Beauty is sick

Youzhou and Yecheng are similar in geographical location, they are both adjacent to foreign countries, and the enemy countries are eyeing them, so they prepare for war all the year round.

Since the Youzhou Incident, after the deaths of Yun Teng and He Yu, and since Zhang Yaori took office, the garrison generals have not changed. At the same time, this place is also one of the centers of the right minister's power.

Jin Lingjiu frowned, and asked Zuo Ping to enter the room: "What's going on?"

Zuo Ping's eyes were sharp: "Our people sent back news that the Xi Kingdom suddenly attacked, and the Youzhou Army suffered heavy losses."

Pei Zhe hurriedly asked: "Why did you attack suddenly? I remember that Youzhou has been very peaceful in recent years."

Jin Lingjiu intertwined his hands, and twitched his fingertips: "After Zhang Yaori took office, there was no big war in Youzhou, but small wars. Your father mentioned yesterday that the right minister is a party or colluding with foreign enemies. The situation in Youzhou is mostly multi-faceted. It was promoted, and now that the sudden change is happening, it must be something big happened to the country of Xi."

Xi State borders Zhao State, and has been eyeing Youzhou with covetous eyes.

Zuo Ping nodded: "That's right, although the news hasn't spread yet, the spies in the country of Xi have returned the news that the old emperor of the country of Xi has passed away."

Pei Zhe's eyes widened: "How could the news not spread about such a big event?"

Zuo Ping replied: "Prince Xi is imprisoned, and now the third prince is in power."

Jin Lingjiu smiled inexplicably: "Dead? The old emperor may have died by some means. The third prince imprisoned his elder brother. I'm afraid it was premeditated. It seems that the Youzhou incident was his stepping stone."

Pei Zhe frowned, and quickly thought about what he had to do: "The third prince's rebellion must have been planned early in the morning, otherwise it would be impossible for no news to be released, and the attack on Youzhou was also intentional. I'm afraid he will not achieve his goal I will not give up, if this happens, there will be a fierce battle in Youzhou."

"That's right." Jiang Yulou's eyes were stern, and he came in from outside the house with his hands behind his back, "The safety of Youzhou will not only affect Zhao Kingdom, but also bring great changes to the power of the imperial court. Losing a large part of the power, our sage has endured for many years, and I am afraid that this is the opportunity that we have been waiting for."

When he said the last sentence, Jiang Yulou kept looking at Pei Zhe, his eyes were depressed, and there was something in his words.

Pei Zhe didn't care about his temptation at all at this time, and turned to look at Jinling Jiu: "The First Floor under Heaven should have its own way to convey information. The situation is urgent. I want to send a letter to Huaizhou City."

Jin Lingjiu raised his eyes, and his eyes seemed to glance at Jiang Yulou next to him unintentionally: "Send a letter to Fu Qingliu?"

It's not difficult to guess, at present in Huaizhou City, Fu Qingliu is the only person who can be in charge, and there is still a teacher-student relationship between Master Taifu and Tan Hualang, so it is understandable for Pei Zhe to think of him at the first time.

Pei Zhe nodded: "The matter in Youzhou should not be underestimated, and the massacre of the city must not be repeated. The teacher came out of Beijing this time, bringing the imperial court with him. If the Holy One really has plans, the teacher should know how to deal with it."

Jiang Yulou was taken aback for a moment: "Teacher?"

When he was in Yecheng, Jin Lingjiu knew about it, and Pei Zhe forgot to cover it up for a moment. Now that Jiang Yulou asked him, he realized that he was also stunned for a moment, looking at Jinling Jiu with a little surprise , seems to be asking "Didn't you tell him?"

Jin Lingjiu pursed his lips and shook his head slightly: "I haven't told anyone about you."

Pei Zhe glanced at him determinedly, and smiled: "Since he is related to Xiao Jiu'er, it's okay to know. Mr. Jiang doesn't know something. Fu Qingliu is my teacher."

