Thirteen years ago, King Rong An and his concubine died in battle. It was Nan Qi's loss and the whole country mourned.
Although I knew that someone was planning behind the scenes to bring disaster to the Southern Qi, but I didn't expect that the bigger reason was because of this imperial edict.
Su Fengnuan sighed with emotion and emotion, the former emperor passed the throne to King Rong An, but King Rong An refused to accept the imperial edict, and now the current emperor obviously has a son, but he passed the throne to Ye Chang. It's really touching. They are all for the Southern Qi Dynasty. Presumably the King Rong An back then, apart from not being able to bear the turmoil in the imperial court, was also partly because he felt that the current emperor had a gentle temperament and a kind heart!
In their view, that position is reserved for those who are virtuous.
Ye Chang asked Zheng Yun, "You packed the postmaster's clothes, but did you find anything suspicious?"
Zheng Yun shook his head, "Go back to Ye Shizi, there is no more." After finishing the sentence, he said, "However, before I came, I saw that his room and study room seemed to have been searched. I was thinking that everyone in the Hejian Station had been killed, and I felt that It should be done by the third son and the government to investigate the case, if there is such a secret now, maybe someone searched for something."
Ye Chang nodded, and said to him, "Only the three of us know about this matter, and we are not allowed to spread it outside."
Zheng Yun nodded solemnly, "For such a big matter, if you lend me ten heads, you don't dare to spread it to the outside world. You must keep your mouth shut. Don't worry, my son and miss."
Ye Chang nodded and asked him, "Have you been to Qiufeng Mountain?"
Zheng Yun said, "I've been there, it's a piece of scorched earth, and I didn't find anything."
Ye Chang turned to Su Fengnuan and asked, "Do you still want to go to Qiufeng Mountain?"
Su Fengnuan took a look at the sky and said, "It's still early, let's go and have a look."
Ye Chang nodded.
The two sent Zheng Yun away, and asked Ye Xi, Qian Han, and He Zhi to take people to guard the place where they stayed, and then rode to Qiufeng Mountain.
Qiufeng Mountain is indeed a piece of scorched earth, with broken tiles and wreckage everywhere, and it is pitch black. Several heavy snowfalls in winter did not wash away the blood stains on the wreckage of broken tiles.
Su Fengnuan and Ye Chang walked along Qiufeng Mountain and turned around.
Ye Chang saw that Su Fengnuan had been frowning ever since she went to Qiufeng Mountain and looked at the blood everywhere, and asked her, "What's the matter? Did you find anything?"
Su Fengnuan reached out and touched the blood on the wall, and said to him, "My third brother's martial arts are not bad, and the martial arts of the guards you sent him are not bad either. However, my third brother was seriously injured by poisoning and almost lost his life, but All the guards you sent to him were lost in Qiufeng Mountain. Everyone in Qiufeng Mountain was bloodbathed."
"So?" Ye Chang looked at her, "What did you think of? Or did you find something?"
"These bloodstains..." Su Fengnuan said, suddenly pulled out the Hidden Sword, and swiped at the soil on the ground. After the heavy snow, the soil melted by the snow was scratched by her sword, and flung on the wall, like falling plum blossoms. little bit.
She put away her sword and said to Ye Chang, "Look, the soil stained by my sword on the wall has blossomed, how is it different from the blood stains on this wall?"
Ye Chang narrowed his eyes and said, "There is no difference."
Su Fengnuan said, "That's right, when a sword is drawn on the ground, it is no different from when a sword is drawn on a person, soil and blood." After finishing the words, she said calmly, "I used the Nine Desperate Forms of Wangdi Mountain .”
Ye Chang was already very smart, but when Su Fengnuan just picked up mud with his sword and stained the wall, he understood. He also turned his eyes cold, "So, the people who bloodbathed Qiufeng Mountain used the unique knowledge of Wangdi Mountain?"
Su Fengnuan nodded, "Otherwise, my third brother, your Fuwei, will not be an opponent. Even if there are a large number of people in black, they will not be in such a terrible and miserable situation that day."
Ye Chang said, "Wangdi Mountain...Could it be that Qiufeng Mountain was created by the eldest prince again?"
Su Feng said warmly, "I was thinking, who is the master of the eldest prince? He is better than Lin Ke in martial arts, so it is impossible for him to learn from Lin Ke."
Ye Chang said, "In the past, the crown prince lived in the East Palace. Because of his weak health, he fell ill every now and then. Concubine Yue Gui loved her son, so it was rare to see him once a month. Presumably during those days when he was pretending to be weak, he was learning martial arts and practicing kung fu. It is impossible for your master to live in the capital for a long time to teach the crown prince because of traveling with you and your cousin. Concubine Yue Guishan learned from the Ghost Mountain School, and she only knows a little about Wangdishan martial arts. It is impossible to pass on his Wangdishan martial arts to the fullest If it is so powerful, it must be because someone from Wangdi Mountain has lived in the capital all year round."
