Xuanyuan Qingfeng closed her eyes in the carriage, seemingly indifferent, but her mood was in a state of upheaval. When she opened her eyes and saw the young man in the white-headed white python slowly sitting back in the carriage, she asked with a smile, "You have worked so hard for so many years, and you practiced secretly again." Dao, just wait for this day?"

The carriage moved slowly, and Xu Fengnian ignored her at all. Xuanyuan Qingfeng is used to confronting this guy with needlepoints, and it would be uncomfortable not to stab him, so he continued to ask: "The capital doesn't dare to touch the king of Beiliang, even if you have a firm foothold in Beiliang, go Taian City will not be drowned in spittle in the future? When you meet loyal loyal ministers who provoke you face to face, or some sons of Beijing officials who earn their reputation by stepping on you, will you avoid their edge and do it yourself?"

"Also, apart from the Linlang King Zhao Ao who deprived the feudal lands after his death without heirs, and your lifelong enemy Chen Zhibao, there are five other feudal lords who are covetous, and most of them are enemies with Beiliang, not to mention that Tai'an City is the territory of Han Diao Temple , if I stand by at that time, you will only be left with that celestial phenomenon, and the human cat is good at pointing at mysterious and killing celestial phenomena, aren't you throwing yourself into a trap? I'm really not afraid to wait for twenty years, and in the end one day the king of Beiliang Didn't make it?"

Xu Fengnian kept his mouth shut.

Xuanyuan Qingfeng probably became lonely after going crazy, and finally caught someone who thought he could sit on an equal footing. He talked as much as a married woman, and didn't think there was anything wrong with a one-man show. , asked with a playful look: "Who will you marry as the concubine in the future?"

Xu Fengnian frowned and said, "Xuanyuan Qingfeng, can't you calm down a bit? Why don't you drive?"

Half of Xuanyuan Qingfeng's face slanted out of the bronze mirror, her eyes were purple, her lips were scarlet, and she was alluring and beautiful. She smiled at Xu Fengnian, "Aren't you afraid that I will take you directly to Guniu Dagang?"

Xu Fengnian raised the curtain, and in his field of vision was a desolate scene of fallen vegetation. When the frost in the north land, stinging insects bent down and drilled into the mud. If it were in the south, the cicadas would have been silent and the lotus would have died. For some reason, Xu Fengnian remembered the first time he went out to travel. Including this trip to Beijing, he traveled away from home four times in total. It seemed that the first time was the most desolate, but it was also most memorable. Half of Xuanyuan Qingfeng's face protruded from the mirror, and his eyes flickered, staring straight at this young man with early blooming hair. Xu Fengnian finally opened his mouth and said: "I do business with you, and the price is clearly marked, and I don't mind if you take advantage of it, but if you are not satisfied, you will watch the show when it is time for you to make a move. I have plenty of ways to make your life worse than death."

Xuanyuan Qingfeng laughed loudly: "You threaten me?"

Xu Fengnian's eyes were cold, and the next moment, the red robe like a big bright red peony slid into the carriage in an instant, holding the purple clothes in six arms, a woman and a genitals flew out of the carriage at high speed, after a short incense stick, Xuanyuan Qingfeng returned to the carriage with gloomy eyes , The corner of the mouth oozes blood. For the next ten days, before Lidong, neither of them said a word.

In Tai'an City, the center of Wei Wei's world, an unremarkable carriage was parked outside the door, mixed with the busy traffic, and couldn't earn a cold glance. During this period of time, the city of Zhongtian was extremely lively. Firstly, Old Master Song’s family suffered turmoil, and the building collapsed almost overnight. There were a lot of discussions in the streets and alleys. His reputation in history is only a small matter, not to mention when he was so angry, even the second wife of the Song Dynasty and Xiao Chufeng were affected by Chi Yu, and they were hugged by the court to the end. The whole family left the capital with their clothes packed up. The people who saw him off at that time were officials from six ministries of three provinces , plus the scholars of the Imperial College, plus many relatives and relatives of the emperor who do not hold power, there are two to three thousand people. After the Song family lost power, it was an even more grand event that the five kings entered the capital. King Zhao Sui of Jiaodong entered the capital first, followed by King Zhao Ying of Huainan, followed by King Zhao Yi of Guangling, King Zhao Xun of Jing'an and King Zhao Bing of Yanchi. This made the vassal mansion and the senior officials such as the Minister of Rites and the Minister in charge of the guest ceremonies very busy, and it is estimated that they all lost several catties. But if we really want to talk about the big sensation, it is the first time that Chen Zhibao in white clothes from Xishu, who is not the vassal king Yousheng vassal, rode into the city, since the white-clothed monk Li Beangxin was so deserted for the first time. A soldier in white clothes and a white horse, a bottle of plum wine, even those old enemies of Beiliang who had only heard of their names before, after seeing them with their own eyes, were deeply impressed by their unparalleled demeanor, let alone God knows who provoked both sides of the main road. How many women screamed and went crazy, and the shrewd flower sellers made a lot of money. Don't care if you deny the man in white, just close your eyes and talk nonsense, tout a few good words to death, and you will surely win the favor of everyone from the ladies and the rich. The money was cheated out of the hands of the daughter.

