Last month, it snowed for most of the month in the capital, and it just melted a few days ago.

As soon as the snow melted, Xia Chengyi asked her brother to let her out of the house, and she was really bored in the days when Mei Yuanchen left.

Although the eldest princess's mansion is Xia Chengyi's private residence, it is guarded by the elite of the sentry camp inside and outside, and without the emperor's order, she will never let her mansion take half a step.

Although it is Xia Chengxuan's protection of his sister, isn't it a kind of imprisonment?

"Yiyi, you are a phoenix. There are too many people outside who want to catch the phoenix and harm the phoenix, and only by trapping you can they not harm you. Thinking of his brother's words, Xia Chengyi couldn't help but feel warm and painful.

The warm thing is that although my father and mother are gone, at least my brother takes care of him.

The pain is that the carefree life of the family together can never come back, and I am afraid that I will have to spend the rest of my life under this kind of close supervision.

"I thought that being the lord of the county in the palace was already a caged bird and a fish in a trapped tank, but I never thought that that such a life was no longer possible. ”

Hearing Chu Zhong say that his sister hadn't eaten for two days, Xia Chengxuan rushed straight to the eldest princess's mansion in the morning.

"Brother, I want to go out!"

As soon as he entered the door, Xia Chengyi begged with a wail.

In the end, he couldn't beat his sister and let her out of the house.

However, he didn't dare to let go of the security at all: he had to go to the eighth street of the inner city, and he must be accompanied by the five masters of the Eldest Princess's Mansion and a team of the Divine Sentry Battalion.

With the experience of the Jaw King's Mansion and the Rui family, Xia Chengyi also understood his brother's painstaking efforts, and led more than 100 elite guards out of the mansion.

Along the way, steaming white steam wafted from the snack stalls on the street, and all kinds of fragrances came to his nose, but Xia Chengyi had no appetite at all.

Sure enough, "if there is no heart, there is no desire", the ancients did not deceive each other.

"Until now, I don't know why my brother suddenly became the emperor of Dahua! My father is gone, and the Jaw King's Mansion is already a yellow flower of tomorrow, but I really don't know what kind of god-turning skills my brother has used, and he can turn the world upside down and turn dangerous eggs into golden stones!"

"It's just that although my brother has become the emperor, I don't see him half happy, and Xiao Ling always says that he has a lot of worries and no fun, and he is so busy that he almost forgets to sleep and eat. Now, not only is my brother trapped and locked up in state affairs and the palace and cannot be free, but even I have to be restrained everywhere. Brother Shicai came to see me, and although he tried his best to pretend to be cheerful, he smiled too reluctantly, and I think he has been troubled a lot lately. ”

"Since waking up, Brother Yuanchen seems to have changed a different person. He has something in his heart, and he does not want to speak it to me. I know that the revenge of Meifu is too heavy and heavy in his heart, and if he can't revenge it, I'm afraid that he won't be happy in this life. My brother and I wanted to help him, but we didn't know where to help. ”

Although he was seriously injured but forced out of the house, although he wanted to see the two babies, he was afraid that he also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to go to the rivers and lakes to find out the news of the enemy. The people sent by my brother and Zhenwuguan to protect them secretly have blocked more than a dozen attacks by thieves along the way, and it seems that the bad guys who want to harm him are very big, and they are not even afraid of the imperial court or their brother! Lu Jianxing has not come to report Yuanchen's brother's movements for several days, and I don't know where they have gone now?"

"Sister Yun has a deep affection for the Mei family, if it weren't for her this time, I'm afraid that Brother Yuanchen wouldn't be able to live. Originally, I shouldn't have been wary of her. It's just that she's with Yuanchen

My brother was my companion all the way, traveling two or three thousand miles, and I don't know if anything will happen. Hehe, how can I still be jealous of this!"

Xia Chengyi rode on the horse, thinking nonsense all the way.

"Princess, clay man. Wisteria drove the horse closer and called softly.

She knew that the "clay man king" Yu Xia Chengyi had a special significance, and there were two or three hours a day in the house in a daze with the mud puppet, and after passing by here, she cried out.

"Ahh

Wisteria stuck out her tongue and said with a smile: "Princess, next to it is the shop of the 'Clay Man King', do you want to go in and have a look?"

She said as she stretched out her finger and pointed to the "Clay Man" sign in front of her.

Xia Chengyi looked in the direction of her finger, only to realize that she had unconsciously driven her horse to the "old place", and felt a sense of emotion for a while.

"Princess, are you going?" Seeing that she didn't speak for a long time, Wisteria asked with a smile.

She is Xia Chengyi's personal maid, and she is much more daring than the rest of the house. Xu is because she is by Xia Chengyi's side, she is also contaminated with some of the master's brutality, not only in front of other maids and servants, but also by Xia Chengyi's side, she has never been very concerned about etiquette and rules.

is also because of her casualness, among the hundreds of maids in the house, Xia Chengyi likes her the most, although she knows that she is a little domineering in her daily life, she rarely scolds and restrains her, and she regards her as a sister a little bit in her heart.

Xia Muchao and his wife have passed away, and Chu Zhong is the only one who can be a relative in the house. In addition to Chu Zhong, she is closest to Wisteria.

"Let's go in and have a look. ”

"That's great!"

