Tick~~

The east was white, and a misty drizzle quietly fell on the roof in the late summer and early autumn of the tenth year of Xuanhong.

The night terror hall opened the oil-paper umbrella and covered the head of the person in its arms, and the fluffy birds and birds curled up in front of them, and everyone and the bird were sleeping soundly.

Last night, I drank with Ben Ben on the roof, practiced martial arts, and chatted.

He talked about his daily life in Honghe Town, from practicing martial arts three times a day, to going out alone to walk birds and fish, to hiding like wolves and tigers like big girls and little daughters-in-law, until he was eighteen years old.

After all, since he left Honghe Town on the third day of the first lunar month, after a dart, he returned to his hometown again, and what was waiting at home was no longer his father-in-law who raised him since childhood, but a letter and an old knife.

Dongfang Liren also said a lot of things when he was a child.

When the sisters were ignorant, they were taken by their mother to visit the night view of Wutong Street.

When she was reading and literate, she learned faster, while her sister was often punished by her father for copying books because she couldn't write well.

When she practiced martial arts, her sister rode in the dust, but she was clumsy and clumsy, and was punished by her father every day.

The two of them have a happy text and a martial arts temperament, which was the seed planted at that time, after all, the sisters are naturally strong people, and they want to learn what they are not good at, and what they already have is not so important.

When I grew up, Dongfang didn't talk about it. The death of the mother concubine, the death of the father, the elder brother regarded their sisters as enemies, and the elder sister forced the palace to usurp the throne and clean the court, etc., it is too heavy to say, she is the same as her sister, and she doesn't want to mention it again in the past.

The two chatted to the end, and unconsciously drank the wine in the pot.

Dongfang was drowsy and drunk, and leaned on the shoulder of Night Terror in a daze, and closed his eyes with a full sense of security.

Because it was not very comfortable to sleep on it, halfway through, the Night Terror Hall flattened Dongfang away from the person and half lay in his arms.

At this time, Dongfang Liren's cheek was against the right arm of the night terror, the upper body was leaning on his chest, and the fat head dragon with a bulging bag was stacked together under the action of gravity, and through the black fabric, he could still feel the warmth and fullness, and he could faintly see the unevenness at the top of the placket......

Last night, the black light was blind, and there was only moonlight, and the night terror hall had not seen anything special, and at this time, the sky gradually brightened, only to find that Ben Ben seemed to be wearing only a robe.

Night Terror Hall glanced down, thinking that it would be rude, and set his eyes on the far northwest, continuing to reminisce about the past.

After sitting for a while, Night Terror noticed that her clumsy ankles and shoes were stained with a drizzle, so he put his hand through the crook of his clumsy legs, picked her up gently, and tried to sit in his arms.

But as soon as his body moved, Dongfang Liren's eyelashes moved, and then he opened his eyes blankly, and the man's handsome and unparalleled face fell into his eyes......

？！

"Awake? It's raining, I'm ...... Hiss-"

The moment Dongfang left the person to wake up, he found that he was lying in the man's arms, and he raised his hand to pull out the saber on the waist of the Night Terror, and was held down by the Night Terror, so he twisted the waist eye of the Night Terror Hall:

"What have you done to this king?"

Night Terror Hall raised his hand and signaled: "I didn't do anything, Your Highness is drunk, I'm afraid that the rain will wet my shoes, so I'll cover you tightly." ”

“……”

Dongfang Liren thought about it for a while, and then remembered that he ran up to drink last night, and then he broke off, and he woke up with a headache......

What kind of broken wine is this......

Dongfang Liren looked down, and after making sure that the placket was not untied, the suspicion in his eyes was somewhat restrained, but immediately his expression was fierce:

"This king is not strong enough to drink, you won't send this king back to the room? Just sleep on the roof for a night, and dare to hold ......"

Night Terror Hall said solemnly: "Your Highness, don't get me wrong, last night I took the initiative to lean on my shoulder, I said to send you down, you still murdered me, what did you say, 'What's wrong with this king?' I won't dare to disturb you......"

？

Have it?

Dongfang Liren blinked, although she didn't remember it clearly, but according to what she knew about herself, it was not unusual for her to do this kind of thing after drinking too much......

"This king is drunk, and you still listen to this king?"

Dongfang Liren let go of his hand, got up from his arms, and patted his robe:

"For the sake of your rules, spare you this time, and don't make an example."

The night terrors were used to hearing it, and they didn't say much, so they picked up the bird who slept like a piglet, and sent Dongfang Liren downstairs with an umbrella......

Huangquan Town.

In the old wine shop, the proprietress who still has the charm is tidying up the tables and chairs in the window, and there are swordsmen passing by from time to time on the street outside the door, marching to the ferry of Yunmengze, chatting about the affairs of the rivers and lakes along the way:

"I heard that King Wu was arrested......"

