The cold of winter has gradually passed,

The mountains are full of quenched green, with occasional hints of saffron.

Cangshan jade bamboo, flowing clouds and water sleeves.

The stunt of this Qingcheng Mountain is also amazing.

The viewer is a blue-clothed Taoist with a long beard and a top view, who is already in his fifties. However, he was in excellent spirits, his steps were steady, and the yellow hanging tassel behind the long sword was like flowing water with the sword in his hand, and the spike also floated out wonderful flowers.

Swinging a sword is beautiful and refined, more like flowing water Zen, beautiful and without losing the martial arts.

The six swordsmen behind the Taoist Master were also serious and meticulous.

The Taoist raised his sword and slid upstream, and the clear water was far away.

The women also studied seriously, and none of them made mistakes.

Zhao Ling nodded, very satisfied with the performance of these maids.

Nothing can be achieved overnight, these maids learn seriously, he sees it. Even if they are free, they will seriously practice a few more times.

Yan Ji, who accompanied him, saw that he was satisfied, so he nodded.

The women bit their lipes in unison.

Walking through the front hall, turning into the apse, and taking a walk, Zhao Ling said: "I didn't expect Mr. Big to accept Qingfeng as a disciple, but it was his creation." ”

"Yes," Yan Ji smiled slightly, accompanied as she walked, and said, "Your Highness, there is a sentence, the slave doesn't know whether to say it or not!"

"Say, the reward is the reward, don't call yourself a slave every time, I have already submitted your matter to Jian'an, and the emperor's decree will come soon. ”

"Yes," the woman paused slightly, bowed and bowed, and said: "The concubine wants to say, that Miss Xu, His Royal Highness does not allow her to come with her, she came, and she is still watching, she looks very sad, why don't you go down and see her?"

Seeing that his face became gloomy, Yan Ji lowered her head and said, "A thousand gold is easy to get, a confidant is hard to find, and the slave maid can't compare to her no matter what." ”

"In this world, where do there are so many pleasant things. Life is unsatisfactory, nine times out of ten, probably talking about people like me. If you see it, it's difficult, it's better not to see it. Let your uncle talk about her!"

Infatuation is always ruthlessly hurt.

Without further words, Yan Ji accompanied Zhao Ling into the apse.

Mount Qingcheng is still quiet and peaceful.

The Taoist temple is located in the green mountains and bamboo sea, and the steps up the mountain are not visible at a glance, but on this step, there will be a guard on duty every dozen steps.

These guards newly sent by the Dragon God Guard to protect His Second Highness are meticulous.

On the high pavilion of this apse, Zhao Ling looked at the dragon god guards below, these were the forbidden troops of the capital, which were directly commanded by the emperor.

"The guards we've recruited have all been replaced by the Dragon Guard. Yan Ji explained

Zhao Ling said to himself: "It seems that my father is not at ease with me. ”

"General Chen has already been tested, he is very vigilant, I'm afraid it will be difficult to pull him in,"

"Because of the situation, when I don't have a chance to win, they don't choose to take sides easily. That's why my father sent him. ”

There was a figure on the steps in the distance, dressed in a blue robe, with a sword hanging from his waist, holding the long sword in his hand and slowly walking up the steps.

"Lord Changshi is here. ”

Relieved, Zhao Ling turned around and went down the pavilion.

......

Changshi Xu Changshan slowly walked into this Qingcheng Mountain, winter is about to pass, and the cold in the south has passed most of it. The incense is burned in the temple, and the white mist is wafting.

When I entered the view, I saw several maids constantly putting large and large pieces of incense into the incense burner.

Duan Wang Ye came to incense, except for it

In addition to adding oil money and offerings, he also bought a lot of incense, and burned all the incense burners in this front hall.

Although there were some strange actions, General Chen, the chief of the guard, did not stop or check, but just asked for a bench at the gate of the temple and sat there quietly.

Seeing Xu Changshan coming over, he also greeted him, said some clichés, and opened his mouth and closed his mouth without leaving two words: "Emperor's order." ”

This kind of person is a typical two-faced, the emperor asked him to look at Zhao Ling, and he is also the set of rhetoric that is left and right, aiming not to offend both sides.

Xu Changshan also smiled at this.

The two sides exchanged a few polite greetings, and Lord Changshi said goodbye to General Chen and entered the main hall.

When I raised my eyes, I saw Xu Yuyan constantly making wishes and praying in front of the statue of the Ancestral Law.

Stood there silently for a while, waiting for her to finish praying before she greeted her: "Yuyan, why are you here, aren't you infected with the wind and cold, so you can have a good rest?"

Yingying, a slightly haggard woman, walked over, gave a salute and said, "Uncle, I've been a little restless lately, and I always feel that something is going to happen, so I'm ......."

"Well, let's go get some rest. Interrupting her, Xu Changshan walked to the apse. Seeing her like that, he stopped again, turned his head and said, "Yuyan, there will be gains and losses in everything." Sometimes what people want and what they end up getting may not be the same, so they have a choice. ”

The beautiful woman looked at him in amazement, bit her lip, and nodded.

When he went out, Xu Changshan said: "No one will force you to do what you don't want to do, so the choice in the future is still yours." Your Highness is not hiding from you, it's just that you ask for too much, and he can't give it to you anymore!"

"I don't want anything!"

"Also, the position of the queen is not for you. ”

The woman bowed her head.

"Let's go rest first, and after a while you might have to go out. ”

"Go out?" Xu Yuyan was puzzled, but Xu Changshan had already walked out and didn't say anything more.

