A few decades ago in the southwestern Miaojiang area, if someone's little baby cries at night and can't sleep, parents only need to bluff that Nan Moxie is coming, no matter how earth-shattering it was, it will stop immediately. easy to use. Just because his kung fu is extremely high, his whereabouts are elusive, he is good at raising gu and making poison, and his methods are sinister and vicious, and almost every stockade has suffered. Later, the big guy was unbearable, so he jointly went to the then Southwest King Duan Jing, begging him to send troops to suppress it, or let the big guy have a happy birthday.
After learning about the incident, Duan Jing personally led his army to the deep mountains and forests and set up numerous traps. It took three months to capture him. The people in the stockade were like the lord and wanted to set the demon on fire, but they didn't expect Nan Moxie to stay in prison for a few days, and then he was invited into the guest room of the palace and became Duan Baiyue and Duan Yao's master. .
Although the villagers can't understand it, it is always good to be able to trap people in the southwest palace and not come out to harm the world. Besides, since he has a status, he won't be as rambunctious as before, so he gradually forgot about it.
Under the guidance of Nan Moxie, Duan Baiyue and Duan Yao's kung fu is absolutely beyond the reach of others, but there is a problem, the moves are really too sinister. However, Duan Jing didn't care about this. He has always looked down on the chivalrous benevolence of the Central Plains martial arts.
The servants in the Southwest Palace knew that although Master Nan looked a little crazy, he was very kind to the two little princes. After Duan Jing passed away due to illness, it was Nan Moxie who helped in secret, so that the young Duan Baiyue could sit firmly on the throne of Southwest China and gradually have today's climate.
Being both a teacher and a father, there are certain things that Duan Baiyue naturally won't hide from him, and he really can't hide it.
"How long are you going to stand here?" Bai Laicai, or Nan Mo wickedly said, "There is a genius doctor in this valley who has a bad temper. If he hears an uninvited guest standing at his door, I'm afraid he will come out again. Sprinkle poison all over the sky."
"It's all right, why did Master come here." Duan Baiyue supported him. Every time before, every time the corpse was dug out of the grave, it was swaggering back to the palace. At first, the servant was frightened to death, but he got used to it after a while. Later, he even talked about why Master Nan was buried for so long this time, and he hasn't cheated out yet. We all miss it very much.
"You and Yao'er are not here, what should I do when I go back?" Nan Mo said evilly, "Besides, I have important things to do when I come here."
"Related to this genius doctor?" Duan Baiyue walked to the inn with him.
"He is Ye Guantian's apprentice, one of the best doctors in the Central Plains martial arts." Nan Mo evilly said, "He is also the younger brother of your sweetheart." So whether it is treating old diseases or heart diseases, it should sound very reliable.
Duan Baiyue has nothing to say about the word "sweetheart".
"Although this genius doctor has a bad temper, his heart is first-rate." Nan Moxie said ambitiously, "For the teacher to have a good relationship with him first, I will also help you in your wedding in the future."
Duan Baiyue was dumbfounded.
"But I've tried several times these days, and he doesn't seem to know where to find Tianchensha." Nan Moxie sighed.
"I'm worried about Master Lao." Duan Baiyue said, "But my disciple has been injured for a long time, and there is no abnormality recently, but there is no need to worry."
Nan Moxie asked again, "Where's Yao'er?"
"In the inn, it's been a bit rough these days, so I should be sleeping." Duan Baiyue said, "There is one more thing, when I was sleeping in the forest in Mulberry Town a few days ago, Lan Ji of Tianzhamen chased after me and wanted to Yao'er will be brought back to marry."
Nan Moxie was shocked when he heard the words: "How old is Yao'er this year, is that witch crazy?"
"According to what she said, it should be the master's confession that Yao'er has practiced the Bodhi Heart Sutra." Duan Baiyue said, "Although I don't know where the rumors originated, but in recent years, people have been saying that the Bodhi Heart Sutra can A strong man, Yang Yuan, if he can have sex with a man who practices exercises, the internal strength of both parties will be greatly increased. Lan Ji is a demon girl, so she will naturally be very convinced and fascinated by this, and it is not surprising that she runs to arrest people." Besides, the young prince of the Southwest Palace He's good looking, pink and tender, with a pinch of water on his face, if he doesn't just poison him, anyone who sees it will like it.