Su Fengnuan said, "However, as far as I know, everyone in Wangdi Mountain doesn't like the capital and doesn't want to come to Beijing. There are three ancestors, four uncles and a group of brothers. Years ago, Seventh Senior Brother and Eleventh Senior Brother wouldn’t have come to Beijing to protect me if it wasn’t because I was seriously injured and weak.”
Ye Chang said, "Master Zhanyi lived in Wangdi Mountain. Although he has passed away for many years, Wangdi Mountain may hide many secrets. Secrets that even you, the successor, don't know. After we go to Wangdi Mountain, maybe Can solve one or two."
Su Fengnuan nodded.
The two didn't stay any longer, went down Qiufeng Mountain, and returned to the place where they stayed.
There was nothing to say all night, and it was very peaceful. On the second day, at dawn, the team set off and left Hejian County.
In the carriage, Su Fengnuan didn't sleep well last night, so she didn't embroider the wedding dress today, but lay lazily on the carriage to catch up on sleep.
Ye Chang whispered in her ear, "I didn't tire you yesterday, why are you so tired?"
Su Fengnuan gave her a look with a smile, and said in a low voice, "You didn't tire me, but I also felt tired in my heart. I always thought that Wangdi Mountain was a place away from the world. I didn't expect it, but it wasn't always so .”
Ye Chang rubbed her head, "It's useless to think so much, you just need to know that there is no real pure land in this world, where there are people, there will be disputes, even if you live in seclusion in the mountains, you will still be haunted by ferocious beasts. How can it be really quiet?"
Su Fengnuan nodded, "It makes sense."
Ye Chang said, "Whether it's Wangdi Mountain, Lingyun Temple, or even Lushan Academy, where many talented students are trained, there are disputes everywhere."
Su Fengnuan suddenly said, "Yes, Lushan Academy. It reminds me of Master Yunshan. I always feel that he is a person who lives in the world and transcends the world, just like the master. You say, he will Don't you know something?"
Ye Chang said thoughtfully, "He judged everyone in "The Legend of Beauty", and he rated everyone very well. There are probably very few things in the world that he doesn't know." After speaking, he suddenly thought of something, yes She said, "Now you should tell me? What are those two sentences that you erased?"
Su Fengnuan smiled and said, "Are you so curious?"
Ye Chang said, "Naturally, otherwise I wouldn't have asked you again and again."
Su Fengnuan smiled and said in a low voice, "Since you are so curious, I will tell you today."
Ye Chang said, "Listen carefully."
Su Fengnuan leaned close to his ear and whispered in a low voice, "Reading poems and books in vain is a waste of talent, and being a romantic in the pile of brocades, you can pour the country's talent into the world, and the lord of purple and gold begs the world."
Ye Chang was taken aback.
Su Fengnuan looked at him, stretched out his hand to gently stroke his eyebrows, "Look, should I erase the last two sentences for you?"
Ye Chang was silent for a moment, then said, "Well erased."
Su Fengnuan said, "The old Taoist priest Yunshan can tell fortunes. I used to really think that maybe he calculated something from your fate. Now, it seems that maybe he knew something a long time ago, so there is such a thing." Word."
Ye Chang said, "It's hard to say."
Su Fengnuan nodded, "Yes, it's hard to say."
Ye Chang looked at her, "What about you? What did he say about you in "The Legend of Beauty", and you tore it up because of your anger."
Su Fengnuan said, "He really has nothing good to say about me."
"I'll listen." Ye Chang looked at her with a smile.
Su Fengnuan shook his head, "Don't say it."
Ye Chang stared at him, "How long are you going to keep it from me?"
Su Fengnuan smiled and blinked, thought for a while, approached him lightly, pecked him lightly with his lips, and whispered with a smile, "How about the wedding night?"
Ye Chang's heart softened, and he nodded happily, "Okay."
The carriage moved forward slowly, and the two of them were talking to each other in the car, the words were very low and soft, the spring wind was blowing hard outside, the horseshoes were moving forward neatly, the wheels of the car were pressing against the ground and making a rumbling sound, Naturally, no one could hear the two talking.
They walked for another two days, and on this day, they came to Peicheng, the place where General Su was intercepted and killed on his way back to Beijing, and the place where Sun Zeyu came to investigate the case but has not heard back yet.
When the team came to Peicheng, the officials of Peicheng had already received the news that Ye Shang and Su Fengnuan had left Beijing, and they came to greet them at the gate of the city.
Ye Chang picked up the curtain of the car and took a look. He didn't see Sun Zeyu, but only the officials in Peicheng. He asked softly, "Where is Mr. Sun from the Prime Minister's Mansion? Is he all right?"
When everyone heard that he asked Sun Zeyu, they looked at each other. The city guard of Peicheng hesitated for a moment, and replied in a low voice, "Back to Ye Shizi, Mr. Sun has contracted an illness since he came to Peicheng. It's something unspeakable, and he is still recuperating."
"Huh?" Ye Chang raised his eyebrows, "What disease?"
The city guard of Peicheng coughed and said, "It's an unspeakable disease. If you and Ms. Su are resting in the city today, after visiting Mr. Sun, you will understand. I'm sorry... I can't say anything about it."
