The enemy's northern pass on the eastern front was a trade pass where the north and the south signed an agreement, and the flowery scenery around them became more and more barren and boring, and the horses' hooves stepped on the barren weeds, muddy and dry land, and walked slowly.

"If you go further, you will be able to reach the enemy's north pass in about half a day. Li Changnian pointed to the distance and said, several people had already changed into the red robes and iron armor of the Tiance Army, and they encountered many caravans coming and going along the way, all of them gave the most kind smile to the five people.

"I don't know if the mission has arrived...... Ji Jiu's heart can be described as overturning, Li Changnian glanced at him and said, "It's okay, if this little county lord really empathizes and doesn't fall in love, I invite you to drink, and you pay the bill." ”

Liu Zijin glanced at him and said, "Lao Li, you are enough, you are so poisonous every day, be careful of being struck by lightning one day." ”

"Maybe it's really going to be struck?" Li Changnian tilted his head and looked at Liu Zijin with a smile.

"You don't really plan to trade your life for your life, I haven't asked you before, but I'm really curious now. Liu Zijin asked, and the four of them looked at him in unison.

"You all know that I am an orphan, it was the sect master who brought me back to the mountain, when I was a child, because of the surrounding environment, I can be said to be a demon king of the mixed world when I first arrived in the Sword Rain Tower. Selfish and manic, the elders didn't think highly of me. Kendo had to have a sincere and precipitated pure heart, and at that time I was almost full of swearing, and my mouth was much more poisonous than it is now. Li Changnian couldn't help but look at Lin Hongxing as he spoke.

The latter nodded, and said helplessly, "At that time, I had just arrived at Jianyu Tower, and I was scolded and cried by him on the first day. ”

Li Changnian looked ahead and continued, "That was when I was eight years old, although I didn't have a heart that could really practice swordsmanship, but my kendo talent was extremely high, and I was regarded as an heir by the sect master. The sect master once walked down the mountain for a long, long time, and every day I would stand at the mountain pass and wait for her to come back, and after a while, she brought back a little girl. She looks very weak and has no talent for swordsmanship, and is said to be the daughter of an old friend of the sect master. At first, I didn't feel anything, but every day she practiced swordsmanship, she would hide far away, looking at me with admiration, and I slowly got used to her presence. It wasn't until one day when she was not in the old place and watched me practice swordsmanship with a smile that I went to ask the sect master that I knew that she had a very serious illness. ”

Li Changnian paused and continued, "Later, every time I lost my temper, she would cry and run to me to comfort me, not so much that she comforted me, but that I kept coaxing her not to cry. Until one day she told me that I must settle my heart well, because she can't be by my side forever. At that time, she was like a dark room light to me, illuminating the direction of my youth. It is precisely because of her that you can see me today, not Li Changnian, who is a sword practitioner who does nothing and spends his days in the Sword Rain Building. ”

Ji Jiu asked cautiously, "There is no other way than to exchange life for life?"

Li Changnian shook his head, "When her mother gave birth to her, she was hit by the enemy's palm, and this palm completely destroyed her martial arts foundation, and her internal organs could not escape the doom. Only with the empowerment of the powerful True Qi of the Immortal Realm can it be possible to save her. ”

Yun Fan, who had been silent for a long time, couldn't help asking, "Don't you really regret it?"

Li Changnian pursed his lips and smiled, shook his head and said, "The question of not regretting is what I have heard the most, and my answer has always been only two words, no regrets." ”

The stream was clear and cold, Zhao Shuyun took the water bladder and raised his head to take a big sip, his cold teeth chattering.

"Miss, what are you doing here, in case you get a stomach problem, what can you do?" Chunhua snatched the water bladder and handed it to the servant next to him to warm it.

Zhao Shuyun pouted and said, "I heard from the book that people in the rivers and lakes are very informal, and I am afraid that when I see him again, he will dislike me for being pampered and will not take me to travel the rivers and lakes." ”

Chunhua crossed her waist, and when there was no one around, she and Zhao Shuyun were already like close friends in the boudoir, she stretched out her slightly chubby finger and poked Zhao Shuyun's head, and her tone was distressed, "My stupid county lord, where in this world is there a man who is willing to abandon such a good-looking woman as you?"

Zhao Shuyun's eyebrows were worried, her mood became more and more restless as the mission got closer and closer to the enemy's northern pass in the past few days, no matter how generous she was on the surface, she hoped that she could see his face the moment she first arrived in the southern country. Although she hadn't seen him for ten years, she didn't think she wouldn't recognize him.

She stood on tiptoe, looked south, and her thoughts spread thousands of miles.

Chen Jingchi, as the champion who stood out in the imperial examination last year, won the favor of Gu Beisha, the prime minister of the left side of the court, and at the same time, he was the servant of the criminal department on the fourth rank of the official residence, and this young man who had entered the court from a peaceful step made the world envious.

This time, he served as the leader of the embassy, and the old fox in the Pingjing officialdom saw the clues, Dong Shubai, the secretary of the Criminal Department, was dying of old age, and Chen Jingchi was qualified to replace him in terms of ability and ambition, but only in terms of qualifications. If he leads the team to the southern country, the qualifications will almost be made up, then he will undoubtedly become the best candidate for the next criminal department Shangshu.

And the year of the crown of the criminal department of the book?

Such an achievement will undoubtedly make him the brightest new star in the court.

Speaking of his appearance, many people in the court talked about him, because such a scholar who looked delicate and expensive, he really couldn't see any reason for Gu Chengxiang's blue eyes.

"Team Leader Chen, the county lord and her subordinates have been going to fetch water for half a day, do you want to urge it?"

The person who knelt on the ground and spoke in a respectful tone was the current Longxiang Wei Commander Wang Foxiao, and his eyes looking at Chen Jingchi were not only respectful but even a little awe-inspiring.

"It doesn't matter, which side we are victorious on, let those southerners wait, although I am also looking forward to their respectful faces, but there is no hurry. The young man held a book in his hand, his tone was sarcastic and arrogant, and his seemingly soft eyes were as sharp as knives, and his words were also harsh.

"Uncle Huang meant to let the mission negotiate with the southern side of the country, not to put on a high-minded posture like Team Leader Chen. Zhao Shuyun walked out of the woods, and his words were far from the appearance of the little woman who missed her sweetheart just now.

Chen Jingchi put down the scroll, saluted respectfully, and said, "Since it is His Majesty's order, the minister must keep it in mind." ”

Zhao Shuyun didn't look at him, and got into the carriage with the support of Chunhua.

The cold expression instantly disintegrated, and he smiled at this Tong Chunhua and said, "How is it, was I very domineering just now?"

The latter cheered Ying He and said, "Yes, yes, the county lord was really domineering just now!"

The mighty convoy of the mission continued to move forward, and Zhao Shuyun opened the curtain with a look on his face and looked ahead.

North and south, thousands of miles.

The distance that I couldn't dream of when I was young is at my feet, slowly pulling in.
