A golden-red poisonous scorpion climbed out of Aunt Jin's sleeve, trying to get some air, but as soon as it appeared, it was stuffed back again.
Ye Jin grabbed his sleeve and stared at it.
want to.
Aunt Jin stood up with a dustpan, and asked kindly and kindly, "I'm going to feed those little things in the Five Poison Pond, Master Ye Gu, would you like to take a look?"
Ye Jin nodded immediately.
Aunt Jin handed over the dustpan: "Then why don't you ask the owner of the valley to help you carry it for a while? When you are old, your arms are useless."
Ye Jin took it in his hand with a "swoosh" and held it very tightly!
Aunt Jin smiled and took the person out of the courtyard.
…
"Are you tired?" Duan Baiyue whispered in his ear in the house, "There is a banquet in the house, but if you find it annoying, let the rest of the people eat it, and I will ask the kitchen to make another and send it here."
"There is a banquet in the house, but you and I are not there?" Chu Yuan stretched out his hand and pushed him away, "I'm not afraid of being told."
"If you can live in the Southwest Mansion, you are all people you can trust." Duan Baiyue said, "Why should you care about this."
"Let's go with everyone." Chu Yuan said, "It's still early, you take me to the house to look around?"
Duan Baiyue nodded, called for hot water to give him a brief scrub, and then took one out of the residence.
Compared with the Imperial Palace, the mansion in the Southwest Mansion is naturally not big, but it is also very imposing. A few years ago, in order to convince people of the ambitions of the Southwest King Langzi, he had always been at odds with the Emperor Chu, so when the house was built, it also imitated the style of the palace. There was a stone bridge and a living spring in the garden, which was exactly the same as the scenery inside the palace. .
"Is it the place where you and I fall in love?" Duan Baiyue asked.
Chu Yuan kicked him: "Nonsense."
"I held hands on the bridge of Wangcheng, isn't it?" Duan Baiyue said.
Chu Yuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "How old was that year." Besides, he didn't intend to get close, but the ground was slippery after the rain in the Imperial Garden, so they just helped each other.
"It doesn't matter, holding hands is my person." Duan Baiyue said, "I have missed you all these years, I will come here to sit and guess what you are doing by the way."
"Go to court, fight, read the book." Chu Yuan held his hand, "otherwise what else can you do?"
"Don't think about me?" Duan Baiyue reminded.
Chu Yuan shook his head firmly.
The King of Southwest sighed from the bottom of his heart.
Chu Yuan pushed him with a smile: "Before I came, I said that there were black and white buildings everywhere in the southwest, but after walking around for so long, I didn't look at any of them, but it was exactly the same as the palace."
"If you want to see it, you have to finish the battle." Duan Baiyue said, "There are many black and white small buildings in and out of the city of Dali. If it can't be done now, the Nanyang troops are in chaos, and Chu Xiang will not wait for us to send troops. It is bound to take the first step, and I am afraid that there will be trouble if I go out rashly."
"Have you received the letter I sent to you earlier?" Chu Yuan sat on the steps of the stone bridge on the spot, and he didn't feel out of place, and the wind was quite comfortable.
"About the Naxi Thorn?" Duan Baiyue sat beside him, "Of course I received it, and I also sent someone to investigate secretly in Baixiang Kingdom and Siam Yuan Kingdom, and just came back the day before yesterday."
"Tell me." Chu Yuan rested his chin on his knee and tilted his head to look at him.
"The distant country of Siam has closed all its ports, no longer allowing merchant ships to enter and leave the country, and no longer allowing its merchants to go out to sea. Although there were some people's grievances when the ban first came out, everyone knew that Da Chu was about to send troops to crusade the rebels. It's not very peaceful, so after ten days and a half months, the country slowly stopped." Duan Baiyue said, "In the DPRK, everything is as usual, Kunda and Jin Shu disappeared, and their family did not go to Wu Deng to cry. , On the contrary, the gate is closed every day, and not even a fly can fly in."
"Is there any rumors spread among the people?" Chu Yuan said, "Kunda is the richest householder, and Jin Shu is the princess of Koryo. If two people with such identities are lost, it should not be said that the people have no reaction at all. "
"There are rumors of course, but they say everything, so everyone won't believe it completely." Duan Baiyue said, "Some people say they were kidnapped by robbers, some people say they were detained by the emperor of Great Chu, and some people say they went overseas. Xianshan treasure hunt, and some people say that they went back to the country of Goryeo, and they went to many different places, at most it was a lively thing."
"Nawa said earlier that Wu Deng is extremely cautious and has great heart for Chu." Chu Yuan said, "If he is really not attracted by Chu Xiang, and now he just remains neutral, then we will send Kunda and Jin Shu. After returning, there should still be a chance to win over the distant country of Siam."
Duan Baiyue nodded: "People from the Southwest House have been staring at Wu Deng secretly, and will send back any news."
"What about the White Elephant Kingdom?" Chu Yuan asked again.
"The White Elephant Country is much more complicated." Duan Baiyue said, "Don't say it, that fake Nava still has some means."
"How?" Chu Yuan sat up straight.
"He has put the queen mother and concubines in the Buddhist hall, in the name of chanting and praying for blessings." Duan Baiyue said, "In this way, all the people who are most likely to find him abnormal have been placed under house arrest, including the palace maids and guards. Let's clean up together, and now the palace is all his people, or simply Chu Xiang's people, and the risk of being seen through is reduced by half."