"Wuzhou has changed, there was no one to support the façade before, and now that Guan Yujia is dead, two or three wealthy families have fallen, and it is estimated that they will be counted down in the twelve states in the future......"

"This is a good thing, now that the dragons of Wuzhou have no leader, if we go there to develop......"

"Come on, you, you may not even be able to score into the top three in Huangquan Town, and you still think of Wuzhou to fight for hegemony......"

"You look down on people a little, I have been practicing knives for ten years, and I dare not say that Huangquan Town, which is among the top three heroes of Yunze and has eight hundred people, if it is not ranked in the top three, this knife will be practiced in vain......"

……

Under the eaves of the wine store, Xuanyuan Tiangang sat on the steps, with a large basin in front of him, scraping fish scales with a knife.

Qiu Tianhe sat next to him and held hands, skillfully disemboweled, heard a few young people chatting, and said with a smile:

"This kid has a good skeleton, he is placed in Huangquan Town, and it is estimated that there is no problem in ranking in the top three."

Xuanyuan Tiangang lowered his head and did not raise his eyes, and said calmly:

"Old man Ke, who was at the wonton stall in front, had a quarrel with Liu Qiansheng decades ago and injured his left shoulder...... The old lady of the cloth shop at the entrance of the town, who used to be called 'Red Embroidery Knife' in the rivers and lakes, was not famous when she was young......"

“……”

Qiu Tianhe raised his eyes to look at the old man cooking wontons with a cigarette stick in his mouth in the distance, then looked at the small town, frowned and said:

"There are so many reclusive elders in this place?"

"Going out from the wharf, it is a thousand miles of cloud dreams, and the swordsmen of the rivers and lakes are full of ambition to go out of the mountain, and most of the first stops are here. After the ups and downs of a big dream, the last person who is still alive, if he does not return to his hometown, he will naturally live in seclusion in the place where the dream began, which is called a beginning and an end. Do you think the name 'Huangquan Town' was obtained casually? ”

Qiu Tianhe nodded thoughtfully, thought about it and asked:

"And how old can I be in the town?"

"In terms of martial arts, it's no problem to enter the top three; In terms of seniority, anyone who is older than you can just call your uncle and aunt, maybe people are in a good mood, and they can also point you to two sentences of knife skills. ”

Qiu Tianhe was not convinced:

"I'm in the capital, and I was beaten down by Cao Chitose with twelve knives in a row, and I was able to break through under the eight big kui, and I also have a bit of status in the rivers and lakes, how can I be like a wild boy who just came out of the rivers and lakes."

"You are still wandering the rivers and lakes, but you are an idiot who has not seen through the red dust; When you see it through that day, you feel that practicing knives is not as interesting as talking to the big girl and the little daughter-in-law, so that you can be a serious child and consider yourself an elder, and when you are in a state of mind, your martial arts insights will naturally be able to go to the next level. ”

"I've always thought that being with a big girl and a little daughter-in-law is more interesting than practicing knives. The Sister Meng who chased me before and cut it knows? The six doors and one flower used to be called Tianhe now, but I am closer......"

"Oh?"

……

The proprietress of the wine shop, seeing that the more the two of them talked, the more outrageous it became, perhaps because she was afraid that the unscrupulous Qiu Tianhe would bring the husband badly, she coughed lightly twice and reminded:

"Ahem—"

Seeing this, Qiu Tianhe's smiling expression was closed, he sat up straight, regained his old and dignified appearance, and looked at the lakeside in the distance:

"Alas~ This is indeed a good place to retire. This time I went to Junshantai, if I can win, I will realize the dream of the rivers and lakes, if I don't win, I am afraid that it will not be my turn to fight for the sword leader in the future. When the fight is over, I will also come here to live in seclusion, and see if I can accept a good apprentice......"

Xuanyuan Tiangang paused to scrape the fish scales and reminded:

"Generally speaking, people who say 'retire after fighting' will not be able to come back alive."

Qiu Tianhe dropped the fish and wiped his hands, got up and hung the saber on his waist:

"Can't you say something auspicious?"

"I can't say I wish you a victory and hack my dad to death on the stage. If you are lucky, you should change people. ”

“……”

Qiu Tianhe opened his mouth, thinking that it was such a reason, and after saying goodbye, he led the horse alone and walked to the dock, and walked not far away and stopped a few young people who had just passed:

"How many little brothers are also going to Junshantai?"

"Exactly. Your Excellency ......"

"Go and see the excitement, the same way. This little brother has a good skeleton, and the knife is not bad, I don't know where the teacher is? ”

"Seniors have won awards. Family knife technique, just practice casually, seniors also use knives? ”

"It's also a casual practice. What do you think are the chances of Qiu Tianhe challenging Xuanyuan Lao'er this time? ”

"The odds? What's the odds? Aren't they all gambling heroes who can resist a few knives......"

