After everyone had lunch at the restaurant, the tea drinkers snoozed and snoozed, and rested until a short time in the afternoon, and the horse team set off again. Although the road was smooth, Xin Zhiping looked listless, and he had been worried about the loss of the Red Flame Spirit Stone. Tang Jiusheng smiled and persuaded: "Brother Xin, isn't it just a stone, let's snatch it back when we have the chance!"

Xin Zhiping looked at the white elm trees on both sides of the official road, and then looked at the small village not far away, seemingly a little absent-minded about Tang Jiusheng's comfort, and only after a while did he smile bitterly: "Little Brother Tang, it's easy to say, but we don't know who snatched this stone, let alone the whereabouts of this stone now, how to snatch it back?"

Tang Jiusheng looked up to the sky and laughed, "Brother Xin, you are usually such a shrewd person, how can you be so smart and confused for a while? In fact, most of the people who robbed our stones were in Luoyu Pavilion, Wanshou Residence, or the Blood Shadow Hall of Pingxi Palace, and even King Jingnan didn't have this strength. Can you lure you and the fat man away, but you haven't caught up, can this be done without the strength of the first and second grades? Can you separate the second group of people to lure out the little junior sister and the little junior brother, and you can still get out of the whole body, without the strength of the first and second grades? Not to mention that there is a hidden third group of people who stole the stones?"

Listening to Tang Jiusheng's analysis, Xin Zhiping's eyes lit up. Tang Jiusheng rode on a unicorn horse, clasped his arms in front of his chest, and smiled coldly, "You brought back the Flame Spirit Stone from the Southwest Road, except for the three brothers of the Zhang family and Li Dazhu, no one else knows about it, even I didn't know until you returned to Zhujiazhuang." There are only a few organizations that can grasp our whereabouts and have the courage to sneak into Zhujiazhuang and eavesdrop on us. ”

Shui Ruyue on the side frowned thoughtfully, and suddenly asked: "But among the group of people who came to steal stones last night, how can someone explain the swordsmanship of the Jiangdong Chu family? Could it be that these people deliberately exposed a flaw to us and let us suspect the Chu family?"

Tang Jiusheng sat on his horse, looked at the horizon in the distance, and said slowly: "The Jiangdong Chu family can barely get together, maybe they can put together a lineup like last night to steal stones, but that requires all the masters of the Chu family to be dispatched. However, in such a short period of time, it is simply too late to mobilize so many masters from Jiangdong to grab a stone, and you must be very familiar with our situation before you can start. So it's definitely not the Chu family, at most, it's just that the Chu family has a traitor. ”

Xin Zhiping hesitated for a moment and nodded in agreement. The three of them were talking, and they saw from a distance that there was a gentle river in front of the right side of the official road, which slowly poured into a large lake farther away. The fat man at the front of the horse team cheered and jumped for joy, turned around and shouted, "Old Tang! There's a lake over there! How about we go for a swim?"

Tang Jiusheng narrowed his eyes and smiled warmly, "If you don't rush to Yong'an, there are rivers and lakes, such a beautiful scenery, how can you live in it for ten days and half a month!" Tang Jiusheng suddenly remembered something, and said in a lost voice: "Yes, there is a Qingchuan Lake in Qingchuan County, Henan Province, which was given to her younger sister Qingchuan Eldest Princess Yin Mei by the first emperor, and now she should be called Qingchuan Eldest Princess!" The most interesting thing is that this Qingchuan eldest princess is still a pretty widow in her thirties.

Tang Jiusheng laughed, rode forward, and came to the fat man's side

, quipped: "Fatty, do you want to be a concubine?"

The fat man tilted his head, looked at Tang Jiusheng with a puzzled expression, and saw Tang Jiusheng with a wicked smile on his face, the fat man blinked, and laughed, "Old Brother Tang, the fat man doesn't want to be a colt! Look at what you asked, I'm afraid you didn't have any good intentions! Look at the temper of our eldest princess Yin Ruonan, do you want to be her husband? Forget it, listen to the fat man's advice, if you two are together, you will have to fight every day! No one has supported you yet!"

Tang Jiusheng smiled and leaned back, and said seriously: "Don't talk nonsense, I have two daughters-in-law, forget about Yin Ruonan's spicy goods." Let me tell you, fat man, the princess I am talking about is as beautiful as a flower, gentle and lovely, and that is an existence that fascinates thousands of young men! You are absolutely fascinated when you see it!"

When the fat man heard Tang Jiusheng say this, he was obviously a little moved, pondered for a while, clicked his lips, and asked in a strange voice: "Will there be such a good thing?" After thinking about it, he shook his head again, and laughed, "Forget it, let's leave it to your old brother Tang to enjoy it yourself! The daughter of the emperor's family, the children of our poor families can't afford it!"

Xin Zhiping also urged the horse to catch up, and laughed: "I know who Brother Tang is talking about! Fat man, you have extraordinary demeanor, Kong Wu is powerful, this beautiful princess loves heroes the most in her life, among the young people in the world, you want to ask who is the hero, but it has to be you fat! Fat man, go and meet this princess, you and her are a perfect match!"

The fat man was even more puzzled, looked at Xin Zhiping and then at Tang Jiusheng, and only said after a while: "To tell the truth, are you two guys working together to calculate the fat man and me? Everyone is a good brother, and you also know that the fat man and I have always been a real person, you don't want to fix me!"

