This post station is the place where foreign officials finally tidy up, rest, and contact with the Yamen before entering Beijing.

Sometimes, because of some procedural and ceremonial needs, they will even wander here for months - the longest record is in the third year of Yuanfeng, when Tang Nocturne, the governor of Jiangnan Province, entered Beijing to ask for guilt, but was rejected by a holy decree, and spent a whole year in this post station.

Later, this post station was even nicknamed the small yamen in Jiangnan, and official documents from the yamen of Jiangnan Province were sent here in an endless stream for Tang Nocturne to deal with.

There are too many people coming and going at the post station, and there are many people staying for a long time, so it is inevitable that there will be various needs, and post prostitutes also came into being.

Since he was able to run a leather and meat business at the post station, it was naturally an official background like the Jiaofang Division.

It's just that the girls of the Ministry of Rites are in charge of the Ministry of Rites, but these prostitutes are from the Ministry of Officials, some people say that it is the income of the Ministry of Officials, and some people know the inside story, saying that the Ministry of Officials Shangshu was angry when he went to the Department of Teaching, so he simply got a post prostitute out.

This is naturally nonsense, if you want to prostitute and go to the city to rush to various post stations, it is obviously too difficult to raise the pampered Lord Shangshu.

Qin Shou'an knew better, the prostitute was in charge of the father-in-law or female official in the palace, and they were all spies.

Some officials doubted the identity of the prostitute, and would say some loyal and patriotic things in their dreams, trying to curry favor with the palace.

Some of them didn't know about it, and they talked nonsense unscrupulously, and in the end, they couldn't figure out what was going on until the black yarn hat fell off.

Mrs. Yu Tuan took out the paperwork for changing horses, and the post chief hurriedly led the tired horses to the stables to prepare for the change of horses.

"This beauty, on the road with her husband? You see, this night is dark and the wind is high, the road is difficult to walk, and it is easy for people to turn on their backs. A thin man with a lightning scar on his forehead approached with a grin.

"You man don't want to talk nonsense, there are constant bonfires on the straight road, where is the night dark and the wind is high, and the road is difficult to walk?" Master Yu Tuan was a monk, and he felt the other party's hippie smile, and his words and deeds were frivolous, but he didn't think he was angry, but just took a few steps back to avoid the strong smell of alcohol on the other party.

"Then why don't you come and rest for a while...... I have good wine and good food here, wouldn't it be nice to call your husband and eat and drink together? The scarred man pointed to the tea pavilion, where everyone was drinking and eating meat together, and a whole leg of beef was roasting next to the stone table, and the charcoal fire was blazing, and the roasted beef leg was steaming with oil.

The men were dressed in a variety of ways, apparently some walking together, others eating and drinking together on an improvised basis.

They took a knife, cut off a piece, dipped it in the small ingredients and stuffed it into their mouths, the people in the rivers and lakes had good teeth, ate meat and drank wine, and then chewed the marinated beef tendon next to it, which was very enjoyable.

"Thank you ......"

Master Yu was about to refuse, thinking that His Royal Highness must not have had dinner yet, and he was in a hurry, after all, he was just a child who was less than nine grades, and like Hei Ji and Bai Ji, he had not grown up in the eyes of Master Yu, and he was the age when he needed to be taken care of and pitied.

"Then I'll use some beef."

After speaking, the long sword on the waist of the Yutuan Shitai was unsheathed, waving like snow, and several flashes of lightning flashed in the air, cutting a bamboo outside the tea pavilion into a peeled bamboo stick.

Under the stunned gaze of many Jianghu guests, Master Yutuan took a few more swords, cut large slices of beef and stacked them on bamboo skewers, then picked them up and walked out of the post station, and walked towards Qin Shou'an, who was stationed on the horse and stopped under the shadow of the trees on the side of the road.

"Your Highness, let's eat something first." Master Yu held the bamboo stick high.

Qin Shou'an saw the night breeze parting her curtain, and Master Yu's beautiful eyes were full of care and expectation, so she took it first, but she still felt a little funny, where did she get such a big beef skewer?

It's completely possible to open a Lanzhou beef noodle shop.

The group of people in the rivers and lakes just saw the swordsmanship of the Yutuan Master, and they were horrified, and they came out to see this scene, and just wanted to say that this little lady was really virtuous, but one of them saw the face of the Yutuan Shitai under the veil, and couldn't help but exclaim: "The master of the silent Zhaojian Nunnery, may I ask if it is the master of the Yu Tuan?" ”

The characteristics of the Yutuan Shitai are still relatively obvious and unusual.

Master Yu Tuan took off her round hat and nodded slightly.

"Sin, little damned!" The scarred man hurriedly apologized, and then slapped himself the left side of his face, and immediately slapped himself dizzy, and staggered to the ground.

