Crown Sword

Zhang Xiuyi drooled fiercely, his emotions slowly cooled down, but his heart was still in a mess.She went to Pyongyang City a month ago, and when she came back, she found an indescribable strangeness about Qiao Min.Or is there something wrong with this?But the attitude seen today is clearly not bad.

At this time, a purple-clothed guard came and leaned over to whisper to her. Zhang Xiuyi took advantage of the situation and waved his hands to Gongyangyue and the others: "Forget it, today's move is still up to Haihan, whether you want to go or stay, please feel free."

When it comes to this, everyone knows that it is a euphemistic order to evict guests.

As soon as the national teacher left, several people also stood up and stretched their muscles and bones. After Shuang Li had the cheek to pack all the delicacies into the food boxes, they went out with the servants who led the way.

He went to the back door of the National Teacher's Mansion. After all, he had captured people in with great fanfare, and let them out after two hours. Zhang Xiuyi was embarrassed, so he left a message for his servants when he was sending him away at night, to be sneaky.

"The back gardens of other people's houses are planted with flowers and trees, but this National Teacher's Mansion is planted with insect repellent." Cui Tanfeng took a step slowly, paying attention to both sides of her footsteps when she descended the steps.That being said, the garden is indeed eerily quiet. Not only is there no sound of flying insects, but even birds are rarely singing. Birds can't eat insects, so they won't come.

The servant girl snickered: "You guys don't know something, the National Teacher has a special physique, not only attracts mosquitoes, but also attracts flies."

Gong Yangyue put on a smile immediately, glanced at Cui Tanfeng, and joked: "I've only heard of attracting bees and butterflies, but never heard of attracting worms." Now, for the sake of her food, drink and entertainment, let’s not say that she likes likes to flock together..."

Chao Chen knew that he couldn't say anything good, so he hurriedly pushed and dragged the person away.

"Why are you walking so fast, your legs are numb after sitting for a long time." Gong Yangyue lazily followed behind, exerting some hidden strength, making him drag with great effort.

"Leave everything on the line, so we can meet again in the future. If you make fun of her in front of her, she won't care about it, but teasing and sarcasm in front of others will attract hatred." Chao Chen simply threw his hands away if he couldn't drag her away.

Gongyang Yuegao took a look: "You are really upright, hey, I was thinking, don't you have a heart of stone with no likes or dislikes?"

"Yes," Chao Chen answered naturally, "but as the saying goes: you don't slap someone in the face when you hit someone, and you don't expose your shortcomings when you scold someone. It's enough to be a gentleman and a villain. You know it in your heart, so why bother to fight with your mouth."

Gong Yangyue thought for a while, then suddenly said: "Oh, I know, you call me a villain."

Chao Chen was surprised: "How do you say that?"

Gong Yangyue looked at him and then at herself, as if saying: Then why are you so far away from me?Chao Chen was speechless.As far as the matter is concerned, this is clearly a forced hat.

Gongyangyue pretended: "I made a mistake, that's not it, then...you come here and give me a kiss?"

Chao Chen thought he had heard wrongly: "What?"

Gongyangyue has reason and evidence: "Didn't you say that? A gentleman is far from a villain."

Chao Chen flicked his sleeves and strode forward: "You should continue to be a villain." After thinking about it, she felt ashamed, walked a long way, still didn't forget to turn her head, and said, "Yes, I'm just scolding you!"

"Chao Chen! Hey, Chao Chen!"

Gong Yangyue shouted from behind, Chao Chen didn't know what kind of tricks he was playing, and didn't want to tease him with his words, so he pretended he hadn't heard of it, and left even more hastily.

Seeing that the man was about to disappear, Gong Yangyue swept over him lightly, stepped forward and pressed his shoulder.Chao Chen's reaction was quick, and he was ready to strike at any time.

Gong Yangyue couldn't hold back her laughter: "You went the wrong way."

Looking around, Chao Chen found that there was a lot of deviation, the maid who led the way, Cui Tanfeng and Shuang Li were all waiting on another avenue.

"fool."

Gong Yangyue pushed him on the right path, followed behind, and took a step before leaving. Looking back, he caught a glimpse of the flying clothes behind the path, and that kind of indescribable gloom.

The tomb guard enters through another side door, which diverges from the main road, and will not bump into anyone.Zhang Xiuyi was waiting in the guest garden full of camellias, and when he heard footsteps, he happily turned his head to greet him: "Brother Wei, are you here?"

Wei Xi hummed, and took off his bamboo hat: "Yes, the time has come, I'll come and burn incense for her." A man in his prime, who was only in his thirties, was as vicissitudes as a dying person, without any trace. No spirit at all.

Zhang Xiuyi invited him to sit down: "Something happened in Wangcheng this year. The city is under martial law. It is said that there are big robbers and snitches. I will find a way to avoid people's eyes. I'm afraid that the king..." She couldn't continue, she still couldn't believe that the man in front of her was the brother-in-law of Gao An, the king of Goguryeo.

