In the face of Nangong's sudden color change, Xiu Yan could feel an obvious chill invaded from the soles of his feet all over his body.

He was unmoved, and still said gently: "In his position, I am the guardian of Chang'an, so I should know everything about Chang'an." ”

Nangong said coldly: "I didn't know that you were such a conscientious person. ”

Xiu Yan said: "Being under Prime Minister Zhang Cheng's door, I have to be responsible. ”

Nangong said: "When did Chang'anwei come under the control of the Prime Minister's Mansion." ”

Xiu Yan said: "From the time you were ordered to return to Beijing, Chang'anwei was taken over by the Prime Minister's Mansion. At special moments, only be united. ”

Nangong said: "The special moment you are talking about, and the special moment I know, don't seem to be referring to the same thing. ”

Xiu Yanshu smiled helplessly: "Among the young people in Da Zhou, I always seem to be the stupidest one. ”

Nangong said: "The stupidest must not be counted, but it is indeed the one who likes to pretend to be stupid." ”

Xiu Yan said: "Let's go, talk while walking, I know that your task in the past few days is not light, and the heavy responsibility of resisting the sword of the god of war has fallen on you alone." ”

Nangong Zhen listened to Xiu Yanshu's words and continued to walk towards the south of the city: "You seem to have revealed too much, and it is not like the shoddy and clumsy tricks you have always liked to use. ”

Xiu Yan said: "You have said that it is poor, why should I humiliate myself." ”

Nangong said: "How much do you know about me. ”

Xiu Yan said: "Maybe more than you." ”

Nangong was puzzled: "Oh?"

Xiu Yan said: "What you know is only what you have experienced. But there are many things about you that you don't necessarily know. At least, I don't know what I've been commanded to you. ”

Nangong Dao: "Zhang Xufeng's order?"

Xiu Yan said: "Shennong's order." ”

Nangong said: "I don't care about my own world, but I take care of my personal affairs." ”

Xiu Yan said: "Your business is also a political matter. ”

Nangong laughed at himself: "Everyone knows about me, but I don't know myself." ”

Xiu Yan said: "You are wrong, and you are wrong in two points. ”

Nangong said: "Which two points." ”

Xiu Yan said: "First, not everyone in the world knows, at present, in addition to the old ministers of the court who know your background, I am the only one. ”

Nangong was puzzled: "Why is it you." ”

Xiu Yan said: "This question is the same answer as the question you will ask after listening to the second point. ”

Nangong said: "So what is this second point." ”

Xiu Yan said with a smile: "You have a good patience. ”

Nangong said: "It's almost gone." ”

Xiu Yan said: "Okay, the second point that you are wrong is that you are not the only one who doesn't know, because I am going to tell you soon." ”

Nangong said: "I want to ask, 'Why do you want to tell me', but since you said it, the answer to this question is the same as 'why is it', then I won't ask." And I'm not that interested in my own background. ”

Xiu Yan said: "Don't want to know?"

Nangong said: "I've never been a curious person. ”

Xiu Yan said: "Haven't you ever thought about looking for your biological father?"

Nangong said: "Bai Liyao is a good father. ”

Xiu Yan said: "Even if your biological father is right in front of you?"

Nangong looked back at Xiu Yanshui sideways, and said expressionlessly: "Are you taking advantage of me?"

Xiu Yan laughed: "You are really an interesting person." ”

The two of them no longer mentioned Nangong's affairs, and Nangong no longer asked Xiu Yanshu why he knew his secrets, after all, people who even knew their own life experience understood that they were equipped with miraculous skills, and it was also a natural thing. So they chatted about some interesting stories in the army all the way, although most of them were self-talk, and they came to the south of the city smoothly.

After the two of them went up to the city to inspect the circle, Nangong would cross the central axis of Chang'an and go north.

Xiu Yan was puzzled: "This is the end?"

Nangong looked around as he walked, "Don't you know everything." ”

Xiu Yan said: "It's just a half-understanding. ”

Nangong turned his head to look at him carefully, and only after a while did he say, "It's not that I'm pretending to be stupid this time." ”

Xiu Yan said: "I want to hear about it." ”

Nangong said, "I don't want to tell you." ”

Xiu Yan suddenly stopped, Nangong ignored him and continued to walk forward. When the distance of two steps was fleeting, Xiu Yanshui suddenly pulled out the knife at his waist, and slashed Nangong's neck from behind with his famous stunt "Knife Drawing" with all his might.

