Chang'an City of Northern Qin

"A bunch of rubbish, not even a single person can be found!" The former Empress Min, now the Empress Dowager Min was furious in Yanshou Palace, and after discovering that Princess Mingyue was missing a few days ago, Empress Dowager Min was full of shock.

"Queen Mother, the slave has carefully investigated, and there is no record of Princess Mingyue's entry and exit in the imperial city. Later, the servants led people to search around the palace, and found a small hole behind the Hanshan Palace, which was covered with weeds and could lead directly to the outer city. ”

Empress Dowager Min frowned: "You mean, Mingyue ran away from the palace?" ”

"Most likely, Princess Mingyue may be playful for a while, maybe she will return to the palace in a short time?" At this time, Empress Dowager Min's personal female officer was relieved.

"I don't care about Yuan Shu, now Yuan Shan is the governor of the Chinese and foreign military, I see that Yu Wenzhi under him also has a lot of ability, wouldn't it be better if he could win it over, and give Mingyue Xu to Yu Wenzhi, which can not only make Yuwen Zhi our help, but also take advantage of the situation to suppress Yuan Shan, Yuan Shan has only been in Beijing for a few days, and he acts so domineeringly, and he doesn't put our orphans and widows in his eyes at all." Empress Dowager Min said indignantly: "Go out of the imperial city to find it, don't make a noise." ”

In the study of the Min Mansion, Min Guan sat at the table, and the two Min brothers were standing beside them.

"Father, why is Yuan Shan acting so perversely, it's only been a few days. On the grounds of greed for military salaries, he replaced many of our confidant generals. In the study, Min Shiyuan saw Min Guan frowning, and couldn't help but say angrily.

Min Guan ignored Min Shiyuan, but kept flipping through the folds presented.

"Father, we should fight back." Before Min Shiyuan could speak, Min Shichuan said hurriedly.

With a snap, Min Guan threw the pen on the table and said sharply: "Why are you two brothers so breathless, Yuan Shan was ordered to assist the government, and he lived in Hebei for a long time. It's normal for him to have some movements when he first enters the Beijing Division, but if he doesn't move as a father, he will feel strange. ”

But seeing that the two were puzzled, Min Guan said without raising his head: "He is the emperor's uncle today, and now he is in charge of all the internal and external military, we will make a little concession in terms of military power, as long as the Huaibei Army, the Dongchuan Army, the Qingzhou Army, and General An's headquarters are under our control." Now it is the Changqing horse who is responsible for guarding the defense of the Jingshi, and no matter how long the hand of the king of Pengcheng is, he can't reach in. It's Yuwenshu's grandson, who hasn't been in the office for a long time, and now he actually follows Yuanshan's side, but his father didn't expect it. ”

"Why is Yuwen so afraid? Why did my father care so much about this person? Min Shichuan asked anxiously.

"You are a waste, not to mention that Yuwen Zhi has some ability, his grandfather Dingbian has a huge influence in the army, his father Yuwen Tui, and now he is General Long Xiang, holding the military power of Yongsi and Yongsi, and now Yuwen's family is falling to Yuanshan, which also makes his father quite a headache." Min Guan said, bowed his head and said silently, and then sighed: "I knew this was the case, why bother Wei Zhi in the first place." ”

In Jiankang in Southern Qi, Yuan Shu did not live in the post house with Zhao Youzhi, but opened a room in Jiankang's largest restaurant inn "Drunken Jiangnan".

Zhao Youzhi was worried about her comfort, so he wanted to arrange a guard for her, but Yuan Shu just said: "Uncle Zhao is too high-profile, and now I am just your scholar, so it will make others suspicious." ”

Zhao Youzhi couldn't resist her, so he had to go with her.

"Aunt Zhao, why didn't Uncle Zhao go to Wei Ran yet?" In the room, Yuan Shu held her chin with her hands, slammed on the table, looked at the flickering candles, and muttered.

"Don't worry, princess, now Lord Zhao is still waiting for the Emperor of Nanqi to summon her, if you go to see Wei Ran privately, I am afraid that someone will give someone a handle." Aunt Zhao looked at Yuan Shu in front of her, a doting look appeared on her face, and then she said gloomily: "Wei Shizi has been named the prince of Guangling County, and is in charge of the East Palace Guards, so favorable, could it be that the matter is true?" ”

Hearing this, Yuan Shu's eyes also dimmed: "I heard that Wei Ran likes to drink in the south of the Yangtze River here, so he chose to stay here." But I didn't hear from him for two days. Then Yuan Shu got up, walked to the window, opened the window slightly, and looked at the main street of Jiankang City. I couldn't help but say: "Thinking about it these days, Yuan Zhi is also my brother, if Wei Ran and Yuan Zhi meet each other one day, thinking of this makes me sad." ”

"Since Her Royal Highness the Princess is so worried, why don't we stay for a few days and return with Lord Zhao," Aunt Zhao said seriously

"Ahh Princess Yuanshu turned her head in surprise when she heard this, but when she saw the faint smile on Aunt Zhao's face, she couldn't help blushing: "Auntie, you are making fun of me again." ”

"Auntie, let's go to Jiankang Night Market in the evening, I haven't visited it yet." Yuan Shu walked back to the table, continued to put her hands on her cheeks, and looked at Aunt Zhao softly.

Aunt Zhao's heart softened: "I heard that Jiankang is safe at night in the past two days, let's go out for a walk today, the princess wants to change into men's clothes?" ”

Yuan Shu shook her head: "Just wear a gauze hat."

The night of Jiankang is particularly lively, because Jiangnan scholars are more romantic, and people who can be seen everywhere are singing poems, Yuan Shu is not interested in this, but he has a soft spot for Jiangnan snacks.

