I live in Beihai Jun Nanhai [Rebirth]

Shi Jiu said: "Leaving the palace."

Shui Jing continued to ask, "Where did you go?"

Shi Jiu thought for a while, but he seemed unsure, so he said ambiguously, "Beach?"

"Oh." Shui Jing nodded, raised her hand and waved her farewell.

Before he opened the door, Shijiu said, "Wait."

Shui Jing looked back at him, raising her eyebrows in doubt.

Shi Jiu said: "Why are you looking for him?"

Shui Jing smiled mysteriously: "Send him a treasure."

Shi Jiu was full of disbelief: "What treasure can you have?"

Shui Jing smiled triumphantly, turned around and walked to the desk, put the box in front of him, pouted and said: "Here, see for yourself."

Shi Jiu glanced at him suspiciously, put the half of pastry in his hand back on the plate, clapped his hands, hooked his fingertips lightly, and raised the lid.

As soon as the chick saw the light, it immediately jumped up and screamed, with the hand that released the wine hanging in the air, it frowned and looked at the chick for a while, then raised its eyes and said, "Black-bone chicken?"

Shui Jing looked at the chick, and said incredulously, "Are you old and dim-sighted? This body is like snow-white hair, where did you see the 'wu' from?"

Shi Jiu sneered, and retorted: "Are you ignorant? The 'black' of black-bone chickens is the color of finger bones, not the color of fur. Most black-bone chickens have white hair. You don't even know this?"

"Oh, really? It's been a great benefit."

Shui Jing was ridiculed, but he didn't feel ashamed at all, his skin was as thick as a city wall, and he said forcefully: "Let's count it, but even so, with this little brat's vigor and vigor, how can he be like a chicken?"

As soon as this remark came out, Shui Jing felt guilty for a moment, after all, when he saw the chick for the first time, he also thought it was a chick.

Shi Jiu didn't want to argue with him, so he lazily said: "So what kind of treasure is it?"

Shui Jing looked at him with a smile that was not a smile, and said word by word: "Hai, Dong, Qing."

Shi Jiu was really surprised, he looked down at the chick again, nodded and said: "That is indeed a treasure, found from Bai He?"

Shui Jing said: "Da Luan."

Shi Jiu was startled, then thought of something, raised his eyes to look at him and said: "Is it related to that call to action?"

Shui Jing was not surprised that he would think of it this way, and said truthfully: "It's an introduction, and the cause is a harem fight by accident."

Shi Jiu nodded, without asking any further questions, raised his hand to close the box, and handed it back to Shui Jing.

This is always the case with wine release, the analysis and speculation are very accurate, but they don't get into the details.

He already knew that "Leaving the crown prince with a raptor to kill the crown prince" written in Daluan's paper was just an excuse to raise troops. As for how this excuse was fermented, and why Shui Jing accidentally got this chick, he Not going to get to the bottom of it.

Shui Jing took the box, and suddenly Shi Jiu asked, "Did you hear about Lan Zhao's change along the way?"

"Lan Zhao?"

Shui Jing went in without knowing it, he rarely passed the city on the way from Daluan, he didn't even take a few official roads, and he didn't hear any rumors, so he asked strangely: "What happened to Lan Zhao?"

Shi Jiu didn't beat around the bush, and said bluntly: "The leader of the Ulan tribe attempted to collude with the enemy and treason the country. After the incident, he absconded in fear of crime, and his whereabouts are unknown now."

"The leader of the Ulan tribe?" Shui Jing recalled a little, "Ulan Tuo's son, Ulanda?"

Shi Jiu nodded: "I heard that in order to compete with Tu Keba'an, the leader of Tuzhao, he mobilized a large number of people and secretly colluded with Daluan to annex the Tuzhao Department in one fell swoop."

Shui Jing sat down by the desk, put down the box in his hand, recalled all the impressions about Ulanda in his mind, frowned and said: "Ulanda doesn't look like such a brainless person? Su, pick the civil strife first? And...since the collusion has been made, why did it fail? Could it be that even the combined forces of Daluan and Ulan can't shake Tuzhao?"