Tang Jiusheng almost fell off the horse with a smile, "Little fat man, there is an eldest princess of Qingchuan in Qingchuan County, Henan Province, have you forgotten this?"

The fat man was so angry that he raised his hand and wanted to hit Tang Jiusheng, Tang Jiusheng laughed and galloped away. The fat man chased after Tang Jiusheng from behind, shouting as he chased: "Old Tang, you guy is simply too bad! That Princess Qingchuan is almost as old as my mother!"

Tang Jiusheng patted the unicorn horse, turned around and shouted as he fled: "I said fatty, this is your fault! Princess Qingchuan is a golden branch and jade leaf, she is only in her thirties this year, I heard that Princess Qingchuan is well-maintained, and she looks like she is only seventeen or eighteen years old, you actually dislike other people's old age!"

The fat man huffed and chased after him, "You dead old Tang, you know how to joke with me in one day! Obviously, you are interested in the eldest princess, but you make fun of the fat man! Since the old emperor gave her this lake, and it is not far from her fiefdom manor, the fat man will immediately go to protect you with a matchmaker, and if you are talented and beautiful, I will let you live in a cave tonight, how about it?"

The unicorn horse's feet were extremely fast, and Tang Jiusheng was just about to reply, but when he looked back, he had already thrown the fat man out a few miles away. Tang Jiusheng looked at the lake in the distance, and sure enough, there was a magnificent manor, and the shadow of the palace, it should be the manor of the eldest princess of Qingchuan. Tang Jiusheng took the unicorn horse and waited under the white elm tree on the side of the road for the fat man and the horse team to catch up. After a while, the horse team followed, and Tang Jiusheng said with a smile:

"I'll open the way!"

Tang Jiusheng took the lead in the front, and the horse team followed behind. In front of the carriage, there was a good horse in the Western Regions, and there was a palace beauty in her twenties riding on a horse and building a pergola in her hand.

The palace makeup beauty saw Tang Jiusheng, who was far ahead of the horse team, clamped the horse's belly between her legs, and urged the horse forward, until she was more than ten steps away from Tang Jiusheng, she stopped the horse, and asked loudly: "But Tang Gongzi and his party from the National Teacher's Mansion?"

Tang Jiusheng rode forward, came a few steps in front of the palace beauty, took the horse, arched his hand, and replied loudly: "It's Tang Jiusheng below, I don't know what this sister in front of us is doing to block our way?"

The palace makeup beauty said with a smile on her face: "The slave maid is the maid of the eldest princess of Qingchuan, named Lianxiang, I heard that Tang Gongzi and his party passed by Qingchuan, so I specially received the order of the eldest princess to welcome Tang Gongzi to the village for a while! Please Tang Gongzi come with me!" After speaking, he turned his horse's head, ran to the palatial carriage, and said respectfully: "Your Royal Highness Princess, Tang Gongzi and his party have come!"

An extremely charming voice sounded in the carriage, and said coquettishly: "Lianxiang, have you ever seen that little Tang Gongzi with your own eyes?" The voice was delicate, like a young girl, and listening to the voice already made people feel that she must be a beauty.

Lian Xiang said with a smile: "The slave told the princess that that Tang Gongzi was really extremely heroic and talented!"

The man in the car smiled: "This palace only heard that he is strong in martial arts, so I want to see him, but I didn't ask him if he is handsome." ”

While they were talking, the horse team had come to a stop a few feet in front of the carriage, and everyone was watching on horseback. The maid named Lian Xiang stepped forward and lifted the curtain of the car, only to see the eldest princess of Qingchuan, who had not seen her voice, leaned out of the car, lifted her veil, and smiled slightly, "I have heard the name of Tang Gongzi for a long time, and I can see it today, and it is indeed a young hero who is worthy of his name." ”

Tang Jiusheng flashed his eyes, this princess of Qingchuan was really born with a beautiful national color, with the appearance of a sinking fish and a wild goose, and the appearance of a shy flower in the closed moon, although she was thirty years old, she looked like she was only about twenty years old. Tang Jiusheng led everyone to jump off the horse, Tang Jiusheng bowed, and the rest of the people knelt down together, and said respectfully: "The ministers (grass people) see the eldest princess of Qingchuan!"

Princess Qingchuan smiled slightly, "Zhongqing is flat, no need to be polite, please follow the palace to the village to talk!" The carriage turned around and headed towards the magnificent manor, and everyone got up and got on the horse and followed behind. There is not much time, and it has arrived at the gate of the village. I saw a gold-lettered plaque hanging high on the door of the village, "Ejian Qingchuan Princess's Mansion".

Tang Jiusheng and the others laughed secretly in their hearts, this princess's mansion is so strange, it does not follow the rules of ordinary mansions, there is a palace in the middle, and the four sides are actually made to look like a farm manor. Although it doesn't look like it follows the rules, it doesn't have a sense of disobedience, and it's really rare!

Princess Harukawa's carriage was in front, leading the horse team into the princess's mansion that looked like a farm manor. The main road of the manor is lined with street trees, and fragrant flowers and plants are planted all over the trees, it seems that Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is not only beautiful, but also her favorite flowers and trees. The taste is not bad.