Although this brother-in-law was not recognized by the clan.

Wei Xi exhaled the cold air, rubbed his hands, feeling angry and slightly dissatisfied: "I planned to go to Pyongyang, after all, it was a place where old friends met. If Gao An hadn't built a tomb for Anian in the royal tomb, I would have been hurt again." Before she died, she entrusted her to bring Fu Yuyu back to Wandu Mountain City to protect her, and I will never step into the royal city!"

Zhang Xiuyi had a headache, he didn't want to set foot on it, and the king might not want to see it either.

I heard that the ashes of Princess Gao Nian were thrown into the sea by Wei Xi according to her last wish. When Gao An learned about it, he was almost so angry that he didn't kill him in a fit of anger. Leaving is the best of benevolence.

Zhang Xiuyi poured a cup of tea and taught him to calm down.

Wei Xi really exchanged pleasantries: "Where's your mother? Didn't you go back to Liaodong?"

Zhang Xiuyi dipped his fingers into the tea and tapped it: "I live in seclusion with my father in a small fishing village by the East Sea. To be honest, this place is not suitable for them."

"Could this be the right place for you?" Wei Xi shook his head, "You don't need to carry the past of the Xiu family."

Few people know that the reason why the King of Goguryeo chooses her to stay as a national teacher is just to check and balance the prosperous Qiao family among the Seven Swords Guards.In recent years, under the leadership of Qiao Min, the Qiao family has become more politically involved. The fact that a mere guard is cross-posting in the city to investigate cases is strong evidence.

People from the rivers and lakes with high martial arts skills have always been the court's confidantes.

Her mother Xiuyu's family, Xiuyu, used to be the personal guards of the Fuyu royal family. After the Yan Kingdom defeated Liaodong, the family had no choice but to go south to Wandu Mountain City.King Goguryeo has two direct lineages, one is King Yingwei, selected from the children of the family, the other is Seven Swords Guards, recruited and trained from Jianghu masters, and the Xiu family once competed with the Qiao family for the post of guard chief. It's a feud, and disagreement is natural.

Zhang Xiuyi smiled wryly: "It's also not suitable, but here, there is a reason why I have to stay."

Wei Xi calmed down and took a sip of tea: "That kid from the Qiao family?"

Zhang Xiuyi blushed immediately, and shook her head in embarrassment desperately to deny it, but even if she could convince others, she was just deceiving herself. When she first met, she was indeed fighting for the old affairs of Xiu and Qiao's family, but since she had intentions, she stayed to leave. He is closer.

"It's not a good marriage." Wei Xi said very straightforwardly.

After all, he was an elder, seeing that he didn't stop him, Zhang Xiuyi was relieved.

Whether the marriage is good or not, shouldn't it be self-knowledge?What's more, it's hard to say whether there is a marriage.

Wei Xi patted her head: "Don't follow in the footsteps of me and Anian."

Zhang Xiuyi blurted out: "Why did Princess Anian die?"

Wei Xi's face was very ugly, and it took a long time before he squeezed out three words between his teeth: "Fuyu jade." Fuyu jade was just a primer to ignite the gunpowder, and the real fatality was the Fuyu treasure behind it.

----

Back at the inn, Chao Chen had already filled his mouth with words, and now he has a suitable opportunity to talk about the things that were difficult to say in the National Teacher's Mansion just now.

If Zhang Xiuyi hadn't lied——

"Could it be that Qiao Min had other plans, so he deliberately didn't recognize each other?" After all, the Seven Sword Guards set foot in the palace, so they would naturally be entangled in affairs beyond their control.

Cui Tanfeng said: "It's hard to make a conclusion."

Chao Chen thought of another possibility: "Could it really be two people, such as twins?"

Gong Yangyue said: "It's hard to say."

Only Shuang Li was more concerned about the national teacher: "Did she just let us go?" As she asked, she worriedly checked the doors and windows three times to make sure that there were no stray cats or dogs outside.

"Don't look at her thick head, she is actually smart. If she asks me to help him investigate, I will definitely not agree. The more you talk like this, the more people will investigate. You, and you, no Is that all the same?" Gong Yangyue's eyes glided over Chao Chen and Cui Tanfeng, at least up until now, they were really thinking about Qiao Min's weirdness.

Chao Chen always asks some strange ideas: "Why do you disagree?"

"Naturally rebellious, I like to fight against each other, do you have an opinion?" Gong Yangyue sneered, "Besides, why should I help her, who is she, she has such a big face."

For some reason, after a while, Chao Chen would have the illusion that Gongyangyue was easy to talk, until he choked to death on a single word, and then went round and round again and again.

"How much face does that cost? Who can please?" Chao Chen asked casually without thinking about it.

Gong Yangyue raised her eyes: "For example, you."

"Ahem," Chao Chen choked, and hurried over to pull Gong Yangyue away, avoiding people, and changed the subject, "I don't like sweets, don't stuff me with so many sweet-scented osmanthus cakes, my stomach is full now It's that smell..."

