The matter that Tang Yueshan and the old marquis went to the border together was settled.
One of them belonged to Empress Dowager Zhuang's camp, and the other was the emperor's confidant. In the past, they didn't deal with each other, but since being fooled by Empress Dowager Zhuang, Tang Yueshan's hatred was well worth it by the fisherman who wanted to compete with snipe and clam. The mastermind behind the scenes sucked away.
Empress Dowager Zhuang told Tang Yueshan that the mastermind behind the scenes was Concubine Jing. Although Concubine Jing was dead, she had a party, and they were the remnants of the former dynasty hidden in the frontier.
Tang Yueshan went all out to kill the enemy this time.
The old man has no objection to the arrangement this time. He and Tang Yueshan are one in the dark and the other in the open. The division of labor is clear and they do not interfere with each other.
Destroying the chaotic party and saving Ning'an are imminent, and the emperor hopes that the two will set off as soon as possible.
After leaving the palace, the old marquis took a carriage back to the house. He stopped the carriage when he passed Qinghe Academy. Unfortunately, Qinghe Academy had already finished school. Gu Yan and Gu Xiaoshun had gone to Nan Shi Niang and Master Lu to study art.
"Forget it, let's go back to the manor." The old man waved his hand, paused, thought of something, and then said, "Wait, go to Taihe Martial Arts Hall."
There were many pedestrians on the road at the moment, and the road was a little congested.
"Master, the martial arts hall is here," said the coachman.
The old man got off the carriage.
He came to look for Brother Gu. He was about to leave the capital. He wanted to say goodbye to Brother Gu.
However, after he went in, he asked the people inside and found that Brother Gu hadn't come to the martial arts hall for many days.
"Didn't he play well? Why didn't he come all of a sudden?" The old marquis muttered.
The boy in the martial arts hall said: "This... To be honest, I saw him with a man named Lao He that day. That Lao He was a shopkeeper in the underground martial arts field. He always came to us to find experts and poached a lot. Well, the owner of the museum made him angry, but we can't afford to offend the underground martial arts field, so we can only let him go."
The old man frowned: "Underground martial arts?"
Today is Gu Jiao's tenth match. She picked the opponent off the ring with a beautiful carbine and won the duel.
This teenage boy in green, wearing a mask and holding a long spear that blinded people, made a name for himself in the underground martial arts field.
I can't tell if it's because she walks too arrogantly or fights too well, or if her red tassel is too ugly. In a word, everyone dislikes it at first, and then the real fragrance scene appears one after another.
The old man happened to see Gu Jiao's last scene here.
Played beautifully.
The young man stood on the ring, his eyes were clear and heroic, as if glowing.
The old man's heart suddenly felt a sense of relief from his grandfather, and he didn't know why.
Before walking off the ring, Gu Jiao received her first exclusive small sticker, with a big word engraved in her native language, which means that from today, she is a certified first-level master of the underground martial arts field!
Gu Jiao hung the small card on her purse and shook her head.
happy!
Looking at her shaking head, a smile appeared in the eyes of the old marquis: "Brother Gu!"
He strode past.
Gu Jiao looked up at him and asked him with her eyes, why are you here
The old marquis actually understood, he felt amazing himself, he smiled and said: "I went to the martial arts hall to find you, they said you came to the underground martial arts field, I was a little worried about you, but I just watched you fight, yes I've been thinking too much."
Gu Jiao held the Hongying gun and it was inconvenient to write, so she gave the Hongying gun to him first.
Weapons are the private property of warriors, and under normal circumstances, no one is allowed to touch them. Gu Jiao's action shows her trust in the old marquis.
But the old man was not moved by her trust. On the contrary, the center of his eyebrows was almost wrinkled into Sichuan characters.
Is this, is this still the magic weapon of the Yan Kingdom that he gave her
How can it be so ugly
What the hell did it go through!
Gu Jiao took out a small notebook and wrote, "Are you looking for me for something?"
The old marquis decisively looked away from the red ying gun, he was afraid that if he looked at it more, he would be ugly and blind.
