Midsummer June.

The sun rises high, and the hot and dry temperature slowly rises.

Thirty miles east of Shuzhou City.

As far as the eye can see, the mountains and forests on both sides of the official road are endless, and the emerald green grass and trees cover the mountains like a thick quilt, and only a small part of the black and gray mountain rocks are exposed.

Standing on a slightly lower hill, Zhao Gao overlooked the winding official road below.

Behind him, there were more than a dozen dead soldiers wearing black suits and black iron masks.

These more than ten dead soldiers are the team of Luo Net, and they are all seven-grade cultivators.

In addition to the dead soldiers, there was also a woman in a white gauze skirt on a large tree in the distance.

Shi Luan, although Qin Wei did not let her join the net, but in order to ensure that this mission was foolproof, Qin Wei temporarily lent her to Zhao Gao.

The surrounding mountains and forests are silent, and as the sun gets higher and higher, the sun becomes more intense, and the temperature becomes hotter and hotter.

Suddenly, a small bird that had been gray flew from the forest and landed in front of a dead man.

"My lord, here we are!"

The dead man looked at the gray bird, stepped forward, and bowed in worship.

Zhao Gao calmly overlooked the official road below.

On the winding official road, a convoy slowly approached.

In the middle of the convoy was an elaborately decorated carriage flanked by a dozen horseback guards.

The convoy moved forward, and the guards were already soaked with sweat in the hot sun.

Inside the carriage, Qin Gong was wearing thin brocade clothes, a little upset.

The weather was hot and the carriage was bumpy, and it had only been a day, and he felt extremely uncomfortable.

"Your Highness, do you want to take a break?"

The middle-aged man who was driving the car asked softly.

Qin Gong took a deep breath and said, "Forget it, let's wait until Xinning Mansion is resting." ”

There is no wind in this mountain, and even if you find shade in the trees, it will not be much cooler, but it will delay the journey.

At this moment, Qin Gong suddenly heard a "whoosh" sound.

Before he could react, the middle-aged man who was driving the car suddenly shouted: "Be careful, enemy attack!" ”

A sharp arrow came at him and struck one of the guards in the chest, knocking him off his horse.

"Whoosh!" The sound continued, the powerful arrows kept flying, the screams rang out one after another, and several more guards were shot off their horses.

"Your Highness!"

The middle-aged man exclaimed, and Qin Gong's face in the carriage changed greatly.

He clenched his sword, his eyes shining coldly, and sat quietly in the car.

Someone was trying to kill him!

Is it a bandit or a rebel?

No way!

It must be the king of Xin'anjun!

Qin Gong's mind turned, and he instantly locked on the identity of the attacker.

But even if he guessed that the attack was planned by Qin Wei, he didn't make any moves.

Although he is the king of the county, he only has a five-grade cultivation, which is not bad, but it is useless.

Outside the carriage, the screams were endless.

Immediately after that, the sound of the clanging of swords rang out.

Through the gap in the curtain, Qin Gong saw that a warrior dressed in black was wantonly slaughtering his guards.

A white figure was grappling with the leader of his bodyguards.

The commander of the guards was the middle-aged man who drove the car for him.

As the king of the county, the commander of the guards beside him is a nine-rank martial artist, and it can be seen from this that his status is far beyond that of ordinary county kings.

You must know that Qin Wei's guard commander was Lin Zhan, just a six-rank martial artist.

The figures of the two of them kept staggering, and suddenly the leader of his guard shook his whole body, and then fell straight to the ground.

A pale blade pierced the guard leader's eyebrows, and a snow-white figure held the blade, and crystal blood dripped from the tip of the sword.

The blazing sun, the crystal beads of blood emitted a bright fluorescence.

Inside the carriage, Qin Gong looked at the snow-white figure, and a chill suddenly rose in his heart.

His captain of the guard is dead, so he!

He took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes.

However, the expected blade did not come, and after a cacophony of sounds, the surroundings gradually returned to calm.

As if nothing had happened.

Qin Gong waited for a long time before slowly opening the curtain.

He looked around, and the whole person was stunned for a moment.

"King Xin'anjun!"

"This king knows that you don't dare to kill me!"

"Hahaha~~"

He laughed wildly, as if trying to dispel the fear in his heart by laughing.

However, after laughing, there was a look of hatred in his eyes.

