Xue Wuyi really didn't have to send someone to kill the envoy, because someone was more concerned about the safety of the Northern War princess than him.
The clue to the secret treasure of the Xiji lies in the person in the painting, but the person in the painting looks exactly the same as the Princess Bei Zhan. Regardless of whether Emperor Anqing was unwilling or not, Ye Jing knew about this matter, and someone would definitely take An Changqing as a raft.
As long as what was written in the letter is 50% true, Xiao Zhige will not sit back and watch the Queen Mother's envoy arrive in Yejing alive when he receives his news.
It can not only help him solve the serious troubles of his confidants, but also sell the favor of the Northern War King, why not do it
And Xue Wuyi was right, Xiao Zhige really didn't dare to bet on An Changqing's safety.
- The news was sent by the maid next to Xue Wuyi herself. In addition, there is a picture.
The maid said that the person in the painting looked exactly the same as An Changqing, but Xiao Zhige only glanced at it and knew that the painting was definitely not An Changqing. The eyes of the person in the painting are longer and narrower, and the lips are thinner, making him appear a little indifferent. Even the small red mole under his left eye could not neutralize the coldness in his eyes.
Unlike An Changqing. Just looking at his face, this should be an extremely lonely person.
Unlike his, it's soft and warm.
Xiao Zhige looked at the portrait and did not speak for a long time, Ji Xue said without being humble or saying: "Master Xiang asked me to give Wang Ye a message: As long as Master Xiang is still alive, Xi Ji will never be the enemy of Daye."
Xiao Zhige put his hands behind his back, lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, and said to her: "Go back and tell him, just say the previous transaction, this king agreed."
Then he pointed to the portrait again: "This portrait is imitation, I want to stay."
The portrait was indeed imitated by Xue Wuyi, and the original work had been collected by him for a long time. Ji Xue bowed slightly to him, left a portrait, and left as quietly as when Tathagata came.
On the other hand, Xiao Zhige remained silent for a long time in front of the portrait. He didn't think that Xue Wuyi would use such a clumsy deception to deceive him, so this portrait and the secret treasure of Xiji are probably true.
With such a similar face, even the location of the mole under the eyes is exactly the same. Taking the coincidence as an example, it is really self-deceiving.
Xiao Zhige pondered for a long time and felt that the problem was mostly related to An Changqing's mother family. The An family was born and raised in Yejing, and was a newcomer. It was impossible for him to have anything to do with Xue Chang or Xiji. Most of it is related to the mother family.
An Changqing's mother... was originally from Qinglou. Parents unknown.
With a plan in mind, Xiao Zhige carefully put away the portrait, and wrote a letter to send it out quickly. After all the arrangements were made, Chang Zaichang was invited to discuss the jade mine.
When Chang Zaichang heard him say that Xiji agreed to let the Jade Mine, his expression was dull, and he narrowed his eyes for a while: "Why do I think there is something I don't know about?"
Xiao Zhige glanced at him lightly: "You don't know a lot of things. You just ask people to mine. As I said earlier, I will give you three."
Chang Zaichang thought about it for a while, and he knew that Xiao Zhige would not harm him after spending many years together. Seeing that he didn't say anything, he didn't ask the bottom line. It's never too much of a fanfare.
Xiao Zhige had a solution for this, and said to him: "After the jadeite is mined, don't rush to open it first, and ask the caravan to transport the rough stone directly to the south, where there are rich people, I think there will be many wealthy businessmen who are willing to spend money. "
Although Daye is now windy and rainy, it was prosperous before, especially in the southern area because Taizu once opened up trade, and they communicated with Yuze for a few years. The wealthy businessman is very rich. Although later emperors ordered that trade was not allowed, the family was still there. Don't worry about having no money to spend, just worry about having nowhere to spend it. This emerald was shipped and auctioned together with the stone, so no one wanted it.
Chang Zaichang was a little dumbfounded: "Auction the rough? Does anyone buy it?"
Xiao Zhige glanced at him: "Send someone who knows what to do, and build momentum first. There are a lot of wealthy businessmen in the south who are good at gambling."
Of course, these wealthy businessmen with some background will not go to the casino to find some unworthy fun, they play more tricks. For example, horse racing, or bird fighting, Zhuangzhuang is a high-stakes game.
If a single piece of jadeite is of course valuable, but if two jadeite mines want to keep coming in, the southern states and counties may not be able to afford it. On the contrary, the auction of rough stones like this can even arouse the curiosity of these wealthy businessmen.
