The delicate nanmu barrel was steaming, Zhao Yan soaked in the hot water, his whole body was soft, and the soreness on his body was also relieved a lot! After running around for so many days, it was so pleasant to be able to take a hot bath comfortably! But he was comfortable, but he was uncomfortable!

Lu Xiqiao ordered the people in the firewood room to boil a large pot of hot water, and instructed the people to bring out their most cherished Nanmu bath bucket for Zhao Yanfa to use. This Nanmu bath bucket is Luxi Bridge's personal property, and he doesn't know how many beautiful women play in the water and have a hearty time in it. The inside of the bath bucket is actually full of a faint fragrance, and the fragrance is even stronger after pouring hot water, but I don't know if it is the wooden barrel itself or the smell of the beautiful woman's rouge gouache?

In order to show the importance of Zhao Yanfa, Lu Xiqiao specially selected four young maidservants to serve him. Although Zhao Yanfa seems to be a proud master, he is shy like a child in front of several maidservants. was stared at by the four of them, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to take off his clothes. They had to be driven out of the door first, and only after the door was closed tightly did they take off their clothes and enter the bathtub.

As soon as he buried his body in, four maidservants pushed the door in again, holding a towel in their hands, holding fruits, holding clothes, and one wanted to rub Zhao Yanfa's back. Zhao Yanfa took a bath in his life, how could there be so many people watching, he felt very uncomfortable, so he asked them to put down their things and drove them out again!

Finally, there was no one, Zhao Yan was foaming comfortably, and suddenly heard someone knocking on the door. Zhao Yanfa was a little impatient: "You guys go get busy, I don't need others to serve me in the bath!"

There was a hearty laugh outside the door, and then he said, "Brother Zhao, I'm a magpie!"

Hearing that it was the sound of a startled magpie, Zhao Yanfa breathed a sigh of relief and called him in. After the magpie pushed the door in, Zhao Yanfa hurriedly asked him to close the door, which made the magpie laugh and said: "Don't look at Brother Zhao's free and wild on weekdays, it turns out that he is also afraid of people behind him!"

Zhao Yanfa smiled: "It's not that I'm afraid of people looking at it, it's just that being seen with a bare butt is indecent!"

Shocked Que stepped forward, Zhao Yanfa saw the white cloth wrapped in his hand, and a trace of guilt flashed in his heart: "I'm sorry Brother Shocked Que, just now you showed mercy to my subordinates, but I hurt you!"

"It's okay Brother Zhao!" "I know the situation better than you at that time, if you don't repel me with a knife, you will definitely not be able to dodge that move, and I can't control it at that time, I will definitely stab you!

Zhao Yanfa suddenly sighed: "You are all broad-minded people from all over the Lu Mansion, I'm really ashamed!"

"No, no!" Jing Que hurriedly said: "My master also likes Brother Zhao's personality very much, and I also admire your character and martial arts in the middle of the night, and we also want to ask you for advice when you are not busy!"

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be!" Zhao Yanfa was flattered, but his face was not surprised: "I don't dare to ask for advice once, but it's okay to learn from each other!"

After taking a bath, Zhao Yanfa put on the new clothes brought by the maidservant, shaved the stubble off his cheeks, combed his messy hair, and tied a cyan square scarf. He was already handsome, and with a little dressing, that filthy little Hanako turned into a beautiful young man with a dashing demeanor in the blink of an eye! Even the few maidservants who served him in the bath just now saw it, and their eyes were full of love!

After breakfast on the second day, Zhao Yanfa met with Jingque and Jingque in the middle of the night to learn martial arts in the back garden of Lufu. Even Mingyue was pulled by the magpie to watch.

The newlywed woman of Luxi Bridge, Liu Qianqian, the former Oiran of the Swallow Building, was walking along the long corridor next to the back garden surrounded by several maidservants. She is wearing a pink dress today, decorated with elegant chrysanthemums, painted with light makeup, long hair tied up in a bun at the back of her head, and her cherry lips are slightly red. Maybe after getting married, she was moistened by the rain and dew of Luxi Bridge, she was a little less amazing, but a little more mature charm, and she looked more and more charming!

