The spring breeze brings not the hope of recovery, but the helplessness of return. Ye Fengcheng stepped on the familiar land and walked step by step towards the place where he hid his sword.

I thought I didn't need it anymore, but the red dust was accompanied by grievances that couldn't be washed away. Ye Fengcheng came to the waterfall, looked at the spring water, and was in a daze.

Ye Fengcheng opened the sword technique with his right hand, pointed to the middle of the waterfall and drew down, and when he landed, he followed the invisible sword qi and divided into two streams.

As the water separates, a cold front gradually emerges behind the waterfall. The whole body is black, and it shines even more in the sunlight.

"Warring States Que!"

Ye Fengcheng's left hand urged the internal force to suck the Warring States Que, only to hear a crisp sound, the Warring States Que flew out of the waterfall and was held in Ye Fengcheng's hand. Immediately, the right hand stopped using the sword qi, and the waterfall returned to its previous state.

"You've regained your grip on the Warring States Period. Ji Mengwan was still talking to Ye Fengcheng through the door curtain.

"Yes, I won't be able to come to see you again. Ye Fengcheng's heart was full of regret, "When the matter of Yuanyue Hall is over, I will come back." ”

"The red dust is vast, who can say for sure?" Ji Mengwan's tone seemed to sigh, "The rivers and lakes are sinister, please take care of yourself in the future." ”

Ye Fengcheng turned around, gave up his old feelings, and recited loudly: "The hall is full of three thousand guests, and one sword is frosty and cold in fourteen states." "Stride your head high and leave Yaju.

After Ye Fengcheng left, the door that had been closed for a long time finally opened, and a beautiful woman walked out of the house, looking at the direction where Ye Fengcheng disappeared, and sighed softly.

The seventh day of the seventh month of July arrived in a blink of an eye, and on this day, Zhang Zongzhou's family went to Pingnan Wangfu early in the morning as guests.

After a period of red tape, everyone sat down around a large round table, which was full of delicacies from the mountains and the sea. However, everyone here knows that the point is not what to eat, but what to say.

"In-laws, how many years have you and I not sat down to eat like this?" Wei Che pointed meaningfully, "This king doesn't have a very good memory, and he has been for more than ten years. ”

Zhang Zongzhou replied skillfully: "The prince and nobles forget a lot of things, not long ago at the dog's wedding banquet, the grass people also talked with the prince about wine. ”

"It seems that this king has forgotten, and this memory is really not as good as before. Punish yourself!" Wecher took a drink from his glass.

"Don't dare, don't dare. Zhang Zongzhou accompanied him carefully, and also took the wine glass and drank it all, and returned the empty glass to show King Pingnan.

"Hahaha~~~~" King Pingnan laughed loudly, his eyes wandering, "In-laws, how is the business lately?"

"Thanks to the blessing of the prince, it's okay. Zhang Zongzhou secretly wondered about the meaning of the prince's sudden question.

King Pingnan said: "I heard that your silk business is good! Pointing to the clothes Wei Yan was wearing, he continued: "This is a high-quality product that only exists in Siam, and it is rare in the palace." ”

Zhang Zongzhou sighed in his heart, it turned out that King Pingnan was alluding to him and the six islands in the south of the Yangtze River, and he was squeezing me with words. Hurriedly opened his mouth and responded: "This is the new arrival of my friend's silk village, the county lord has just returned to his parents' house, and he can't let her wear old clothes, doesn't it seem mean to the grass people." Only then did he order a few sets for the county lord. ”

"Yes, my lord. At that time, the son-in-law still felt that it was too extravagant to use this kind of material, but his father said that the county lord should waste it when he returned to his parents' house for the first time. Zhang Qichao took his father's words and hurriedly testified for him.

When Wei Cher heard this, he thought to himself, this old fox is pretending to be confused with me. So he said: "It's really bothering my in-laws, Yan'er has too many clothes, so I don't need to buy her so many sets in the future." ”

"It should be, it should be. Zhang Zongzhou didn't dare to really agree.

The meal in the palace was really tasteless, and after the banquet was dispersed, Zhang Qichao's stomach was still rumbling with hunger. After going back to the house and discussing with Wei Yan, the two sneaked to the kitchen and stole a roast chicken and came back. I ate so much that I didn't even have time to take a sip of water.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, Zhang Qichao and Wei Yan wanted to hide the roast chicken, but there was no place, and then wiped their oily hands with a cloth, but they couldn't wipe it clean.

The husband and wife did not open the door for a long time, and the people outside waited a little impatiently. A voice came from outside the door, and when I heard it carefully, it was the voice of my father Zhang Zongzhou, "Don't wipe your hands, it's me." Open the door quickly, hurry up. ”

The husband and wife looked at each other, wondering how the father knew they were wiping their hands. Not daring to delay, Zhang Qichao hurriedly went to open the door.

I saw Zhang Zongzhou sneaking in, and he didn't know what he was holding in his hand. Put it on the table, open it, and it shows roast chicken and rice wine.

Zhang Zongzhou said thoughtfully: "I knew that you were not full, so I specially ordered my subordinates to secretly go to the street to buy it." When he saw that there was already a broken roast chicken on the table, he asked curiously, "Where did you just come from?"

Wei Yan blushed and didn't dare to answer, it was Zhang Qichao who replied truthfully: "I went to the kitchen with the county lord to steal it." ”

Zhang Zongzhou did not blame, but boasted: "Yes, I know the truth that starvation is a big deal." I left this roast chicken, and I have to rush back to eat, so I won't stay. And the rice wine is not intoxicating, you can taste it. With that, he slipped away again.

