Chapter 121: Selling Flowers

On the sixth day of October, heavy snow entered the city and traveled thousands of miles.

At the head of the southern city, Sun Wu's body is still there, and the dragon king's spine is buried in a snowdrift.

Lu Xing stood under the enemy building, facing the snow, and his eyes were raised.

Liu Danyang was by his side, and Liu Danyang handed over the stove and let Lu Xing hold it with both hands, so that he could not be afraid of the cold in the heavy snow.

Xiao Yu is hot tea behind him, and the big red robe tree on the Tianshan Mountain has only three taels of tea a year.

"Xiao Yu, how's the tea?"

"Don't worry, Childe, there's a cold wind outside, so it's going to be hot for a while."

"Hmm."

Lu Xing asked, "Liu Danyang, you are not from Xuejin City, tell me, what is Xuejin City like in your eyes?"

"Xuejin City ......" Liu Danyang muttered in a low voice, his expression complicated.

"I'll read the first word to Childe."

"Xuejin is vast and thousands of households, and the Amuro family has a surplus of goods, and the children raise their arms and chant together." Her voice was slightly sluggish, her eyebrows were slightly stained with snow, and her eyes fell on white ground.

The tone of the voice plummets, like a spring running out and fallen leaves decaying.

"The cold wind is biting, the dangerous building locks the jade, the iron rider returns, and the geese cry."

"You wrote that?" Lu Xing was a little surprised, did he still teach to write words when he was cultivating saucers in the bookstore?

Liu Danyang shook his head and said, "It's not me, Sister Ying'er wrote it, and the title of the song is Selling Flowers."

"Wei Ying, that's nothing......

Lu Xing knows Wei Ying, there was a scholar who cultivated Confucianism in her past life, and she was blessed with misfortune.

"This word, it sounds like it was written for me, and I bothered to say it to Ying'er for me."

Liu Danyang hurriedly said, his voice was a little resentful, "Childe, let's go and tell Sister Ying'er by yourself, you have been busy these days, but don't be a beauty."

"Okay, I will."

Lu Xing said, look at the snow, under the city, the snow buries the road, and it is difficult to find a tree.

"Here, Childe asked for tea." Xiao Yu was holding a mahogany plate with a cup of tea on it.

Lu Xing picked up the teacup and said, "Tomorrow, you and I will go to the Heavenly Pavilion again."

Xiao Yu nodded, "Hmm."

In the distance, a cheer was heard.

"Drive!" The horse's hooves were trampling, stepping on the snow to open the road, and Lei Ying was wearing a pair of soft armor.

Nearby, she rolled over and dismounted, fell to one knee, and presented a secret letter with both hands. Chinese Net

"Shizi, Qin Wu led his troops out of the snow field, at least 10,000 horsemen, and he will arrive in Xuejin City in a few days."

"What! Whose appointment is it?"

Lu Xing hurriedly picked up the secret letter and read it carefully several times, his hand holding the letter fell, and he sighed, "Ten thousand horses have arrived in Changlin County, and it is only a day's journey from Xuejin City."

"Shizi, the king has exceeded his name, bypassing the Pavilion and you, and privately mobilizing the army." Lei Ying clenched her fists, and the sound was like a throw.

"This trip is not done by loyal ministers, leading the border army into the city, taking the ancient as a mirror, the Han has Dong Zhuo Huojing, the Tang has the Anshi Rebellion, and the king is afraid that he will not be a minister."

Lu Xing raised his eyebrows and asked, "What did Lan Wu teach you about this?"

"Yes," Lei Ying said, "But I also feel that Qin Wu is uneasy and kind, and it is definitely not the Gongwei Xuejin City that Wang Juming said when he comes back, and he is not the Gongwei Xuejin City that Wang Juming said. The prince has to guard against it!"

Lu Xing sighed and said, "Can you think of it, what about the other pavilion elders, can't they think of it?"

"Let me tell you, yesterday the Yusuo Building held a meeting of the elders, and Wang Juming wanted to be a loyal minister of the Great Zhou, and he wanted to collect Kyushu and go down in history."

