After the general's legitimate daughter was reborn, the ascetic prime minister pinched her wais

As the afterglow of the sunset gradually faded away, Gao Wenyan rode horseback through the streets of Chang'an, watching the lanterns light up one by one, just like her mood at the moment.

After walking all the way through the West Market and around the East Market, she gradually stopped.

After the heavy rain, there was a bit of coolness in the wind. Chu Xu was handling matters in the study when he suddenly heard someone knocking on the window.

His eyelids couldn't help but twitch, and he stood up in a hurry, not even noticing that his coat slipped off.

"Girl?"

When the moonlight first came up, Gao Wenyan, dressed in white, stood outside the window and looked at him with a smile.

Chu Xu was stunned and looked at her intently for a while, then suddenly covered his face and chuckled.

There was moonlight flowing in his eyes, and Gao Wenyan thought it was very beautiful, so she leaned against the window sill and couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Chu Xu said half-jokingly: "Where is the secret guard of the prime minister's house where the girl appears like this?"

She rolled over as usual and said proudly: "What's so difficult about this?"

In fact, Gao Wenyan was not familiar with the structure of the Prime Minister's Mansion, so he was caught after only a few steps after climbing over the wall.

Fortunately, Zhixing was on duty tonight. Seeing that Gao Wenyan was here to see Chu Xu, he readily let him go.

So it's really not difficult.

"Yes, the girl is certainly good at what she does. What is the reason for this night visit?"

Gao Wenyan listened to his words and went to the market for a long time. As a result, he heard many stories and comments about her, and a storm surged in his heart that could not calm down for a long time.

She was very happy and couldn't wait to share this joy with the people around her, so she rode all the way. When she realized what she was doing, she was already outside the prime minister's house.

"The Prime Minister is right, I get far more than that official position!"

She still couldn't hold back her excitement and continued: "They all praised me for not being inferior to men at all."

"Well, they're right."

Chu Xu affirmed her without hesitation.

After finishing speaking, Gao Wenyan realized later that it was a bit ridiculous for him to go to the prime minister's house at night just for these few words.

Seeing that there was still a bowl of medicinal soup on the table, she asked, "The Prime Minister is about to take medicine?"

"Ah."

"But the injury recurred?"

"It's just an old illness, so don't mention it."

Gao Wenyan rummaged through his body and took out a ginseng stick.

She is now a celebrity in the capital, especially a role model for women in the capital, so after this experience, many shops are vying to send things to Gao Wenyan.

Gao Wenyan refused one by one, but the lady who gave the ginseng said: "Ginseng is the best for nourishing qi and nourishing the body." So she accepted it by mistake, and now it comes in handy.

"I heard that ginseng can nourish the body and replenish qi. I'm here to give this to the Prime Minister."

Naturally, the Prime Minister's Mansion would not lack these, but Chu Xu still accepted them with great care.

"In that case, I will also give you a gift. Girl, come with me."

"Prime Minister... medicine."

Gao Wenyan reminded him kindly, but Chu Xu immediately frowned.

He looked at the medicine bowl, then at Gao Wenyan, and the candied fruit spread in her hand, and finally drank the medicine reluctantly.

bitter.

It is painful from the throat to the heart and spleen.

But as the candied fruit was stuffed into the mouth, the bitterness began to be mixed with a hint of sweetness.

"Prime Minister, let's go."

After walking around the house, the two stopped in front of an attic. Chu Xu personally held up the lamp and led her step by step.

At the top is another study room, surrounded by windows on all sides and with two doors facing each other.

Pushing open the small door, there is a spacious platform, with a panoramic view of the entire Dongshi.

"Girl, wait a moment."

Chu Xu lit the lamp outside the platform alone, turned around and walked into the dim room.

When he walked out of the darkness again, he had a sword in his hand.

"Let's see how it goes."

Gao Wenyan blankly pulled out the sword and finally saw its true appearance.