Hearing Yi Qilin say that Yan Qinhe was willing to compete with the Wind Dart Bureau and Suxin Palace for the position of the leader of the martial arts alliance, Yun Xiaomeng couldn't help but smile and said, "In this way, it can be expected." With Senior Yi and Senior Yan in charge of the Martial Arts League, I believe that the life of the major sects on the rivers and lakes will be better and better!"

"Alas, the Cloud Palace Lord has thought about it. Yan Qinhe said with a smile, "I'm already an old bone, and I don't want to care about the facts on the rivers and lakes." That is, the things that Brother Yi said to me made me feel at ease, if I want to say that I am the deputy leader of the alliance, hehe, there are not many descendants of the Yan family who are officials in the court, and I really shouldn't get involved in the martial arts league too deeply. The master of the Cloud Palace is a young master, and the Suxin Palace is a century-old faction, so it is most suitable for you to assist Brother Yi. ”

The Yan family is not a pure sect of rivers and lakes, Yun Xiaomeng saw that Yan Qinhe's words were sincere, but he was not false and wronged, so he did not postpone it, and said with a smile: "I am better than Zhang Suiguang and Xu Xiaoyi as the deputy leader of the alliance." ”

Yi Qilin saw that her face was different, and he seemed to be quite pointed, so he asked softly, "Did the Cloud Palace Master find something?"

Yun Xiaomeng listened intently to the Quartet, and did not notice that there was someone near him, but replied: "When Lord Mei's family was tragically destroyed, the people of Suxin Palace settled near the Anxian Salt Transport Mansion. After they went to the Jinzhou garrison barracks to bring in the rescue troops, they encountered the interception of the Nine Halls on the way. ”

The situation was serious, and Rao was she didn't dare to say it to death, after all, the people of Suxin Palace had not seen the people of the Nine Halls slaughtering the Mei Mansion with their own eyes.

"What? it's really him!" Yi Qilin raised his gray eyebrows and shouted in a low voice.

Although he also doubted Zhang Suiguang

, but no evidence was found. At this time, when Yun Xiaomeng said it, his heart was still full of anger, and he was almost unable to restrain himself.

Yan Qinhe also tightened his eyebrows after hearing this, and after muttering for a while, he said to Yun Xiaomeng: "Cloud Palace Master, this matter is not trivial, can Suxin Palace have clear evidence? ”

The hall master of the Nine Halls is Zhang Suiguang, and this matter has slowly spread in the rivers and lakes.

However, Zhang Suiguang is not only the hall master of the Nine Palaces, he is also the help of the Salt Gang.

The Salt Gang is the largest gang in the world, and in terms of strength, even the Xu family is slightly inferior. The Nine Palaces and the Salt Gang are undoubtedly the biggest forces in the martial arts, and the Imperial Wind Dart Bureau, Suxin Palace, and the Yan Family together are not opponents.

What's more, Yan Qinhe was unwilling to put the Yan family in such a dangerous grudge.

In his opinion, Mei Siyuan was a first-class official, hundreds of people in the Mei Mansion were slaughtered, and the imperial court learned of such a secret report, and there was no reason to sit idly by.

"Senior Yan, how could Zhang Suiguang fall into the handle of such a thing. Yun Xiaomeng sighed softly, "They didn't use the usual ghost hand, soul hooking rope and dragon bone Yue, Suxin Miyahara wanted to start with the sword soldiers to investigate, but unexpectedly, the blacksmith master of the entire Jinzhou City was killed." ”

Yi and Yan glanced at each other, both revealing obvious concern. None of them are power-loving people, and this time they stood up to compete for the position of the leader of the martial arts alliance, because they were worried that Zhang Suiguang and Xu Xiaoyi's ambitions would be too big, and the martial arts league would become a murderous weapon in their hands. Judging from Yun Xiaomeng's words, it can at least prove that Zhang Suiguang's ambition is definitely far more than the rivers and lakes.

"The rivers and lakes must not be enemies of the imperial court, otherwise, it will inevitably be bloody. Yan Qinhe Zheng Sheng said Yi and Yun Erren, "This martial arts alliance, what do we say to prevent Zhang Suiguang from getting involved in the position of the leader of the alliance!"

Walking into the "Clay Man King", the person in charge of the hall was a middle-aged man in sackcloth.

Seeing that a distinguished guest was coming, the man in charge hurriedly greeted him, bowed down and said, "Honorable guest, please come in!

Xia Chengyi went out, and there were more than 100 riders behind her, and at this moment she got off the horse in front of this shop, and these more than 100 people made this left close to an airtight air.

Where had the man in charge seen such a battle, he was shocked and frightened, and his hands and feet trembled a little for a while.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here to see your clay figurines. Xia Chengyi walked into the shop and whispered to the man, "I remember that the original head of the hall was an old woman, why did you change today?"

She has been here four times, each time she came, the guard in the hall was the mother-in-law of the clay king, and she didn't see her today, so she was a little surprised in her heart, so she asked.

From these words, the man in charge heard that the woman in front of him was actually a regular customer in the shop, and tears flowed down for a while, and he choked softly: "I am tired of respecting the concept of the mother, but her old man has passed away for more than ten years, and the small one is filial piety."

"The old lady in charge of the hall has also passed away. When she came here the last time, she was still in good shape and in good spirits, how long has it been since Xia Chengyi's heart sank, and her mood was lower.

Since she couldn't see the "old man", Xia Chengyi had no interest in staying in the shop, and after asking Wisteria to buy all the clay figurines here, she walked out lightly.

Come often. As soon as she came out of the "Clay Man King", she saw the plaque of the Frequent Inn.