Two celebrities in Zhao Kingdom, Jiangyang Fu Qingliu and Huaiyin Jiang Yulou, the two have a close relationship and were once close friends.

Jiang Yulou took a tight breath, and the words he whispered were in a trance for a moment, like a sigh: "You are actually his disciple."

Pei Zhe didn't know why, so he just felt that his reaction was a bit weird and seemed too out of control.

Jin Lingjiu gave Zuo Ping an order: "Take Mr. Pei to the study to write a letter, be sure to send the letter to Huaizhou City as soon as possible."

Pei Zhe retracted his gaze from Jiang Yulou, and left with Zuo Ping.

Jin Lingjiu poured a cup of tea and pushed it in front of Jiang Yulou: "What is the relationship between Master and Taifu? When he was in Yecheng, he asked me about you."

Jiang Yulou suddenly raised his head: "Have you met him?"

Jin Lingjiu nodded: "At that time, I was eating with Pei Zhe, and we chatted with him when we met him. He seemed to know Master very well, and he also said that the tune you taught me was not Jiang Yang's tune, but his old friend's."

"So that's how it is, that's how it is..." Jiang Yulou's expression changed unpredictablely, "You found me because of him, right?"

Jiang Yulou hid a lot from him. He knew the truth not much earlier than Pei Zhe. If he hadn't met Fu Qingliu in Yecheng, he would never have suspected Jiang Yulou.

Jin Lingjiu shook the cup and looked at the ripples on the tea soup: "Facts have proved that Master has many secrets."

Jiang Yulou lowered his eyelids, as if he didn't hear the sarcasm in his words: "So he found Jiangyang, and you pointed the way."

The most dangerous place is the safest place. He has been hiding in Jiangyang for more than ten years, and he never thought that he would be found by Fu Qingliu one day.

"Look at him being troubled by love, he casually helped me a little." Jin Lingjiu took a sip of tea, "Is Master hiding from him? What's the relationship between you two?"

Jiang Yulou didn't answer his question, but silently glanced at him, got up and left.

The old man who was following behind clicked his tongue and gave Jin Lingjiu a thumbs up: "You will clean up all his little things."

Jin Lingjiu smiled lightly: "Aren't Uncle Bai going to explain my doubts?"

The old man, also known as Uncle Bai, waved his hands again and again: "I dare not, don't you understand his temperament? I don't want to make any more excuses. If you are curious, you can check it yourself."

Uncle Bai is Mu Jiao's master. He has taught Jinling Jiu and Zuo Ping's martial arts. He has followed Jiang Yulou since Jinling Jiu could remember.

Jiang Yulou doesn't know a little bit of martial arts, and Uncle Bai is his friend and has always played the role of protecting him.

Jin Lingjiu didn't force it, and after talking to Uncle Bai, he got up and went to the study. He cared more about Pei Zhe than Jiang Yulou's personal affairs.

Pei Zhe quickly wrote the letter and handed it to Zuo Ping: "It's troublesome."

When Jin Lingjiu came over, not long after Zuo Ping left with the letter, Pei Zhe was the only one left in the study, standing in front of the table with a pen, not knowing what he was doing.

Jin Lingjiu walked lightly, walked to the desk, and looked at the rice paper spread out on the desk with great interest.

The food and clothing on the first floor of the world are the best. This study is only used by Jinlingjiu alone. The pens, inks, papers and inkstones are all expensive and good things.

Pei Zhe held a pen in his right hand, with his left hand behind his back, and carefully traced the eyebrows and eyes of the person in his heart. After a while, a graceful person appeared on the rice paper.

Just separated for such a short time, his family Jiaojiao missed him, and lo and behold, the painting was all painted.

Jin Lingjiu raised his eyebrows, in a good mood: "Pei Lang Danqing is outstanding."

There is a brass incense burner made of lotus flowers on the desk, which is extraordinarily finely made. Layers of petals are spread out little by little, and wisps of green smoke float out of the incense burner, blown into a curved line by the wind, Spread out slowly.