"What about the minister and the army?" Chu Yuan continued to ask.
"He attracted the prime minister of the White Elephant Country, Nie Yuanshan." Duan Baiyue said, "This man's ancestral home is in Dachu. When he was eight years old, he went to sea with his father and moved to the White Elephant Country. He lived in Shanxi for three years and made a living by writing couples for others. Then he returned to the White Elephant Country."
"Write a pair?" Chu Yuan frowned.
"There are some pairs in the open, but I don't know what he is doing in secret." Duan Baiyue said, "I can only be sure that this person has been bought by Chu Xiang and knows about the fake Nava. He has high prestige, and is extremely vicious in his work. Under his advice, more than half of Baixiangguo's backboned veterans have been sent to prison and exiled. Everyone is in danger, and I am afraid that it will not be long before they will meet with him. Chu Xiang officially formed an alliance."
Chu Yuan said: "Then the previous plan has to be changed. Let's not fight the Emerald and Burmese country first, and start with the White Elephant Country."
"It's not a bad thing." Duan Baiyue said, "The Emerald and Burmese country is covered in white fog, and it would be dangerous to break in rashly. It's also good to practice with the White Elephant Kingdom first, so that the Chu army is familiar with naval battles."
"White Elephant Country, Emerald Burma Country, Xingzhou, plus the tide cliffs in the East China Sea." Chu Yuan asked, "Can it be finished in three years?"
"It didn't take such a long time to hit the north at the beginning." Duan Baiyue stretched out his hand and let him lean on his shoulder, "Three years is too much for Chu Xiang."
"Well." Chu Yuan smiled, "It doesn't matter how long he takes, when he wins, and when will he return to the court."
The sound of footsteps came from behind, and then stopped for a moment. After a while, it was a very fine rustling sound.
"Come out." Duan Baiyue said.
Duan Yao stopped the steps she was retreating, carefully got out of the woods, and smiled dryly: "I just want to take a shortcut to get out of the house." He didn't intend to disturb you on purpose.
"What are you doing out of the house?" Duan Baiyue was dissatisfied, "I ran into the street as soon as I got home."
"I'm not here to play." Duan Yao defended, "I'm going to find Blacksmith Wang."
Blacksmith Wang is the best blacksmith in Dali City. The people from Wangcheng have seen the world. The materials are really good and the price is low. If you want to buy an iron pot, you have to order it three months in advance, and a poem will be engraved on the bottom of the pot. It looks very cultural and popular with big guys.
"Playing horseshoes?" Duan Baiyue asked.
"No." Duan Yao waved his hand, "I'm going to punch between my fingers."
"Why do you suddenly think of using this." Duan Baiyue frowned, "I don't want the Cloud Splitting Knife?"
"Of course!" Duan Yao's eyes widened, "It's not for me, it's for others, Wu Sanlei."
Duan Baiyue: "..."
Who is Wu Sanlei
Chu Yuan explained: "I met a reckless man on the way, I want Yaoer to accept him as a disciple, but Yaoer seems to be reluctant."
Duan Baiyue's eyes suddenly turned cold.
Duan Yao was shocked and quickly said: "No, I am very willing."
"You still don't want to accept an apprentice?" Duan Baiyue stood up, "Go, go and see what it looks like. If you don't want to accept it, I will teach him personally."
Duan Yao: "..."
Chu Yuan wanted to laugh a little, seeing that it was still early in the sky, he could go to the military camp to have a look.
So the group left the house and headed to the Chu army camp outside the city. The tent has not been fully set up yet, and it looks a bit messy. Duan Yao looked for it from a high place, and then said loudly, "Wu Sanlei! Come here!"
Duan Baiyue followed his gaze.
A burly man was rushing past, covering the sky and sun with a waist circumference of three feet. It seemed that every time he took a step, the ground would sag a little.
"Master!" Wu Sanlei was as imposing as a rainbow, and his voice was like a bell saluting.
"This is my brother." Duan Yao pointed at his dear elder brother, "Well, he said he wanted to accept you as a disciple."
Duan Baiyue: "..."
Duan Baiyue: "..."
Duan Baiyue: "..."
Duan Xiaowangye's brother, is that the famous Southwest King? Wu Sanlei gasped, feeling that he was about to be overwhelmed by a huge surprise.
Duan Baiyue coughed twice.
Duan Yao looked at him sincerely, gloating with misfortune. It's this person, you just said, you can't go back on it, take it away quickly.
Duan Baiyue said calmly, "What's your name?"
"Go back to the King of the Southwest, Wu Sanlei is here!" The voice was still like a cannonball, and he wanted to kneel as soon as his clothes were lifted, "Master!"
Duan Baiyue: "..."
I didn't say that before, such a dumb apprentice.
"I don't want it anymore." Chu Yuan said lightly beside him, "Yao'er has not finished teaching you the kung fu, and it is not appropriate to recognize another master. Let's talk about this in the future, get up first."
"Also." Wu Sanlei didn't feel disappointed, anyway, everyone's Kung Fu here is higher than his own, and no one will suffer.
Duan Baiyue breathed a sigh of relief.
Duan Yao pouted in her heart, it turns out that no matter how much her sister-in-law hurts her, at critical moments, she will only help her brother.
very hurt.