He said, "I'm leaving the capital, and I want to see you before I leave."
Gu Jiao didn't enter the palace today, so I don't know about his being sent to the frontier for the time being.
Although they were brothers, she never liked to snoop on people's privacy, so she didn't ask him what he was doing in Beijing, but just wrote: "Will you be going for a long time?"
The old man nodded: "I'm afraid I won't be able to come back this year."
The frontier fortress is a long way, and it will take some time to investigate the remnants of the previous dynasty and settle down on Princess Ning'an.
Gu Jiao looked at him, as if waiting for a more specific answer.
He continued: "If it's fast, you can come back in the spring, and if it's slow, you can come back in a year."
"It's been so long." Gu Jiao wrote, "I'll treat you to dinner and practice it for you!"
The old man smiled heartily: "Okay! It just so happens that I have one last move to teach you. The move you just played in the ring was too urgent. Next time you encounter this situation, just like this... "
The two of them ate this meal for a full two hours, mainly because the old marquis was instructing Gu Jiao, and Gu Jiao might be irritable if he listened to it, but he listened to this with relish.
The old marquis felt that he could teach a little more, but unfortunately it was getting late, little brother Gu should go back, and he should also start preparing for leaving the capital.
The old marquis didn't let his brother pay for the meal, he went downstairs to settle the bill.
The old man was cute as long as he wasn't her grandfather, Gu Jiao thought about it, and took off the small card from her waist and handed it to him.
The old man looked puzzled: "What is this going to do?"
He was asking what it was for, not what it was.
Obviously, he knew this token.
Gu Jiao didn't think about it too much, she picked up the small notebook at hand, and wrote, "My first master token, I'll give it to you!"
The old marquis asked, "Are you willing to give me such a precious thing?"
Only after winning ten games has such a token, and it is the first master token in his life. The old man knows how much this token means to him.
The old man thought too much.
Gu Jiao felt that she was about to get the second-level master's token, so this piece... It doesn't matter if she sends it out.
The main reason is to let her spend money to buy him gifts to practice, she is reluctant.
The old man saw that he really gave it to himself... but not sincere? No need to spend money, the old man accepted it graciously.
"It's getting late, let's go back." He smiled and stood up.
Gu Jiao suddenly thought of something, and wrote in the notebook: "By the way, last time you..."
Writing here, she crossed it out and rewritten: "The last time your friend said you were going to elope with the woman you liked, why didn't you write anything down?"
This is something that the old man took the initiative to mention to her, not to inquire about his privacy.
The old man's body froze slightly, and in a place where Gu Jiao could not see, he squeezed the armrest of the chair with both hands: "No elopement."
"Why?" Gu Jiao wrote.
The old marquis opened his mouth, looked out the window and said with difficulty, "...she's gone."
Gu Jiao: Oh.
Gu Jiao didn't ask any further questions.
Gu Jiao didn't take the carriage today, and the old man wanted to see her off. Naturally, she couldn't reveal her residence. She shook her head and refused, indicating that she had other things to do.
Seeing that Gu Jiao didn't seem to be a senseless person, the old man gave a few words and got in the carriage and left.
In the first ten days of August, Tang Yueshan was ordered to go to the frontier fortress. In name, as a minister, he went to confer Princess Ning'an as Princess Ning'an of the first-rank town, and the consort as Marquis of Wu'an.
His Majesty also asked Tang Yueshan to bring a lot of rewards and supplies for the winter at the frontier.
In fact, rewards and materials are second, and the army that escorts them is the key.
The old marquis mixed in the team incognito and accompanied him as an aide in the Tang Yueshan mansion.
The day before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Gu Jiao went to the underground martial arts field again.
She is now a first-level expert, and can fight against people two levels higher than herself. Today, I don't know if I should say that she is lucky. The first person to fight against is a third-level Turkic swordsman.
The Turks' physical fitness is extremely strong, and Gu Jiao felt an unusual pressure as soon as he played.
Sure enough, the higher you go, the stronger your opponent will be.