Nanmo said angrily: "Nonsense! I just make it up, how can anyone believe it?"
Duan Baiyue: "..."
Randomly make up
Nan Moxie asked again, "Yao'er didn't suffer, right?"
Duan Baiyue shook his head: "That's not true. I even caught a red-eyed snake for nothing."
Nan Moxie was deeply relieved: "It really does not disgrace the teacher's sect."
"What kind of kung fu is the Bodhi Heart Sutra?" Duan Baiyue asked, "Also, why did Master find someone to spread rumors in the southwest and tout it to heaven?"
Nan Moxie patted him: "Do you want to practice?"
Duan Baiyue shook his head: "I don't want to."
Nan Moxie sighed: "Why don't you agree? You see Yaoer wants to practice, but I don't want to teach him. This kung fu is good, and it can strengthen Yang."
Duan Baiyue calmly said: "Can I order this king to expand the tomb for the master?" I wonder if pressing a cast iron plate on top would be able to keep it locked for two more years.
"This time I came out as a teacher, but I won't go back." Nan Mo said evilly, "At least watch you get married."
Duan Baiyue said: "I never thought about getting married."
"That's fine, but there must be a husband and wife." Nan Mo evilly said, "Otherwise—"
"Master!" Duan Baiyue interrupted him with gritted teeth, standing still and said, "If you have anything else to say, I'll go back to the inn once I'm done talking!"
"That's the emperor." Nan Moxie reminded.
Duan Baiyue asked, "What about the emperor?"
"Your Majesty wants to pretend to be the country and the whole world, so how can you only take care of the southwest corner?" Nan Mo said evilly, "You don't want to be the king of the southwest, but you changed your mind because of a letter, and fought the east and west to wipe out the border rebellion, and even Regardless of his internal injuries, he almost went into trouble, just to make him feel at ease on the throne. If this kind of love is sung by the troupe, it is estimated that the people of ten miles and eight townships will cry."
Duan Baiyue said: "It's good now."
Nan Moxie insisted: "You can only applaud when you become a parent."
"I am alone in the southwest, and he has no successor in Wangcheng." Duan Baiyue smiled, "except for the master, no one dares to ask the king's marriage, but he is different." Shangben begged the emperor to recruit draft girls into the palace, and some people knelt and cried all night, not to mention personal experience, even thinking about it gave me a headache.
"I won't be wronged by the path I chose, and he won't be wronged either." Duan Baiyue continued, "It's really good to be like this now."
Nan Moxie sighed and suddenly slapped a palm in the air.
Duan Baiyue was caught off guard, and he had internal injuries. Before he could dodge, he only felt a pain in his chest, and he spit out a mouthful of blood.
Nan Moxie turned around and ran towards Qionghua Valley.
Duan Baiyue was so angry that she wanted to stand up, but her eyes were staring at the stars, so she could only sit under the tree and pant.
Ye Jin went to Houshan early this morning, so only Chu Yuan was in the courtyard, with Sixi by his side.
"Bai Xia Shi, what happened?" Seeing him rushing in, Father Si Xi hurriedly stood up and asked.
"Divine Doctor Ye isn't here?" Nan Moxie asked.
"Xiaojin went to Houshan, and can't come back until night." Chu Yuan said, "What's wrong?"
"Just now I wanted to go to the city to buy some wine, but before I got out of the valley, I saw a man in white lying under a tree, looking tall, handsome, mighty, handsome, and elegant, and even a little expensive. It's like a son of a wealthy family, but he was seriously injured for some reason." Nan Moxie kept on talking, "I guess he came to see a divine healer for treatment, but before he could reach the entrance of the valley, he was exhausted. passed out."
Chu Yuan's heartstrings suddenly tightened.
"I guess it's dead." Nan Moxie sighed, very sorry.
Chu Yuan strode out.
"Your Majesty!" Father Sixi was taken aback and quickly chased after him, "Where is the Emperor going? The medicine is almost ready."
"The decree goes on, no one is allowed to follow!" Chu Yuan didn't turn his head back.
"Your Majesty!" Eunuch Sixi was anxious and worried, stomping on the spot, what's the matter...
