Volume 1 Chongyang and Chongyang Chapter 20 "The History of Embroidery and Thorns"
The two larks received a new order and quickly turned to investigate.
There are few people here, if there is a little more, the layout is larger, and any wind and grass can be known in advance.
is accustomed to Cisse's quick espionage, and when he arrives in Bluestone City, he can't stretch his hands and feet everywhere, which makes the larks feel aggrieved.
However, the people selected into the lark are trained more strictly than the scouts in the army, and even the embroidered messenger, a spy agency under the imperial court, is better than the lark in terms of training, but the power of the embroidered messenger is terrifying, and he has the name of "embroidered clothes and tattoo history".
When she returned home with her aunt, Zhao Ya's face was pale and unsightly, there were still so many corpses lying on the street, and the smell of blood could be smelled at home.
"Auntie, rest assured, have a cup of tea. Zhao Que smiled.
He doesn't care, he has been in battle for a long time, and he has seen corpses all over the field, but he returned to Bluestone City, killed so many people in a row, and there was a slight block in his heart, which was gone in an instant.
Kill and kill, what else?
Tear open the envelope.
Li Mujin stood aside and watched.
Two full pages.
After reading it, Zhao Que snorted coldly, handed the paper to Li Mujian, and she read it again.
The background is quite large.
No wonder he dared to take someone to Bluestone City to kill him, he was indeed quite confident.
The rivers and lakes of the Great Xia Dynasty, there are two martial arts lists of Tiangan and Earthly Branch, and the Tiangan List is the predecessor powerhouse who has been famous for a long time and has a high martial arts realm, but whoever is on the Tiangan List is the big man among the Jianghu bigwigs, but in recent years, the Tiangan List has made the head of the big faction of the gate round, and the ten people before and after are all big heads and martial arts masters who sit on one side.
There are twelve people on the local branch list, there are seniors who are resounding in the rivers and lakes, and there are also martial arts talents with excellent qualifications and early fame.
Of course, the rivers and lakes are ambitious, and some transcendent martial artists and qi refiners, even if they are qualified to be on the two lists, they don't bother to be pointed at by the people in the rivers and lakes.
The person killed by Zhao Que is the eleventh person on the earth branch list, Gao Jin, a lone ranger in the rivers and lakes, and the realm of martial arts is the upper realm of the heavens, and the spy report introduced several opponents who were killed by him in battle, all of whom are famous figures in the rivers and lakes, and also said that Gao Jin will have the opportunity to step into the realm of peace in another ten years, and enter a few more places on the earth branch list.
This is martial arts, there is another spy report, Gao Jin is a lone ranger on the surface, and behind the scenes, he may be working for a mysterious killer organization.
It's just speculation, no evidence.
"It turns out that there are such interesting things on the rivers and lakes. Zhao Que said.
He was referring to the two lists of the heavenly and earthly branches, ten on the heavenly stem list and twelve on the earthly branch list.
"Will Zhao be interested in going to the list?"
Now that he had finished reading the spy report, Li Mujin folded the letter full of information, lit a candle, and burned it.
Zhao Que shook his head and smiled: "Gao Jin, a person who is not worthy of the name, can be on the list, it's boring." ”
"It's also the first time I know that there is such a thing as a ranking in the rivers and lakes, it's really interesting, Zhao Jiang, I start to want to be a heroine who walks the rivers and lakes with a knife!"
There are so many novels in the barracks, writing the story of the young chivalrous man who roams the rivers and lakes, among which there are female heroes who carry swords, eliminate harm for the people, and their chivalrous fame spreads, and the soldiers in the barracks do not know a basket of big characters, Li Mujin has to read and write in addition to practicing martial arts, and a few apocryphal novels have become her pastime.
Speaking of eating candy, she took out a small piece of crystal clear candy from her purse, stuffed it into her mouth, and snorted with great enjoyment.
Zhao Ya looked at her and chuckled.
Zhao Ya has a feeling of nine deaths and a lifetime, and she really feels the cruelty of swords and swords.