Gu Jiao tested the opponent's strength with her first punch. She was forced back a few steps by the opponent, and the corner of her mouth was inadvertently bitten.
Gu Jiao smiled, it was interesting.
Next, Gu Jiao planned to make a real move, but before she could make a move, a black figure jumped onto the ring like a ghost. Everyone didn't understand what was going on, and the Turkic swordsman was kicked by him. fly!
The Turkic swordsman fell into the crowd, fell to the ground, vomited blood and fainted on the spot!
"What's the matter? Who is making trouble!"
The martial judge who knocked on the gong hurriedly stepped forward to blast the master of Xuanyi down, and the master grabbed his neck and lifted it up high.
When the masters of the martial arts field saw that something was wrong, they would rush up to besiege this person. Gu Jiao was surprised. Wasn't this the Dragon Shadow Guard who was more powerful than the Emperor's Dragon Shadow Guard whom he met in the woods that night when he rescued his aunt
Why is he here? He also kicked his opponent off the stage
Shouldn't he think he was being bullied
Gu Jiao felt that this guess was extremely absurd. After all, it was not a relative, not an ancestor, so he could not help herself, but no matter what, he didn't kill herself like last time.
Gu Jiao walked to his side, hesitated for a while, and patted his wrist gently, motioning him to put the person down.
He looked at Gu Jiao, and then at Wu Ju, who was about to be strangled by him, and actually let it go.
Gu Jiao took out a small notebook and wrote why he came here, but he didn't speak.
Is it illiterate
Gu Jiao touched her chin and looked at him, thinking about how to communicate with him, he turned and walked away.
Gu Jiao: "..."
Are all Long Yingwei so capricious
Gu Jiao apologized to Wu Ju, and promised to pay the medical expenses for the Turkic swordsman, and send him to the Miaoshoutang. Then she jumped off the ring and followed the Dragon Shadow Guard.
Long Yingwei came to the house of the pharmacist in the country of Yan, and then stayed there motionless.
Why is he there
Is his master in it
Is his master the pharmacist in the country of Yan
Gu Jiao pondered for a moment, then walked boldly in front of Long Yingwei.
Long Yingwei didn't drive Gu Jiao away, as if to him, Gu Jiao was just a mass of air, or... something that could exist around him.
Gu Jiao wants to see who his master is. If Long Yingwei is not unique to the Zhao Kingdom royal family, does that mean that he can also buy a Long Yingwei through some channel
Gu Jiao thought so, raised her hand to knock on the door, but was blocked by Long Yingwei's sword hilt.
Can't knock on the door
Can't... disturb the owner inside
It seems that the master gave him an order not to disturb anyone.
Then wait.
Gu Jiao squatted outside the door and stood guard.
Literally squatting, she was bored, and even took out a charcoal pen and drew circles on the ground.
She was drawing and drawing, but with too much force, she broke the charcoal pen, and a piece of the charcoal pen bounced up and slapped on Long Yingwei's mask.
Don't look at it as just a mask, but it's equivalent to slapping the face.
wait, mask
Gu Jiao touched her face, her mask was still there.
She didn't wear a mask in the woods that day, but today she did, and she was wearing black night clothes that day, and green clothes today.
Armed like this, how did Long Yingwei recognize her
Gu Jiao tilted her head to look at Long Yingwei, do you have any special recognition skills
Long Yingwei was masked and paused for a moment, and the look in Gu Jiao's eyes changed for a moment.
He also touched the mask like Gu Jiao did.
It's over, shouldn't he be angry
Should he kill me
It's no wonder that Gu Jiao is so arrogant, it's the fact that this Dragon Shadow Guard has an unstable temperament. The first time he saw her in the woods, he almost killed her, and he even pinched her husband's face!
Gu Jiao can't beat it, and it seems that it's too late to run...
Just as Gu Jiao's brain was racing, thinking about how to get out, the door behind her creaked open.
On the first day of the new year, ask for a wave of guaranteed monthly passes and get off to a good start