Seeing the motionless person lying under the tree from a distance, Chu Yuan's mind was blank, some emotions that had been silent for many years, faintly seemed to be about to burst.
"I'm fine." After being helped up by him, Duan Baiyue waved his hand.
Chu Yuan held his wrist to test the pulse, and then frowned: "When did you suffer from internal injuries?"
Duan Baiyue said: "It will be good to adjust the breath for a while."
Chu Yuan asked again, "Where are your people?"
"The Willow Inn in the city." Duan Baiyue said, "No one knows that this king is here, so Emperor Chu can rest assured."
Although the pulse of the lower finger is empty, it is not chaotic. Chu Yuan is also a martial artist, so he naturally knows that there is no serious problem. After experiencing the panic just now, he gradually calmed down.
Duan Baiyue asked, "Can you ask someone to send a letter to the inn?"
"This is your Fire Cloud Lion?" Chu Yuan beckoned to call a horse not far away.
Duan Baiyue nodded.
Chu Yuan took him on his horse and galloped all the way out of the valley.
Nan Moxie looked at it from a distance and was in a good mood.
In the Willow Inn, Duan Yao was eating with Duan Nian when suddenly a guard came to report that the prince was helped back, as if he was injured.
"What?" Duan Yao was surprised, and hurriedly stood up before she could go downstairs, but she was already one step up the stairs.
"Brother." Duan Yao hurried up to meet him.
Chu Yuan handed the person over to Duan Nian, turned around and wanted to leave, but was caught by the wrist.
Duan Yao: "..."
"I have something to say." Duan Baiyue's face turned pale.
Chu Yuan looked at him and frowned slightly.
Duan Yao was very puzzled and asked, "Who are you?"
Duan Nian: "…"
Duan Baiyue continued: "It is related to the stability of the border."
Without saying a word, Chu Yuan helped him back to the bedroom.
Duan Yao wanted to follow up, but was pulled back by Duan Niansheng.
The door of the house was closed with a bang, and there was even a lock inside, which made Duan Yao even more confused: "Do you know this person?"
Duan Nian hesitated for a moment and said, "I know."
"Who is it?" Duan Yao got to the bottom of it, "I look familiar with my brother, but I haven't seen it before, and I still cover my face." It seems rather mysterious.
Duan Nian thought about his words: "The people in the palace."
"Brother went out just to see him?" Duan Yao sat back at the table hesitantly, and stood up suddenly after a while.
Duan Nian immediately knelt down on one knee and clasped his fists: "This subordinate doesn't know anything!"
Duan Yao: "..."
Duan Yao: "!!!"
There happened to be a heater with warm water in the house, Chu Yuan twisted a hot towel and wiped off the blood on his face.
Duan Baiyue's breathing has calmed down a lot. In fact, he didn't have a big deal at first, but he was a little stunned by the palm of his hand. After all, it was Nan Moxie, and the chopsticks he used might be poisonous.
"What do you want to say?" Chu Yuan asked.
Duan Baiyue said: "Miaojiang has a sect called Huantian Village, which seems to be secretly connected with the northwest rebels."
"Jianghu School?" Chu Yuan was surprised.
Duan Baiyue nodded: "The head is called Li Tieshou. He is greedy for life and fear of death, and he is insatiable. It is not uncommon to be attracted by foreigners."
"Just stare at him first." Chu Yuan said, "Now that the Liu residence has fallen, the DPRK must be cleaned up. If the northwest side doesn't take the initiative to send troops, I have no reason to do it first."
Duan Baiyue said: "When the situation in the DPRK is stabilized, how does Emperor Chu plan to solve the problem in the northwest?" In recent years, the war has continued. Although the Chu army has sent troops to sweep it a few times, they only expelled the trespassers and did not kill them. Kill all. But it is not a long-term solution to fight like this, let alone the fall of Liu's house, which means that the country of Anu has existed in name only, and the tribes in Mobei may unite and march south at any time, so it is necessary to guard against it.
Chu Yuan frowned: "The king of the southwest can speak directly, why be so bewildered."
Duan Baiyue smiled: "Li Tieshou once sent someone a letter, trying to win me over."
