Luzhou, Ludu Juxianzhuang.

This is the end of the story of Helu Dongtian, because he helped Han Zhan open the stone gate of Dongtian, Langqikan was respected as a guest of honor by Juxian Village, and his status in Juxian Village was second only to the owner Deng Zhi and Su Min.

As for what Lang Qikan got from the cave sky, no one asked, and no one would ask, Han Zhan believed that they had all gained something in the Helu cave sky, as for what it was, he didn't care, since it was someone else's chance, why did he bother to talk too much.

When the wind rose on a summer night, Su Min stood on the roof of the pavilion in a light blue dress, looking up at the sky.

Lang Qi Kan walked out of the house, looked up slightly and saw Su Min on the roof, Lang Qi Kan who was standing in place did not make a sound, quietly looked at the woman on the roof, the courtyard was silent for a while, and at a certain moment, Su Min suddenly turned his head, looked at each other, and Lang Qi Kan was embarrassed.

Lang Qikan flew up and came behind Su Min, when Su Min noticed that there was someone behind him, he said coldly, "Is there something wrong with the wolf master?" ”

"I heard that Master Deng Zhuang said that you are going to Xiangzhou to find Ning Gongzi?" Lang Qikan said casually, and wanted to take two steps forward, but after thinking about it, he stopped.

Because he felt that the girl in front of him didn't like people to be close to her.

"I wanted to go before, but now I don't want to go." Su Min's words surprised Lang Qikan a little.

"Why?" Lang Qikan chuckled softly.

Su Min said slowly, "Whatever people you meet and what you have experienced in your life, in fact, they are all good, God can let me meet the young master, I am already very content, I can't be too greedy, I think if we really have a fate in the future, we will meet again." ”

"You're pretty open." Lang Qikan laughed at himself, "It seems that in the Helu Cave Heaven, someone woke you up." ”

"Wolf Lord, what about you? Aren't you leaving? Not leaving? Su Min asked with a rare rhetorical expression.

On the roof of King Langqikan, looking at the stars above his head, he smiled slowly, "Like you, someone woke me up." ”

The corners of Su Min's mouth rose slightly, in the moonlight, in the summer breeze.

Langqikan, who was in a good mood for a while, felt a rare relaxation, and all the doubts and sorrows that had accumulated before flowed out like a flood bursting the embankment.

Is this what the old man in Helu Cave said came from the west?

……

After staying in Juxianzhuang for a few days, Han Zhan and Liu En set off to return to Xinchen.

Along the way, Liu Endu was a little absent-minded, obviously having something on his mind.

And after seeing Liu En's women's clothes in the illusion, Han Zhan also felt that the two of them were a little awkward walking together.

The two of them had a tacit understanding without saying a word, walking very slowly on the road, and after a long time, Liu En behind him asked, "Han Zhan......"

"Huh?" Han Zhan subconsciously turned around to look.

Liu En looked up at Han Zhan, "In the illusion in the sky of Helu Cave, have you seen me?" ”

The young master of the Legalist family was silent.

Ryu continued to look up and said, "I saw you. ”

Han Zhan was stunned for a moment.

Yoo Eun took a deep breath and chuckled back, "What's your expression?" ”

Han Zhan grinned, turned around and said, "I saw a girl who looked very much like you, so you asked me if I saw you, and I didn't know...... I don't know if that's you. ”

Liu Enle stepped forward and slapped Han Zhan on the back of the head, and Han Zhan was stunned, "What are you doing?" ”

"It's okay, let's go."

Liu En walked forward, this time Han Zhan followed behind Liu En, and Liu En, who was walking in front, had red eyes, when will he recover his daughter's body? Wait!

This river and lake not only has knives and guns, but also fine wine.

……

Jiaozhou, Zhennanguan.

On the city wall of the Jiaozhou border pass, a man with a sword on his back stood at the head of the city wearing a soldier's uniform, with a resolute expression.

Today's Situ Jingchun is no longer the immature young man who wanted to go out of the border pass to hone his sword qi, the current Situ Jingchun is a soldier of Zhennan Pass, just a soldier.

"Situ, Situ ......" a lazy man's voice sounded.

Situ Jingchun hurriedly looked back, and Yao Chitian, the captain of the Huotou Army, hummed and put the big bun that had just come out of the pot into Situ Jingchun's hand.

Situ Jingchun smiled, quickly caught it, looked around, and after making sure that there was no one around, he sat directly on the ground, holding the big meat bun and gnawing it.

Yao Chitian, the commander next to him, squatted next to him, opened the wine gourd on his waist, and drank the wine.

"Lao Yao, you are still good to me, I haven't eaten much all day, but I'm starving." Situ Jingchun said while gulping.

"Who told you not to listen to General Zhou's words and secretly take someone to Shanzhou, fortunately there was no accident, if something happened, let alone the general, even Renguo Gong couldn't protect you." Lao Yao said while drinking.

"The young master of the Dongyue Wumen came to us for help, we don't care about anything, it's too unrighteous." Situ Jingchun took it for granted.

"Stinky boy, what kind of good guy are you pretending to be here, is there a flood of sympathy, right?" Yao Chitian next to him slapped a big slap on the back of Situ Jingchun's head with a backhand.

