lonely king

After resting for a few days, Baili Nian's body really got better.

It was also thanks to Sai Jian, the King of Qiang. Although Sai Jian had a rough temperament and was not careful, he sent many good things from the palace to Baili Nian.

Even the attic where Baili Nian lives, Wangshu Pavilion, is also the most exquisite part of the palace. Wangshu Pavilion is the highest attic palace in the palace. Sai Jian should have lived in it by himself. Only the most noble people in the palace can live in the highest palace. Yu, but Qiang Zhuo, the new king, doesn't like heights, and doesn't like vulgar etiquette, so he is given to Baili.

The ministers in the court also complained, but a fortune teller from the south, what qualifications does he have to live in Wangshu Pavilion in the palace.

The hunting ground is not far from the palace, and Sai Jian usually rides there, but he has prepared a carriage for Baili Nian, and the hunting ground is very windy, so he is very worried about Baili Nian.

"Qiangzhu Kingdom is much bigger than expected."

Baili Niu looked at the vast pastures. The pastures were fertile, with many cattle and sheep, and the small river was flowing with flowing water. In fact, the plain pastures on the side of Cangyu Mountain were very good.

Sai Jian's governance is also very good.

Baili Nian turned his head and glanced at Qiangzhu Palace, "This is the new palace of the king, right?"

"Immortals have really good eyes. This palace is the palace that I begged my father to build when I was still a prince. When this king ascended the throne, the palace was completed just in time. I just happened to live in it."

Sai Jian raised his head and followed Baili Nian's line of sight to look back, his brows were full of pride, the Qiang Zhu Kingdom was a nomadic people, and they always lived in tents, but Sai Jian heard about the palaces of the Central Plains, and felt that Qiang Zhu was also A country should also have its own royal palace.

"What do Immortal Situ think of this king's palace?" Sai Jian turned to look at Baili Nian.

Baili Nian slowly raised his eyes, Qiangzhu Palace is not as magnificent as Beiyan Palace, not as magnificent as Nanming Palace, and it does not follow the etiquette and rules to form a chaotic building.

However, the palace stands on the grassland, which is also a landscape.

"Very good." Baili Nian said flatly.

"Immortals don't fool me just because I don't understand and have never been to the Central Plains." Sai Jian laughed.

With a big wave of his hand, he was a nine-foot strong man, but he smiled like a child. His eyes dodged slightly, and his eyes glanced at Cangyu Mountain, and there was yearning in his eyes.

"The king wants to visit Beiyan and Nanming?" Baili Nian asked suddenly.

He saw his eyes and understood his eyes.

Sai Jian turned his head and looked at Baili Nian, "I want to see it!"

"The immortal, tell me about the scenery of Beiyan and Nanming. Didn't the immortal have visited many countries and met the monarchs of various countries? Are the kings of Beiyan and Nanming also like this king?"

Sai Jian suddenly jumped off the horse, touched the grass with his toes, and landed on the side of the carriage. He opened the curtain and looked at Baili Nian inside. His eyes were pure and he held Baili Nian's wrist.

"Let the immortal talk to this king."

Baili Nian was taken aback for a moment, and retracted his hand for a while, but Sai Jian didn't intend to let go, and dragged Baili Nian's hand in front of him again.

It's really the first time I've seen such a rude person.

Baili Nian lowered his eyes slightly, "What does Your Majesty want to hear?"

Seeing Baili Nian let go of his mouth, Sai Jian beamed with joy, he moved a little closer to Baili Nian, and took Baili Nian's hand with both hands.

"I will listen to whatever the immortal says, and I won't pick anything!"

Baili Nian raised his eyes to look at Sai Jian, just in time to meet his pure and sincere eyes, he pursed his lips and smiled slightly.

"The land and folk customs on the Cangyu Mountain side are indeed somewhat different from those of the Qiangzhu Kingdom, but they are not as different as the king imagined. The Beiyan Kingdom is located in the northeast of the Cangyu Mountain. The wind and snow in Yan Kingdom, Nanming Kingdom is in the southwest, and it is now the spring wind season, and there are many flowers blooming there, even beautiful."

"Are Nanming's flowers as beautiful as immortals?"

Sai Jian suddenly opened his mouth. He raised Baili Nian's hand and fiddled with it a few times, with a smile on his lips, "The hands of an immortal are really different from the hands of this king, a big man like Qiang Zhu. They are really slippery."

Said, he touched it again, Sai Jian had never touched such a delicate skin, like white jade, warm and smooth.

"The king was joking."

Baili Nian withdrew his hand and subconsciously leaned back a little. He had never been so close to a stranger. When he was in Beiyan and Nanming, the monarchs and friends respected the rules of etiquette, that is, only Saijian could So reckless.

"Of course I didn't joke, I mean..."

Sai Jian still wanted to grab Baili Nian's hand, but Baili Nian was one step ahead of him, hid his hand in his sleeve, and looked up at Sai Jian with a trace of alienation in his eyes.

"This king... makes the immortal uncomfortable?"

Sai Jian scratched his head, he was used to being reckless, he became a queen, he loved hunting and wrestling, and he had no scruples with the ministers and soldiers of the court. He wanted to treat Baili Nian respectfully, but due to too much inertia, he moved his hand again unconsciously.

"Ahead is the king's hunting ground?"