It is not surprising that Chu Yuan came here. After all, in the eyes of others, the imperial court and the southwest have always been on the same page, and Duan Baiyue is even more famous for his wolf ambitions.
"When the two armies are fighting, it's best to catch the other side by surprise." Duan Baiyue continued, "If Emperor Chu really wants to get rid of this thorn, I can secretly send 30,000 southwestern troops to the north to fight with Da Chu. The northwest garrison converges. If they pretend to make noise in the southwest, then the Mobei tribe will definitely think that the main force of the Chu army is in the southwest battlefield. For them, it is a good opportunity from heaven, and it is impossible not to reverse it. At that time, the emperor of Chu can be justified. , send troops to suppress the bandits and clear the thieves, and never have future troubles."
Chu Yuan said: "Conditions."
Duan Baiyue laughed when he heard the words: "It depends on what Emperor Chu can give me."
Chu Yuan's voice was low: "What do you want?"
Duan Baiyue restrained her smile and remained silent for a long time.
Chu Yuan's face was as usual, but cold sweat broke out from his palms.
After a long time, Duan Baiyue said, "South of the Mangqi River."
Chu Yuan suddenly raised his head to look at him, gritted his teeth and said, "South of the Mangqi River is the entire southwest."
Duan Baiyue raised the corners of her lips: "Emperor Chu won't give it either."
Chu Yuan waved his sleeves out of the inn.
Duan Yao was standing at the door. Seeing that the door to the guest room was opened, she quickly greeted her with a bright smile, but she didn't receive anything.
Chu Yuan disappeared in the corridor almost instantly.
"What are you giggling again." Duan Baiyue had a headache in the house, "Go, escort all the way back to the valley, so as not to cause trouble again."
Duan Yao trotted downstairs.
Duan Nian knew his interest and reached out to close the bedroom door for his prince.
Duan Baiyue sighed softly as she heard the movement outside getting smaller.
Nan Moxie rode on the window and said, "I should have advised the old prince to send you to the troupe to sing Love Saint." Maybe it has become a corner child now.
Duan Baiyue looked at him for a moment, then pulled the quilt over and covered his head.
"Why do you want so many fiefs, can you eat or drink?" Nan Moxie jumped in.
Duan Baiyue said: "If he doesn't want anything, according to his temperament, he will definitely have one more thing in his heart. But if he wants something else, he won't give it if he wants to." Need, the two do not owe each other.
"You haven't asked, so how do you know others won't give it?" Nan Moxie threw the quilt on the ground.
Duan Baiyue leaned on the head of the bed: "I understand him."
Nan Moxie's chest was very tight.
Chu Yuan's martial arts cultivation base is not low, and he naturally knew that there were people following him along the way, but he didn't care and returned to Qionghua Valley alone. Duan Yao didn't turn around until he saw his back disappear, and just turned around and ran back, intending to interrogate him, but as soon as he returned to the inn, he ran into someone full of heart, and when he looked at it, he suddenly lost his soul: "Help!"
"You bastard!" Nan Moxie carried him on his shoulders, reached out and slapped his butt twice, "Even your master dares to poison him?"
Duan Yao knew that she was wrong, so she howled dryly.
Duan Baiyue covered her ears in the room.
Duan Nian's eyes were quite sympathetic, but it was only sympathy.
Throughout the entire southwest, there should be no one who dares to grab someone from Nan Moxie.
A few days later, a letter from the imperial court was also delivered to Qionghua Valley, along with the southeast garrison, a close associate of Shen Qianfan.
Ye Jin sat in the courtyard eating roast chicken.
Chu Yuan pushed open the door and came in, smiled and said, "Why are you so appetizing today?"
Ye Jin spat out his bones: "I heard you're leaving, let's celebrate." He even had to set off a string of firecrackers.
Chu Yuan was sitting opposite him: "You really don't want to go back to the palace with me?"
Ye Jin's head almost flew away.
Chu Yuan was a little disappointed in his heart, but still smiled: "Alright, be more comfortable outside."
"Be careful when you become the emperor in the future." Ye Jin hummed, "Not every time I get lucky, I happen to be rescued."
Chu Yuan agreed: "Okay."
It was quiet all around.
Ye Jin was very excited.
