Bright moon out of Tianshan

Zhao Guo's imperial doctor was very embarrassed by this pain, so he could only order to wipe the joints with the tiger bone wine, and then drink more wine, because if you drink too much, you will easily get angry.This time and a half can't relieve the pain anyway.

Zhao Yuancai looked at him tossing and turning in pain in bed, while gnashing his teeth and secretly cursing him for what he did, but at the same time, a bit of annoyance surfaced in his heart.In the end, he couldn't stand it any longer, and flung his sleeves to leave, but Xiao Jian stretched out his hand and grabbed his sleeves, begging, "Your Majesty, when I'm well, let me go to the barracks on Guangchang Road. I don't want to In the palace, let people see me as a male pet."

Zhao Yuancai turned around, looked at his pale face and cold sweat, and finally said, "I'll take you there when you're well."

Xiao Jian always wanted to get well soon, but his wish was not fulfilled, and he was tortured by the pain every night, making it difficult to sleep.After seven or eight days of tossing like this, Xu Siqing came to the palace to ask to see the emperor, wanted to visit Xiao Jian, and asked Taoist Master Yu Lingzi to prepare some medicine for him.Zhao Yuancai agreed, and asked him what he brought to Xiao Jian, Xu Siqing respectfully said: "My minister brought the general Jiangnan famous wine Jinlingchun, please let him taste it. If your majesty doesn't mind it, you can also taste it."

Zhao Yuancai waved his hand and said, "The wine in the south is boring. You go and play, as long as you don't take him out of Mingjietang."

Xu Siqing quickly agreed, and the accompanying servants carried wine and various side dishes from the south of the Yangtze River into Mingjie Hall.Xiao Jian hadn't seen him for a long time, and he was very happy. Xu Siqing saw that Mingjie Hall was heavily guarded by soldiers, and he heard some rumors, but he didn't dare to ask more questions, and only talked about other gossip.The two of them accidentally drank too much wine while they were talking, and then Xu Siqing went to find Yu Lingzi Shuangxiu on his own.Xiao Jian was half asleep, but fell asleep peacefully.

Seeing that it was feasible, he sent people to Xu Siqing to order more than ten jars of Jin Lingchun. Whenever the pain was unbearable and he couldn't sleep well, he would use wine to relieve the pain.In this way, I have developed a habit, and I am half drunk and half awake every day.

The pain gradually improved slightly, so when Xiao Jian went to the military camp on Guangchang Road, he also brought more than a dozen jars of this wine, all of which were provided by Xu Siqing for free.Xiumei followed him, but Linglong and Dingxiang were detained in the palace by Zhao Yuancai. Zhao Yuancai made it very clear that they were hostages, and they were allowed to come back to visit once in a while, but they were not allowed to take them away.

In the barracks, even though all the military affairs of Xiao Jian's subordinates were handed over to him, his people were still guarded by a large number of personal guards sent by Zhao Yuancai, and even Xiumei couldn't find a chance to talk to him alone .In the eyes of everyone, this emperor's favored minister is really extraordinary, but there is something strange inside.

Xiao Jian is now used to it, and it is very convenient for a few guards to shout and shout, so he no longer treats them politely.He is easy-going and lively by nature, and he got to know these soldiers very quickly, and he was like a fish in water.

After all, the military camp was not as airtight as the imperial palace, and the news came one after another.Eastern Qi occupied Luzhou, Zhao Guo's reinforcements arrived, fought bloody battles several times, but failed to take it back in the end.From this point on, although Zhao Guo was ready to fight, Dong Qi's soldiers and horses made a big step forward across the board, and finally broke the previous stalemate.

Zhao Yuancai was very angry, packed up a group of soldiers and horses in full swing, and marched again.But before he left, Shu Xingcao sent someone to summon him and asked him to go to Jianyun Ranch.He couldn't disobey the old uncle's face, so he had to take the time to go there amidst the many opportunities.

The ranch is now desolate. In the afterglow of the setting sun, Shu Xingcao took him to a place where there was no one, and said solemnly: "Ah Cai, I only have you as a nephew. In my heart, it doesn't matter whether you are the emperor, but you are my junior." I'll say a few words to you one last time, it's up to you whether you listen or not. Don't let Xiaoxiao follow you anymore. If you don't want to kill him, let him go back to Dongqi. Or you can bring him over and give it to me. , I will send him to Tianshan to find an old friend to learn art, and he is not allowed to come back. When your prince grows up and you don’t want to stay in Taiyuan, you can go to him again, okay?”

Zhao Yuancai leaned on the rough log fence, meditated for a moment, turned around, and met Shu Xingcao's probing eyes, but he became a playful smile again: "Uncle, I just thought he looks good, but I didn't take it seriously. Nephew There are many people in the harem, so I don’t care about him alone. Now he has been sent to the eastern barracks, and he is left there idle. He will not be taken to war in the future, and he will not be allowed to go to Taiyuan easily. Don’t worry. !"

Shu Xingcao sighed, "You're fooling me. You don't even listen to your uncle!"

Zhao Yuancai hurriedly said: "No, he is really on Guangchang Road. Uncle, nephew just can't swallow this breath. As the king of a country, nephew can have whatever he wants, but he always looks down on him. I will fight this time." Come back after a victory and show him, let him know that his eyebrows are high and his eyes are low, and then it will not be too late to deal with him!"

No matter what he said, Shu Xingcao just insisted on his own opinion with a somber face, while Zhao Yuancai laughed and talked about it, disagreed with each other, and finally the nephew and uncle broke up unhappy.

Zhao Yuancai regrouped and led his troops to the front.Of course, the soldiers and horses on Guangchang Road have no role and can only stay where they are.Xiao Jian also had no part this time, he could only pick up some bits and pieces of news from the rear. Today Dong Qi won a small victory, tomorrow Zhao Guo took advantage of it, and it was nothing more than that.