Baili Nian didn't answer Sai Jian's question, but looked forward instead, distracting the conversation.

"That's right, that's my king's hunting ground over there!"

Sai Jian smiled boldly and mentioned the hunting ground, which is his favorite place and a place where he can show off his glory.

He pinched his lips and blew a whistle. Sai Jian leaned on the carriage board with one hand and jumped up, while his red horse galloped to the side of the carriage when he heard the whistle. Pull, gallop towards the hunting ground.

Baili Nian also lifted the curtain of the car and looked at the vast hunting ground in front of him.

And Sai Jian, who was riding a red horse, was galloping on the hunting ground, and his figure was extraordinarily valiant.

Baili Nian was helped out of the carriage, and he stood on the edge of the hunting ground. The strong wind in the hunting ground made his white shirt sway gently. Bai Li Nian raised his head and glanced into the distance. But it was bigger than what he had guessed, the Cangyu Mountain was so vast.

"My lord, it's very windy here, you forgot your veil."

Mo Yan appeared behind Baili Nian, he held up a veiled hat, and helped Baili Nian wear it on top of his head, the white gauze on the edge of the veiled hat fluttered with the west wind, and did not cover Baili Nian well. His face seemed to be faintly visible, with an ethereal air of immortality.

"You're back." Baili Nian said flatly.

"Back to the Lord, I'm back."

Mo Yan stood behind Baili Nian, he had just returned from Xizhao Kingdom, the hunting ground of Qiangma Kingdom was to the south, and the south of Qiangma King's Palace was Xizhao Kingdom.

This hunting ground is next to Xizhao Kingdom.

"I heard that Young Master Xizhao is young and talented, but have you ever had the honor to meet Young Master Xizhao?" Baili Nian asked.

"Returning to the Lord, I have indeed seen the young master Xizhao. The young master supervises the country. He should be young and energetic, but he is very mature. Although the Xizhao country is not as grand as it was six years ago, under the management of the young master, the whole country With one heart and one mind, the country is prosperous and the people are safe, but the young master has the air of a king in his youth."

"The young master has the air of a king."

Baili Nian muttered these two sentences, as if recalling that year when he had just ascended the throne, he was young and energetic, and with the help of Uncle Wang, he was able to sit on the throne. Maybe he didn't have the air of a king.

"My lord?" Seeing Baili Nian's expression changed, Mo Yan thought he was unwell, so he took a step forward with worried eyes.

"I'm fine, you don't have to worry."

Baili Nian raised his eyes and looked at the vast hunting ground. The Qiangzhu Kingdom was located in the west of the Northern Yan and Southern Ming, and was separated by a Cangyu Mountain.

On the east side of Cangyu Mountain, part of it is adjacent to Beiyan Kingdom, part is adjacent to Nanming Kingdom, while the west is entirely within the territory of Qiangma Kingdom. The southernmost part of Cangyu Mountain is gentle and where the mountains cannot cover it, it is within the territory of Xizhao Kingdom.The border between Qiangzhu Kingdom and Xizhao Kingdom is just beside Cangyu Mountain.

To the east of Qiangmao State is Cangyu Mountain, to the south is bordered by Xizhao State, and to the west of Qiangmao State is a desert.

A sparsely populated country hidden in the west of the towering Cangyu Mountain, east of the dry desert, and fed by cattle and sheep on pastures, is easy to be overlooked.

Zhongyan, the lord of the Northern Yan Kingdom, and Gongsun Zhi, the lord of the Southern Ming Dynasty, have never mentioned the Qiangzhu Kingdom.

As everyone knows, the civilization here has developed to the point where it cannot be ignored.

"Mo Yan, you said that if there is any movement in Qiangzhu Kingdom, it will be difficult to spread to Beiyan Kingdom and Nanming Kingdom." Baili asked.

Following Baili Nian's line of sight, Mo Yan glanced to the east, and all he could see were continuous mountain ranges, and he really couldn't see anything.

"Across the Cangyu Mountain, the news is not well-informed. There is only one official road from Qiangzhao to the south. The official road is on the edge of Cangyu Mountain. The wind and sand are heavy, and the road is rough and difficult to walk. Naturally, there is something that cannot be passed on."

Baili Nian looked at the Cangyu Mountain thoughtfully, and then turned his eyes to look at the vast pastures, the cattle and sheep running everywhere, who would have thought that the official road beside the Cangyu Mountain was so windy and sandy, as if it had entered a desert. After passing the official road, there is a lush green pasture on the side of Cangyu Mountain.

"Then what you do here won't spread over there." Baili Nian murmured.

After hearing Baili Nian's words, Mo Yan turned his eyes back, "I can't see it from the other side of the mountain, but the Qiangzhu Kingdom borders the Xizhao Kingdom. If there is any movement in the Qiangzhu Kingdom, the Xizhao Kingdom will know first."

Baili Nian slowly raised his head and looked at Mo Yan with serene eyes.

"What if Xizhao Kingdom and Qiangzhu Kingdom join forces? Who will get the news from Cangyu Mountain?"

Mo Yan thought for a while, then raised his eyebrows, "No one knows."

Baili Nian nodded, "Yes, no one knows."

"Mo Yan," Baili called out to Mo Yan.

"I may want to live in Qiangzhu for a long time."