Other Jianghu people also hurriedly joined together to salute, this silent Zhaojian Nunnery is only a royal temple, not a Jianghu sect, but its reputation is not inferior to those Jianghu sects, mainly because the four teachers are too perennial to be kind and charitable, and all kinds of rewards in the palace are used to help the poor, and they have excellent medical skills, and they do not charge a penny for treatment and treatment.

Such a virtuous monk, no matter how unruly the people of the rivers and lakes are, they have to maintain a little respect, especially those who are active in Longyin City and its vicinity, and they know that the martial arts realm of these masters is unfathomable.

Master Yu smiled back.

Everyone saluted and looked up, and their eyes fell on the noble son who was still on the horse, and they couldn't help but wonder in their hearts, what kind of person must be to sit on the horse so arrogantly, and the meat was sent by Master Yutuan, so calmly?

"House...... Fujun! ”

Finally, someone recognized the court clothes of the Kyushu Governor, "See the Prince!" ”

Kneeled for a piece.

The scarred man was sweating like rain, almost fainting, he didn't have any intention of doing anything wrong, he just felt that he met a beauty on the road and wanted to meet a young couple......

How do you know that the beauty is the master of the silent Zhaojian Nunnery, forget it, this man turned out to be the prince of Kyushu Prefecture!

"Get up......" After Qin Shouan finished speaking, he saw that everyone got up, but one of them had his forehead on the ground, trembling all over.

The identity of the prince of Kyushu Mansion is not so terrifying for people like Feng Yaoguang and Jiayun Fairy of the Ancient Bottle Seven Star Sword Gate, but for people who do not have the support of a big sect and a strong background, and are from ordinary rivers and lakes, it is no different from a local chicken and tile dog meeting a real dragon.

"Fu Jun, just now Haripo ......" someone next to him immediately explained, and pleaded by the way: "Please also ask Fu Jun to give an order, let our brother clean him up!" Promise that he will never dare to talk nonsense in the future. ”

"Master Yu Tuan is not unhappy...... Get up, it's okay. Of course Qin Shouan would not be so stingy, he just told bitterly:

"The elderly, children and women on the rivers and lakes will not touch them if they can. Especially women, be careful that she punches you, you may not be able to stand it, you are ruined, and it is possible to die in the rivers and lakes. ”

Although he didn't understand very well, Halibo also knew that the prince didn't mean to ask him for sin, so he stood up and nodded his head again and again to listen to the teachings.

The post chief led the horse over and respectfully handed it to Mrs. Yutuan, but he was secretly laughing in his heart, what a bunch of fools, people are holding the post station in the palace, and the identity of the official family is something you can tease?

It's a pity that these two seem to be very generous, and they didn't beat up this group of guys who made the tea pavilion into a miasma.

Master Yu Tuan and Qin Shou'an continued to hurry, Qin Shou'an ate a few bites, and then handed the bamboo stick to Mrs. Yu Tuan.

Master Yu Tuan showed a coquettish smile, but he refused to eat it in front of Qin Shou'an, but after taking off his round hat, he turned his head sideways to face him and took a small bite.

"Mrs. Shi, like us riding horses, we can eat meat in large gulps and stuff our mouths." Qin Shou'an knew that Master Yu Tuan had excellent lip and tongue skills, even if his mouth was stuffed with beef, he could easily use various parts and muscles in his mouth to chew and swallow slowly flexibly.

"Hmm......" Master Yutuan just snorted in his nose, then turned around and handed the bamboo stick back to Qin Shou'an.

He looked at the rest of the beef, stretched out his tongue and rolled it, Yutuan Shitai just turned around and saw this scene, his cheeks suddenly flooded with a light pink, and he hurriedly recited the Heart Sutra while eating the beef in his mouth.

"That's right...... Kurohime and Hakuhime, they're certainly not going to be that obedient, and I guess they're just a few miles behind us. Master Yu Tuan had some pictures of that night in his mind, and hurriedly used those two people to divert his attention.

After all, as long as they thought of them, whether it was Master Yutuan or Qin Shou'an, they couldn't help frowning, and they didn't have the heart to think about some beautiful things.

"Last time, I heard from the Mountain Lord, and she hoped that with their special physique, three great masters would appear in Sun Moon Mountain at the same time." Qin Shouan didn't have much hope for this, Hei Ji and Bai Ji's physique were indeed extraordinary, but when it came to talent, I felt that they were still a little inferior to Qin Shou'an.

Qin Shou'an still didn't have the confidence to ascend to the Great Grandmaster realm, let alone these two people who didn't want to do normal things in their minds all day long?

If they become great grandmasters, there will be no one to take care of them anymore, and Qin Shouan can't imagine what the rivers and lakes will be mixed up by them.

