Chapter 16: The Sin of Desire

Shen Chaixing defeated Zhang Aniu in an unexpected way, and everyone in Liu Mansion was overjoyed. Liu Chen offered silver taels as promised, and the Dongting Gang kept the promise and retreated.

Before leaving, Chen Tianding invited Shen Chaixing to a corner, and the two exchanged names. Chen Tianding praised from the bottom of his heart: "As his name suggests, the little brother will be a superstar who illuminates the martial arts in the future." People often say: If you don't fight, you don't know each other. Although you and I met today on the occasion of fighting, I fell in love at first sight with talents like little brothers, can you forget my identity as a 'water thief' for the time being and make friends?"

Shen Chaixing thought to himself: "My father was called a 'blood thief' in his early years, and he killed people like hemp, but he was the closest person in the world, and you are simply a good person compared to him." He smiled and said, "Are you friends?" Be brothers, no problem. ”

Chen Tianding was overjoyed, and immediately invited Shen Chaixing to go to Dongting to help Panhuan play, Shen Chaixing was a young man, of course, he liked to play lively, but he was worried that his relationship with King Wu's treasure would bring disaster to the Dongting Gang. Although Chen Tianding felt disappointed, he was not reluctant. took out an object from his arms, it was a Dongting Gang Master token, handed it to Shen Chaixing, and said: "Within eight hundred miles of Dongting, if you take out this thing, someone will definitely answer it." ”

Shen Chaixing happily took it, and the two parted and said goodbye. Chen Tianding returned to Dongting, while Shen Chaixing still took a boat to Jingshi in order to find an opportunity to escape overseas. It's just that the treatment they receive is very different, and the Liu family all looks at them differently, and Liu Jiaqi and Xiaolian are even more favored. The scenery is infinite along the way.

Capital. Jinyi Guard Command Post.

Jiang Huan grinned in pain, although he applied the best gold sore medicine of "Deyuantang" and bandaged it tightly, the wound still oozed blood until it soaked the official uniform of the flying fish. Jiang Huan couldn't help but curse "Mei" in a low voice, if he was around, how could he use himself to take the risk and sneak into the Lan Mansion? Fortunately, the trip was worthwhile, the word "Momen" was enough to make Lan Yu's head fall to the ground, and the best thing was that this crime would not appear in the official documents of the government, let alone any evidence, the murderous emperor and the killed Lan Yu would be silent about it. Thinking of this, a cruel smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The clues of "King Wu's Treasure" were personally pursued by his son Jiang Yulin, but for some reason there is still no news to this day.

was hesitating, and his subordinates reported that Childe was back.

Jiang Yulin appeared in front of Jiang Huan in a slightly embarrassed manner, and Jiang Huan's first feeling was that "charm" should not come back.

Capital. Liangguo Mansion.

It's the beginning of the lights. After listening to Lan Yu's long memories, Lan Yue was dumbfounded, and Fu Youde was silent. For a long time, Ying Guo said: "Since the death of the crown prince Zhu Biao the year before last, the saint has been moody and unpredictable. I thought that Zhu Yunwen, the new emperor's grandson, would be able to improve after being the crown prince last year, but this is not the case, and the saint obviously has new concerns. It's best to plan ahead for Satsuki's affairs. You and my brother keep a low profile in everything, or you may be able to survive and live out your old age in peace. Recently, Satsuki should not run to the barracks anymore, so as not to give people a handle. Then he sighed again: "If Queen Ma is still alive, maybe ••••••"

Lan Yu arranged a dinner, but Fu Youde was preoccupied and left.

Lan Yu arranged a family banquet in the side hall, and there were only two brothers during the banquet. Lan Yue has been hanging out a lot lately, and she doesn't often eat at home, so she is afraid that her brother will blame her, so she keeps pouring wine and food for Lan Yu. Lan Yu obviously loved this younger brother very much, although he was so preoccupied that he couldn't swallow it, he drank a few glasses of the wine that Lan Yue poured. Looking at his tall younger brother, thinking of Lan Yue's childhood, Lan Yu was full of emotion. I thought of the marriage of the blue moon and asked if there was a woman I liked, but the blue moon was hesitant, and finally said that it was all up to the eldest brother. Asked about "Momen" again, Lan Yue said: "After listening to the words of the eldest brother, I am quite interested in Momen, and there is nothing bad about joining it." I just don't know if I'm waiting at home, or should I go to the door?"

Lan Yu said: "Recently, there are often Jinyi guards following you when you go out, and you will definitely cause trouble when you go to Jiangyin." Fortunately, it is close to the date agreed by Xu Moran, so it is better to wait and see what happens. Don't go out if you have nothing to do lately, cultivate yourself at home, and read more books. Then he went back to his room to rest.

Lan Yue returned to her small courtyard in the west, and Xiqing came to serve, but was blocked by Lan Yue, telling her to rest early and go back to the study to read by herself.

When I saw the headache, I suddenly remembered that Li Jinglong said a few days ago that Qinhuaihe had opened a new "sleeping wind building", with an elegant and fresh style, and the powerful people in the capital were all eager to buy it, and if you wanted to book a wing, you had to book a room several days in advance. Li Jinglong had already set a room, and as soon as Lan Yue thought about the date, it was tonight, so he sneaked out. At this time, it was getting late, everyone had rested, and the house was quiet. Blue Moon walked lightly through the corridor, and when she entered Xiqing's room, she suddenly heard a light laugh.

