The prediction Rong Shuihe had told Sheng Weiqiao immediately came true when they got out of Chang'an.
Apparently, the Meng Family had made up its minds to wear out its enemies through constant attacks as Rong Shuihe and his people suffered attacks almost every night in the following days. Fortunately, Rong Shuihe's subordinates used to be pirates who were experts in murder and arson and were ready for withstanding attacks. Therefore, they did not give the Meng Family any chance to commit arson.
However, the men of sacrifice advanced wave upon wave, which truly affected their journey and their people's mental states.
Perhaps the Meng Family found that this strategy was effective. Therefore, after Rong Shuihe's procession had gotten out of the royal city, they even tried to cause trouble for Rong Shuihe and his people in the daytime.
Seeing that, Rong Shuihe immediately changed their strategy of only guarding strictly. He tra
Compared with villages in Nanfeng County and the royal city, this village did not have a large population. However, it covered a large area. The cottages were scattered on the sunny slope of the mountain. There was only one path for people to go up or down.On one side of the path was a crag which was even hard for apes to climb. It was covered in vines such as climbing figs, and there were many colorful snakes and insects on it.Sheng Weiqiao happened to meet the eye of a colorful poisonous snake when passing the crag with the support of her maid. She trembled with fright and almost missed her step.Xu Lianshan, who was not far from her, saw the snake and quickly threw a dagger at it to kill it. Then, a bodyguard went to take the snake happily. He returned the dagger to Xu Lianshan and gave the snake to the chef to make an extra meal for dinner.On the other side of the path was the bottomless cliff. It was shrouded in clou
Sheng Weiqiao and Madam Feng's sister lived in the village for five days. In order to welcome them, people of the village stocked up a lot of firewood, rice, oil, salt, bacon and pickles in advance, and temporarily bought a batch of live livestock.This place had lush vegetation, which made a perfect living environment for wild animals and potherbs. Xu Lianshan sent a few people out to hunt every day, which not only investigated nearby but also added some fresh dishes to Sheng Weiqiao, so the life of Sheng Weiqiao and others here was not bad.However, Sheng Weiqiao couldn't contact Rong Shuihe and the others. So it was inevitable that Sheng Weiqiao was secretly worried, feeling that one day seemed a year.But finally, in the early morning of the sixth day, a messenger came first, informing that the matter had been resolved and Rong Shuihe would personally come to pick them up within two days at most.Sheng Weiqiao and Madam
Sheng Weiqiao was stunned and said, "So your name... already reveals your origin?"If Huan Guanlan originally named Rong Shuihe "Shuihe" because he wanted to use "Shuihe Xian" to allude to the Emperor rather than the peony, so this name was obviously an allusion to point out the blood relationship between Rong Shuihe and the Emperor.What was more, if thinking about it a little more deeply, Emperor Xuanjing once had great ambitions for the country but he soon became obsessed with beauties and forgot his ambitions. Wasn't it the literal meaning of "Shuihe Xian", being lazy and obsessed with beauties?"But Mr. Huan doesn't seem to have any ill intentions towards you?" Sheng Weiqiao pondered for a while and said, "He even has a few high hopes for you?"She said this implicitly. But in fact, she thought that Huan Guanlan probably hoped that Rong Shuihe would take the throne in the future.Otherwise, why would Mr. Hu
"You are the master of the Jishan Bandit!" Seeing this, Madam Feng's sister and Sheng Weiqiao glanced at the guard who stopped the women. The guard nodded slightly, so they knew that what the women said was true. They all stood up and said politely, "I'm really sorry. We lost a lot of carriages and horses before. There's even no room for luggage. Mizhen is out looking for porters, so he's not here now. Please sit down and wait a minute. We'll send men to find him."Those female bandits didn't pester. They bowed with both hands clasped to return salutes. They didn't approach and directly walked to other tables. They shouted and asked the waiter to serve them liquor and dishes as soon as possible.Cold dishes and liquor could be prepared in advance. These were served faster than hot dishes and hot soups. Those female bandits didn't take a bite of the dishes when the liquor was served. They opened mud seals of the liquor pots directly, lined up large bo