According to his old habits, if there is such an embarrassing scene, he will definitely send people back to sleep, but he will be leaving soon... It seems that he should restrain his temper a little.
Of course, not because of reluctance, but because this person is the emperor and cannot be easily driven away.
After finding a good reason for himself, the genius doctor thought carefully about how the aunts and aunts of Qionghua Valley usually chat.
After a while, Ye Jin said, "Are you married?"
Chu Yuan: "..."
Ye Jin coughed.
Chu Yuan said: "No."
Ye Jin said again: "I'm not too young, it's time to get married or get married."
Chu Yuan paused and said, "Okay."
Ye Jin continued to be patient: "Is there a girl you like?"
Chu Yuan almost wanted to flee: "No."
So the surroundings became quiet again.
Ye Jin felt that he didn't seem to find the right entry point.
Fortunately, Father-in-law Sixi came over in time to let the emperor rest earlier.
Ye Jin was relieved.
Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up.
Under the moonlight, Chu Yuan walked all the way, but wanted to laugh for no reason.
"What did the emperor chat with His Highness Ninth?" Seeing the smile in his eyes, Eunuch Sixi also asked happily, "But are you willing to go back to the palace with him?"
"Xiao Jin said that he is used to wandering around in the rivers and lakes and doesn't want to go to the king's city, but it doesn't matter." Chu Yuan said, "There is only one younger brother left, and he has the grace to save his life. I will not force him."
"That's right, it's pretty good in this valley." Sixi said fair, "medical skills are also superb." After living in these days, his belly has gone down a lot, and his walking has become much lighter.
"Your Majesty, Fat Grandpa." The little boy in Qionghua Valley ran over. He was an outcast adopted by Ye Jin on weekdays. He was so young that he didn't know that the emperor was going to salute. Before, "Someone sent it to the gate of the valley just now, saying that I want to send it by myself, but I can't tell the master."
"Thank you." Chu Yuan was amused and took it from him.
The little boy continued to run away. Father-in-law Sixi was still worried, and felt that the origin of this thing was unknown, but Yu Guang swept to the lacquer seal of the Southwest Palace, so he didn't say much.
After returning to the bedroom, Chu Yuan sat at the table and gently opened the seal. Open the mahogany box, and inside is a crystal clear light blue jade bead.
Burning Star
Hesitantly picked it up with his hands, it was cool and round, and it seemed to glow under the light.
In the early morning of the third day, Ye Jin put his hands in his sleeves and sent everyone out of Qionghua Valley all the way.
"I will come to see you often in the future." Chu Yuan adjusted his collar for him.
Don't! Ye Jin Wangtian, we don't know each other very well.
Chu Yuan laughed, stretched out his arms and hugged him and patted him, then he got on his horse, and the smoke and dust billowed northward.
Ye Jin hummed and stood on tiptoe to look, until the last figure disappeared, then turned around and walked back.
Nan Moxie said by the side: "As expected of the emperor, there are several groups of people rushing to send it off."
I don't really want to send it, just drop by. The genius doctor Shi Shiran returned to the medicine house, but did not notice what "several groups of people" meant.
Duan Baiyue rode the horse on the top of the mountain, and watched Chu Yuan lead people out of the valley on Shangguan Road, meeting with the shadow guard sent by the Shen family to escort, and then turned the horse's head back to the inn.
Seeing him come back, Duan Yao kept silent, and continued to concentrate on playing with her little bug - looking at this posture, she knew that she must not be able to bring back her sweetheart, maybe she would run away with him, and only fools would get bad luck.
Duan Baiyue went into his bedroom without saying a word.
Duan Yao immediately made up the scene where her brother fell on the bed and cried, which was very touching.
"Little Prince." Duan Nian came in with a few packets of snacks, "I just bought it, do you want to try it?"
"You really can't tell me, who was the person who sent my brother back that day?" Duan Yao grabbed his hand and didn't let it go.
Duan Nian did not change his face: "I really don't know."
"Could it be Emperor Chu's bodyguard?" Duan Yao thought wildly with her cheeks propped up.
Duan Nian calmly said: "Well, probably."
Duan Yao continued to be extremely puzzled while eating snacks.
Even if it is a man, the Emperor Chu of the sixteen border states can give it, so why can't this bodyguard
Also very incomprehensible.
