921: The Golden Wind and Jade Dew meet
The mission traveled another day, and the next day, after turning a mountain, the front suddenly opened up.
"Lao Xu, how's it going?" Qin Wei pointed ahead and asked, the front was full of grassland, as far as the eye could see, and everywhere was green.
"What a place!" Xu Mao knew that his trip was to supervise the negotiations, and to see what the northwest was like for His Majesty, and he was paying attention to the terrain and people's livelihood all the way, and he had no time to enjoy the scenery.
At this moment he put those tasks aside and asked, "Can you get lost here?" Qin Wei shook his head: "There is so-and-so, I guarantee that you can't get lost." ”
"So...... So and so went. Xu Mao has the heart of a literary and artistic youth, but he is hidden deep in the palace, and after seeing this prairie today, he was in a commotion and out of control.
He rode his horse and rushed out, and some of the guards tried to follow, but he refused. Literary and artistic young people want to look up to the sky and howl, and they will feel ashamed when they are heard.
Qin Wei stopped the guards with a smile, and everyone watched Xu Mao disappear in front.
"Let's go!" There are still two days away from Qingjian City, Qin Wei is not in a hurry at all, chewing the jerky he bought yesterday in his mouth, putting on his felt hat, Qin Wei is like a donkey friend leisurely looking at the scenery.
"The sky is blue, the wilderness is vast, the wind blows the grass and sees the cattle and sheep." There are people grazing not far away, but the scale is not large, only a few dozen sheep.
"Lang Jun, when the Western Xia people were proud in the past, they had to be careful here." The days without enemies made Xie Ting feel very difficult, and he couldn't reflect his own value.
"Now they can't get complacent." Qin Wei couldn't help but laugh when he thought of Li Liangzuo's current life.
Western Xia was originally a fragmented state, and various forces were forcibly pinched together by the Li family, which seemed to be powerful, but the internal struggle made them unable to form a joint force, and no matter how much they developed, they could not become behemoths like the Liao and Song dynasties.
They have been fighting since history, fighting with Liao and Song like a peaceful brother, and they are also fighting internally. Li Yuanhao is actually similar to Zhao Zhen, both succeeded to the throne at a young age, and Zhao Zhen is worse than him, there is a strong woman above his head, a woman who almost became an emperor.
But the Great Song Dynasty has a strong inertia, and the Zaifu and important ministers all abide by this inertia, and even Liu E does not dare to touch this inertia easily, so Zhao Zhen was able to smoothly grasp power.
Li Yuanhao is different, he has ambitions and wants to establish a country and become king, and he did it, but it is easy to be king, but it is difficult to win back people's hearts.
Especially after experiencing two defeats with the Great Song Dynasty, Western Xia was lively. And the Liao people are obviously also staring at the Western Xia, once they find an opportunity, they will not hesitate to do it, as long as they can destroy the Western Xia, the Liao people will show their fangs to the Great Song Dynasty, and they will no longer be afraid of anything.
The three countries are three points, and when all three points exist, the situation is balanced. An hour passed, but Xu Mao did not come.
The accompanying guards were a little anxious, so they came to ask for instructions.
"Pingyang Gong, the villain wants to find Xu Duzhi." Qin Wei shook his head,
"Don't worry about it." He is the right envoy, and before Zhao Zhen relieves him of his position, he is in charge of this trip, so the guards secretly slander themselves in their hearts, but they dare not question it.
It wasn't until the afternoon that the embarrassed Xu Mao returned to the brigade.
"I just want to see more of the scenery." He defended himself calmly, just eating dry cakes and drinking water in an embarrassed manner, but let Qin Wei know that he was lost.
"Why don't you go looking for so-and-so?" Xu Mao was obviously apprehensive, and even blamed Qin Wei for not caring about himself.
"It is rumored that there is a terrible ghost here, once he finds someone alone, he will pretend to be a beautiful woman to tempt, as long as that person is hooked, she will suck the essence of the whole body...... In the end, it turned into an empty skin. "Two horsemen came from afar, but they were village soldiers.
They quietly went around from the side and returned to the team behind. Xu Mao shivered on the horse's back and said in surprise: "No." ”
"What do you say?" Qin Wei stopped talking, but Xu Mao was a little panicked, so he went to ask someone, no one knew about this legend, but Xu Mao became more and more afraid.
"Lang Jun, why are you scaring him?" Xie Ting felt that Qin Wei was playing a prank, but he didn't look much like him.
Qin Wei said in a low voice: "This is the first time Xu Mao has gone out to participate in major affairs, he is a little too excited, he is asking about relevant matters along the way, and even pointing fingers...... This is human nature, but so-and-so can't sit back and watch him slide into the abyss, so he scares and scares him. "There are all kinds of rights, once Xu Mao tastes the sweetness, who knows if he will become a greedy guy in the future, and he will want to interfere in government politics at every turn.
As an old friend, Qin Wei felt the need to sound a wake-up call for him. Xie Ting was puzzled and said, "Then how do you know that he met with a woman?" ”
"He's got a scent on him, and this road ...... There are a lot of girls in Qingjian City, and he estimated that he gave a lot of money to ask for directions. Qin Wei thought that Xu Mao was lost on the grassland and couldn't even find the direction, so a small convoy suddenly appeared and asked him to give money to show the way.