Hearing Master Wu's words, Rong Shuihe wasn't surprised at all. He said calmly, "Yes, it has been two years since he died. But his death had nothing to with me. The pirates fought because of personal grudges. He was involved, unfortunately. And I was not there at that time. I was too far away to save him.""I knew it!" Master Wu sighed deeply. She lowered her eyes to hide her tears and sadness. But as she looked up, her expression became calm and cold as usual, saying without any expression, "Otherwise, you are not able to get that letter."Rong Shuihe smiled without a word.After a moment of silence, Master Wu didn't bother about that anymore but got down to business, "What are you going to do after the Jishan Bandit pledged their loyalty to the Emperor?"Rong Shuihe replied, "I am going to reorganize the Xijiang army. Everyone knows that my real purpose is to control military power. The main force of the Jishan Bandit is a
Escorted by Xu Lianshan, Sheng Weiqiao and Juli went to the place where Master Wu and her followers rested. They ran into Madam Feng's sister on their way when she was feeding sparrows in the winding corridor. Knowing where Sheng Weiqiao was going, Madam Feng's sister said, "I'll go with you!"Sheng Weiqiao waited for her aunt to go back and change a proper dress. Then, they reached Master Wu's place hand in hand. When they entered the room, they happened to see Master Wu wiping her sword around her waist carefully with a silk handkerchief.The handle and scabbard of the sword looked threadbare. It was apparent that the sword was old and had a complex history.However, its blade was still clear and shiny. One could be frightened by its sharp edge even a few steps away.Sheng Weiqiao said inwardly, "This sword and Xu Baomo's sharp soft sword bestowed by the emperor, which one is better? Even if Master Wu's sword is not as goo
A person's fame was like a shadow following him.Though Huan Guanlan had been missing for about a generation, he was still an insurmountable barrier for the imperial court of Country Mu.Even the three brothers of the Meng Family, who managed to make the obscure Meng Family become a well-known wealthy family throughout the whole country, subconsciously felt their scalps tingling at the mention of Huan Guanlan.Wuan Marquis first thought about the worst situation. He said, "Eldest Brother, is the little prince born by the cousin of Deposed Empress Wen truly dead?"After all, Huan Guanlan was still alive but reclusive, so there must be a reason for him not to appear.Then the most probable reason was that he was cultivating the future Crown Prince in secret.That was unacceptable to the Meng Family!Chengyang Marquis's face was also clouded. He said, "Shall we kill Mizhen at all costs? Ir
While Rong Shuihe was giving Sheng Weiqiao a lesson, Meng Jiaqian gradually awoke from his coma in a village not far from the inn.Seeing this, Meng Jiaqian's subordinates felt a sense of relief and were about to ask about his health. However, Meng Jiaqian first asked hoarsely, "How is everything going now?""General, we haven't met any other people after that night, so everything remains unchanged." one of his subordinates said. As Meng Jiaqian had just been in a stable condition, the subordinate was afraid that he would get worse again at the mention of their heavy losses. Therefore, he said with deliberation, "How do you feel now? Any discomfort?"Meng Jiaqian remained in silence for a while. Any discomfort?In fact, he felt uncomfortable all over!Thinking of the unexpected attack from the enemies, the incredibly crushing defeat they had suffered, his bleak prospect, and the predictable anger of his seniors,
Shu Zhaoyi lost her soul and returned to the Xuanjing Emperor placed outside the bedchamber, and was about to go in to see how the Xuanjing Emperor slept ... After she came back with the Xuanjing Emperor, because she was anxious to go to interrogate Meng Guiyu alone, she excused herself to drink wine to drown her sorrows, and left the Xuanjing Emperor after she got him drunk.This moment back can not help but go in to see, who knows just to the door to see the two chamberlains eyes and nose guarding.Seeing Zhaoyi come over, their faces all changed, and they bowed tremblingly, saying, "Long live the Empress!""There are people inside?" Shu Zhaoyi asked with a raised eyebrow when she saw that despite their respectful attitude, they never had the intention to give way.The two chamberlains looked at each other, with trepidation in their eyes, knowing that the Shu sisters were in great favor and neither were good-tempered.Especially at this moment, the ne
Shu Zhaoyi's expression was harsh, but Meng Guiyu's face was calm, and he said in a deep voice, "Back to Lady Zhaoyi, I really didn't know about Your Highness's suffering at all!"He glanced at Shu Guifei's remains on the door panel not far away, "As for why His Majesty and Lady Zhaoyi found that Lady Guifei was missing, they issued an imperial edict for the forbidden army to search everywhere, and in the end, it was me who sent Lady Guifei to His Majesty as well as to Lady Zhaoyi.... Ma'am, I reported up before that Lady Guifei wasn't personally found by me, but was reported up after his men found it. personally found, but rather after my men found it and reported it up, I went to see it!""After all, I have been favored by the two empresses and have joined the forbidden army as the Grand Commander of the forbidden army. When the forbidden army discovers a clue, it is natural to report it to me first, and then I will convey it to His Majesty and you, Your Highness!"