When Xu Fengnian lifted the curtain and looked up at the majestic city, he said calmly: "I didn't want to get off the car at the Huitou Pavilion, because I was afraid of disappointing their expectations. Your situation in Huishan is different from mine in Beiliang. Sometimes Let me vent my anger on you, you are a heroine who is determined to reach the top of martial arts, don't be as knowledgeable as a layman like me who is not a master."

Xuanyuan Qingfeng, who originally planned not to say a single word to him during this trip to the capital, said softly, "Why don't you become the emperor, and before I can enter the celestial phenomenon realm, I will give my life to you."

Xu Fengnian smiled and said, "Suddenly I thought of a good way to take revenge on me for you. After you got out of the car, you started yelling that the prince of Beiliang wants to rebel and proclaim himself emperor. I'm sure I can't bear to walk around."

Before Xuanyuan Qingfeng could speak, Xu Fengnian waved his hands behind him and said, "Don't take it seriously."

Xu Fengnian said to Qingniao: "Go to Xiamawei Posthouse."

Putting down the curtain, Xuanyuan Qingfeng frowned and said, "Don't you let the officials of the Ministry of Rites make a big splash?"

Xu Fengnian smiled and said, "Lu Daolin, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, and my Xu family are in-laws. I'll just pay a visit when the time comes."

Xuanyuan Qingfeng said with a smile: "The national law is really not as good as the family law."

Xu Fengnian said helplessly: "Don't open a dyeing workshop just to give you some color."

Xuanyuan Qingfeng asked abruptly: "Have you not talked sweetly to a woman for many years?"

Xu Fengnian closed his eyes, "I'm too hungry to think about it."

After handing in the certificate of residence, the carriage slowly drove into the main gate of Tai'an City. The grand main road that can be driven side by side by ten horse-drawn carriages leads directly to Miyagi. "That's all."

Xu Feng said with a young smile: "If you read history books and record a person, an event, and a battle in tens of thousands, you will feel that it is the same. Only when you are on the scene, you will know the ups and downs. For example, if I died in any place before , the history books only record the saying that Xu Fengnian, the eldest son of Beiliang, has no virtue and no talent. But I sat next to you and walked all the way, how many times did you have the involuntary murderous intention?"

Xuanyuan Qingfeng sneered with squinting eyes: "Hey, you can still speak the truth."

Xu Fengnian smiled knowingly: "You have wronged me for what you said. Before Wen Hua and Wen Hua were chased and beaten by your servants in the Lantern Market, did I say anything less? I almost broke my tongue, but it was inevitable One hit."

The corners of Xuanyuan Qingfeng's mouth raised slightly.

Tai'an City is really big. The main gate of Tai'an City and Xiamawei Post Station have not yet crossed half of the city, but it feels like they have walked back and forth from any state city in Beiliang several times.

Tong Ziliang, the Master Zhuoyi of the Xiamawei Posthouse, has not had a good night's sleep in half a decade, and he is afraid that he will miss His Royal Highness's arrival. He is an old member of Beiliang, and before he retires from the army, he is not considered a soldier and cannot be called a general. General, as the person in charge of the post house, he is like a fish in water, and he has settled down in the capital where every inch of land is expensive. He is even more generous than many Beijing officials who have been officials for a lifetime and have not been able to buy a mansion. He bought a small house in the southwest corner Zhaizi, his grandson has also been studying for many years, and Tong Zhuoyi is looking forward to his little baby's success in the imperial examinations, so he has no further wishes. The only regret is that this post house is replaced by new posts, newcomers replace old ones, and until today, except for him, who is an old man in the Beiliang Army, no one can be regarded as a pawn under the general's command. Li can always have a drink with his old brothers, but now he can't find someone to drink with.

Tong Ziliang was standing outside the posthouse under the old pagoda tree with long claws, looking forward to it. His subordinates all laughed at him for being sentimental. Even if the notorious son of Beiliang entered the capital, he would stay in a wealthy mansion specially arranged by the Ministry of Rites. The worst thing is that there is no shortage of beauties, wine and food. Would you be happy to live in a post house? But Tong Zhuo didn't need to explain anything, just stood there. He was waiting for the king of Beiliang to return with meritorious service, and the generals of Beiliang to return in glory. The only time he was disappointed and did not wait for anyone was during the battle of Xileibi. There were a total of 14 generals including General Feng and Ma Ling. When we went outside the palace together, General Feng did not return to the post house, and the generals who had retired from the Northern Liang Army did not return to their respective homes either, they all died.

The carriage stopped.

A handsome young man with gray hair stepped down, walked towards Tong Ziliang, and said with a gentle smile, "Tong Zhuo Yi, you have worked hard."

