Volume 1 The War of Nations Chapter 13 The Protector Girl Benqi
Outside the city, the official road travelers are sparsely populated, and the white horse is lined with green shirts. The clear sky and brocade feathers fly with wings, and there is nowhere to find good news at the end of the world.
After leaving the city, Feng Ling walked unhurriedly on the official road of the Qin State. Looking at the sparse pedestrians on the road, Zhong Liji's voice appeared in front of him from time to time, and Feng Lingwang muttered to himself: "I don't know where she teleported, whether she was injured by the spirit." ”
In reverie, after unconsciously walking for more than 20 miles, he suddenly heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves behind him, and a knight dressed as a court guard of the Qin State accelerated towards everyone. Feng Ling's mind was full of Zhong Liji at this time, although he heard the sound of horses' hooves, he ignored it, and rode silently by himself. The knight came to Feng Ling's side after a short time, slowed down his riding speed and called Feng Ling and said, "The young master pauses his progress, and the king has asked me to send a message to you, so that you can wait here for a while, and you have something to entrust." ”
Hearing this, the wind Ling Le Ma stopped, stopped and looked back, and saw more than a dozen horses riding forward and hugging back, guarding a dragon ring carving, moire carving, and six equally tall jujube horses pulled the canopy cart on the official road galloping towards this place. After a while, the carriage and horse came to Feng Ling, and a guard stepped forward and said, "I said that Qin Jun is in the car, please board the car and listen to the order." “
Feng Ling got off the horse and got into the car, there were two people in the car, Qin Jun and a young man dressed in white, full of luxury, handsome face, and petite figure sat in the car. Feng Ling glanced at it hurriedly, only to feel that the man's face was kind. After saluting Qin Jun, Qin Jun pointed at the handsome man and said to Feng Ling: "This is the princess Ji Huang, the young master has seen it before." ”
Feng Ling was surprised, and if she looked closely, she was really a princess, but she was dressed in men's clothes for some reason.
"The princess is here to miss her aunt and Mrs. Ji, and she came to visit relatives in Qin. I have seen my wife now, and it is inconvenient to stay long. Knowing that the young master was going to the Qi Kingdom, please escort him to find his master, Ling Weixiao, the Great Sword Master. ”
Feng Ling was surprised, according to the courtesy, after the royal woman finished visiting her relatives, she should be sent back to the palace, but she was sent to Qi for some reason. Seeing that Qin Jun didn't say anything, it was inconvenient to ask more questions at the moment, so he said, "Feng Ling obeys orders." After saying that, he saluted and got out of the car and waited.
After the princess and Feng Ling got out of the car, Qin Jun said to Ji Huang: "Your Highness, Lone can only send you here, the young master is strong in martial arts, wise and wise, there is his protection on the road, Lonely, you can go by yourself." ”
"Xie Guojun." The princess gave a salute, so she summoned the arranged horses and maids to entourage a woman, two men and three people, and together with Feng Ling, bid farewell to Qin Jun and went to the same road.
Because the period of controversy was still early, Feng Ling was worried about the delicate princess, so he did not urge the horse to run.
However, the princess seems to be delicate, but in fact she is athletic, and she leads the way and gallops ahead of everyone. Although it is a change of dress, it is still difficult to hide its scorching demeanor, looking at the princess in white clothes on the horse, Feng Ling suddenly thought of Zhong Liji who was floating out of the dust, and couldn't help but feel a blur.
After eating in the field at noon, there was not much communication, and the princess took the lead in riding the horse and whipping, and everyone had to follow closely. As a result, the speed of the line is faster than that of the previous Fengling single line, and when it is less than unitary, it will reach Leyang.