"But until today, even Song Yan hasn't contacted me, if I'm not mistaken, Chen Wenzhe hasn't said anything to you. There should be an agreement between the elders."

Lei Ying said: "Grandpa Chen complained of illness and said that he would recuperate for a few days, so he moved to live in a bamboo building in the inner city."

"Unprecedented, this time Chen Mu didn't object, and even went to the bamboo building with him."

Lu Xing said, "Lei Ying, please have one more thing to worry about, you and the Blue Five Point City Guards are one thousand, and you will block Qin Wu three miles away from the city."

Lei Ying clenched his fists and said, "No."

She hurried down the city wall and disappeared

Lost in sight on the land line.

Lu Xing knew very well that the city defense soldiers alone could not stop Qin Wu, and in addition to thousands of troops and horses, there was only one person who could stop Qin Wu - Ning Hao.

Lu Xing said, "You guys go back to the City Lord's Mansion first, and I'll go to the Qin Mansion."

"No!" Liu Danyang and Xiao Yu curtsied.

Qin Mansion

Lu Xing and Ning Hao chatted on their knees, and the maids gave melons and fruits to eat and then retreated.

Lu Xing asked, "I have to bother my sister to make a trip, can my sister come on the day of my coronation?"

Ning Hao raised his eyes, stretched out his hand to brush the snow off Lu Xing's shoulder, and said with a smile, "You, remember to bring an umbrella when you go out. The coronation is my brother's top priority, and I will definitely come."

"Do you know about Qin Wu?"

"Qin Wu? I drove him back to the snowfield. Speaking of him, there is one thing I have to tell you," Ning Hao held a cup of tea in both hands, pursed his red lips slightly, and spit out the tea leaves in his mouth, "Next year, Qin Wu will not be the commander of the Great Pool of Warriors. I want to ask him for a clerical job, the kind of ...... he can stay in Seoljin Castle."

This is to probe Ning Hao's tone, who knew that such a sentence would come, give up military power?

Lu Xing asked, "Why?"

Ning Hao's face was slightly red, and he said, "My sister wants a child, let him come back to protect my baby."

"Sister's body?" Lu Xing wondered.

Ning Hao nodded, "Well, the medicine Jiang Yazhi left for me will almost be recuperated after taking it for the next year."

Talking about these, Lu Xing's words are a little unspeakable, if it is said that Qin Wu led the army out of the snow field, it involves the matter of Wang Juming wanting to rebel.

Lu Xing said, "Okay, then the younger brother will retire first."

Ning Hao said, "Are you in such a hurry? Why don't you stay for dinner?"

"No, sister, have you forgotten, you just got married a few days ago?"

Ning Hao smiled all over his face, "Okay, okay, my sister won't keep you, you can just think about the newcomer."

Lu Xing was sent out of the Qin Mansion by Ning Hao, and he walked alone on Suzaku Street.

The street is full of people, lined with shops of all shapes, the snow covers the eaves, and the noon sun leads the road ahead.

Lu Xing came to a teahouse and sat down, this was an open-air tea table, and the nearest wooden table to Lu Xing sat a handsome son.

"Little two, half a catty of beef, a stack of peanuts."

"Come on, guest wait." The shopkeeper is a sturdy man, and his arms look harder than steel.

His voice was rough, and when he poured the tea, he knocked the cup, and the tea spilled a lot, "Hehe, it's full, it's full, wait a minute, I'll get you beef."

A smile appeared on the face of the shopkeeper, his eyes narrowed into stitches, and his steps were a little heavier.

He came to the table of the handsome prince again, poured wine for him, and said politely, "I've been waiting for a long time, the tea in this shop is all the best mountain spring water, and the prince can taste it."

He walked up to the shopkeeper, and the two of them didn't know what to say, the smile on the shopkeeper's face froze, his body lowered by two points, and he quickly cut the beef on the board, each of which was exactly the same size.