This knife was as fast as lightning, but it was silent, even the whistling sound of the unsheath was a few moments later than the blade, even if it was a master of the human king in the period of ranking a hundred years ago, he could not dodge this knife without being guarded.

Nangong seemed to be completely ignorant of the movement behind him, and still walked forward, that is, when he stepped to the distance of three steps, the blade and its long hair, but saw a golden light burst out from Nangong's body, and it was actually the last to come first, and he resisted this inevitable knife.

It was only then that the sound of the wind swept through Nangong's side, which was split in two by the golden light, and continued to rush forward. But it was the knife momentum of the moment that night.

Nangong didn't look back, and continued to move forward, just said coldly: "Bored." ”

Xiu Yan ran up excitedly, grabbed Nangong's shoulder and stretched out his thumb and said: "Amazing, no wonder you can have a record of 100 people breaking 10,000 horses, this means, even if there are no 100 people, you can break 10,000 horses alone." ”

He said: "Or are those 100 people originally arranged by you to send them to death?"

Nangong finally stopped, and did not push away Xiu Yanzhuan's arm on his body, his eyes were even colder than before, and a cold air condensed the snow that had not melted last night.

Xiu Yan Lian's face was provocative, unaware of the crowd that was gradually moving away, and looked at Nangong with a very disgusting expression.

After a while, the cold receded, and Nangong sighed: "Scheming City, I am indeed more than inferior to you." ”

Xiu Yan said with a rare face: "What do you think, you and I, plus the hidden dragon, compare to the pattern of Zhang and Bai." ”

Nangong said: "I'm just a martial artist, and I don't dare to judge the overall situation of the government." ”

Xiu Yan said: "The country built with friendship as the riveting and benevolence and righteousness as the nail will eventually collapse due to the old age, and the Great Zhou needs a new situation." ”

Nangong said: "What can you do better than Prime Minister Zhang?"

Xiu Yan said: "No one can do better than Prime Minister Zhang, but I can do better than Shennong, do you believe it or not?"

Nangong asked rhetorically: "Do you believe it yourself?"

Xiu Yan said: "I believe it." ”

Nangong said: "I don't believe it. ”

Xiu Yan said: "If I am the emperor, will it be worse than not having an emperor?"

Nangong said: "Shennong is faith. ”

Xiu Yan said: "What Da Zhou needs is a system. ”

Nangong was silent and continued to walk towards the northern city, and Xiu Yan Yan stopped talking, just followed silently.

It wasn't until the two of them walked in front of the majestic Taiji Palace that Nangong stopped, looked at the magnificent building left by the previous dynasty, and was silent.

Xiu Yan stood beside him like this, bowing his head and contemplating against the strange weather of the snowfall in July.

At dusk, after the snow was gone, the sun finally set in the west, stretching the shadows of the two like ink, and Nangong finally spoke.

"Those hundred were sinners. Ten years may be a long time for a man, but too short for an empire. If Da Zhou is a person, ten years Da Zhou is just a baby who is still babbling in swaddling clothes. When Liu Sanshi rebelled and Jialou invaded, he never had time to perfect the law.

"Therefore, there are many people in our army who were imprisoned because of the legal system of the previous dynasty, in a vain attempt to make meritorious contributions and regain their lives.

"There is a big brother Chen in the army, because his wife was insulted, and the officials of the previous dynasty colluded with the businessmen, not only acquitted the adulterer, but also imprisoned Brother Chen under the pretext of bribery. Brother Chen's 50-year-old father went to the yamen to kneel and cry for three days, begging the county order to spare his son, but he was imprisoned together. Leaving Chen's sister-in-law to suffer alone, she was later taken captive by profiteers several times, and when she was released, she was no longer human.

"If it were someone else, maybe it would be easiest to die Mingzhi, but Sister-in-law Chen insisted on surviving. Ignoring the scolding and ridicule of her neighbors, the woman's torso was engaged in farming, eating her own rice bran, and giving all the eggs laid by the only old hen in the house to the jailer, hoping that her husband and grandfather would suffer less in prison.

The neighbor bullied her for being lonely, and the brother who was originally good friends with Brother Chen also came to the door at this time to molest her. Her mother's family had already thought she was ashamed and cut off contact.

It was such a tortured woman, who endured everyone's malice and insisted on surviving, just to promise her promise to marry into the Chen family.

"The Chen family has been passed down for two generations, and she wants to contribute to the Chen family. ”