The sound of crackling fights came into Liu Qianqian's ears, and she followed the reputation and just saw Zhao Yanfa and Jingque learning martial arts. She stared at Zhao Yanfa not far away with a pair of beautiful eyes, and asked the maidservant girl beside her: "Who is the handsome young man who competed with the magpie? Why haven't you seen it?"

The maidservant replied: "Mrs. Qiyu, that young man is the little hero Zhao who was messing around at the wedding banquet the day before yesterday!"

"Is it him!" Liu Qianqian's face was surprised and happy, and the look in his eyes was complicated: "Sure enough, people rely on clothes, I didn't expect that dirty little Hanako to be such a handsome young man, go, follow me to see!"

The group walked towards Zhao Yanfa and them!

Because the magpie was injured in the tiger's mouth, he was also afraid of accidentally injuring Zhao Yanfa, and it was inconvenient to make Emei stab, so he used two branches with branches as weapons, and Zhao Yanfa also used a wooden knife. This time, the two of them were for a fight, and they didn't make a killing move, and they fought peacefully for more than 20 rounds without a winner!

Mingyue was on the side, her eyes were staring at Zhao Yanfa, and she never let go of her every move.

The magpie held the branch in his hand and stabbed at Zhao Yanfa. Zhao Yanfa stepped on the ground with both feet, stabilized his body, and with force on his arms, he swung a wooden knife and struck at the magpie. Shocked magpie suddenly laughed, stretched out his right foot and stepped on the ground, and turned to attack Zhao Yanfa's weak defense!

Zhao Yanfa smiled at the corner of his mouth! The magpie knew that his strength could not fight Zhao Yanfa, so he used his flexible advantage not to fight with him! Who knew that Zhao Yanfa's speed was also very fast, and at the moment when the magpie changed his attack, he also turned the wooden knife downward, held two branches, and picked it up, and the branch came out of his hand, and spun a few times in mid-air before falling to the ground!

"What a great martial arts!"

A beautiful voice like a warbler's cry sounded from the side, and Zhao Yanfa, who was listening, chuckled in his heart, trembling all over, and followed the prestige, it was Liu Qianqian!

Liu Qianqian stood aside, graceful, staring straight at Zhao Yanfa with a pair of beautiful eyes, her slender eyelashes blinking up and down, and her cherry lips slightly opened, which was very moving!

Mingyue, Jingque, and saw Liu Qianqian in the middle of the night, and hurriedly saluted: "Madam!"

Zhao Yanfa looked at the beautiful and moving Liu Qianqian, stunned on the spot. Mingyue hurriedly stepped forward, pinched his arm, and said, "Brother Zhao, this is the new lady of the Lu Mansion!"

Zhao Yanfa woke up like a dream, and hurriedly saluted: "I've seen Mrs., I've been bothered a lot, I hope I'll forgive me!"

Liu Qianqian took a few steps forward, approached Zhao Yanfa, and a pair of beautiful eyes flowed: "I saw Zhao Gongzi once at the wedding banquet the day before yesterday, at that time, Zhao Gongzi was ragged and unkempt, I didn't see your appearance clearly, I didn't expect to see it today, Zhao Gongzi is also a handsome young man with a good demeanor!"

As she spoke, she looked Zhao Yanfa up and down. But I saw that he was not only handsome, but also physically strong. Observing the handsome young man at such a close distance, he couldn't help but beat faster, and his cheeks were crimson!

It was also the first time for Zhao Yanfa to be so close to such a beautiful woman. The faint aroma on Liu Qianqian's body came into his snort, making him a little uneasy, standing straight in place, not daring to move!

Liu Qianqian looked at Zhao Yanfa for a long time, and the atmosphere in the entire back garden was very dignified. Mingyue stood aside and saw Zhao Yanfa's arm trembling slightly, it was late autumn, but there were beads of sweat dripping from his neck. She coughed dryly and said, "Madam, I'll take them to the back mountain to learn, don't dare to disturb Madame's rest!"

Liu Qianqian came back to her senses all of a sudden, and said to Mingyue with a smile: "It's okay, you just continue to practice, I'll go back to the room, startled, in the middle of the night, learn from Zhao Gongzi!"

The magpie and the middle of the night shouted in unison: "Yes!"

Liu Qianqian also left the back garden with a group of maidservants, and did not forget to glance at Zhao Yanfa when he left: "Zhao Gongzi, I'm sorry for you!"