"Your Highness!" Meng Gui Yu's expression was somber, his eyes were also red, stepped forward and cupped his fists and said, "After I learned that Your Highness and her attendants had disappeared, I couldn't believe that Your Highness had been in an accident! However, the Queen Consort lived in the Qiongxue Palace and the left side of the inch by inch search down, the Committee did not see any silhouettes, can only be dispersed towards the distance. At this time to listen to the water division side of the report, said the spring wave lake floated up ... floated up a number of people, all for the palace attire, the leader of the even more expensive clothes extraordinary, I ... ministers eleven million hope that it is a mistake!""But the minister to the lake, personally saw this body pomegranate red dress shirt ... I remember, two days ago also see your concubine through ...""This must be which bitchy servant girl, stole this palace sister's robe!!!" Shu Zhao Yi covered
The sky was overcast as if it were night before the rain poured down.In the back room of the assassin's residence, the doors and windows were closed, and it was too dim to see the outlines of things.Yi Liu dressed in Xuan Shirt strong clothing, full head of green silk also with the same color of the handkerchief tightly wrapped up, foot soft sole light boots, quietly stepped over the scarlet ground tangled branches of lotus pattern unicorn play beads rug.The short sword in his hand was coated in black paint, dark and heavy that would not emit any reflections, best suited for the immediate environment.She narrowed her eyes slightly so as not to let the luster between the flow of her bright eyes be detected by her opponent.The thunder outside the house had been raging for a long time, and her confrontation with her opponent had lasted even longer.She's in no hurry.In addition to the fact that this was the Assassin's Palace, the home bas
Rong Sleeping Crane was busy smiling and greeted her, "Auntie! I disturbed you last night, are you resting well now?"Xuan Yu Feng first looked him up and down, saw his gray head and face, and his clothes were dirty, then said in a pleasant manner, "I am an idle person anyway, it is nothing to make a mess once in a while, but it is you ... how did you get this? How to make such a mess? I just saw with you a piece of over the guards, are good, thought you also safe and sound it!"Let's just say that he, "Auntie knows that this child of yours is both literate and skilled in martial arts. But the so-called not in his position does not seek his own politics, you now is not to the district Gongsun clan to sell their lives of the Wuyi camp leader, but the king of the big Mu County, is the husband of Qiao Er, lemonade father of the king! If it is because of the first to fight, there are any shortcomings, you call Qiao'er mother and son in the future how to do?""What's mo
"..." Rong Sleeping Crane froze and said, "Good girl, although Meng Boqin is gone, the Northern Border may not be peaceful ah! And you also know that I secretly came from the Western Border this time, so after settling your mother and son, I will talk to uncle for a few more days, and also have to hurry to return to the Western Border."Sheng Weiqiao said, "You have urgent matters, you go to the western border first! I'll go over slowly with lemonade, at most it's just a few more days of traveling."She frowned slightly, ''Before I left from the Western Frontier in such a hurry, the things I lost down were just that, Geun Li, Ju Li those people, and the twelve niang and whatnot ... I'm telling you, if it wasn't for the fact that you were in the way of Meng Boqin before, and you said that it was safest to take the sea route to leave, I would have wanted to go to the Western Frontier to witness it no matter what. I'd like to go to the western border to see them before I fe
"Think of the good in things!" The plan to use Zhao Shi as a front failed, Rong Yuhe could only go alone to face his wife's doubts, he was on his way to comfort himself, "I can't say that my daughter is worried and scared alone in the camp, and she is satisfied to see that I am well past it. Why is it that things are happening differently from what she told me before, and she's not in the mood to get to the bottom of it, so I'll be able to get by with a few perfunctory sentences?"With that thought he looked down at his neat as new robes, pondered for a moment, and decisively halted his mount!The left and right guards were instantly aghast, taking off the bow hanging on the saddle and nocking arrows from the arrow pot at their waist while asking in a low voice, "County King?""... "Rong Sleeping Crane looked at them as if they were enemies, the corner of his mouth twitched, and said, "It's nothing. Well, you guys stay here, lone go to the side forest for a bit!"
The green-clothed boy heard, a face of "difficult to say" expression, once again look at Zhao Shi, mouth vaguely said, "I do not know how to say ... anyway... several stewards feel very difficult to make a judgment. ...Several stewards feel that it's very tricky and can't make a judgment, so I can only ask the County King to personally decide!"Seeing this situation, Zhao Shi raised an eyebrow and said to Rong Sleeping Crane, "I'm about to go out to see how things are going underneath, you guys talk over here!"Just take the old maid and go.The room is left with Rong Sleeping Crane and the boy, that boy immediately swept away the calm in front of Zhao Shi's master and servant, said in a tone of excitement mixed with inexplicable excitement, "County King! To tell you the truth, you may not believe it: brother Ah Xi, he ... actually slept with the Empress!!!"Yung Sleeping Crane, who has taken a hundred and twenty-thousand percent care and is ready to receive
Zhao Shi sniffed, froze for a good while, before asking with doubts, "You ... you send all the horses of your Western Frontier elite cavalry over? Then what about the direct line that you single-handedly trained?"Not waiting for Rong Sleeping Crane to answer, he shook his head again, "Not right! You kid has always been treacherous, not taking advantage of others would be good, how could you do something so self-sacrificing?!"Mind electric turn, suddenly eyes bright, breathing are a little short of breath, eagerly asked, "I remember you promised Deng Chen Liyu to help him raise his son and grandson ...?""I'm not as old as his grandson, what do you mean by helping him raise his son and grandson?" Rong Sleeping Crane cried and laughed, "It's just a promise to shelter a few of his heirs."Zhao suitable toward him leaned his body, attentive to ask, "The previous dynasty has the emperor Na Ru Ru princess as a consort, when Ru Ru accompanied by 10,000 horses, tha