Blue Moon was curious, so she stopped. The maid's room is not big, it is a room for two people, and there is a soft conversation and laughter from Xiqing and Xining in the same room. Xining is a maid who serves his wife, slightly chubby and white-skinned, and is one year older than Xining.

I only heard Xi Ning smile and said: "Let me guess that the person you like must be Chef Wang! Chef Wang's craftsmanship ranks first in our Liangguo Mansion." Follow him, and you can have delicious food every day. ”

Xiqing scolded with a smile: "Phew, if you think about it, there are only three cooks in our house, one of whom is a white case, and one is a layman." Chef Wang can stand in our house because our master misses the old. I think that Chef Wang once saved the master on the battlefield, and he had no family, so the master raised him. Don't be greedy and think about Chef Wang!"

Xi Ning said: "Neither Chef Wang, nor Xiao Zhao of the stable, the third son is younger than you, who is that? Could it be my Lan Zhong?"

Xiqing said: "Go to sleep, you have to get up early tomorrow, your Lan Zhong is not robbed!"

"Smack!" Xi Ning slapped his thigh and said, "I know who you like!" and then said word by word: "You like young master!"

Xiqing didn't refute this time, and the room suddenly fell silent.

After a long time, Xiqing said quietly: "I like young master, it's different from you like Lan Zhong." I like the young master because I hope to follow the young master forever and serve the young master. In the future, when the young master gets married, I will serve the young grandmother in the past, and the young master has a child, so I will serve the young master. If I can follow the young master for a lifetime, I will be content. ”

Xining no longer made fun of her, and persuaded: "Don't worry, the young master is getting married, and he won't want you." Although the young master is arrogant, he never takes a stand against our subordinates in the mansion, and I will help you beg him one day. ”

Xiqing sighed and said: "Recently, I have always had the same dream, in the wilderness, the young master walked alone to the far north of the extreme North Pole, and the people in our whole house were calling him, the young master looked back, but he couldn't see or hear anything, and continued to walk north alone. ”

Xining said: "Silly girl, as the saying goes, dreams are dead and alive, and dreams are reversed." Don't think about it, go to bed early. ”

There was no movement in the room. Blue Moon stood for a long time, and for some reason suddenly lost all interest, so she turned back.

In the next few days, Blue Moon was not out of the door, just studying and practicing boxing at home.

On this day, Li Jinglong sent a letter to make an appointment to have a small gathering in the "Sleeping Wind Building" in the evening, and the letter said that a mysterious person designated to see Blue Moon, and if he missed the appointment again, he would break off the friendship.

Lan Yue knows a lot of people, but because he is arrogant, there are only a few people who get close. Xu Da's son Xu Huizu of Wei Guogong is one of them, and Li Wenzhong's son Dong Guogong Li Jinglong is also one. Xu Huizu is two years older than Lan Yue, and he cares about Lan Yue very much, but Xu Huizu is more mature and respectful, and he doesn't fool around with them after marriage, and Lan Yue respects him more than he is close. Li Jinglong and Lan Yue are the same age, Lan Yue is cold and arrogant, but Li Jinglong is always giggling, he is the best playmate, so the two get very close.

Lan Yue wanted to excuse herself, but after thinking about it, could it be that the "Momen" was worried that the Lan Mansion was being monitored by the Jinyi Guard, so Xu Moran sent someone to arrange it, so she readily agreed.

In the afternoon, as soon as he arrived in Shen, Blue Moon walked there. I thought that if it was an appointment with Momen, if I went early, I could avoid Li Jinglong and talk in private. When he went out, he happened to be met by Lan Zhong and asked where to go, and Lan Yue told him in passing.

The Qinhuai River where the "Sleeping Wind Building" is located crosses the south of the capital, there are many ways to walk from the Blue Mansion to the Qinhuai River, the Blue Moon walks the Zhongzheng Street to the west, crosses the Shengping Bridge to the lower street entrance, turns south to the Pishi Street, and then crosses the Qinhuai River from the Wende Bridge, and turns right under the bridge to be the "Sleeping Wind Building". The route selected by the Blue Moon is the most lively, with people coming and going along the way, and there are many shops, which is a prosperous scene. Zhongzheng Street is famous for its jewelry, while Pishi Street has the most snacks. Blue Moon walked all the way, although she had gone through it a thousand times, she was still full of interest.

When I walked to Pishi Street, I suddenly found that the "Zhang Ji Ban Duck" I frequented did not have a stall today, but was replaced by a fortune-telling stall, and an old Taoist sat behind it. A small flag was hung on the stall, with the inscription "Xi knows the past, and the iron mouth should be true".

Lan Yue's heart moved, and she recited these words a few times, "Xi knows the past, the iron mouth should be true, and Xi •••••• should be true!"

Could it really be him?

At the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Buddhism and Taoism two geniuses came out one after another, Buddhism to Zen Buddhism "Ji Tan Zongxi" and "Pu An to Fu" as the most, Daomen Zhang Sanfeng and Xi Yingzhen are a generation of masters, Zhang Sanfeng self-created Taijiquan, sword, Xi Yingzhen martial arts is unfathomable, the rivers and lakes rumored that Xi Yingzhen Cave Taoist true scripture cheats, and both Confucianism, Botong three teachings. You Jing "I Ching", Yin and Yang Mathematics, Strategy, Divination. It's just rumored that his person has gone to Xiangcheng Lingying Guan Feather Transformation Immortal ten years ago, how can he appear here? Thinking of this, he was puzzled, so he stepped forward.

Lan Yue came to the front of the stall, and the old man who had been sitting slowly stood up, and Lan Yue was taken aback.