The sword is more than two feet long, and its entire body is as white as frost, lightly engraved with delicate patterns, and glowing with a cool brilliance under the moonlight.

"This sword is called 'Chengshuang'."

Of course Gao Wenyan knew that the Chengshuang Sword was made by a famous general in the Spring and Autumn Period and was famous for its blade as sharp as frost and snow.

However, she has been learning marksmanship for many years, and she only uses the sword for convenience and for self-defense. However, this did not hinder her excitement at all. After all, appreciating famous weapons is a common hobby among martial arts students.

No one would have thought that this sword, which had been missing for a long time, was actually in Chu Xu's place.

However, appreciation is appreciation, and this gift is too heavy for her to accept.

"The Prime Minister loves you so much, how can Wen Yan accept this great gift?"

Chu Xu smiled: "A famous sword and a famous general are a good match. If the girl can't do it, who else can?"

Seeing that she was still about to refuse, Chu Xu added: "Use this sword to take Xie Shen's head for me in the future."

Gifts that are mixed with the meaning of "transaction" are often more acceptable than simple gifts.

So Gao Wenyan nodded and accepted it.

She waved her hand and tried it, and it turned out to be a good sword.

Gao Wenyan is good at using swords. Although she no longer studies swordsmanship after the age of fifteen, every move is still engraved in her bones.

So the moon is the moon in the sky, and people are the people in front of you.

Her figure was light, and the sword in her hand danced faster and faster. The sword light flashed, as if a frightening dragon was flying out.

Behind her was the brilliantly lit city of Chang'an, and in front of her was the clear light she had cut down.

Chu Xu looked at her quietly and suddenly felt that this was good.

Gao Wenyan put away his sword, brushed the sweat from his forehead, and said happily: "Chengshuang is indeed extraordinary!"

His dark eyes were still looking at her, as if looking at her, but also seemed to be looking at something else through her.

It wasn't until Gao Wenyan walked up to him that Chu Xu withdrew his gaze and said calmly: "Let's go."

He walked very slowly, so Gao Wenyan also stopped walking and walked with him.

"Why doesn't the girl learn swordsmanship?"

Gao Wenyan tilted his head and thought for a moment, then corrected: "It's not that I'm not used to it, it's just that I don't study it anymore."

Chu Xu lowered his eyes slightly and said, "That's good, there is a successor to the Gao family's marksmanship. General Gao should be very happy."

Thinking of her father, she couldn't help but smile: "I didn't learn marksmanship until I was fifteen. At that time, my father no longer cared much about whether there would be any successors."

After Gao Wenxi was born, General Gao also thought that his marksmanship would be succeeded by someone else. However, as Gao Wenxi grew up, he became obsessed with swordsmanship. General Gao tried to change his interest, but failed.

Later, Gao Wenting was born, and General Gao once again recommended his Gao family's marksmanship. However, Gao Wenting waved his hand, picked up his sword, and went to swim in the lake with the princes of the capital.

Later, Gao Wenyan became General Gao's last hope. He let her play with the barrel of a gun since she was a child, trying to cultivate interest.

However, Gao Wenyan still learned the swordsmanship like his two brothers.

General Gao thought it was Gao Wenxi who was the leader, causing his younger brothers and sisters to imitate him, so he beat him up. From then on, he no longer cared about whether the marksmanship was lost.

Maybe he figured it out. After all, Gao Wenxi was very accomplished in swordsmanship, so it wouldn't be a big deal to switch to the Gao family's swordsmanship.

However, when Gao Wenyan was fifteen years old, he showed amazing talent in marksmanship, which made the pile of ashes in General Gao's heart burn again.

Unlike Gao Wenting, who was obsessed with swordsmanship, Gao Wenyan was only obsessed with martial arts itself. It didn't make much difference to her whether she was practicing swordsmanship or practicing spears. Her love of using swords when she was a child was indeed influenced by her two brothers.

"The children of the Gao family are really amazing." Chu Xu praised again.