The smoke was lingering, as if the person in the painting was about to walk off the paper in the next second.

Not afraid of him watching, Pei Zhe put down his brush: "I paint my heart, what do Xiao Jiu'er think of this painting?"

"Very good." Jin Lingjiu smiled, "So I am like this in Pei Lang's mind."

Pei Zhe folded his arms and leaned against the desk: "What is this like?"

Jin Lingjiu picked up the painting on the table, and said slowly: "It's so graceful, with the jade tree facing the wind, unrestrained and unrestrained, like an immortal from the sky, who once fell into the mortal world."

Pei Zhe: "..."

Jin Lingjiu touched his face, pretending to be distressed: "I was born with such a good-looking face, it's too attractive."

Pei Zhe rolled his eyes at him angrily: "You also know that you seduce people."

Jin Lingjiu let out a muffled laugh, spread the painting on the table, and carefully flattened it: "I really like the self in Pei Lang's pen. When I ask someone to frame this painting, I can hang it in our room."

"Come on, I haven't seen a portrait of myself hanging in anyone's room." Pei Zhe flicked his wrist, and fell into the arms of the person in front of him, "What do you think about the Youzhou matter?"

Jinling Jiuxu put his shoulders on his shoulders, and said casually: "I don't have any opinion, it has nothing to do with me anyway."

Pei Zhe bumped his forehead against his chest: "I'm telling you something serious, do you want to get involved in this matter?"

In fact, the answer is very clear. Zuo Ping mentioned in the report that there are spies from the No. [-] Floor in Xi’s country. If Jinling Jiu has no idea about Youzhou, it will not do anything unnecessary.

Jin Lingjiu pondered for a moment, then nodded: "I have to go to Youzhou."

Pei Zhe sighed, his voice muffled: "Jin Lingjiu, what exactly do you want to do?"

From Huaizhou City to Yecheng City, and now you have to get involved in the affairs of Youzhou, it is absolutely impossible for Jinling Jiu to be full.

Jin Lingjiu's tone was calm, without any emotion: "Want to know?"

Pei Zhe was still nestled in his arms, without looking up: "I want to know everything about you."

This is a rather flattering answer.

Obviously, Jin Lingjiu didn't like this: "Then what about you, holding the court's token, looking for someone, after you find him, what are you going to do?"

The words were not clear, but both of them knew in their hearts who the person was looking for was.

Pei Zhe took a deep breath on his chest, humming and chirping: "If you don't say it, you don't say it, and you block me with words, and you keep saying that you like me, but I don't think you like me much."

Jin Lingjiu was both angry and funny: "Why, the beauty trick failed, and you started to become angry from embarrassment?"

Pei Zhe didn't answer, grabbed his hand and took a bite, feeling ashamed and angry.

Choosing a day is worse than bumping into it. After eating at noon, Jin Lingjiu counted the number of people and prepared to leave in the afternoon for Youzhou.

Naturally, Pei Zhe accompanied him, and before leaving, he went to find Pei's father.Jinlingjiu had no intention of releasing Pei's father and mother, Pei Zhe thought for a long time, and felt that this place was safer than Xiaoxiang, so he went with Jinlingjiu.

The incident in the wedding hall yesterday was not very pleasant. Both father and son felt pimples in their hearts. Pei Zhe originally wanted to be cold for a few days before talking to his parents, but it turned out that the incident in Youzhou happened. I don’t know when we meet next time. what time is it.

Jin Lingjiu didn't bother them, chatted with Mu Jiao for a while, but didn't see each other while eating, and heard from Zuo Ping that something was wrong with Mu Jiao, so he just came over to check.

"Mu'er has something on his mind?"

Ever since he called Pei Zhe "Jiaojiao", Jin Lingjiu didn't call him Mu Jiao like that anymore, because he was older than Mu Jiao, so it's not wrong to call him "Mu'er" along with Jiang Yulou.