Qin Wei gloated and said: "Lao Tzu called you Wenqing, it's cool." Xu Mao came back and asked calmly, "Qin Wei, is this matter true?" Qin Wei nodded, Xu Maoze's cheeks couldn't help but tremble, at this time, the legend of ghosts and gods was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the people in the palace believed in it.
"That demon will possess a woman...... Once you succeed, you'll be far away. Qin Wei felt that he was actually not an official or a businessman, and he could support his sister, wife and children with his storytelling ability.
For example, if you go to Daxiangguo Temple to tell a story, you are guaranteed to make a lot of money. Brother is so talented, what should I do!
Xu Mao was depressed, and Qin Wei waited until the afternoon camp before pretending to be concerned and said, "That is a terrible ghost...... Maybe I didn't come. ”
"You don't have to lie to so-and-so!" Xu Mao was already a little haggard.
"I kid you not." At night, everyone except those on duty was asleep.
"Don't eat so-and-so!"
"Help!" In the exclamation, Qin Wei was the first to rush out. He was disheveled, carrying a long black knife in his hand, looking left and right,
"Who?" The shouts came from next door to him,
“…… Lao Xu? Qin Wei felt that he had really done evil. The next morning, Xu Mao hurried with two dark circles under his eyes, yawning all day.
"Lao Xu, what is your dream? It's the ideal. Qin Wei saw him staggering on horseback, worried that he would fall, so he asked a question.
"Dreams?" Xu Mao thought about it,
"A certain dream is to be able to travel all over the world and see the beautiful scenery all over the world......" Xie Ting looked unbearable...... Lang Jun, Xu Mao didn't want to get involved in political affairs at all, but he was just curious.
But you scared him like this, it's not kind! Qin Wei also felt that he had gone too far.
“…… Last night, the west wind withered the green trees, and I went up to the tall building alone, looking at the end of the world......" The song floated in, and then a caravan appeared from the side.
"That's her!" Xu Mao pointed to the caravan and shouted, and then his eyes were gloomy,
"She's a good person." Your sister! Turned out to be a businessman? Qin Wei began to guess that it was a female prostitute, who would have thought that it was a caravan, the northwest needed supplies, and the court would spend a lot of money in Qingjian City every year, and the merchants naturally flocked to it.
The leader of the caravan was a woman with some dark skin, but bright eyes and a resolute look.
"Zeng Yue has seen a nobleman." The woman dismounted and saluted, then glanced at Xu Maoze. Qin Wei bowed his head and said, "It's polite." The woman saluted at Xu Maoze,
"Yesterday, the nobleman left without permission, and the slave was worried that you would get lost, so he sent a lot of people to look for it, but unfortunately he didn't find it...... "Lao Xu, Lao Xu, it turns out that you ran away without permission?"
Qin Wei didn't know what Xu Mao was running, and when he saw his twisting appearance, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded. Xu Mao pinched the corners of his clothes, lowered his head and said: "I see that you are reluctant to dry cakes when you eat, so you can't bear to eat ......" You still know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade?
Qin Wei was very happy in his heart, so he was ready to watch the excitement. Zeng Yue said with a smile: "There is a lot of dry food, but I don't dare to waste it in such a place, so try to save it." Now that you've returned, say goodbye. Xu Mao raised his head and asked, "Where are you going?" Zeng Yue said: "I'll wait to go to Qingjian City." Xu Mao didn't know what he thought, and blurted out: "We too, let's go together." "Where can outsiders be mixed in in the mission, Qin Wei feels that this guy is dizzy.
Zeng Yue glanced at Qin Wei and said, "Thank you, noble, it's just that the slave is not good to bother, so I will leave." She rode her horse back, and the man behind her was tall and burly, looking at her with reverence in his eyes, this is a powerful woman.
"Qin Wei ......" Xu Mao looked pleading: "She likes to sing, you can make a song, ah!" "This man actually fell in love with a woman?
Qin Wei couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and then he thought of the chamberlains and palace maids who spent their days together in the palace, as well as those high-level chamberlains who had residences outside the palace and married like normal people, and he was relieved.
Although they have lost their dick, the man's mind is still there! Xu Mao was probably afraid of what Qin Wei said, so he didn't dare to get too close to that woman.
But with Qin as a key word, it is obviously tempting. O iniquity! Qin Wei felt that he was really evil, and the people around him were looking at him, mostly expectantly, and he wrote very few poems, but they were basically classics.
He pondered for a moment, with a more melancholy look in his eyes, and chanted: "The clouds are tricky, the flying stars spread hatred, and the silver man is dark...... As soon as the golden wind and jade dew meet, they will win, and there are countless ...... in the world If the relationship between the two is long, how can it ......be in the twilight of the dynasty" Xu Mao was in good spirits, stretched out his hand to ask for pen and ink in a panic, Qin Wei's eyes passed through the caravan and looked to the northwest.
Xu Mao beat his horse and left, shouting all the way: "Zeng Yue." Zeng Yue turned around, and Xu Mao said excitedly: "There is a song here, give it to you." "As the saying goes, an old house burns fast when it catches fire, and Xu Mao is like that.
"What word?"