This can make Wei Yan stunned, "My father-in-law is really open-minded, if it is my father, we must be counted." ”

Zhang Qi sat down, looked at the fat roast chicken, and said helplessly: "Lady, we still have one that needs to be eliminated!

"Eat!" Wei Yan ordered, and the two of them let go of their hands and feet to eat.

In the study of the Pingnan Palace, the King of Pingnan was writing leisurely, repeatedly writing the word "Jing".

"Father, Zhang Zongzhou has been playing Tai Chi, what should we do next?" Wei Feng had already seen at yesterday's banquet.

Wei Che smiled and responded, "Don't worry, this old fox will go into the water sooner or later." When we cut off the opposition forces one by one and control Jiangnan, Zhang Zongzhou will naturally take the initiative to surrender. ”

"In that case, why bother with the feast? Wei Feng didn't understand the meaning of his father's doing.

Wei Che threw down the brush and said angrily: "Why can't you change the superficial problem of thinking about things, I call it salute first and then soldier." Also, do you know that Feng Huaien is in Jiangnan. I used the excuse of my birthday to leave Zhang Zongzhou's father and son behind, so that Feng Huaien and Zhang Zongzhou would never have a chance to contact each other again. Make the plan more smoothly, understand?"

After being reprimanded by his father, Wei Feng did not dare to be unconvinced.

At the same time, Zhang Qichao and Wei Yan went to their father's room to discuss things.

opened the door wide, Xia Jinmei and Wei Yan pretended to be embroidering, but they were actually looking out for them. Zhang Zongzhou pretended to teach Zhang Qichao to practice calligraphy in the room, but in fact, he was dedicated to two things, and what was written on paper was completely different from what he said.

"Father, the child is very afraid that King Pingnan will use the name of his birthday to actually put us under house arrest. and was planning to go to Yuanyue Hall with Ye Fengcheng, but there was no good reason to get out. What should I do?" Zhang Qichao wrote the hidden worries in his heart. said on his lips: "My father's calligraphy is really dragon flying and phoenix dancing, and it has the style of Wang Xizhi." ”

Zhang Zongzhou wrote, "The reason is very simple, just say that your sister has sent a letter asking you to go south to Feihuafang." He said: "Don't pat yourself on the back, look at everyone's calligraphy more, and you will know that your father's calligraphy is an axe." ”

"Is this feasible? What if King Pingnan doesn't let go?" Zhang Qichao hesitated. said: "It's already well written, and it's not a child's boast." ”

Zhang Zongzhou wrote, "Don't worry, King Pingnan will let you go." It is easier to move the tiger away from the mountain than to imprison the tiger. He said: "Have you read anyone's postings, and you dare to brag nonsense here." ”

"Then what should you do? What should the county lord do?" Zhang Qichao wrote. He said, "When the father asks this question, the child cannot answer immediately." ”

Zhang Zongzhou wrote: "The county lord and we will stay here for a while, so as to avoid the suspicion of King Pingnan, and it is not easy to leave." He said: "I know that you are such a big person who learns half a bottle of vinegar." It's so bad to write a few strokes. ”

"This ......" Zhang Qichao was a little reluctant to leave Wei Yan. He said, "The child knows, but it's just ......"

Zhang Zongzhou wrote: "If you don't rush to the rescue, Yuanyuetang may be in danger. He said, "What's just that? If you don't learn well, I'll serve you in the law." ”

"Okay, then I'll leave and explain to my father-in-law. Zhang Qichao made a decision immediately. He said, "Got it." That's all for this time, be sure to pay attention next time. ”

Zhang Zongzhou advised: "There is one thing you have to remember, don't contact Feng Huaien for the time being. I suspect that he has been targeted by the prince, and he will see someone else again. He said, "Have you written down everything I said?"

"Yes," Zhang Qichao drew a big tick on the paper.

Zhang Zongzhou sighed: "There is really no progress!" As he spoke, he burned all the letterheads, leaving no trace.

King Pingnan's secret agent monitored every move in the house, and when he saw the other party open the door, his every move was in full view, but he didn't dare to move, so he could only monitor from a distance.

When Zhang Qichao went to explain the reason he had made up for leaving to King Pingnan, King Pingnan readily agreed. Zhang Qichao muttered in his heart, knowing that King Pingnan must have other plans. But the matter of Yuanyue Hall is urgent, and Zhang Qichao is not allowed to hesitate.

As soon as he left the Pingnan Palace, he found Ye Feng City, and then quickly rushed to Yuanyue Hall.

On the other side, Sun Anshu soon received news about Zhang Qichao.

"Zhang Qichao really took the bait, he was going to Yuanyue Hall with Ye Fengcheng. Sun Anshu burned the secret letter.

Shi Aofeng asked, "Master, what should we do next?"

Sun Anshu sneered: "Of course, according to the plan, we will do it to the Shangguan family." You hurry up and prepare, after I say move Shangguan Qingyu, you immediately set off with Shangguan Qingyu, and be sure to destroy the Shangguan family and get back what we want before Zhang Qichao returns. ”

"Yes, the disciple will do it immediately. Shi Aofeng immediately went down and started to prepare.

And Pi Lizhi also began to prepare for the attack on Yuanyue Hall according to the agreed time. To achieve the expected containment effect, the war clouds were dense for a while.

Can Zhang Qichao and Ye Fengcheng rescue Yuanyuetang in time? What is there for the Shangguan family to be worthy of Sun Anshu's big fight? Please see the next chapter, "War Clouds Cover Each Beacon Fire."
