Chapter 22 The Three Heroes of the Late Shang Dynasty Gather at the Beginning of the Month
On the quiet mountain road, in the car pulled by four dragons, a few wisps of purple smoke on the incense burner are faint, and the fragrance of peace of mind is refreshing. A man and a woman sat in their arms, discussing something in a low voice.
After Li Jing and the two of them briefly greeted Shiji Niangniang, they embarked on the road to Makino City. Li Jing originally wanted to come alone, but Yin Siniang insisted on coming over, and at the same time said that she would introduce two people to Li Jing.
Regarding the task chosen by Li Jing, Shi Niang of course also saw that it was a trap set by his second brother. However, she didn't stop it, because this opportunity was really rare, a little risk was worth it, and she was also very confident in her husband.
In fact, deep down in her heart, Shi Niang couldn't wait to help Li Jing complete this task, so that her husband would not be hurt at all. It's a pity that the wall of good deeds is not easy to fool, and this task can only be paid if Li Jing does it himself.
However, for Shi Niang's behavior of protecting herself like a calf, Li Jing was both moved and a little helpless. As a man, he has always been protected by the woman he loves, so he naturally feels a little unhappy.
But it's just uncomfortable, and he's not pedantic, thinking that men should be taller than women. For example, if he could, he would still be willing to complete this task for Shi Niang on his behalf, after all, there was no risk in that way.
It was rare for the two of them to have such an opportunity to be alone, and the small carriage was like a small world that completely separated them from the outside world. has such an opportunity in the world of two people, and they are not in a hurry to go, and it is very sweet to be a farmer and a farmer along the way.
There is also a beautiful scenery along the way, and the two seem to have completely forgotten the purpose of this trip.
In the dense forest outside Chaoge City, a woman in purple stood suspended in the air, still muttering something in her mouth. After a while, only the surface of the body is close to the peacock, and the plumage is gorgeous. The pointed tail feathers are particularly long, and the wings have many red and yellow markings, and a kind of mythical bird flew over and stopped in front of Ishiji Niangniang.
It kept rubbing its head lightly against Shi Ji's body to show its closeness, and at the same time, it kept making a cheerful phoenix sound from its mouth. Shi Ji gently stroked Qingluan's slender neck, his eyes were full of tenderness, and he seemed to be caught in a deep memory.
After a while, I saw Shi Ji Niangniang take out a piece of cloth from there and let it smell it near Qingluan's nose. At the same time, he instructed: "Find this person, silently protect him from a distance, and in case of danger, immediately rescue him." ”
As the head of the Xianwu Hall, Shi Ji Niangniang has almost nothing to hide from him. Including this time, the plan of Wei Ziyan can be said to be very clear from the beginning, but it has not been stopped.
First, with her heart, she will not get involved in any dispute with the prince, which is also one of the reasons why the emperors of the Great Shang Dynasty recognized Shiji. Second, she also wanted to see what kind of level Li Jing was now, and she also regarded this trap as a test for Li Jing.
Of course, this Li Jing is the apprentice of Shi Ji's friend Du Er Zhenren after all, and she can't watch him have an accident, so she sent Qingluan, who has the strength of a heavenly immortal, to ensure that Li Jing is foolproof.
Therefore, whether Li Jing is the opponent of those three people or not, the second prince's plan is destined to fail. It's really sad, it's really pitiful, what about the second prince of Dashang, and how you plan hard, it's destined to be tragic in front of Shiji.
In this Three Realms where strength is respected, it sounds good to say that you are a prince and a dragon and phoenix among people. But in front of the powerful immortals, they are just a little more powerful than the ordinary people. Any one means will make you a litmus test for others.
In fact, Shi Ji Niangniang really didn't take Wei Ziyan seriously in her heart, saying that she treated everyone fairly, but that was also relative. In the past hundred years, Shi Ji has seen too many princes, but Du Erzhen's apprentice has only seen such one, and the status of the two in Shi Ji Niangniang's heart can be imagined.
Not to mention that Shiji arranged a guarantee for Li Jing to win, and Li Jing and the two of them also arrived in this Muye City.
But Li Jing really felt what is called the majesty of a princess. Shi Niang's carriage went all the way, but no one should stop it, and there were very few people who even pointed behind their backs. At the same time, this also made Li Jing realize what kind of character his childhood sweetheart's sister Shi Niang is, and her gentleness may only be revealed to herself.
The carriage galloped all the way to the City Lord's Mansion, and Li Jing saw from a distance that two young men with extraordinary bearings seemed to be waiting there.
The one standing in front of him, dressed in a black brocade robe, had the bearing of a superior person, and after seeing Shi Niang's carriage, he still looked unfazed.
Li Jing observed this person carefully, and thought of what Shi Niang said before that he would introduce Lian to himself, so he guessed that this person should be the third brother Xin in Shi Niang's mouth.
The other was wearing soft armor and standing tightly behind the third prince, his expression was slightly excited, but Li Jing didn't know who this was. During the time when Li Jing was secretly inquiring about the two, the carriage had already stopped at the door of the mansion.
Zixin took the initiative to come over and help Shi Niang get out of the car, looked at Li Jing, and said: "This one is Li Jing, I originally thought that my sister was dedicated to immortals, and the young talents of Dashang were not in her eyes. But I don't want to be secretly stolen by you many years ago. To be honest, I wondered at the time, how can a girl not have a spring, oops!"
Shi Niang listened to her brother getting poorer and more outrageous, and she always couldn't stand it, so she gave Zixin a look. Li Jing didn't expect that the third prince was so interesting, so he hurriedly stepped forward and glanced at Shi Niang, "Li Jing has seen the third brother, and often heard Shi Niang talk about how the third brother loved her, but he didn't want to see her here." ”
Zi Xin took Li Jing's hand familiarly, and introduced a man to Li Jing, but it was Huang Feihu from the loyal family of the seventh generation of the Great Shang. Since childhood, he has been friends with Zixin, and he also loves Shi Niang's sister very much.
Of course, this is not the first time Li Jing has heard the name of this Huang Feihu, as early as when he was in the barracks, this name has already been like thunder. The Huang family has been a general for generations, and they are all in high positions, and their power in the army is very strong. Moreover, this Huang Feihu is also like a god with soldiers, and his force is extraordinary, so he naturally became the idol of tens of millions of soldiers in the army.
Standing at the door politely, the second prince led Li Jing to the mansion, and at the same time beckoned his subordinates to prepare a banquet for Li Jing.
In this way, the three giants who decided the situation in Kyushu at the end of the Shang Dynasty met in the place of Makino.