Eat and take a look along the way, so you are not satisfied. Suddenly, a ring attracted Yuan Shu's attention, because Yuan Shu, the person on the stage, had seen it, and it was a close attendant who followed Su Wei's side.

"You southerners set up a ring here, inviting me and other northerners to fight, and now that Pei is here, you southern warriors are so vulnerable." Pei Datong laughed loudly: "Audience, if no one responds, then Pei Mouke will leave, presumably even after many years, this is a laughing stock." ”

Yuan Shu quietly looked at the surrounding southern scholars, all indignant, but no one came to power, Yuan Shu sighed slightly, and whispered to Aunt Zhao: "No wonder the Southern Dynasty that Dingnan Hou has suppressed by his own strength is out of breath, and he will not dare to invade the north from now on, and the southern scholars will only take advantage of their tongues." ”

At this moment, a woman not far from Yuan Shu said, "Master Heng, I still hope you will make a move." ”

The surname Heng made Yuan Shu can't help but look back, but she saw a woman not far away, gorgeously dressed, with an extraordinary bearing, surrounded by guards, and her identity must be extraordinary. As if looking at Yuan Shu's gaze, I saw that the woman also looked at Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu saw those eyes clearly, clear and clear, as bright as stars, and couldn't help but say to Aunt Zhao: "The young lady who doesn't know which family it is, is very good-looking." ”

Aunt Zhao glanced back, and then couldn't help but say, "If you want to compare with the princess, you won't let it go too far." ”

Yuan Shu pouted lightly after hearing this, and Aunt Zhao immediately said, "But it's still slightly inferior." ”

Won-sook chuckled.

"In Xia Hengxuan, please give advice to the warriors of Northern Qin."

"It turned out to be the son of the Heng family, Pei Mou understood."

Then Heng Xuan raised his sword and went to Pei Datong, Pei Datong held a double hammer and fought with Heng Xuan, but Heng Xuan was young after all, and he was shocked by Pei Datong to fly the long sword in his hand after a while. Heng Xuan stood on the stage with a blank face.

"There are no others, no one Pei can leave, and your ring should be dismantled quickly, the province is embarrassed."

Wei Ran silently watched Pei Datong in the crowd, and then Weber said, "Isn't the young master going up?" Heng Gongzi's martial arts are not bad, but it's a pity that he is too young, and the weapons in his hands have suffered a loss, Pei Datong has brute strength, the moves are simple and rude, and the young master can retreat from the enemy with a spear. ”

Wei Ran glanced at Weber in surprise, and Weber said calmly: "In the past, Master Hou had specialized in studying all kinds of weapons, so the minions naturally knew. Now the two countries will talk soon, and if Pei Datong is allowed to go away today, he will definitely fall into the momentum of the Southern Qi Dynasty. The young master went out to defeat Pei Datong at this time, which can be regarded as a great achievement. ”

Wei Ran listened and pondered for a moment. Then he jumped into the ring, took out a spear from the weapon rack, and pointed it at Pei Datong from afar.

"Whoever comes, report the name." Pei Datong drank.

"Wei Ran."

"It turned out to be you, so should I call you Dingnan Hou Shizi, or Guangling County Duke?" Pei Datong said with a smile.

"My father was killed by the thief Min Guan, I know you, Min Guan's eagle dog, you still call me the prince of Guangling County" Wei Ran drank,

Then Wei Ran attacked Pei Datong with a gun, the spear was sharp, Pei Datong was shocked, and hurriedly made the hammer resist, and then Wei Ran shook his mouth, a good brute force, but Pei Datong also took a few steps back, and the secret road was dangerous.

Then Pei Datong smashed with a hammer, Wei Ran did not make a hard connection, dodged sideways, and then the spear swept out, Pei Datong had no choice but to resist with a double hammer, Wei Ran turned to attack, the tip of the spear went straight to Pei Datong's door like a snake, Pei Datong closed his eyes and waited for death. Then he slowly opened his eyes and found that Wei Ran's spear was standing on his forehead.

Pei Datong smiled bitterly: "Wei Shizi really deserves his reputation. Then jumped out of the ring and was about to leave, when he suddenly heard the laughter of the southern scholars around him, Pei Datong said angrily: "You southerners can only use their tongues, and in the end, it is not up to the former northerners to support you." ”

Suddenly, the audience was silent, Wei Ran was silent, dropped the spear, and turned to leave.

The gorgeous woman said to the people around her: "This person is Wei Ran, the newly crowned prince of Guangling County, who is newly crowned by his father?" ”

Left and right whispered: "Her Royal Highness Princess, it is Wei Ran." ”

Princess Nanqi looked at Wei Ran and muttered, "This is the hero in my mind." ”

At this time, the scholars of the Southern Dynasty were furious, and they were still talking about Pei Datong who was far away.

In the push, he accidentally knocked off Yuan Shu's yarn hat in the crowd, and Yuan Shu was about to be pushed to the ground, at this moment, Yuan Shu felt that he was being held by someone, and then pulled out of the crowd.

Yuan Shu suddenly looked up and found that it was Wei Ran.

Wei Ran saw Yuan Shu's beautiful face at this moment, and was vaguely familiar, so he asked, "This young lady, have we ever met?" ”

But then Wei Ran shook his head: "It's abrupt, I'm new to the south, there shouldn't be an old man,"

Yuan Shu felt that the deer was colliding with each other at this time, and her heart was in turmoil, and she said tremblingly: "Thank you Jungong."

Then he snatched the yarn hat he had just picked up in Weber's hand, pulled Aunt Zhao, who had finally squeezed out of the crowd, and left in a hurry.

Wei Ran looked at Yuan Shu's distant back, and always felt familiar, but he couldn't remember it clearly.
