his boss these days.
Wang Qinian glanced at Fan Xian a little strangely, and beckoned his subordinates to do something. There were three handmaidens in the mission, which were originally used to serve Si Lili, the future woman of the Northern Qi Emperor, but Fan Xian had been staying in Si Li's car a few days ago, so these three baby girls could only drag behind the mission convoy, and after a while, the handmaidens came to Si Lili's side, added a crimson cloak to her, and persuaded the girl to go back to the carriage to rest.
The manager let them tie the cloak to him, but he didn't go back to the carriage, just looked at Fan Xian quietly, as if he wanted to see something on Fan Xian's face.
The black cavalry in the distance, the weak woman in the crimson cloak nearby, and the pale white sun hanging obliquely in the sky, this is a very beautiful, but very powerless picture.