“……”

Jianyang City, Wu Wangfu.

Autumn is about to begin, and the drizzle is several days, although it is not big, but the city is full of rain and fog, as if the heaven and earth are dyed with a touch of sadness.

As the palace of the prince of Great Wei, the structure of King Wu's mansion is a miniature version of the imperial city, with thousands of houses, rockeries, pavilions and lakes, both the scenery and the scale are unique.

In the afternoon, nearly 1,000 forbidden troops patrolled around the palace.

In the main hall of the palace, the six important ministers from the capital gathered together to discuss the handling of the fiefdom industry and the children of the clan.

King Wu fled in a hurry with his own soldiers, and the dozen boxes of precious artifacts he took away were not worth mentioning compared to King Wu's decades of precipitation.

In the large warehouse behind the palace, there are a lot of large treasures, copper tripods, furniture, jade, etc., and there are some calligraphy, paintings, and texts, neatly placed on both sides of the large warehouse, adding up to probably no less than a thousand.

The Queen Mother was dressed in a crimson home dress, dressed as a wealthy lady, holding a small fan in her hand, walking slowly in the treasure house, as if shopping, and when she saw something pleasing to the eye, she said:

"This chaise longue is very beautiful, I will move it to the ship and send it to the main palace house later......"

Hongyu took a small notebook and carefully recorded the things that the Queen Mother looked at in the back, so that she could greet the six courtiers later.

King Wu's private property, it stands to reason that it should be handed over to the treasury and disposed of according to the law, and it is definitely not legal to fill the private pocket for corruption, but the queen mother will take one or two pieces in her hand, and there will definitely be no courtiers who will admit death and refuse to give it.

However, after following for a while, Hongyu still hesitated a little, and looked at the small book full of books:

"Mother, are we taking too much? It's all in the name of King Jing, and I'm afraid that it will be difficult for King Jing to explain to the courtiers when he comes back. ”

The Queen Mother's moist cheeks were a little sullen, and she shook her fan and said:

"I said that I would take Bengong out for a walk, but they went out to play and left Bengong here alone, what's wrong with Bengong picking something pleasing to you? Could it be suffocated here? ”

"But what's the use of asking for two horses? I can't play ...... mother."

"Is it okay to put it in the palace to ward off evil spirits? I left someone to collect a room of magic weapons, and I didn't see her use it a few times...... And this, I'll send it to the main palace house later. ”

Hongyu looked at the place pointed by the Queen Mother, but saw that it was a beautiful screen.

Beauty screens are very common, but this one in King Wu's Mansion is more special, not only is it made of luxurious wood as a whole, but the beauty on the screen is not yet dressed......

？

Hongyu hurriedly stood in front of the Queen Mother and persuaded:

"Mother, I'm afraid this thing is inappropriate, don't stain your eyes......"

The Queen Mother swept away the rebellious red jade with a fan, and looked at the lifelike screen with great interest:

"It's a noble thing, how is it not appropriate? Look at the foundation of this embroidery, it is exquisite...... What are these two beauties doing? How do you split your legs and stack them together? ”

Hongyu naturally did not explain the allusion of 'grinding the mirror', and covered the very embarrassing place on the screen with her hand:

"Niangniang, you better look at something else, look at that jade chessboard, how beautiful ......"

How could the Queen Mother be interested in these messy worldly treasures, just idle and boring, seeing the red jade blocking, she naturally became more and more energetic, just to grind the mirror screen.

Fortunately, the two didn't have to fight for long, and a maid ran in to report:

"Niangniang, King Jing is back."

The Queen Mother's eyes were slightly happy when she heard this, but she came over and did not inform the six courtiers that it was not appropriate to show up, so she said:

"Let the leavers get busy and come here quickly."

"Yes......"

——

Gollum~

In Jianyang City, 2,000 officers and soldiers pressed dozens of wagons loaded with prisoners and seized goods, and walked through the city's wide main road, and the streets were lined with people watching carefully.

At the front of the line, there were three hundred black-armored forbidden troops, surrounded by King Jing's luxurious chariots.

Dongfang Liren and Xuanji real people are sitting in the carriage, there are many people around, and they don't open the window, but listening to the subtle movements inside, it is estimated that one is reading miscellaneous books in the middle of the eight classics, and the other is lazily leaning on the couch and drinking wine.

Although the Night Terror Hall was very favored by the stupid, it was impossible for him to blatantly sit in the queen's carriage and swagger through the city, and at this time, he was wearing the robe of the deputy commander of the black government and followed behind the carriage.