A piece of rough stone, the jade that comes out is good or bad. With small and broad, arouse their gambling psychology, then they will not worry about selling.
Chang Zaichang was thoughtful, and soon sent someone to make arrangements. Xiao Zhige took the portrait and went to find An Changqing.
An Changqing had already eaten breakfast and was reading in the study at this time. Yu Xiao was doing her due diligence, and waited at the door of the study like a little tail. Seeing Xiao Zhige coming, he quickly got up and saluted.
Xiao Zhige nodded slightly and strode inside.
An Changqing had already heard the movement inside, and just put down the book and came over. Xiao Zhige paused when he saw him, and subconsciously compared him with the person in the painting. The more he looked, the more he felt that the two were very different.
He didn't plan to hide this from An Changqing, so he simply locked the study door and told him the whole story.
The portrait was spread out on the desk, An Changqing looked at it in astonishment, looking at it and wishing to stare out a hole in the portrait.
After a long time, he shook his head and affirmed: "I haven't seen it before. I have never heard about it from my mother."
Not just in this life, even in the previous life, he never knew what he would have to do with the Xiji Secret Treasure. He had heard some old things from his mother, but he didn't mention anything like a scorpion. He only knew that his mother was thrown on the side of the road soon after she was born, and there was only a Pisces jade pendant in her baby. Her mother was picked up and brought up. Later, when she met the disaster year, because she was good-looking, she was sold by her adoptive parents into a green house for life-saving money.
This fact is confusing, Xiao Zhige knows more than he, but he still has no clue. He could only set the portrait on fire with a fire stick, and said, "This portrait involves too much. Today's affairs are rotten in your heart, and don't tell anyone."
An Changqing frowned, still a little worried about this unpredictable disaster. In the last life, he had never been out of Yejing, and he didn't know anything about Xifeng. Not to mention that Xi Ding still has such a portrait. Now that he is reborn, he has changed many things, but brought out more things that have not happened in the last life.
Don't know if this is good or bad.
Seeing his frowning, Xiao Zhige thought he was worried about it, and comforted him: "I have already sent someone to intercept the envoy Xiji, and I won't let the royal father and the others know about it."
An Changqing shook his head, put his forehead on his shoulder, sighed deeply, and said distressedly, "I just feel that this time is really one thing after another, and there is no time to stop."
This sense of loss of control is inevitably irritating, and a little resentful that I was really confused in my last life and didn't even know anything.
Xiao Zhige smoothed his back. Seeing his frowning face, he changed a happy story and told him: "The jade mine is ready to be mined. I'll take you there to see it? By the way, pick a few good materials."
An Changqing was actually still a little listless, but thinking that there were not many opportunities like this, he nodded and went with him.
…
After the deal was negotiated, Xi Chi withdrew his troops. The tents on the border have been pulled up, but there are many soldiers closing the mountain - in the future, this area will easily not be able to enter.
The two went in and strolled around. There were already many craftsmen picking out the gravel. These gravels were all rolled down during landslides. Many of them were raw stones with emeralds hidden in them. . Picked from ordinary stones.
After lingering in the mine for two days, An Changqing picked a few rough stones according to the skills he had learned from the craftsman, and then had them open them with tools. Except for one piece of broken cotton, the other pieces were well-planted. Fine jadeite. An Changqing's mood that had been depressed for two days was finally relieved.
After picking jadeite, they had been lingering in Liangzhou for four or five days, and they were ready to set off back to Yanzhou.
All the matters related to the mining of the jadeite mine were handed over to Chang Zaichang. As for the caravan that transported the rough stones, it was necessary to look for someone with a strict mouth. Now that the jadeite is still being mined, I am not so anxious, so I plan to return to the wild goose first. The state will negotiate slowly.
It was another early morning, and a group of people ran on the road when they rode their horses.
An Changqing has now learned to ride a horse, so he picked a docile mare to ride. Xiao Yuxiao also followed them back to Yanzhou. Because he was too young to ride a horse, he asked Xiao Zhige to take him to ride with him.
Although Xiao Zhige didn't say anything on his face, his face was dark and his eyes fell on the figure in front from time to time.
Yu Xiao sat in front of him, too frightened to breathe. Looking at the princess riding a horse in front of her, she admired her even more. He now knew that it was the Princess Bei Zhan who saved him, and he deeply felt that the princess was not only good-hearted, but also not afraid of such a fierce prince. It was really amazing.