Xiao Jian had nothing to do that day, so he took a group of guards and Xiu Mei to his room to drink together.A group of guards were very vigilant and didn't dare to drink too much. Xiao Jian saw that he had overwhelmed himself first, went to lie down on the bed and fell asleep, and the rest of them dared to drink to their heart's content.

In the middle of the night, Xiao Jian opened his eyes, looked at the drunk people passing by, and called softly, "Xiumei, I want a drink of water."

Sure enough, Xiumei didn't drink too much, struggled out from the crowd, poured him a cup of tea and brought it over, Xiao Jian drank the water, and said in a low voice: "Go to bed, lie on the ground to be cold." Xiumei said: " Alright." Turning around, he ordered the sleeping points of all the people in the room again, before he climbed onto the bed, plunged into his bed, and said with a soft smile, "They are all drunk."

Xiao Jian hummed, and said: "On weekdays, you are really strict, and you don't even let him say a word." Xiu Mei touched his hand, and said: "Does your bone still hurt?"

Xiao Jian said: "I'm used to the pain, and I don't feel much about it. It's just that the internal energy is not as smooth as before, and it may take a while to recover. Alas, if I can have a better doctor to show me, it may be better, but it's a pity that I can't leave. It's too far away." The battle at the front line was intense, and he and Xiao Xuefei couldn't see each other, so they completely lost contact with Gao Huai and Lin Zaichun.

Xiumei said: "How about I rub it for you?" Xiao Jian said: "Forget it, save some effort." He turned his head to look at Xiumei's still childish face, and asked: "You still miss home now. In no mood?"

Xiumei said: "What's the use of thinking? I can't go back. Big brother, I will tell you why I came to Taiyuan today while there is no one. You know that our Xiu's sword is the same as your Yuma Jintang Xiao's sword. As a family of martial arts, we used to be known as "Swords Overwhelming the World" in the rivers and lakes, but it was all the glory of the past. In my grandfather's generation, the head of the family was addicted to gambling and ruined the family property. To me, my father is the head of the family , there are many people in the family, and they are not good at management. The outside shelf is too big, and the inside is already making ends meet, and the livelihood is difficult. My father had some friendship with the head of the Thirteen Banners in the early years. The Thirteen Banners relied on the power of the Eastern Qi Dynasty. Power, occupying the waterway operation rights of many rivers, my father wanted to rely on them to do something to supplement the family, the head of the Wang family agreed, but proposed that my father would send a son to join the Thirteen Banners, and he promised that he would not treat him badly. In fact, he is a hostage, using it to control my father. Among the brothers and sisters, I am the best, so I volunteered to go."

Sect Master Wang kept his word, but he did not treat me badly.Bai Lirong and I were sent to Taiyuan last year. I didn't want to come, but thinking of the situation at home, I had no choice but to come.We came here because the eldest prince gave us a mission. First, try to kill Princess Anya and take this opportunity to provoke a war between the two countries.Second, find the secret road left by the royal family of Zhao State under Taiyuan City, and make preparations for taking Zhao State in one fell swoop in the future. "

Xiao Jian was startled, and said in a voiceless voice: "What?" Xiumei quickly covered his mouth with his hand, and said in a low voice: "Take it easy, listen to me and you. The assassination of the third prince was also given by the eldest prince temporarily." The order, but it was not completed in the end. As for the secret passage, you know that the emperors of Zhao State have to build the mausoleum for as many years as they have been in office, and they will not stop until the day they die. It is said that every In every mausoleum, there is a secret passage leading to Taiyuan City. It is just that the ancestors knew that the world was changing, and wanted to leave a way for future generations to escape in times of crisis, but in order to prevent others from knowing, they did not want to make a big deal of it. Repairing the mausoleum. The craftsmen who repaired the mausoleum will inevitably die in the end. Now there are seventeen emperors in the Zhao Kingdom, so there should be seventeen secret passages. I don’t know how this news reached the ears of the eldest prince. Even if he was sent to Youzhou to get the distribution map of the secret tunnel wholeheartedly, he never gave up."

Xiao Jian's heart jumped wildly, he took a deep breath, tried his best to suppress the shock, and asked tentatively: "Then, have you got the distribution map of the secret passage?"

Xiumei sighed slightly, and said: "It is estimated that Baili Rong took it, but he said that it might be fake, I guess he didn't want to give it to me, you know, we have been at odds, I don't want to Talk to him more. Otherwise, I can go home after I hand over the errand. He wants to hand it directly to His Highness the First Prince. He and His Highness the First Prince... He listens to him..." His words faltered and became ambiguous, Xiao Jian smiled, understood in his heart, and asked casually: "I remember you told me that Baili Rong was greedy for the prosperity of Zhao State and didn't want to go back. Has this idea changed?"

Xiumei said: "But he also said that the emperor of Zhao State was too careless, and he would change his mind if he said it, which is really unreliable. So I still want to use this picture to negotiate with the eldest prince, and I am not too sure about asking for a condition or something. know their business."

Xiao Jian frowned and pondered, and then he said, "What are you thinking about? Do you... want this secret passage distribution map too?"

Xiao Jian said: "I was thinking, I suddenly felt..." He smiled and shook his head, Xiao Xuefei came to steal the jade seal, Baili Rong and Xiumei came to steal the secret road map, and he came to... Shu The cursive said that Zhao Yuancai's harem was smoky, it seems that the old man has a sharp vision and is not talking nonsense.

He thought for a moment, and said solemnly: "A gentleman does not take away people's love, I don't want it. Since the eldest prince wants it, give it to him. Are you still in touch?"
