Chapter 125 The mission arrives at the North

The bracelet was separated from the snow-white wrists. In Xu Qi'an's eyes, the elderly woman with a mediocre appearance was like a reflection in the water. After a change, she showed her original appearance and her appearance.

Her eyes were round and squinted, reflecting the fire, like a shallow lake soaked in dazzling gems, crystal clear and moving.

She raised her head shyly and timidly, her eyelashes trembled slightly, with a confusing beauty.

Her lips were plump and rosy, and the corners of her mouth were as delicate as carvings, like the most seductive cherry, seducing men to kiss her.

She is beautiful, but her temperament is even better, like a fairy lady in the picture.

……

Xu Qi'an has seen stunning beauty and knows that Princess Zhenbei is known as the number one beauty in Dafeng, so she is naturally outstanding.

However, when Xu Qi'an actually met the legendary No. 1 beauty in Dafeng, he still felt a strong sense of stunning.A poem naturally emerged in my heart:

The clouds think of clothes and flowers think of appearance, and the spring breeze blows on the threshold and the dew is thick.

If it weren't for the presence of the group of jade, they would meet under the moon on the Yao platform.

And, give it to me... She used a crying and begging voice.

Xu Qian looked at her silently, without continuing to tease, and handed over the bracelet.

The princess snatched it and put it on again. Another wave of light and shadow swayed, and she became an ordinary old aunt again.

In his early thirties, his facial features are mediocre and his temperament is ordinary.

The princess touched her face, breathed a sigh of relief, then hid her right hand, wearing a bracelet, tightly behind her, step by step, and looked at Xu Qi'an vigilantly.

She knew that her beauty was an irresistible temptation for men.

She has only met two men in this world who can resist temptation and ignore her. One is Emperor Jing of Yuan who is addicted to practicing Taoism and has immortality above everything else.

One is the King of Huai who is obsessed with martial arts and has other plans for her.

As for Xu Qi'an, in the princess's inherent impression of him, the label is: a young hero; a lustful person.

It is rumored that this person lingers in the Jiaofangsi and has deep entanglements with many courtesans. The young heroes and unruly romantics complement each other and are often talked about.

But what the princess feared the most was lustful people.

This is too beautiful, no, it's not a question of whether she is beautiful or not. She is really the rare kind of woman I think of first love... This joke from my previous life appeared in Xu Qi'an's mind.

He thought it was very appropriate. The princess was beautiful, but what really made Xu Qi'an feel like she was struck by lightning was the strange charm on her body, which could touch the softness of a man's heart.

Is this the number one beauty in Dafeng?Hoho, funny woman.

Xu Qi'an held the branch and tweaked the bonfire. He stopped looking at the vigilant and alert princess, staring at the fire and said:

This bracelet was what I won for you to throw a pot. It has the effect of blocking the breath and changing the appearance.

The princess was a little surprised. Thinking of the changes before and after taking off the bracelet, she thought he was inferred based on this, so she nodded.

Xu Qi'an continued: I heard that the Princess of Zhenbei is the number one beauty in Dafeng. I was dissatisfied at first, but now when I see your true face... I can only sigh: I deserve it.

The princess frowned slightly, wasn't convinced?

If other women say this, the princess thinks she is jealous, which is reasonable.But this sentence comes from a man's mouth, which seems strange.

Xu Qi'an nodded: Because I think, my pond... the women I know are all outstanding beauties, with different appearances, just like flowers competing for beauty.The so-called princess is just an equally beautiful flower.

But he had to admit that in the flash-like appearance just now, the princess showed her extremely powerful feminine charm.

Even though he was a long-standing gunfire, although he was not fascinated, he had a moment of impulse, an instinctive impulse of his male.

Hearing this, the princess sneered.

How could this lustful woman be compared with her? The courtesan in the sect is beautiful, but it would be a bit insulting to compare those women with her.

In the capital, the princess felt that Emperor Jing of Yuan was barely able to be her foil. When the national teacher Luo Yuheng was the most beautiful, he could compete with her, but most of the time he was not as good as her.

As for other women, she had either never seen them or had a beautiful appearance but a low identity.

The capital is a mountain, and the princess is Dugu Qiubai on the top of the mountain. She glanced at it and saw Huai Qing and Lin'an's mind at most.Occasionally, I took a look at Luo Yuheng’s half face.

Of course, there is another person who, if he was in his prime, the princess felt that he might be able to compete with him.

She is the queen of Dafeng.

Among the women Xu Qi'an hooked up with, naturally, would not include Huai Qing Lin'an and the national teacher.Therefore, the princess scoffed at what he said and raised her chin proudly.