In the evening, Zhao Yanfa went back to his room to rest after dinner. Lying on the soft and comfortable bed, he was still uneasy. His mind is full of pictures of Liu Qianqian, beautiful eyes, cherry lips, and face, as soon as he closes his eyes, Liu Qianqian will stand in front of him!

Zhao Yanfa didn't sleep well all night, and finally fell asleep, but in his dream, he was still the peerless Liu Qianqian!

......

On the second day, early in the morning, Zhao Yanfa, who was still asleep, was woken up by the sound outside the door. He put on his clothes and went out, only to see the people of the Lu Mansion carrying wooden boxes and moving them out of the house.

He followed his men to the gate of the house. There was a carriage parked outside the door, and there were seven or eight tall horses, and Mingyue was directing his subordinates to move the wooden boxes into the carriage. Shocked magpie and midnight are also dressed in fancy clothes and stand outside the gate of the house!

Zhao Yanfa walked over and asked, "Is this going far away?"

Jingque nodded and said, "The master is going to Qingzhou to meet an old friend, and it may take more than ten days, and I will go with Sister Mingyue in the middle of the night, Brother Qingfeng, Brother Bie Zhi and Ming Cicada!"

"Is Mrs. Liu going with you?" Zhao Yanfa blurted out, and then felt that something was wrong. But the magpie didn't hear anything wrong, and said: "Madame is a daughter, and it's a long way to Qingzhou, so I'm afraid I won't be able to stand the bumps, so I won't go!"

Zhao Yanfa's heart sank, and said: "Then since this is the case, I will have a lot of inconvenience in the house, so I will go to find the seniors and retire first!"

Before the magpie could speak, Lu Xiqiao also walked out, followed by three teenagers, two of whom were about the same age as Zhao Yanfa, and the other looked a little younger.

Lu Xiqiao stepped forward, held Zhao Yanfa's hand, and said: "Brother Zhao, you can't go, I went to Qingzhou this time to visit an old man, my horses are all thousands of miles of good horses, if the horse is fast, I can come back in less than five days, and it's not too late to go when I come back!"

Zhao Yanfa said: "There is a lady in the house, I am afraid it will be inconvenient for me to live here!"

Luxiqiao shook his hand and said that there was no inconvenience, and after some persuasion, Zhao Yanfa had no choice but to agree to stay for a few more days.

After Lu Xiqiao and his party left, Zhao Yanfa went back to the room. After a while, a maidservant girl came to ask Zhao Yanfa, saying that the kitchen had made some small snacks, and his wife invited him to try them. Zhao Yanfa found a reason to excuse himself, but after a while, the maidservant brought a snack, saying that the lady knew that Zhao Gongzi was busy and didn't dare to disturb anymore, so she sent some snacks and asked Zhao Gongzi to try them.

Zhao Yanfa asked the maid to thank his wife for him, and he didn't taste the dim sum on the table. After a while, the maidservant said that there were fruits from the south, which could only be eaten in the inner courtyard of the palace, and invited Zhao Yanfa to go, but Zhao Yanfa still did not go. In the evening, another maidservant came to invite Zhao Yanfa to dinner, but Zhao Yanfa still excused himself and said that he didn't want to go, so he asked the kitchen to deliver the food to the room.

After dinner, Zhao Yanfa lay on the bed, with a lot of thoughts in his heart!

The knock on the door sounded again, and a maidservant girl shouted outside: "Zhao Gongzi, I'm bothered, have you rested?"

"Is there anything wrong?" Zhao Yanfa asked listlessly.

The maidservant said: "Mrs. has heard that Zhao Gongzi is a person in the rivers and lakes, and he is well-informed, and he knows that there is a peerless treasure knife in his hand, and it just so happens that Mrs. Zhao also has a peerless treasure knife in his boudoir, and I want to invite Zhao Gongzi to go and watch the knife and comment on it!"

Zhao Yanfa was shocked and said, "It's so late, please go back and tell Mrs. how about Zhao go to see the knife tomorrow?"

The maidservant girl continued: "Madame said, the material of the treasure knife in her boudoir is rare, and it is radiant when it is unsheathed, and it can only be seen in the middle of the night, and I ask Zhao Gongzi not to shirk it again!"