Situ Jingchun muttered and said, "Old Yao, when will Sister Su Su come back, I miss her a little." ”

Yao Chitian leaned on the battlements, took a sip of wine and said, "I don't know about this, it depends on whether Renguogong's body can resist it, Situ, old man, if I say something from my heart, do you have a crush on my young lady?" ”

Situ Jingchun smiled and touched his head embarrassedly, "It's a little bit!" But Sister Su Su has always regarded me as a younger brother, and I ...... Hey......"

"After so many years, you should know Miss's temperament." Lao Yao smiled and said with relief, "But old man, I have confidence in you, the young lady is not too young, and she has also reached the age of talking about marriage, you kid work hard, old man, I may be able to drink your wedding wine before I leave the army." ”

Yao Chitian laughed as he spoke, and Situ Jingchun also laughed.

"Then I'll work harder, hey."

Situ Jingchun, who was born with a golden spoon in his mouth since he was a child, always had a feeling of inferiority when facing Su Su, not because of his identity, but because Su Su was too perfect, and he hadn't even opened the sword edge until now.

But will Sister Su Su wait until she opens the sword edge?

……

The weather in Jiaozhou in May is hot and muggy.

Ning Xiaochuan traveled all the way south, and at the end of the month, he finally arrived in Gui County, Jiaozhou.

But today's Gui County is obviously not as lively as when he first arrived, and Renguo Gong's illness involves the hearts of every Jiaozhou people.

According to Su Suxin, she has been taking care of the old man in Gui County since Renguo Gong was seriously ill, and after staying for a long time, Su Su can also notice a trace of abnormality, that is, since the old man was seriously ill, the imperial court seems to have secretly taken power, otherwise, he would not have inexplicably sent a state pastor to hand over the state.

One of the reasons why Su Su wrote to Ning Xiaochuan was also because of this new state pastor.

Guijun Cheng Mansion.

Old man Cheng leaned on the bed, his face pale, but even if he was seriously ill, the old man's eyes were shining and he did not lose his spirit.

Su Su came to Cheng Yuan's side with the decoction, leaned over and whispered, "General Cheng, the time has come, it's time to drink the medicine." ”

Cheng Yuan stood up and looked at Su Su next to him, his eyes were red, "Su Su, thanks to you, I didn't expect that it was not my daughter who could be by my side at this time, but you." ”

"Old general, you just treat me as a young grandmother, don't worry, as long as I am still in Jiaozhou for a day, I will always be by your side." Su Su said with a smile, carefully feeding the medicine to Old Man Cheng as she spoke.

Cheng Yuan nodded and said, "By the way, didn't that kid Ning Xiaochuan say he was coming?" It's been a few months, why haven't you come yet? ”

"Childe wrote a few days ago saying that he has entered Jiaozhou, it is estimated that this will have already arrived in Gui County, don't worry, Childe, he will come to see you soon." Su Su said with relief.

"Hey, the world is chaotic now, it's really hard for him to come to Jiaozhou at this time." Cheng Yuan smiled helplessly.

The world was in turmoil, especially after Gaoling ascended the throne, the new policy was chaotic, the court was chaotic, and the place was even more chaotic.

If it weren't for Ning Feng and others who were struggling to support them in the court, I am afraid that the current Dafeng would have become a mess of porridge a long time ago.

"Master......" While the two were talking, the old housekeeper Cheng De walked in, and the old housekeeper was leaning over, and his face didn't look good.

"What's wrong?" Looking at the old housekeeper's appearance, Cheng Yuan frowned and said.

Cheng De bowed his hand and said, "The new state pastor stopped the implementation of the new policy, saying that the new policy emphasized business and suppressed agriculture, which was not conducive to the long-term stability of the governor of Jiao, and closed down the West Market despite everyone's opposition. ”

"Jiaozhou is located in the southern border, full of hills and mountains, how to develop agriculture in this kind of place, it is really nonsense." Cheng Yuan said angrily.

"Master, now everyone is waiting for you to recover, and now no one can talk to the new Lord Governor except you." The old butler shook his head and said.

Jiaozhou's new state pastor is named Li Zhonghu, and when he heard the name, he thought he was a military general with five big and three thick, but he was actually a delicate reader, and when he first came to Jiaozhou, he did get Cheng Yuan's appreciation with his three-inch tongue.

But something was wrong after Cheng Yuan's illness, and Li Zhonghu began to meddle in government affairs in various ways, arbitrarily dismissing officials and changing policies according to his own intentions, so that the situation in Jiaozhou, which was finally stabilized by business, became chaotic again.

"Now it's not just our Jiaozhou, Suzhou, Yangzhou, Qingzhou, and Xiangzhou are like this, the imperial court doesn't care about it, and officials from all over the country have no way to take these state pastors who appear out of thin air, now what we can do is to try to stabilize the people's hearts and stabilize the officialdom, in short, the overall situation must not be chaotic."

Cheng Yuan frowned and said, but from his eyes, he could see that the situation in Jiaozhou was not optimistic.

"Don't worry, sir, most of the officials in Jiaozhou are still on our side now, and Jiaozhou can't be chaotic." The old butler spoke.

Cheng Yuan smiled lightly and sighed, "I hope the political situation can improve quickly, and Dafeng can't be chaotic anymore." ”

However, is the truth really as Cheng Yuan thinks?