"Damn, King Xin'an should die!"

"Qin Wei, you're an idiot, come on! Kill the king! ”

"Qin Wei of the straight lady thief!"

He stood in the carriage and cursed.

The hideous look is not as elegant as before.

Long!

He stopped.

He looked at his surroundings and gritted his teeth.

At this time, the official road around the carriage was empty, and his guards and horses were all gone.

Even the horses he was pulling were taken away.

Nothing was left but his carriage and blood on the ground. Even the corpses and broken swords were taken away.

"Damn!"

He kicked the carriage in a frenzied rage.

Now he was in the middle of nowhere, with no horses and no guards, so he could only walk alone.

Although he was furious in his heart, he still forced himself to calm down.

Maybe he should be glad that Qin Wei didn't want to kill him, and left him a life.

After calming down, he entered the carriage to pack up his softening, and then slowly left along the official road.

On the other side of the mountain, Zhao Gao looked down on his lonely figure.

The stone luan next to him was like frost, and he was snow-white.

"Let's go!"

Zhao Gao said softly.

Then he turned and left.

The task has been completed, as for Qin Gong's future, it depends on him.

It should not be easy for His Royal Highness the pampered and noble county king to travel 3,000 miles back to Kyoto.

……

A day later.

Still on that official road, several figures came on horseback.

At this time, the carriage on the official road had disappeared, probably taken away by passers-by, but the dark red blood stains still remained on the ground.

Lu Baifeng rode on the horse, looked around with his head raised, and the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned.

Ji Qian looked around, his face a little solemn.

"Young City Lord, the two sides have been fighting for a lot of time, and the guards of the King of Nanchang County have almost no power to resist, so they were killed by the other party!"

"Although there are few traces of battle left, it can be seen that the other party did not dispatch the innate martial artist."

"There should be a ninth-rank martial artist and a dozen seventh-rank or eighth-rank martial artists."

Ji Qian analyzed.

Lu Baifeng smiled, "The power that the King of Xin'an County has is not as simple as it seems. ”

"Hehe~~"

He chuckled.

"Young City Lord, what should we do next?" Ji Qian asked.

"Do nothing, continue to follow the king of Nanchangjun! I'm sure he's going to have a lot of fun along the way! Lu Baifeng said with a smile.

He won't help Qin Gong, he prefers to look at Qin Gong's embarrassed appearance.

Because the more embarrassed Qin Gong was, the stronger his hatred for Qin Wei became.

Sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.

is what Lu Baifeng wants.

And now Qin Wei and Qin Gong are fighting one after another, and he secretly poked and poked it.

From the beginning of the agitation of Qin Gong, to the present, the two sides are fighting.

Let Lu Baifeng feel like he is playing with everyone in the palm of his hand.

It was a refreshing feeling that filled his heart with a sense of accomplishment.

……

In the city of Shuzhou.

Li Ru is gone, and Yuwen Chengdu is also gone.

Qin Wei personally sent them out of Shuzhou City.

Looking at their distant figures, Qin Wei suddenly felt a little sad about parting.

After coming to this world, Yuwen Chengdu has been by his side, and it can be said that he has the most contact with the chess pieces.

And Li Ru is his most effective assistant, giving him advice and helping him with chores.

Now that the two of them left suddenly, Qin Wei actually felt a sense of loneliness.

Back in the courtyard, Qin Wei instructed Xiao Shunzi: "Clean up, tomorrow we will go to Daxue Mountain to escape the heat!" ”

In this way, early the next morning, Qin Wei also left Shuzhou City and came to the Daxue Mountain in the west of Shuzhou.

The heavy snow is steep in the east and slow in the west, high in the west and low in the east. The western slope is mostly a wide and gentle plateau and a faulted intermountain basin, and the climate is high and cold; The eastern slope is a deep-cut mountain valley with a clear vertical distribution of climate.

The mildest season in Daxue Mountain is June and July, the temperature in the mountain is only about 20 degrees, cool and pleasant, it is the best summer resort in Shuzhou.

Moreover, there are wild ancient tea trees on the snowy mountain, the leaves of the new sprouts in the first spring are thick and wide, the fragrance is special, the wild fragrance is with orchid fragrance, the strength is thick, the slight bitterness is sweet and sweet, and it is majestic and elegant.