After grinding for a while, Zhao Yanfa really couldn't resist the maid, got dressed and went out, and followed the maid to Liu Qianqian's boudoir.

A bright moon in the night sky shone with a white light, and it looked very cold in this courtyard. Zhao Yanfa found that there seemed to be a lot fewer people in the house, so he thought that Luxiqiao went to Qingzhou to take it away, and he didn't care.

When she came to Liu Qianqian's room, the maidservant shouted: "Madam, Zhao Gongzi has been invited!"

"Please Zhao Gongzi come in!" Liu Qianqian's voice came from inside the house. The maidservant pushed open the door and invited Zhao Yanfa to come in, but closed the door at the back.

As soon as the door closed, Zhao Yanfa's heart directly rose to his throat. looked around, but Liu Qianqian was nowhere to be seen. The candlelight flickered in the room, sandalwood burned on the table, and the whole room was filled with the aroma of talking!

The crimson tent next to the bed fell, and through the tent, a shadow could be seen lying inside. Zhao Yanfa swallowed a mouthful of saliva and shouted: "Madam, Zhao Yanfa has arrived, where is the treasure knife?"

The shadow behind the Luo tent chuckled: "Zhao Gongzi don't be impatient, Qianqian, let Zhao Gongzi see the peerless treasure knife!"

A slender jade hand stretched out from the tent and gently opened the tent, Liu Qianqian slowly walked down from the bed, but Zhao Yanfa was directly stunned!

Liu Qianqian spread her long hair and poured it on her shoulders like a waterfall, and her face was full of red without makeup. What shocked Zhao Yanfa the most was that she was only wearing a light pink gauze dress on her body.

The light veil only covered her position from her chest to her thighs, and her jade neck, fragrant shoulders, collarbones, arms, and slender and white thighs were all exposed, and she was barefoot. The light gauze is almost transparent, and the covered parts are also faintly visible, and the fair skin is particularly charming against the background of the tulle!

Zhao Yanfa's face turned red, and Liu Qianqian smiled, full of charm: "Will Zhao Gongzi and Jingque also blush when they compete in martial arts?"

Zhao Yanfa was stunned and said, "The martial arts competition is all dressed in clothes, and I don't blush!"

"What a flamboyant guy! Vain Xiqiao also said that you are a righteous gentleman!" Liu Qianqian chuckled: "The concubine is also wearing clothes!"

Zhao Yanfa's mouth was a little dry, and his eyes tried not to look at her. But like Liu Qianqian, how many men will not be tempted when they see it? Wearing this tulle can't cover all this mature lady, and the looming feeling is the most charming!

Zhao Yanfa hesitated for a long time before he spoke: "Madame invited me to come and watch the peerless treasure sword, where is the treasure knife now?"

Liu Qianqian smiled slightly: "The treasure knife is in front of Zhao Gongzi, didn't Zhao Gongzi see it?"

Zhao Yanfa's breathing was a little short: "There is only Mrs. in front of me, and there is no treasure knife!"

Liu Qianqian laughed again: "Zhao Gongzi is pretending to be deaf and dumb! Didn't you hear that the treasure knife that the concubine said was the concubine herself!"

Zhao Yanfa couldn't hear it, he was just scared. Standing in front of such a charming stunner in the world, no one will be afraid!

Liu Qianqian smiled: "The concubine's body is the treasure knife, and the clothes on this body are the scabbard of the treasure knife, and the scabbard Zhao Gongzi has already seen it, so please ask Zhao Gongzi to see the treasure knife inside!"

As she spoke, she gently lifted the veil, and the light veil was like a cloud, fading down her fair and smooth skin, like a beautiful snake molting into a beauty!

Liu Qianqian's white jade-like body was exposed in front of Zhao Yanfa without any privacy!

Zhao Yanfa's heart was beating like a rabbit, and there were beads of sweat on his forehead. Liu Qianqian smiled: "Zhao Gongzi, can you see if my treasure knife can shine at night?"

Zhao Yanfa looked at it, her beautiful jade-like skin exuded a crystal clear red light under the reflection of the candlelight, the towering breasts, breasts, slender willow waist that could be held in a slender willow waist, slender and white thighs and a pair of weak and boneless jade feet!