***
In May, the weather is getting warmer, and the people have changed into thin clothes. Because the war has been extinguished, the city is much more lively than before. When they returned to the city, many people saw them and greeted them with a smile. It was a prosperous and lively scene.
It was already evening when we returned to the city, and I handed over Yu Xiao to An Fu for placement. An Changqing and Xiao Zhige had dinner and washed up early to get ready to rest.
After rushing for a day and a night, An Changqing really had some backache and leg pain. After washing, he leaned on the pillow and beat his legs, his face wrinkled, looking a little childish.
When Xiao Zhige came out, he laughed when he saw him like this, and went over naturally, picked up his legs and put them on his body, controlled his strength and kneaded him, but said in his mouth: "I said that riding a horse is hard, and I asked you to join us. with me."
Obviously, An Changqing was riding a horse himself, but stuffed a child for him, and the King of the Northern War was not very happy.
An Changqing pursed his lips, kicked his shoulders with his feet, and muttered, "I wasn't too tired at first." Who knew that when he got off the horse, his whole body would be sore and sore. He must have been riding less and more in the future. Just practice.
Xiao Zhige's eyes flashed, he took advantage of the situation to hold his foot, and his calloused thumb slid across the sole of his foot, causing it to itch.
"Hey, don't scratch." An Changqing patted the itch, forced her feet back to hide, and glared at him in disgust.
Xiao Zhige's eyes darkened, he leaned forward and whispered in his ear, "Hey, today's round room, right?"
An Changqing's body froze, her eyes widened as she stared at him, Hongxia spreading from the base of her ears to her neck, as if stunned.
His appearance caused Xiao Zhige's eyes to become even more turbulent, his fingers ran across his back | spine, and asked in a low voice, "Are you okay?"
"Treading the Stars"
An Changqing finally regained his senses, and the whole person was almost smoking with shyness. It was the first time for him to do things like Yuan|fang in the past and present. But the two have been married for so long, and it is normal to have a round room, and when they went to Liangzhou, they said that they would have a round room when they came back.
The abnormal thing is, why did this person ask him so seriously? !
Glancing at him, An Changqing thought angrily, this matter... Didn't this matter start directly after putting down the tent? Ask what to do!
Xiao Zhige didn't know what he was thinking, and was still earnestly waiting for his answer. The two men were together and asked An Changqing to bear the burden below, and he was a little wronged, so he didn't want to force him. If he didn't want to, he could wait.
Being watched by him so fixedly, An Changqing said it was not good, and it was not good to say it was not. When she saw the expectation in his eyes, An Changqing swallowed nervously, telling herself in her heart that it was no big deal. Clenching his fingers, although he didn't answer, he gathered up his courage and raised his head to kiss him.
Silent is better than sound.
A wet and soft kiss is printed on the corner of the lips, which means it is self-evident. Xiao Zhige's eyes were like waves surging, but he didn't feel any leakage, but he was intimidated.
The corner of his mouth opened with a smile, Xiao Zhige lowered his eyes, carefully parted his hair for him, ran his fingers through the black hair, and gently returned a kiss on his forehead: "Don't be afraid..."
——Pull the light——
This night, Xiao Zhige was extremely gentle.
An Changqing practiced maintenance according to the formula given by Hu Zifei earlier, and did not suffer too much, but he rode a horse for a day and a night, and spent most of the night fooling around. .
Xiao Zhige didn't feel sleepy at all, he carefully scrubbed him clean, and held the person in his arms cherishingly without blinking.
From now on, the person in his arms will belong to him completely.
…
Xiao Zhige hadn't slept all night, but his spirits were exceptionally good. As soon as it was dawn, he went to the yard to fight a set of punches. After venting all his excess energy, he went to the kitchen in person and asked people to prepare the food for the day more carefully. , must be light and restrained.
After explaining that he happened to meet An Fu who was about to enter the room and shouted, he stopped the person and stopped him from disturbing An Changqing's good sleep: "You don't have to call the princess today."
An Fu just thought that the princess was tired from the journey, and didn't think about it elsewhere, so he left with the toiletry utensils, and planned to call again later. An Fu left, but Xiao Zhige didn't enter the house to make noise, just sat in the yard, staring in the direction of the main house, not knowing what he was thinking.
When Qi Wei, Xie Ling and others came, they saw their prince smiling... staring in a certain direction in a daze.