I am almost one-year away from Beijing, so it’s very hard to pretend to be a maid.I endure it and you endure it very hard.Xu Qi'an said with a smile.

What's the meaning?The princess was stunned.

We were on the deck that night, and I wanted to pick your bracelet, but it was not like a thorn in the outside world. After all, I was the organizer and I had to consider the overall situation.

The princess' expression was dull, she looked at him in surprise and said: You, did you guess that I was the princess at that time?

It's a lie. She obviously pretends so well. She often cheers for her acting skills at night, thinking that she has mastered the role of maid, and no one recognizes it.

To be precise, when you were in the palace, I began to doubt it.To truly confirm your identity, we met in the official boat.At that time, I realized that you are the princess.The one on the ship is just a puppet.Xu Qi'an said with a smile.

After abandoning the boat and walking on land, Xu Qi'an felt no trouble in his heart when he saw the fake princess, and even more certain that she was a fake.

The reason is very simple. He has written a diary before, which records a characteristic of the princess.

Me, I was exposed so early... The princess opened her mouth and couldn't speak. Thinking of her performance over the past few days, a sense of shame that she wanted to dig three feet into the ground and bury herself.

I tell you this to tell you that although I am lustful... I would like to ask who is not lustful, but I never force women.We still have a long way to travel north, and you need to cooperate well.Xu Qian comforted her.

Dafeng Xu Yinluo never forces women unless they think about it.

Still unable to escape the fate of going north... The princess pursed her lips, felt a little disappointed, was silent for a while, and asked: When will we join the mission?

The young man Yinluo raised his head, the flames reflected his face, the corners of his mouth curled up, and a meaningful smile appeared: Who said we were going to meet with the mission?

……

That night, the banyan trees rustled and nothing happened.

In the early morning, the first ray of morning light shone on her face, and the clear and pleasant bird songs were beside her ears. She woke up from a shallow sleep and saw that the bonfire had gone out, with a large iron pot on it, and the porridge was fragrant.

The princess' stomach gushes twice, and she couldn't hide her surprise and came to the campfire, uncovering the iron pot, which contained three or five people.

In addition, there are clean dishes and chopsticks next to it.

Where did he come from the pot to cook porridge? No, where did he come from the rice?Where did the clean bowls and chopsticks come from... The princess served herself a bowl of porridge and drank it happily.

The porridge was thick and sweet, and the temperature was just right, and the princess savored it and bent her eyebrows and eyes.

Yesterday, after eating two rabbit legs, my stomach felt a little uncomfortable. I got up in the middle of the night to drink water, and found that the guy had finished drinking the water.Now it is dry mouth and tongue and empty belly.

This bowl of sweet porridge is better than the delicacies of mountains and seas.

At this time, footsteps came from a distance, and Xu Qi'an, who was stepping on the meadow, returned. He changed into plainclothes and mink hat, as if he had just finished taking a shower.

There is a small river there, no one nearby, suitable for bathing.Xu Qi'an sat down beside her, threw the soap beans and the boar bristle toothbrush over, and said:

Do you want to take a shower?

The princess held the bowl in her two small hands, looked at Xu Qi'an for a moment, and shook her head slightly.

Not dirty?Xu Qi'an frowned. After all, he was a princess with a daughter, but she was so unhygienic.

You're dirty.The princess retorted without knowing the good people's hearts.

She doesn't know how to take a shower. Wouldn't that give this lustful person an opportunity to take advantage of it?In case he was peeping around or took the opportunity to ask to wash together...

It's Ah, the goddess doesn't go to the toilet, it's because I'm low in consciousness... Xu Qi'an took back the pig's bristle toothbrush and soap beans.

The princess hurriedly said: It is necessary to rinse your mouth.

She had a small appetite and felt a little overwhelmed after eating a bowl of thick porridge. She looked at the boar bristle toothbrush while walking towards the river.

The main reason is that she suspects that the toothbrush was used by Xu Qi'an, but she has no evidence.

When she came back after brushing her teeth, the pot and bowl were gone. Xu Qi'an sat cross-legged beside the ashes, staring at the map intently.

Where will we go next?she asked.

Sanhuang County.

Xu Qi'an did not deliberately keep him in a silence and explained: This is a county adjacent to Chuzhou and Jiangzhou. There is a secret soldier who is trained by others. I want to go to him first, inquire about information, and then gradually go deep into Chuzhou.

The case of Bloody Massacre Three Thousand Miles is confusing and seems to have other hidden information. Against this background, Xu Qi'an believes that secret investigation of the case is the right choice.