Every part of a mature woman's body is very charming! At this moment, she exposes all her charms to Zhao Yanfa. Zhao Yanfa's body is about to stiffen!

"I've been inviting you to come today, but you just don't come, it turns out that Zhao Gongzi, you don't like to eat, but like to look at the treasure knife!"

Liu Qianqian gently walked to Zhao Yanfa's side and blew in his ear, which made Zhao Yanfa's heart itch. The fragrance on Liu Qianqian's body poured into his nose, and at that moment he suddenly became a little confused!

Liu Qianqian smiled and asked softly in his ear: "Zhao Gongzi, how do you say that my treasure knife is compared to yours!"

The sweet breath in Liu Qianqian's mouth blew on his face and ears. Zhao Yanfa didn't dare to speak! His knife was a sharp weapon for killing, and Liu Qianqian's knife was a goblin that deceived people!

"Zhao Gongzi, such a beautiful day, don't you want to use your treasure knife to try the treasure knife of the concubine's body?"

Liu Qianqian chuckled, reached out and untied the belt around Zhao Yanfa's waist, and took off the clothes on his body. Took him by the hand and came to the bed.

Touching Zhao Yanfa's stiff body, Liu Qianqian's eyes were like silk, and he laughed: "Could it be that Zhao Gongzi is this the first time? It's okay, let the concubine teach you the knife technique in the boudoir! Don't worry, the people have been broken up by me, and they can't hear any movement in the room tonight!"

She pressed Zhao Yanfa down on the bed, her hands roamed over his strong chest, one foot was raised, her jade foot arched, and her toes grabbed the tent next to the bed, scattering!

Everything is covered by the tent, and it can no longer be seen!

......

The moon is in the middle of the sky, the autumn breeze is bleak, and the whole world is in a silver light, different from Zhao Yanfa's fragrant warmth in the boudoir, the broken temple where Xiao Qingshan and Yang Wenyuan stayed overnight is extremely cold!

After saying goodbye to Zhao Yanfa, the two rode the same horse and rushed to the place where the Shandong Jianghu people rebelled. Because Yang Wenyuan's white horse was too tired to carry the two of them, the two of them walked for dozens of miles to rest, and stopped after walking for dozens of miles, so three days have passed!

When the two came here, it was already dark, so they stayed overnight in this broken temple, and simply ate some dry food, Yang Wenyuan found some hay to feed the white horse, and Xiao Qingshan jumped on the knees of the big Buddha in the temple, lay down, and took a sip of wine with a gourd.

The wine had been beaten at the tavern in town the day before. When Xiao Qingshan escaped from the Xuanming Sect, he used his own words to "leave the house" and had no money on him. And Yang Wenyuan's silver taels were almost spent, but Yang Wenyuan knew that he liked to drink, so he gave him a pot of ruthlessness.

Xiao Qingshan was very moved, but the wine gourd was too small, he was reluctant to drink too much, so every time he took it out and took a sip, smashed it, smashed it, and then put it up.

Yang Wenyuan came back from feeding the white horse, looked up and saw Xiao Qingshan sipping wine and drinking, smiled, sat on a ball of hay and lay down, and said: "Didn't you come out and thought that you would live this kind of life, the second son of the dignified Xuanming Sect Leader used to live a life of brocade clothes and jade food, but now he stays in this dilapidated temple at night, and he is even reluctant to drink a sip of wine!"

Xiao Qingshan buttoned up the wine gourd, smashed it, and shook his head: "Although the life in the Xuanming Sect is nourishing, it is not comfortable, how can there be such a free and happy life!"

Yang Wenyuan suddenly asked, "Is that Concubine Xiao really your cousin?"

"This can still be fake!" Xiao Qingshan said: "She is my uncle's daughter, we grew up together since childhood, she is five years older than me, even my genius brother has to honestly call Sister Ah when he sees her!"

Yang Wenyuan suddenly remembered the scene of meeting Xiao Yanyu, the concubine of Xiaoxiang, that night, and couldn't help but admire: "Concubine Xiao can become a commander in the 'Jianghu people' with many talents, she is really a heroine among women, it's not simple!"