Mu Jiao was a little uneasy: "Brother..."

Jin Lingjiu took a look at her: "If you feel uncomfortable, just stay and rest, and don't have to run around."

The little girl's face was ugly, her eyes were black and blue, and she knew she didn't sleep well last night.

Mu Jiao shook her head, but stopped talking.

Jin Lingjiu rubbed her head: "If you have anything to say, tell senior brother, don't hold it in your heart."

"Senior brother, daddy..." Still unable to say anything, Mu Jiao wiped her face, "Senior brother, don't worry about me, I'm fine, but there's something I can't figure out, I'll think about it."

Jin Lingjiu didn't force it, and raised his hand to greet people: "Go to the kitchen and bring over all the ready-made dim sum."

He looked at Mu Jiao, and said in a gentle voice: "I asked the small kitchen to prepare a lot of snacks in the morning. There are several kinds you like. Eat a little, and then take a rest. Let's go out in the afternoon."

Mu Jiao raised a smile: "Okay, thank you brother."

The snacks are all freshly made in the small kitchen on the first floor of the world. There are many varieties, and I took some of each type. There was no need for a food box, and the plates were brought back in a pile.

Pei Zhe didn't delay too long, and soon finished talking to Father Pei, and his face was a little dignified after he came out.

Jin Lingjiu pushed the plate of dim sum in front of him: "The freshly made dim sum are all new designs in Luling City. Try it and see which one is better than the ones in the capital. .”

There were five or six kinds of snacks in different shapes on the porcelain plate, Pei Zhe looked at it freshly, he was not very hungry, but the hospitality was hard to turn down, so he just picked one and stuffed it into his mouth.

The chefs in the first floor of the world are highly skilled. This dim sum is not only small and delicate, but also very gratifying, and the taste is also good.

After eating one, Pei Zhe immediately became interested, and tasted the tea with great interest: "Does the small kitchen make many different kinds of snacks every day?"

Jin Lingjiu: "I have to make it every day, but there are not so many kinds. You can try each of them and see which one you like. When you come back, let them make it for you every day."

"I'm so sorry, I like the one with the peach blossom shape." He said, picking up the last peach blossom cake and stuffing it into his mouth.

"That's peach blossom cake, I like to eat it too." After Jin Lingjiu finished speaking, he moved closer, his voice lowered a little, "It is said that you can eat people with soft hands and short mouths, Jiaojiao, don't just eat it by yourself, feed me too. "

Pei Zhe ate happily, and raised his chin: "Which one do you want to eat?"

Jin Lingjiu poked his puffed cheeks: "I also want to eat peach blossom cakes."

Pei Zhe stopped chewing, and raised his eyebrows and eyes with a bit of complacency, full of childishness: "There is no peach blossom cake, the last piece is already in my mouth."

Jin Lingjiu sighed pretendingly: "Then I can only reluctantly share it with Pei Lang."

Lu Ling was not too far from Youzhou, the carriage was moving slowly, and Pei Zhe and Jin Lingjiu kissed in the carriage.

Jin Lingjiu took a sip of tea with his hand: "The peach blossom cake in Pei Lang's mouth seems to be extraordinarily sweet."

Pei Zhebai gave him a white look: "Snatching food from other people's mouths, you don't seem to be a bit of a clean freak."

Jin Lingjiu didn't take it seriously: "My Jiaojiao is not someone else."

In the next few days, I have been traveling slowly.

Pei Zhe originally thought that Jin Lingjiu was going to Youzhou in a hurry and would not be delayed on the road, but they seemed to be wandering, passing a city during the period, and Jin Lingjiu even dragged him in for a stroll.

After finally reaching the vicinity of Youzhou, Jinling Jiu was still in no hurry, and found a village, and a group of people lived there directly.

Pei Zhe didn't understand, so he asked, "Aren't we going to the city?"

Jin Lingjiu leaned against him as if he had no bones: "Don't worry, go pick up your son first."

Pei Zhe: "???"

Two more.