The shopkeeper personally brought the beef to Lu Xing's table and said respectfully, "Childe, please, the fresh beef that was just killed yesterday is all loin meat, the signature of our store."

Lu Xing glanced at him and asked, "Did your shopkeeper go to the courtyard at the back?" This yard is yours?"

The shopkeeper smiled, a coppery smell, "Yes, my own yard. The second little boy is a distant relative of mine."

"Oh," Lu Xing said, chewing beef, looking around the open-air teahouse, "Then you are quite good at making a living, and you are willing to work hard with such a large yard, if you add a few more tables and chairs, and build a stable, business will be better."

"Childe is high, and the little one admires." The shopkeeper had a white cloth on his hand to wipe away sweat, and it was bulging inside.

"It's not like it's just some advice. Seojin City is a place to live in peace, and if you want to stay for a long time, you still have to have a stable livelihood." Lu Xing wiped his mouth with the handkerchief given by Xiao Yu, and was about to leave after dropping a tael of silver.

Suddenly, there was the sound of hurried, chaotic footsteps

In the daylight, the shadows are stacked chaotically, and the knife light is extremely dazzling.

"Stop!"

The strong man who was originally dressed as a shopkeeper was wearing soft armor at the moment, his exposed skin was shining gold, and he was holding a broad-bladed broadsword in his right hand. And behind him, there were seven strong men with sharp weapons, with fierce eyes, all of them outlaws.

"You are Lu Xing, and today is your time of death."

His fierce appearance frightened the tea guests who were seated and fled in a hurry, only the handsome man sat motionless.

Lu Xing turned around and said helplessly, "Do you have to kill yourself? I have no intention of killing you."

The strong man with the knife glared angrily, "Beast, don't think that we will let you go if you pretend to be human, Lao Tzu will use your head to pay tribute to Snow White today!"

"Wait, what is the relationship between Dong Xiangxue and you?"

Before Lu Xing's words were spoken, those strong men had already swarmed up, and the speed of several of them was comparable to that of the martial artists of the Vajra Realm.

Lu Xing raised his hand and grabbed the big knife that the strong man slashed at him, and with the force of his wrist, he broke the big knife, and then rolled up the snowflakes with one foot, and the strong qi wave shook the seven big men away.

"You!" The strong man gave up the big knife, and suddenly pulled out the dagger on his waist, and in an instant, he burst out with the speed of climbing the mountain, "Beast, give me death!"

However, all this was in vain, the divine fire in Lu Xing's heart burned, and the movement of the strong man's bayonet was like turtle speed in his eyes, and Lu Xing punched him in the abdomen, knocking him to the ground.

"Zheng!" Suddenly, there was a sword sound, and there was an extra sword in front of the handsome boy's table, with an emerald green hilt and a slender sword body.

Divine fire, open flame!

Lu Xing's speed increased sharply, comparable to the speed of the sixth-floor martial artist, and he grabbed the sword of the handsome prince with one hand, grabbed his shoulder with the other, and disappeared into the street at an imperceptible speed to the naked eye.

Before the pedestrians on the street could react, the figures of the two disappeared, and the belated city guard looked at the eight strong men who collapsed on the ground, and waved his hand helplessly, "Catch them all, dare to pick quarrels and provoke trouble in Xuejin City, it's really impatient."

In the alley, Lu Xing pressed his sword against the throat of the handsome boy, and his eyes were a little cold.

"Let go of me, you beast, let go of me!" The handsome prince tried to struggle, and his right hand stabbed Lu Xing's abdomen like a sword.

"Bell!" His right wrist was clasped by Lu Xing's fingers and slammed against the wall, blood flowing from the tiger's mouth.

"You ......" The handsome boy looked angrily, and after looking at Lu Xing's fierce gaze, he felt the coldness around his neck, and gradually settled down.

"You arranged that," Lu Xing stared into his eyes and asked, "Tell me, what is your relationship with Dong Xiangxue?"

"Don't lie, you are a master of a half-step great master of sword intent, if you don't tell me why, I won't let you go easily. I will never let the tiger return to the mountain."