"Of course she's not simple!" Xiao Qingshan put her hands behind her head and said: "She has been practicing martial arts with us since she was a child, not to mention martial arts, and she is also handsome, she is called 'the first beauty in the rivers and lakes' by the people on the rivers and lakes, every time she goes out, she will attract passers-by to watch, how many chivalrous people on the rivers and lakes have ignored the prestige of the Xuanming Sect for her, went to the Vulcan Peak to ask for relatives, and were killed by a few people in my sect." Later, because the righteous martial arts failed to pursue her sister, she hated her, saying that she was a demon girl and caused trouble in the rivers and lakes, so she specially held a martial arts conference, and elected the person with the highest martial arts skills as the leader of the martial arts alliance, and went to the Fire God Peak to destroy the demon sect and kill the demon girl! This also caused a turmoil and chaos in the rivers and lakes!"

Yang Wenyuan suddenly realized: "Is it that Concubine Xiao is afraid that she will harm the Xuanming Sect because of her own reasons, so she defected from the sect?"

Xiao Qingshan suddenly sat up and said with a smile: "I thought you were an elm head, but I didn't expect you to be so smart." Yes, my sister left the Xuanming Sect because of this. Since ancient times, although she is not a compliment to the chaos of the dynasty, but because of her reasons, the righteous path martial arts and the Xuanming Sect have formed a lot of bonds, originally the Xuanming Sect is an outlier in the eyes of the righteous martial arts, and because of my sister's incident, they have even more reason to start a war with the Xuanming Sect!

Yang Wenyuan clenched his fists angrily: "What kind of bullshit righteous martial arts, because she failed to pursue Concubine Xiao, she was framed as a demon girl, what kind of righteous way is it, the harmed Concubine Xiao She can't go back to her home, and she is alone outside! Compared to these people who claim to be on the right path, I prefer you to be a bright and upright demon sect person!"

Xiao Qingshan laughed: "You are really different from mortals! When I saw my sister that night, she was wearing a mask, because she was so beautiful that no matter who saw her, she couldn't pull out her legs." It is rumored that when my sister joined the 'Jianghu People', General Qin Shuyuan, who was famous far and wide and had read countless people, was stunned for a long time before coming back to his senses after seeing her!"

Yang Wenyuan nodded: "Concubine Xiao, she is not only beautiful, but also kind-hearted! To be able to join Concubine Xiao in this life is my Yang Wenyuan's blessing!"

"Isn't it your blessing to get to know me?" Xiao Qingshan asked with a smile.

Yang Wenyuan nodded: "You too, but you are second, and Concubine Xiao is first!"

"That's not right!" Xiao Qingshan's eyes rolled, and then he laughed: "You just met your sister once, and you praised her so unhesitively, saying that you have an idea?"

"What can I think!" Yang Wenyuan said: "I just want to contribute to Concubine Xiao and the people of the rivers and lakes!"

"No, no, it's not this!" Xiao Qingshan shook his head: "Are you in love with your sister?"

Yang Wenyuan was guessed by him, his face was crimson, fortunately, the sky was dark, and Xiao Qingshan couldn't see it: "Concubine Xiao, she is beautiful and kind, who doesn't like it when she sees it!"

"Okay, Yang Wenyuan!" Xiao Qingshan shouted: "You want to be my brother-in-law! I treat you as a brother, but you want to marry my sister! You are one year younger than me, but you want me to call you brother-in-law!"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Yang Wenyuan smacked him and said, "I only have reverence for Concubine Xiao, and I don't have the slightest dirty thoughts, don't talk nonsense!"

Xiao Qingshan laughed: "Don't be so serious, that's what it means!" He opened the wine gourd and took a sip again, and said, "Who doesn't want to marry like my sister, the first beauty in the rivers and lakes? If I wasn't her brother, I would also like to marry!" He suddenly sighed again: "Actually, if you were my brother-in-law, I would be willing, you are much better than those so-called righteous martial arts!"

He raised his head and saw the bright moon in the night sky through the ruins of the ruined temple, and there was a hint of loneliness in his eyes!

Yang Wenyuan just wanted to say something, but he heard a long neighing from the white horse outside the temple, as if he was startled by something! He looked outside the temple gate, and his hand couldn't help but hold the silver spear!

Xiao Qingshan also noticed the abnormality, buckled the wine gourd, and reached out to hold the handle of the knife!

......