If you are too high-profile, you will put yourself and your companions in danger.

The mission led by Yang Yan is an open cover.

The princess nodded slightly and asked again: Where did those things go.

You have to take care of it.Xu Qi'an mercilessly sent her.

The two continued to go on the road, avoiding the official road, walking on the mountain paths, ridges, or directly crossing mountains and ridges.

A whole day, a stingy woman never said a word to him.

There are also benefits to walking on the mountain road. The scenery along the way is quite good, with green mountains and green waters and white clouds.

Occasionally, you can see the green pine standing proudly on the cliff, as tall as a cover.You can also see wild flowers blooming on the roadside, simple and tough.

Xu Qi'an is a person who is so beautiful and caressing about his beauty. He doesn't walk fast and occasionally stops, pick a beautiful place, and rest leisurely for half an hour.

Telling her about her experience in raising fish often leads to a disdainful sneer from the princess.

……

After half a day, the delegation entered the northern border and arrived at a city called Wanzhou.

Wanzhou is a small prefecture, smaller than the county. Wanzhou has fertile land and is suitable for farming. It is one of the granaries of Chuzhou.

The architectural style of this place is not much different from that of the capital in the Central Plains, but the scale is incomparable. Since there is no pier nearby, the prosperity is limited.

After Yang Yan showed the court documents, the highest general at the city gate led them to the post station.

The delegation had just rested at the inn, and Yang Yan took a hot bath and was about to sit down to have tea when the governor of Wanzhou came.

The magistrate, the surname Niu, had no physique with the word Niu. He was tall and thin, had a goat whisker, wore a green robe with an aegle belt, and two yamen officials behind him.

I don’t know how many great masters are coming, and there are some who are missing to welcome him, and there are some who are missing to welcome him...

Niu Zhizhou was extremely humble. After greeting Dali Temple Chief, two censors and Yang Yan, he asked: I dare to ask, what are the matter with the adults?

Yang Yan is not good at officialdom and has no answers.

The Dali Temple Chief took out the document that had been prepared long ago, handed it over with a smile, and began to call the magistrate brothers and brothers with him in a few words.

After Niu Zhizhou and Dali Temple Chief finished greetings, he opened the Chinese letter and read it carefully.

After reading the document, Niu Zhizhou's expression was extremely strange and even thought it was absurd. He glanced at everyone and tentatively said: I dare to ask, which one is Xu Yinluo?

The Dali Temple Chief sighed and said sadly: The delegation was ambushed by an enemy on the way, and Xu Yinluo was seriously injured in order to protect everyone.We have sent someone to the capital.

Niu Zhizhou was shocked: Is this really the case?Which thief dares to ambush the imperial envoys? It is lawless.

The censor named Liu waved his hand and said: It's better not to mention this matter. Lord Niu, we are here to investigate the case and we happen to ask about it.

Niu Zhizhou hurriedly bowed: May I ask, Lord Censor.

Censor Liu said in a deep voice: What is the situation of the battle in Chuzhou?

Upon hearing this, Niu Zhizhou sighed and said: It was snowing heavily in the north last year, and countless livestock were frozen to death.After the beginning of spring this year, they often invade the border, burning, killing and looting along the way.

Fortunately, there are many soldiers under the command of King Zhenbei, and no city has been lost.The barbarians did not dare to go deep into Chuzhou, and could only pity the people near the border.

Not all the people live in the city, and those who are plundered by barbarians are the people in villages and towns.

The delegation looked at each other, and the head of the Ministry of Justice frowned and said: Blood massacre for three thousand miles, where did it happen?

Niu Zhizhou smiled bitterly and spread his hands, saying: This is simply a fantasy. You all should know that the total number of Chuzhou is only eight thousand miles.If there is a blood slaughter of three thousand miles, can the Xiaguan still stand here and talk to the adults?

Censor Liu sneered: Everyone is a scholar, so don’t play these clever things in Magistrate Niu.

Blood slaughtering three thousand miles is an allusion. It originated from the Warring States Period in ancient times. There was a bloodthirsty general who led his army to slaughtering three thousand miles when he destroyed the enemy country.

Later generations quoted as an allusion to describe large-scale killings and cruelty.

Although the barbarians harassed the people on the border and burned, killing and looting, the King of Zhenbei returned to the Tangbao in the north, saying that the barbarians were plaguing the border, but they were all defeated by him and the good news continued.

If the barbarians really commit atrocities of slaughtering three thousand miles of blood, it would be that the King of Zhenbei lied about military information and seriously dereliction of duty.