Tong Ziliang asked in astonishment: "His Royal Highness?"

As soon as he asked, Tong Ziliang wanted to slap himself a few big mouths, and took a closer look at the strange but noble white satin python suit of the man in front of him. Otherwise, which royal relatives would be willing to come to Mawei to find it uncomfortable? Tong Ziliang knelt down on his knees, his eyes slightly astringent, and said in a deep voice: "Get off the horse, Tong Ziliang pays homage to His Royal Highness!"

Xu Fengnian helped him up, and said with a smile: "Xu Xiao asked me to send a message to Tong Zhuoyi, 'Be careful with your little girl in the boudoir, don't let Xu Fengnian meet her, so as not to be harmed.'"

After Tong Ziliang got up and was stunned for a while, he couldn't help laughing, and it was a little difficult to endure.

Xu Fengnian walked towards the gate of the post house together with him, and said: "I've been living here for a while, I can come here as Xu Xiao came here before, no need to make any special arrangements."

Tong Ziliang nodded and said: "It must be done according to His Royal Highness's wishes."

The young man Wu behind him whispered, "Master Zhuoyi, remember to give me more food."

Tong Ziliang laughed loudly, "Don't worry about it, you can have enough food, wine and meat."

Behind them are blue birds in green clothes and Xuanyuan purple clothes, which are very eye-catching.

Xu Fengnian suddenly turned his head and saw a middle-aged poor man wearing a pure yang scarf in the distance, and behind him was a Lingxiu boy carrying an ebony sword box. Xu Fengnian first asked Wu to follow Tong Ziliang into the post house to eat, walked towards the military servant who had become very popular in the capital in just two years, and said with a smile: "I have seen Tangxi Sword Immortal."

Minister of the Ministry of War, Lu Baijie from the Lu family.

Tangxi Sword Immortal smiled and said: "Fortunately, His Highness didn't ask me how much benevolence, righteousness and morality this rotten scholar sells. Now that I am an official in Beijing, I have been called too many servants, and I almost forgot that I am a swordsman. Coming here with a sword in hand, I originally thought of disregarding the face of the elders to learn sword skills with you, but I never thought that I would humiliate myself."

Xu Fengnian flattered and said: "Lu Shilang has a unique eye."

Lu Baijie shook his head helplessly and said, "If you become a master, you will also have a thick skin."

Xu Fengnian accepted all these words with a smile, and asked, "Go in and sit down?"

Lu Baijie nodded and said, "I just want to ask you some questions about swordsmanship."

Xu Fengnian blushed and said, "Aren't Uncle Lu afraid to ask Yu Blind?"

Lu Baijie said indifferently: "Not to mention that Li Chungang personally gave the green snake with two sleeves, and Deng Tai'a gave him twelve swords. No matter how I, Lu Baijie, am the frog at the bottom of the well, I should know that even if the fifth raccoon is standing up, let me stab a few swords. I might not be able to stab him to death."

Xu Fengnian remained silent.

Lu Baijie joked: "Don't worry, no one here in the capital believes that you really killed the Lord of Tibing Mountain. They all say that it was done by the dead soldiers of the King of Beiliang, and it has nothing to do with you."

Just as Xu Fengnian was about to speak, the book boy with the sword yelled in shock: "Sir, there is a ghost on the locust tree!"

Lu Baijie turned around and tapped his forehead.

A bright red robe hangs from the leafy Longclaw old locust tree.

Lu Baijie didn't even look at it, and said softly, "Referring to Xuan?"

Xu Fengnian shook his head and said, "It's already a celestial phenomenon."

Lu Baijie laughed and said, "I am worthy of being called the frog at the bottom of the well."

Xu Fengnian held back his smile, while Lu Baijie was wondering. After seeing the Huishan purple-clothed woman, he sighed deeply. With Tangxi Sword Immortal's excellent state of mind that has been quiet for many years, it is inevitable that he has mixed feelings. There are those old men with white beards and eyebrows on the left and right. After seeing you today, I realized that the small success in the officialdom will be a big disappointment in martial arts. If I had known it earlier, I would not have come."

In late autumn, the air in the capital was high and clean. Seeing that there were many people in the posthouse Tong Ziliang, he simply moved the table to the courtyard and did everything by himself, preventing the people in the posthouse from getting close to the eldest son Xu Fengnian at all.

The old pagoda tree in the courtyard and the dragon's claw pagoda tree outside the gate are a pair.

The people at the table under the tree are Xu Fengnian who went to Beijing to watch the ceremony, Lu Baijie, the servant of the Ministry of War, Xuanyuan Qingfeng in Huishan, Qingniao, the young dead soldier Wu, and the book boy with the sword.

There is one more.

The book boy pointed to the gloomy old locust tree with a pale face, and said with great aggrievedness: "Look, sir, I didn't lie to you, there is really a female ghost on the tree!"