......

Several maids in the apse were doing their own work, and when they saw Xu Changshan coming in, they did a good job and continued to work.

These women all have a skill, nominally the maids beside the Second Highness, but in fact they serve as guards, although they do their own work, they have been keeping an eye on the surroundings and are meticulous.

Xu Changshan never said anything about Zhao Ling's arrangements.

Those who achieve great things are not informal.

The same is true for employing people.

When she came to the bedroom where she was resting in the apse, Yan Ji took the initiative to avoid it, and only Zhao Ling and Xu Changshan had a secret talk.

"I just got the news that Liu Tingxuan of Xiyong was killed, and Cao Feng of Qingzhou and Lian Kang were also involved. ”

A burst of surprise made Zhao Ling smile, this straw was really right! But then he frowned and asked suspiciously: "Qingzhou? Lian Kang? How can they get together?"

Touching his beard as if in deep thought, after thinking about it, Xu Changshan said: "It is said that Qingzhou and the Flying Eagle Division jointly designed Liu Tingxuan, pushed him to the twenty and twentieth on the list, and then Cao Feng challenged Liu Tingxuan." And the Flying Eagle Division was also involved, and there were many people who saw Lian Kang mixed in the Dajian envoy group, and when something happened, the people of Xiyong found out!"

"Isn't this a bit unreasonable? It is reasonable for the Qingzhou people to kill Liu Tingxuan, but why did the Flying Eagle Division kill Liu Tingxuan? It seems that Liu Tingyu's trick is also full of flaws!"

Shaking his head, Xu Changshan said: "Some people think so about this matter, but the common people don't know, Liu Tingyu was chased and killed by the Flying Eagle Division not once or twice, and the common people don't think that Liu Tingxuan will not be chased and killed by the Flying Eagle Division!

out, but it may not be a good excuse to kill people with a knife. Especially since he now occupies Sanqin, Xiyong's attitude towards this matter is crucial. Now that Lian Kang has appeared in Jincheng and Liu Tingxuan has died in Jincheng again, even if Liu Ba wants to make peace, I'm afraid he won't be able to!"

"It makes sense, this is an opportunity, I didn't expect him to be so scheming, and he actually attacked the west with such a move! The movement of taking down Sanqin is much greater than assassinating Liu Tingxuan! However, now that he has turned over, then I can also go to find him!"

"Well, it seems that he is not only willing to be a second son, I'm afraid he has even greater ambitions!" Xu Changshan reminded: "Maybe in the future, he will also be our enemy!"

Zhao Ling disagreed: "The enemy of the enemy is a friend, if we can't even save our lives, what will we talk about?" I wanted him to help me do it before, but that would be too dangerous." But now if he can take over Xiyong, then as long as he supports me, I can gain a firm foothold in Meizhou, and there is hope for the next things!"

"Well," Xu Changshan nodded, and finally said: "If you send someone to contact him, I think it's best to let Yuyan go, this is also our attitude, and if Yuyan is willing or not, let her make her own choice!"

"She must be willing, this thing can't go wrong, and being able to kill Liu Tingxuan shows that Liu Tingyu's sense of revenge is very strong, if he thinks I'm lying to him, then I'm afraid even you can't stop him, uncle!"

Looking at Zhao Ling's firm and unhesitant expression, Xu Changshan nodded silently.

Jian'an, Xianglai Gambling House.

In recent days, Mr. Zhu's injuries have not healed, and when he sits there, he closes his eyes and recuperates, occasionally coughing a few times.

Wang Kuian was quite concerned, and made a special trip to get two ginseng and sent them to Mr. Zhu today.

On the way here, Wang Chongming reminded Wang Kuian that it was not that Mr. Zhu was seriously ill, but that all the people he brought were folded in the enchantment of the chessboard of heaven and earth, and he could not see anyone alive or dead. said that he was cremated, but it was still a man of the Wen family, and when he died, he had to give an explanation, right? In the end, there was no way, Wen Haoxuan spent a lot of silver.

This incident was caused by Mr. Wen, and he couldn't explain it to Wen Haoxuan, so he could only pretend to be sick.

But Wang Kuian didn't think so, and only said one sentence: "How much is two ginseng worth?"

Wang Daochang didn't bother to say it, he did the job of inspecting the three cases, and the monthly salary he received from the household department couldn't even afford this half of the ginseng, how much money did you say?

Since the last time Xianglai was smashed by Dongyi Taibai, this business has become cold, and sometimes the guests are not satisfied at night!

Wang Kuian was puzzled, the field was smashed, why is Xianglai's business so bad, and Guilai's business so hot!?

It was Wang Chongming who gave him an analysis, saying that although this auspicious came to be smashed, he let Dongyi Taibai knock 2 million taels, but what about Guilai? Directly let Dongyi Taibai knock 8 million taels, and he also had to compound interest every month. It's just that I didn't copy all the expensive old bottoms!

That's why you have to work hard to make money!

I must have found a lot of famous masters in the past few days, and their tea is free, and the price of melon seeds is also reduced. Even the box fee may have shrunk a lot!

Now that Song Yu is gone, the field has been smashed again, and only by taking more business can he make money and pay the silver!

It's just that in this way, it feels a bit of vicious competition, and in the end I vomit blood!

Is this really the case?

The two sat quietly in the room and waited, when they saw Wen Haoxuan and Liang Nantian walking in.

Wen Gongzi, who has always spoken little, actually said the first thing when he entered the door was:

"I'm!"