Shi Jiu shook his head slowly, and said: "According to what Tukebaan said, the secret letter sent by Ulanda to seek cooperation in Daluan was intercepted by sentry cavalry, so the agreement was not reached."

Shui Jing thought for a moment, then sneered and said, "That is to say, before he discussed with Daluan, he first gathered the troops? Then he failed to get Daluan, so he left the large number of troops he had prepared Run away alone?"

Shi Jiu also chuckled lightly, and said, "I knew you wouldn't believe it either."

Shui Jing said disdainfully: "Of course I don't believe it, even if he really intends to borrow troops from Da Luan, why didn't he just fight Tu Zhao after the secret letter was intercepted? Anyway, all the troops have been mobilized, and the strength of the Wulan tribe may not be able to fight Tu Zhao Zhao, why did he choose to leave directly? Doesn’t that mean that Tu Zhao won without a fight? Besides, what is meant by ‘absconding in fear of crime’? The leader of Lan Zhao has not yet been determined, and Ulanda and Tu Kebaan are not monarchs and ministers. He cooperated with Daluan in the name of the head of the Ulan tribe, who is qualified to convict him?"

Shi Jiu nodded and said: "I also think there are many doubts about this matter, and there may be other secrets behind it."

Shui Jing thought for a while and asked, "When did this happen?"

Shijiu said: "Daluan surrounded Sang, after Sang sent letters to other countries for help."

"At this time," Shui Jing narrowed his eyes and said thoughtfully, "it's a bit subtle."

Shi Jiu and him looked at each other, and smiled knowingly: "It's really subtle. At that time, Daluan was heavily surrounded by troops, and he had no time to care about other things. Even if Ulanda really had that kind of thought, he wouldn't be so stupid as to pick this moment."

Shui Jing took it seriously, nodded and said: "Besides, Ulanda has a heart that is rare in the world, and he attaches great importance to friendship. If I guessed correctly, the reason why he summoned people is very likely to be related to Sang Kingdom's request for help. .”

Shi Jiudao: "Right now, Tukebaan claims that he fled in fear of crime and his whereabouts are unknown. I don't know if it is true or false."

Shui Jing said: "Do you think Tukebaan will kill him?"

Shi Jiu shook his head: "I don't know."

Shui Jing pondered for a moment, and suddenly felt blessed, and said, "Why did you suddenly mention this to me? Could it be that you want me to visit Lanzhao for you?"

"For me?" Shi Jiu was amused, and asked back, "Aren't you curious?"

Shui Jing smiled and said: "I'm not curious at all."

Shi Jiu took down the gourd and took a sip of the wine, nodded indifferently and said, "Then just pretend I didn't say anything."

"Tsk," Shui Jing shook her head, stood up, turned around and waved her hands, "Let's go."

Walking to the door, he suddenly remembered something, turned around and repeated deliberately: "I'm leaving?"

Shi Jiu looked at him strangely, seemingly inexplicable, and nodded after a while: "No."

"..."

Shui Jing gave him a cold sideways glance, opened the door and strode away.

Due to a slight delay in the wine release hall, it was already dark at this time, and the chicks in the box screamed louder and louder, Shui Jing simply went to the Imperial Garden first, and found a few small insects in the bushes under the Wangming Pagoda to block it. Its mouth, which was waiting to be fed, left Yu Palace and went to the seaside.

Before getting close, Shui Jing saw that there was no one on the shore and the beach, but the ground was a mess, and the traces were very similar to a chaos that happened not long ago.

On the sandy beach trampled by countless messy footsteps, large and small potholes are dotted all over, a long table was overturned on the ground, and broken dishes and dishes were scattered around.

A three-legged incense burner was inserted crookedly in the sand, and the incense ash poured out from the mouth of the burner and scattered all over the ground, and several half-burned incense sticks were stacked horizontally and vertically.

There are a lot of trampled melons and fruits around, and the juice flowed sideways, slowly seeping into the sand, dyeing the sand red and purple, which is very frightening.

Beside the overturned long case, there were a few randomly cut hemp ropes piled up together. The hemp ropes were so thick that they looked like a few boa constrictors entrenched at a glance.