Life, in the gestures, disappeared incredibly quickly, like the wrinkles hidden in the corners of her eyebrows, obviously without the slightest sign, it really happened.
The southern kingdom of the Great Xia Dynasty has been peaceful for a long time, although paying taxes is a heavy burden on the shoulders, people can live, and the local government deliberately downplays disasters such as drought and locust plagues from the north, and the people of the southern country still think that in addition to the tripartite border fortress and the East China Sea Haikou, they are in a state of war all the year round, and the people of Bactria still live in a stable environment.
How would they know that the national fortunes of the Great Xia Dynasty were going downhill.
"Hungry, aren't you? you talk, I'll cook." Zhao Ya got up from the bed, with a pale face, smiled, and went to the yard to wash the vegetables.
Li Mujin hurried to help, she couldn't understand what kind of family affection it was like, however, she automatically divided the feelings she experienced in this small courtyard into family affection.
"If you want to read a few more novels about the rivers and lakes, there are bookstores in the city, how many will you buy tomorrow?" Zhao Que asked with a smile.
Li Mujin withdrew his hand from the clay pot, pressed the vegetables in the water, and soaked: "How boring is it written in the novel, why don't we go to the rivers and lakes in person?"
There are words in the words, what she means is to look for Shen Shen, who is playing in the rivers and lakes.
Zhao Que, who was counterattacked by the eight-phase dragon python, the only solution at the moment was left, and Shen Shen, who only heard his voice and didn't see him.
He smiled: "Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and we are now in the rivers and lakes." ”
"There is a sentence in the book that impresses me very deeply, the author said, yesterday I heard the falsification of the rivers and lakes, and today I watched the news ...... flesh and blood."
"It's miserable. Zhao Ya sighed.
Zhao Que laughed: "Auntie, Li Mujian, this girl, thinks that I have restrained her, she wants to fly high, and sarcastically mock me with these words!"
Li Mujian's face flushed to the point of pink: "How can there be? How can there be? You are over-interpreting! I am reluctant to leave you!"
After saying that, the pink neck turned even redder.
I was busy washing the vegetables and picking out the leaves that I couldn't eat.
Zhao Que pulled over a small bench, sat down, and watched her and her aunt gather together, tidying up, "The sage said, the spring is dry, and the fish are on the land." It is better to forget each other in the rivers and lakes. ”
Yes, he and Qi Sheng are wet with each other and wet with foam, why can't they forget each other in the rivers and lakes?
He sighed lowly.
found the old housekeeper before the Qi family, but there was no next clue, the vast Great Xia, so vast, looking for Qi Sheng, whose life and death were uncertain, was tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.
Why not, forget about each other?
Zhao Que shook his head.
He was really unwilling.
once told her that when he returned to Qingshi City, he would definitely be freshly dressed and angry, swaggering through the market, so that the people who looked down on them would gather on both sides of the street with thousands of empty alleys, cheering together, and respecting, General Zhao, Mrs. Zhao!
However, the Qi family, who didn't know Qi Sheng's whereabouts at all, he killed, the qi refiner in the old housekeeper's body attacked, and died, and the clues that were already looming were completely cut off, relying on his spy lark, even if he stopped doing nothing, and tried his best to find her, the hope was very slim.
Early the next morning.
Jun Cheng Yuping, guarding outside the gate.
When the lark came to report, Zhao Que had just suppressed the noisy eight-phase dragon python, due to the drastic loss of true qi in his body, he might not be able to maintain the current martial arts realm.
used the silk scarf prepared for him by Li Mujian, wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth, pressed it under the pillow casually, and walked out of the room.
"General Zhao, the corpse you killed yesterday has been disposed of. Yu Ping arched his hand, bent down, and reported truthfully.
Zhao Que squinted and smiled: "This little thing, you don't have to report it to me, does Yu Juncheng have anything else?"
"Uh, oh, there's a smaller matter that needs to be asked of General Zhao. Yu Ping gritted his teeth and said it boldly.