"Take your time...... Master is in his prime, and the status of the great sect does not necessarily depend on more great masters. Master Yu said proudly, in fact, if you really want to talk about the status of the rivers and lakes, Sun Moon Mountain is still very high.

Sun Moon Mountain and Tiandaomen have always been neck and neck in the rivers and lakes, and when the relationship between Sun Moon Mountain and the palace became closer and closer, the disciples of Tiandaomen became the rulers of Kyushu Mansion, so that the status and fame of the two were balanced again.

"By the way, why does Bai Ji call you Seventh Senior Sister?" Qin Shou'an couldn't believe it, Master Yutuan could only rank seventh in the Sun Moon Mountain?

Although the order of seniority is not ranked according to strength, this obviously shows that there are at least seven nine grades in Sun Moon Mountain who are as powerful as Yutuan Shitai.

The highest martial arts among the Seven Heroes of Wudang is not Song Yuanqiao, but among the second-generation disciples of Sun Moon Mountain, the highest martial arts should still be repainted.

"In addition to the senior sister in the palace, we also have the second senior sister and the third senior sister sitting in Sun Moon Mountain. With the deterrence of the master, the other elders will not fail to put the second senior sister and the third senior sister in their eyes, the current management of the sect is quite orderly, and it is all the credit of the two senior sisters, they work hard and complain, but they are much harder than a few of us. ”

Master Yu Tuan said with some shame, originally performed their duties, and did not think about who worked harder, but recently Master Yu Tuan often had some thoughts, as if he was disturbed by the events of that night, and he still has not calmed down, while the other senior sisters seem to take it as normal and do not have a little expectation like Mrs. Yutuan......

Such a change in his mind sometimes makes Master Yutuan sometimes wonder if he should change positions with the two senior sisters and return to Sun Moon Mountain to calm down this rift in his state of mind, so as not to become more and more obsessed with the relationship between men and women.

It's just that I didn't expect that I went to pick up His Highness's task today and gave it to her again, and the afterglow in the corner of Master Yutuan's eyes gently shrouded the handsome and young Highness, she seemed to be those little nuns in the temple.

The two chatted all the way, and when they arrived at the Silent Zhaojian Temple, it was already midnight.

For Qin Shou'an, who used to travel sleeplessly, such a journey was really nothing.

There is no moon tonight, only starlight shrouds the Kunlun Mountains and the silent Zhaojian-an that covers the foot of the mountain and breaks up along the mountain.

Qin Shou'an jumped off his horse, and his own sergeant led the horse away, and he noticed from ten miles away that the nearby guard had become extremely tight tonight.

He even saw the banner of the commander in front of the Guixian Palace, this great master who was considered "invincible in Longyin City" by his father Qin Heng, had already left the palace and was stationed nearby.

There is no doubt that the news of the mountain lord's birth has also reached the ears of the Queen Mother, and the mountain owner must be relatively weak when he gives birth, and the kung fu is no longer in its heyday.

For example, on the night when the Tang family in the county sea was destroyed many years ago, the great grandmaster who was forced to retreat by the mountain lord.

Does this also mean that the Queen Mother knows that Qin Shouan and her best friend have a child?

Hey, in fact, the mountain owner can't hide it after he has a big belly.

As for those pilgrims who protested against the Empress Dowager's monopoly of the Silent Zhaojian Nunnery, they would not go if they did not enter the temple to offer incense, and the temporary shacks had been relocated to ten miles away.

Qin Shou'an felt the vigilant and cautious gaze in various dark places and positions suitable for placing sentry posts, and he was lucky, most of them were transferred by the masters in the palace, otherwise on the day he went to court for the first time, he and Rong Baobao would probably be discovered by the masters in the palace.

"Your Highness, please come here." Master Yu Tuan still looked calm and smiled gently.

As a master of the peak of the Nine Grades, even if he faces the Guixian, he will not be in a fluctuating mood...... The only thing that can make Master Yu too moved and upset is the events of that night and His Highness in front of him.

"Please." Qin Shou'an nodded, and suddenly raised his head and looked at the northwest corner of the Kunlun Mountain Range.

Where is the cliff of watching the sea and listening to the waves, it is also the halfway up the mountain where Qin Shouan and Xiao Riyue have been together, and now in the starry sky behind it, there seems to be a nebula that is illuminated red in the vast universe.

The red light was scattered, enveloping countless stars, covering most of the sky, and even the eternal and brilliant galaxy became much dim and void under that red light.

"This red light...... It's like a phoenix with its wings spread......" Qin Shou'an said to Master Yu Tuan with some uncertainty.

"I don't think it's like ...... It is the phoenix, a good omen for the birth of our little princess. ”

Yu Tuan Shi looked too far away, and the scene in the cave of watching the sea and listening to the waves came to his mind, the mysterious bronze coffin, and the phoenix pattern composed of blood-colored crystals......