Shui Jing glanced at the sundries all over the ground, and it can be inferred that there was a sacrifice here not long ago, but I don't know who the sacrifice was, and what accident happened during the process, which caused the sacrifice to be interrupted and could not continue go down.

Shui Jing remembered that Shi Jiu said that the prince came to the seaside when he left the palace, did he come here to participate in this sacrifice?What happened during the sacrificial ceremony, and why did this place leave such a mess?

The waves beat against the coast one after another, and the seawater that surged onto the beach carried some sundries back into the sea. The sound of the wind was like whimpering, accompanied by the sound of the waves, which added a bit of gloom to the place.

Shui Jing listened, and suddenly caught some unclear voices in the wind.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."

It didn't sound like a whimper from the sea breeze, but rather like a woman's low cry.

Someone is crying?

Shui Jing looked around, but did not find any figure. He listened carefully for a while, and finally confirmed that this was not an illusion.

The sound came from the rocky beach connected to the beach in the distance. There were many boulders there, enough to cover up the body. If there were people there, they would not be able to see it from where the water mirror was standing.

Shui Jing walked towards the rocky beach, the closer he got, the clearer the voice became. After bypassing a boulder, Shui Jing finally found the weeping person.

It was a woman, wearing sackcloth and filial piety, kneeling on a pile of rocks facing the sea, her shoulders kept shrugging, she could see she was very sad, but she kept her crying very low, as if she didn't want to be heard .

This scene was really weird. If someone else looked at it, they might think that she was a female ghost with deep grievances.

Shui Jing hesitated for a moment, but decided to go forward and ask a few words.It wasn't all for appeasement, he also wanted to ask the woman if she knew what happened to the unfinished sacrifice.

Arriving behind the woman, it might frighten her, Shui Jing coughed heavily before saying: "This girl..."

The woman turned her head sideways, with a dazed expression and dull eyes. Only then did Shui Jing realize that she was holding a two or three-year-old child in her arms. It was a very cute little boy with chubby cheeks and a pair of black eyes. Bright eyes blinked at Shui Jing, seeming a little curious and a little timid.

Strangely, the child was soaked from head to toe, the two hairpins on his head were in a mess, the wet hair stuck to his forehead, and his complexion was a little weak and haggard, making him look particularly pitiful.

Shui Jing frowned slightly, it was cold at night, and the sea wind was very strong, it would be fine if this woman was here alone, this child was already so wet, how could he stand the ravages of this sea wind?

Just as Shui Jing was thinking, a gust of wind happened to blow in his face, the child flinched immediately, and then sneezed several times.

Shui Jing sighed softly, took off his coat and put it on the child.

The woman seemed to realize that the child had caught the cold at this moment, she hurriedly lowered her head and wrapped the child up in a hurry, and hugged the child tightly, then she turned her head and said in a hoarse voice: "Thank you."

"No need," Shui Jing said, "Dare to ask this...madam, do you know what happened on the beach to the west?"

Hearing this, the woman glanced in the direction of the beach, and then raised her eyes to look at the water mirror. Before she could speak, tears welled up in her eyes. She quickly lowered her head and wiped it with the back of her hand. The child in her arms stretched out With a small hand, he kept wiping away her tears.

Although Shui Jing wanted to ask for details, he didn't intend to make others hurt. Seeing that the woman seemed to be feeling sad because of his question, he immediately changed his words: "Madam, if you don't want to mention it, you don't have to force it. I'm taking the liberty. I beg your pardon, ma'am."

After finishing speaking, he took his leave and planned to leave, but just as he turned around, the woman stopped him: "Sir, please stay."

Not knowing if she wanted to repay Shui Jing's kindness to the child, the woman held back her tears and said in a hoarse voice, "That beach... had a sacrifice before."

Shui Jing was a little helpless, he also knew that there was a sacrifice there, what he wanted to know was the reason for the sacrifice and what happened during the sacrifice.

The woman seemed to see his helplessness, and hurriedly continued: "It is to sacrifice... the sea monster."