The autumn wind sends the leaves to fly all over the ground, and the slanting sun casts color printing white clothes. The pedestrians on the official road are sparse in saddle horses, and the petite whips the horses' hooves. The five people came to the outside of Leyang City, and although the princess was not tired, she was also covered with sand and dust, and she was drenched in sweat. The maid, who was also dressed in men's clothes, couldn't bear it, so she said to the princess: "It's getting late at this time, it seems that you can't get to the food letter pass today, Your Highness, it's better to enter Leyang City for a night of rest for the time being, and go again tomorrow." ”
When the princess heard this, she did not refuse, and sent all the people into the city.
The group entered the city and arrived at the largest "Four Seas" inn in Leyang City, Wang Nu ordered Li Yanchun to go to check in, and asked the store to arrange an upstairs private room, and then went upstairs to the guest room.
Feng Ling and another attendant arranged the horses and entered the shop. Looking for an empty table and sitting down, just about to pour tea to quench his thirst, Feng Lington was alert. Turning his head sideways and looking out of the door of the store, he saw two men who looked like merchants in ordinary clothes looking left and right, and their eyes locked on the queen and queen on the stairs and nodded to each other at the same time.
Sensing Feng Ling's sharp eyes, the two immediately turned around and escaped into the crowded street.
When Feng Ling saw the situation of the two of them, he just poured tea and drank it casually, and did not go out to pursue it.
Half an hour later, after the wine and food were ready, the princess washed all the dust, changed into a suit, and entered the private room, ordering Li Yanchun to go downstairs and invite Feng Ling, and only the maid was left to serve at the table in the elegant room. Seeing Feng Ling enter and sit down, and motioned to the maid to serve Feng Ling with wine, Wang Nu spoke: "I had to rely on the help of the young master to save me from the sword soldiers, and I was seriously injured. ”
"The princess is polite."
When the wine was full, the princess raised the teacup and said to Feng Ling: "For this trip, the young master must have many doubts along the way, please drink this cup first, and I will come to you one by one." After speaking, raise a glass and invite tea instead of wine.
Feng Ling also raised a lamp to drink.
"A few days ago, I don't know who you are, and there are bad people plotting against you, so it's inconvenient to tell you. Now that Qin Jun has informed the young master's identity, he will no longer hide it. I am the eldest daughter of the Son of Heaven, because I don't want my father to give me a marriage, I fled from the royal capital and went to my aunt. Unexpectedly, the news was lost, and my father's envoy came to the Qin Palace last night and asked Qin Jun to return me. Qin Jun took pity on me, but he couldn't leave me in vain, so he informed the envoy that I had left Qin. Secretly, I disguised myself and sneaked around, looking for an opportunity to rush to the country of Qi to find my uncle, in order to ask him to let my father dissolve the marriage. At this point, I raised my glass again.
Feng Ling drank silently, but still had a suspicious look on his face.
Seeing this, Wang Nu asked with a smile, "Does the young master know who my master is?" ”
"I have just been out of the mountain for a few years, and I have seen shallow and ugly, and I only know the name of the great sword master, but I don't know its origin."
"Also, it is the princes and princes in this world, and few people know that the world-famous swordsman is my uncle."
Feng Ling was stunned when he heard this, he never thought that Ling Weixiao was actually a member of the royal family, no wonder the princess didn't return to the palace, but wanted to find this person.
The princess said: "My uncle is a concubine, and he has been strong and intelligent since he was a child, and he is deeply loved by his great-grandfather. So the great ancestor let him enter the Inner Garden Martial God Pavilion to practice martial arts. The uncle practiced in the pavilion for decades, so he forgot about his existence inside and outside the palace. It wasn't until the great-grandfather was critically ill that the uncle went out to serve the people. After the death of the great-grandfather and the succession of the grandfather, the uncle left the palace for three years of filial piety, traveled the world, cut the traitor and eliminate the evil, and did not return it after many years, and an iron sword broke out of the world. ”
Speaking of this, the princess drank a cup of fragrant tea, and then said: "A few years later, my grandfather set out to fight against Rongdi, and believed the words of the Hu guide, and the army went deep into the desert, and was changed by the wolf, and fell into the siege. At that time, the situation was urgent, and the gods were in danger, so the uncle entered Fengming Mountain to invite the gods to save the world. The wisdom of the divine master is superb, the Taoist art is mysterious, after going out of the mountain, the whole country raised troops to meet the Hu army, after several conquests, Rong Di out of the border pass, the world can be stable. ”
"During the war, my uncle guarded my father and us day and night, and many times he used his sword skills to destroy the enemy and assassinate them, and I was very surprised by his magical sword skills. After that, whenever my uncle practiced swords, I imitated them beside me, and I learned them like each other. My uncle saw that I was smart and clever, and my qualifications were not bad, so he loved me very much. That's when I asked him to teach me swordsmanship. This time, I went because I asked my uncle for protection."