Gong Yangyue leaned closer and sniffed lightly: "Scent."

Seeing that wolf-like eyes, but still full of energy, Chao Chen gave a push and asked, "Speaking of business, what's your plan?"

Gong Yangyue didn't even think about it, and replied: "Of course I checked it myself. The Qiao family is such a big family that if you can run away, the monk can't run away from the temple."

"Isn't the national teacher much smoother than us?"

"Oh, you don't understand," Gongyangyue squinted, "Her thoughts are written all over her face, although an ugly daughter-in-law always wants to see her in-laws, but how to see her is a headache," he paused He paused, with a smile on his lips, as if he was waiting for a good show, "When you enter the front door, she doesn't agree with the surname Qiao, so go quietly, what if she gets caught?"

----

The wind blows at night, swaying dead branches, and the first snow falls in Marudu Mountain City.

"Qiao Min" woke up from the dream, turned over and sat up, but surprised the man standing in front of the sink washing his hands.Ding Baichuan put the handkerchief back on the shelf, then turned around, and asked softly, "Did you have a nightmare?"

"Mr. Ding, why are you here?" "Qiao Min" squinted his eyes halfway, put his hand on his temple and twisted it.

Ding Baichuan was surprised: "Didn't you write to me?"

"Qiao Min" thought about it carefully, and felt sorry: "Yes, I'm sorry...Mr. Ding, I, I think I'm about to lose my hold. I didn't expect that Zhang Xiuyi looked like a rich man, but he was actually so difficult. She...she As for my brother, I can learn from her... demeanor, manners, and even her style of acting, but I can't learn her emotions, I can't face a woman I admire..." He suddenly held his head in his hands, in uncontrollable pain, "If you can't get Fu Yuyu again, you won't be able to exchange with King Wei, and you won't be able to save him..."

... There is no way to save his real monarch, Baekje, King Ashen.

He raised his head, his eyes were confused, and he shouted: "I dreamed of him again! I dreamed that he was holding my hand and begging me to save his subjects. He didn't want to be a slave of the whole country and submit to Goguryeo. At your feet. Mr. Ding, I dreamed that he jumped off the tower of Juba City covered in blood, and he didn’t want to leave the battlefield with me. I..."

Dingling——

Ding Baichuan picked up the exquisite gold ball hanging on his belt, and gently shook it next to his ear, there seemed to be balls in the ball, hitting the inner wall, making a crisp sound like wind bells.

"Joe Min" calmed down.

Ding Baichuan hissed and sighed: "Have you thought it through?"

"I don't want to be anyone's shadow. It's the king who made me feel that I can be myself. I'm not Qiao Min, nor the commander of the Seven Swords Guards." "Qiao Min" raised his head, his eyes burning, " There are two sayings in the Central Plains, one is 'a scholar should die for his confidant', and the other is 'dedicate himself to death and then die'."

Ding Baichuan was a little hesitant.

He really wanted to ask: Then why don't you go to the Central Plains in the name of Qiao Min? Since you want to get rid of it, why not completely?But he didn't make up his mind in the end, he just turned his face away and said indifferently: "If you go forward indomitably, then why don't you worry about it?"

"Qiao Min" pondered for a while, and said eagerly: "Gongyangyue is here, if he knows the truth..."

"Let him know."

"Qiao Min" was stunned, accidentally knocked over the cold water he brought over, and couldn't believe what he heard: "Why?"

Ding Baichuan stood with his hands behind his back, pacing in the room: "There is a legend in the Central Plains that Yu the Great used to control the water. Yu's father, Gun, used the strategy of 'blocking' the water control, and finally failed. Use the 'grooming' method. In the same way, the more you cover up, the more suspicious you will be."

"what do you mean……"

"Have been together for so long, and still don't know your companions well? From what you said earlier, they are all people who are prudent and discerning, and they know how to choose an opportunity, so they know how to retreat in adversity. What kind of muddy water they will definitely You will not get involved in the internal affairs of other countries, as long as you let them know who you are and who you are for, they will definitely leave."

"Qiao Min" jumped off the couch and didn't even care about putting on his clothes: "I'll tell."

Ding Baichuan stopped him: "No, let them check one by one."

With Gongyangyue's personality, he would definitely not eat what was delivered to his mouth, and he would never believe what was delivered to his door.The window was still open, and "Qiao Min" was standing in the cool breeze in his single clothes, in a trance, the person in front of him was obviously just listening to him talking about what he had seen and heard in the past year, but he seemed to know Gongyangyue's personality well.

"Then please, sir." "Joe Min" cupped his hands.

"It's okay." Ding Baichuan waved his hand, looked at Kelou, it was still early in the morning, so he advised him to rest and get enough energy to deal with it later.

"Joe Min" lay back.

Ding Baichuan walked out, and when he pushed the door, he suddenly asked: "Eighteen, if you fail, what will you choose?"

"Qiao Min" stared at the beam without any hesitation: "I will use my life to protect him. This is my real mission."

Ding Baichuan closed the door.

"Mission? I see."