This tea is a pure thousand-year-old wild-type ancient tree, and it is extremely difficult to pick, and the yield is very low, which is very precious.

After a few days of traveling, Qin Wei came to the foot of the Snow Mountain.

On the snow-capped mountains, the cold light is shining, and the mountains and streams are pure.

Although Qin Wei was still standing at the bottom of the mountain at this time, the altitude was actually very high, and the sun was still shining, but the temperature had dropped a lot.

Qin Wei naturally didn't go to the top of the mountain, and when he went to the top of the mountain, he didn't escape the heat, but suffered from the cold.

There are many mountain villages and towns at the foot of this mountain, which look very hard, but there is also a different scenery.

Qin Wei asked people to find a fairly spacious courtyard and settled here.

Living under the snowy mountains every day, playing chess and practicing swords, although the days are a little boring, but the victory is leisurely.

He doesn't care about the world, as if he has been cut off from everything in the outside world.

The only contact with the outside world may be that Xiao Shunzi will leave here from time to time to buy drinks and food from the outside world.

Qin Wei's bitterness is naturally not eating chaff vegetables.

Time passes slowly.

Unconsciously, the autumn mood became intense.

Qin Wei lived in seclusion in the Great Snow Mountain for several months, and then moved to Danlian Mansion in southern Shu.

Danlian Mansion is very beautiful, Qin Wei passed by twice and still remembered it.

The city is more beautiful in autumn, the buildings in the city are located on the hillside in the form of steps, and the fiery red maple forests are like flames, dyeing the entire city of Danlian red.

Qin Wei lives in the city of Danlian Mansion, travels around the mountains and rivers every day, has everything he needs for wine and food, and lives an extraordinarily happy life.

And when Qin Wei was in seclusion, Dali's situation was also constantly changing.

First of all, within Shuzhou, with the departure of Li Ru, the new Shuzhou political envoy and the envoy took office successively, and the new three divisions of the yamen gradually restored the people's livelihood in Shuzhou.

In Long'an Mansion, Shen Wansan has gradually taken over the industry in the hands of the Qi Dynasty, not only has he obtained a large amount of money and grain in a short period of time, but also has a real way to make money, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a cornucopia.

After obtaining money and grain, Shen Wansan first provided 3 million taels of silver and 300,000 stone grain and grass to the Dusi Yamen to fill the holes in Shuzhou due to the war.

Of course, this silver and grain and grass are not given for free, any changes in the Yamen of the Dusi will appear on Qin Wei's desk, it doesn't matter whether Qin Wei sees it or not, what matters is Liu Yuanrang and Ji Fei's attitude.

As for the political secretary and the judge, Qin Wei has never intervened, and those newly appointed officials have never seen Qin Wei, they only know that Qin Wei, the king of Xin'an County, is in Shuzhou, but they don't know where it is.

Of course, Qin Wei doesn't care about anything.

Although the others are in the Danlian Mansion, he actually controls the Longan Mansion.

Relying on the Qi Dynasty's industry in Long'an Mansion, Qin Wei provided Shen Wansan with some special things many times.

For example, firing glass, saltpeter to make ice, firing cement, earth steelmaking and so on.

Although Qin Wei only remembers these things in general, it doesn't matter, as long as he tries a few more times, he will always succeed.

All he had to do was provide an idea, and the rest could be left to the craftsmen.

As for whether it can succeed or not, it doesn't matter, it is best to succeed, and if you can't succeed, you won't lose anything.

Shuzhou gradually recovered from the war, and at the same time, the rebellion in Yunzhou was also suppressed, but the war in Tianzhou has not yet calmed down.

Lan Yuehou can be said to have won a hundred battles in Yunzhou, but he seems to be a little passive and slacking off, stop today, rest tomorrow, more than four months have passed, and he has only captured the land of five mansions, you must know that there are sixteen mansions in Yunzhou.

That is, in five months, Lan Yuehou has not yet laid down one-third of Yunzhou.

The undercurrent in the Kyoto court is also becoming more and more radical, and the battle between King Ping, King An, and Qin Jun is becoming more and more intense, but the battle in the court is not a sword and a sword, but a variety of conspiracies.

However, none of this seemed to have anything to do with Qin Wei, and until Qin Gong returned to Kyoto, Qin Wei could no longer be left alone.