"I see."
Wang Nu continued to invite Feng Ling to drink, and after stopping the drink, she said: "This morning, Xiangguo told the young master to leave Qin and go to Qi, and the monarch personally escorted me after the court meeting, please protect the young master." This trip is a long way, Qin Jun instructed me to go forward in secret, not to leak the news, after leaving Qin, I can only avoid the main road, less into the city pass. Therefore, I have to work hard for the young master along the way. ”
"The king's order is invited, and he is happy, and His Highness does not need to be polite."
The princess nodded and smiled, and then invited each other to drink. When raising the glass, the two looked at each other, Ji Huang looked at Feng Ling, suddenly with a red face, and stopped talking.
Feng Ling saw this, stopped and asked, "Your Highness has any questions, and I know everything in Xia." ”
"Previously, in the stone room of the restaurant, you saw my appearance, temporarily regained consciousness, and called me 'Zhongli girl', what is the reason?"
"I take the liberty of asking Your Highness for forgiveness. It's just that His Royal Highness's dignity is very similar to a girl I know, and when I saw it for a moment, I thought it was the same person, so I did this. ”
The princess knew that she would not fake, and said strangely: "It is rare that there is a person in the world who looks so similar to me, and where is the woman now, I want to see her." ”
"I don't know where he is, I'm searching, if I find it, I will ask him to meet His Highness."
"It's a pity, I think the young master has a great relationship with that woman, otherwise why would he see my appearance and return to his clarity."
Feng Ling hugged and said: "I have only known her for a few days, just because she has saved her, it can be regarded as sharing hardships and hardships." ”
"I see."
After listening, the princess stopped talking and let Feng Ling eat at will, and her own family also drank and ate slowly. After more than a moment, Feng Ling was full of food and retired, and the princess got up to send her away and went back to her room.
Feng Ling did not inform the princess of the situation of the two men dressed as merchants going to the "Four Seas" inn to investigate, but was secretly vigilant, and since the two escaped, no one came to investigate.
Early the next morning, after the princess finished washing, she went downstairs from the room, and saw that the entourage had purchased the supplies properly, and Feng Ling was already waiting, so she immediately let everyone eat breakfast. After the meal, the five people and five riders walked out of Leyang City and ran towards the food letter pass.
The maple forests along this road are dense, the fallen leaves are paved with the ground, and pedestrians are rare. However, Feng Ling was still aware of someone accompanying him, but the people who came were also extremely vigilant and always kept a long distance from everyone. Worried about the safety of the princess, Feng Ling did not go to investigate.
There was nothing to do all the way, and the five people came to the front of the Yuhan Pass before dark, and entered the pass after being questioned by the soldiers defending the city, and Feng Ling asked the soldiers on duty to inform the general Zhao Xiongsheng, saying that Feng Ling was visiting.
Knowing that Feng Ling was coming, Zhao Xiongsheng hurriedly came to greet him. Everyone ran all the way to the dust, except for Feng Ling, they were all tired, Zhao Xiongsheng saw this, and invited the group to enter the general's mansion. During the conversation, he learned that he wanted to go out of the customs to Qi, so he said that the city would be closed in the evening and he could not travel. Immediately arrange accommodation and food, so that everyone can temporarily rest in the Jiangfu tonight, and open and let them go tomorrow.