Based on his understanding of this county prince, Yu Ping belongs to the type of person who does nothing to go to the Three Treasures Palace.
"Tell me what?"
"Subordinate, I want to invite General Zhao to the cold house as a guest, General Zhao has been in Qingshi City for many days, and his subordinates have not expressed the slightest expression, they really deserve to die, it is not a pity to die ten thousand times!"
Zhao Que laughed a little louder, "Could it be that it's just you?"
"Huh?" Yu Ping was puzzled.
"At the banquet, is it just you? Is there anyone else?" Zhao Que might as well say his words patiently.
Yu Ping's waist bent lower: "There is also Miss Zhu with sleeves in Yuhua Building, and her subordinates specially invited her to play music for General Zhao, of course, it rains in spring, summer, autumn and winter in Yuhua Building, and the four girls will all be present to help Miss Zhu......"
"Only the people of Yuhualou?"
"Oh, oh, General Zhao rest assured, there is also a local first-class beauty who pours tea and wine for General Zhao, this person has a bit of fate with General Zhao. ”
Zhao Que was indeed curious, and thought to himself, could it be the woman in Langui Lane who was suspected of being Cao Meridian?
"Who is it?"
"Her name is Jin Niang, she is Qin Xuanzhi's concubine, uh, General Zhao, don't get me wrong, his subordinates have found out, this Jin Niang is still a perfect person, Qin Xuanzhi didn't touch her at all. ”
Yu Ping didn't know where to go, straightened his waist slightly, and looked at Zhao Que almost at eye level.
The general of the auxiliary country in his eyes, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, hides the murderous aura of the frontier expedition, no wonder he wears a covering face when he goes out to fight, Zhao Gouchen is too handsome as a man.
Zhao Que stopped smiling, and completely understood the power of Qingshi City, that Yuhualou was inextricably related to Yu Ping.
Being able to invite him to a banquet for Zhu Yisleeve is already a measure of "risking his life".
As for the Jin Niang, it reminded Zhao Que of being in Yuhualou that day, and there was an aura that was not much different from Zhu's sleeves.
It seems that the layout of Yuhualou in Bluestone City is far beyond what he has learned.
Zhu Yisleeve did his own tricks and feet on the "karma", and it turned out that the person in the official mansion was the county Cheng Yuping.
In this way, everything is explained.
"I killed Qin Xuanzhi, Jin Niang doesn't blame me?" Zhao Que regained his warm smile, as if he was saying homely words.
Yu Ping hurriedly bent down: "Jin Niang was forced by Qin Xuan's obscenity, so she had to obey, but Qin Xuanzhi is an old waste, and the matter of the bed has long been inadequate, Jin Niang only wears Qin Xuanzhi's daily life, and her feelings are negligent on the surface, and she will definitely not resent the general, besides, Jin Niang personally told the lower officials that the general killed Qin Xuanzhi and was the great benefactor who saved her from fire and water!"
Yu Ping knocked on the side and told Zhao Que.
If he has a need, this first-class beauty Jin Niang, will serve him comfortably, not only Jin Niang, but also Zhu sleeves are at your fingertips.
"When do you want me to go to the banquet?" Zhao Que asked with a smile.
Yu Ping was overjoyed: "It's good at noon, it all depends on General Zhao's time." ”
"It's not going to be a Hongmen feast, is it?"
Yu Ping trembled, and knelt down directly for Zhao Que: "General Zhao! General Zhao is serious! Lend a hundred and a thousand dog guts to the lower officials, and they don't dare to hold a Hongmen banquet." ”
"Haha...... Scare you, look at your timid look, get up. ”
"Yes, yes, thank you, General Zhao. ”
"Whether I go to the banquet or not, it depends on my mood. ”
Dropping these words, Zhao Que turned around and entered the house.
Yu Ping froze in place, shook his head and got on the horse, and went home. He didn't understand, did General Zhao agree, or didn't he agree?
Just looking at the results, Zhu Yisleeve and what Jin Niang ordered have already been done perfectly.
General Zhao never refused to be thousands of miles away......