Luo Ning and Pei Xiangjun also changed into the robes of the black ya, and followed them as followers.

Because she was caught by her best friend, Luo Ning was really embarrassed to drive the car in front of her, so she was far away from the Night Terror Hall, and she didn't talk along the way, just carried the birds and looked at the scenery on the street.

Pei Xiangjun was wearing an oil coat, driving a horse and walking in front of him, and there were many black yamen around him, and it was not easy to talk about love, but he just whispered about the arrangements of Wuzhou Hall in the future.

The carriage passed through the paved streets, and when it was getting dark, it came to the outside of the great king's palace.

Dongfang Liren got down from the carriage, and the Night Terror Hall fulfilled the duty of sticking to the master, holding out an oil-paper umbrella and covering it above his head; Xuanji Zhenren walked in front of him with a hat, and he could smell the faint aroma of wine when he was very close.

The six important ministers were all waiting in front of the palace, and when they saw the big stupid triumphant, naturally a bunch of people came up to pat themselves:

"Your Highness is really resolute......

"Wen Neng writes Zhen Yun'an, and Wu Ke carries a gun to capture the rebel king..."

"Good poetry, good poetry, good poetry......"

……

Dongfang Liren has made great contributions and was praised by the ministers, so he was naturally very happy, maintained the momentum of the cold queen, negotiated with the ministers lightly, rewarded the soldiers and horses of Zezhou, and waited until the order was over, so that everyone dispersed to rest, and went to the rear of the palace with his entourage.

Luo Ning and Pei Xiangjun are not from the official mansion, and it is obviously inappropriate to follow King Jing, so the Night Terror Hall asked the maid to arrange a good accommodation, and the two of them lived first.

He hadn't gotten off work yet, and continued to follow Ben Ben to his dormitory, discussing affairs along the way:

"This king has sent someone to Zezhou to see what Junshantai's reaction is, as long as there is news, I will inform you immediately."

"Your Highness. I estimate that even if Junshantai knows, he will not commit crimes against the wind, and now Junshantai can take revenge on me, it should be a Xuanyuan Dynasty, if he personally goes out to take revenge, it will be difficult for the people in the government to find out what is going on......"

……

During the chat, everyone walked through the main hall of the palace and came to the living area where the concubines and concubines lived.

Dongfang left for a few days, and was worried that the Queen Mother was bored and suffocated, and was about to ask where the Queen Mother was, when a maid trotted over and reported:

"Your Royal Highness, the Queen Mother chooses the objects in the treasury, so that you can go over and say goodbye when you are busy."

Dongfang Liren actually wanted to rummage through King Wu's private collection to see what good treasures there were, so he followed the maid to the big warehouse.

The last time Night Terror Hall saw the Queen Mother, it was the day when she saw Yuhu and the White Jade Tiger, and it was on the dragon bed, and she knocked the Queen Mother unconscious.

The Queen Mother is very fond of holding grudges, how dare she touch her head at this time, and hurriedly said:

"The humble post will retire first, Your Highness will send someone directly to order if you have something, and I will be on call."

Dongfang Liren didn't know how many rebellious things the Night Terror Hall had done on the night when she held her for a bird's-eye view of the night view of the capital, and thought that the Night Terror Hall had saved the Queen Mother in the tunnel, and the Queen Mother's perception of the Night Terror Hall should be good, and in front of the Night Terror Hall, she should be embarrassed to lose her temper because of being left out in the cold, so she said:

"It's all here, go over and ask for a good time before leaving."

"Uh......"

Night Terror Hall couldn't resist the order, so he still stubbornly went to the big warehouse with him.

Xuanji Zhenren kept walking in front of him, and when he saw that the Night Terror Hall reacted with a strange look, he asked:

"Night Terror, have you seen the Queen Mother?"

Dongfang Liren responded: "He is in the Black Ya, so he has naturally seen the Queen Mother, what's wrong with the master?" ”

Xuanji has a lot of real girlfriends, the previous good friend was Luo Ning, and the current good friend is the Queen Mother.

She knows the temperament of the queen mother, who has lived in the deep palace for a long time and is depressed, and is easily deceived by bad men with bad intentions.

Night Terror Hall has stolen the three people around her, if she is bold and thinks about serving a pot......

Xuanji Zhenren squinted slightly, and there was a vague meaning in his eyes - this son must not be left behind......

Night Terror Hall and Xuanji Zhenren walked side by side behind them, and found Xuanji Zhenren's eyes, spreading their hands slightly, meaning that it was - Miss Shui'er, what do you want? I look like that kind of lawless pervert?

Xuanji Zhenren didn't think it was like it, but the Night Terror Hall had already so many outrageous girls, and it was not uncommon to have one more outrageous, so he still gave a warning in his eyes......
