The prince is very fierce

Chapter 16: A glimpse of the whole picture (191/513)

The glacier flowed deep into the valley, and it was already night before I knew it.

Xu Buling lay on the river and rested for a while, suppressing the turbulence in his chest and abdomen, and stopped at a bend in the barren mountains.

Crash--

Xu Buling stood up from the water, dragged the water drops to the river bank, sat down on the rocks on the river beach, tore off the torn strips of robes on his body, and simply dealt with a few wounds on his body.

Not long after I sat down, the sound of flapping wings came from the sky. A small sparrow circled in the sky and flew back again.

"Yes or no?!... Yes or no?"

The call came from the rugged and roadless valley. Zhongli Jiujiu emerged from the dense winter forest, with beads of sweat hanging on his forehead. His eyes were full of anxiety. After seeing Xu Buring sitting by the river beach, he raised his The skirt jumped out of the forest and ran to the front:

"Xu Bu Ling! Are you...are you okay?..."

Xu Buling bit the cloth and wrapped it tightly around the wound on his shoulder, then turned his head:

"You are a doctor, asking me?"

"..."

Zhongli Jiujiu ran forward and squatted down, pulled up the hem of her skirt to reveal her shiny legs, took off the medicine bottle from the leg ring, and then carefully inspected Xu Buling's injuries.

There were four wounds on his body, but they all avoided the vital points and were just superficial injuries. There was a slap mark on his chest. Although there was no external injury, it looked bruised.

Zhongli Jiujiu quickly held Xu Buling's wrist and examined it - the inner breath was a bit chaotic, but not to the extent of internal injury to the hand. It seemed to be in good condition...

Xu Buling sat on the stone on the river beach and was touched by Zhongli Jiujiu. His eyes subconsciously moved to the shining leg beside him. It could be regarded as a way to relieve pain... The curves were round and slender, and the tension was very strong. , the dark place between the legs cannot be clearly seen, but it is also a bit more hazy and attractive...

Zhongli Chuchu took her pulse carefully for a moment, and slowly noticed Xu Buling's gaze. He frowned, quickly put his legs together, and pulled up his skirt to cover it:

"At this time, you are still... reincarnated as a pervert, are you?"

Xu Buling coughed lightly, thought for a while, coughed a few more times, and fell back:

"Uh...I don't think I can do it anymore..."

Zhongli Jiujiu is a doctor. He raised his hand to support Xu Buling's back and said angrily: "I can't die... I just have to rest for two days. I saw you were beaten so badly just now. I thought you were seriously injured. It looks like It’s nothing…”

Seeing that he couldn't deceive Zhongli Jiujiu, Xu Buling gave up and shook his head: "We still have to go to Bodhi Island. It's not a life-or-death fight, and it's not worthwhile to go all out, so I'm a little embarrassed. Chen Daozi probably has some reservations and doesn't go all out. I mean, I ran away with some internal injuries."

"It's really lawless..."

Zhongli Jiujiu checked several times and found that Xu Buling was fine. He relaxed a little, tore off the hem of her skirt, poured the golden sore medicine on Xu Buling to bandage the wound, and said angrily:

"You are the prince of the vassal. What's wrong with the emperor's people? The wolf guards are just watchdogs under the Song family, and they are biting the master. When you go back, complain to your father and let him lead troops to level Wudang Mountain. , General Xu was able to lead his troops to South Vietnam back then, and he can still scare children so much that they dare not cry. A Wudang Mountain man takes himself too seriously..."

Xu Buling thought for a moment: "Chen Daozi and that swordsman are not Wolf Guards, nor are they here for the Tang family."

"Huh?" Zhongli Jiujiu was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and frowned: "Not the Wolf Guard? Wudang Mountain is the state religion of Dayue, and it has always been close to the royal family. Apart from the current emperor, who can invite him to fight? you?"

Xu Buling just saw the ruthlessness of the two men's attacks, and felt something was wrong: "Chen Daozi dared to attack me, and he did it so simply, because he knew that I couldn't touch him. If it was the person arranged by Song Ji, he would attack so hard. , I will lie down and pretend to be dead when I go out, and let Song Ji give my father an explanation. Song Ji has to stabilize the overall situation, and it is impossible for him to make such a stupid move for the sake of a Tang family, and even if such a stupid move does happen, Chen Daozi will not do it. Silly, if Song Ji can't suppress Xiliang afterwards, he will definitely send Chen Daozi out to take the blame."

Zhongli Jiujiu thought about it carefully and nodded lightly: "It seems so. If it's not the emperor, who could it be?"

Xu Buling snorted softly: "If I go out to complain now, if Song Ji doesn't know the inside story, I will definitely let the King of Chu near Wudang Mountain investigate the matter thoroughly. If I find a place by myself, I can't deal with the entire Wudang Mountain by myself, and Suzhou soldiers The horse can't cross Guanzhong Road, and the government can't mobilize people, so we can only ask the King of Chu for help. How do you think the King of Chu will solve this problem? "

Zhongli Jiujiu thought for a while: "He Xini?"

Xu Buling nodded: "Chen Daozi is so confident. He must have the promise of the King of Chu. As long as the King of Chu does not move Wudang Mountain, the foreign troops will not enter, and the Jianghu people will not be able to defeat him. No one can do anything to him."

If Zhongli Jiujiu realized something, he thought for a moment: "Then it must be King Chu who is behind the scenes... But why did King Chu hit you? Even if King Chu doesn't move to Wudang Mountain, if you lie down and pretend to be dead and say that your life is cut off, the Xu family If you want to be eliminated, let the emperor make the decision for you. The emperor will definitely test the pressure on King Chu. You can’t just let it go..."

Xu Buling thought about it carefully: "The King of Chu must have thought about this method, but he still kicked me out. He must have learned some information from elsewhere, and he knew more than me. He felt that it was inconsistent with what he would gain afterwards. In comparison, offending King Su is nothing; in other words, knowing that something big is about to happen will make everyone in the world not care about the small matter of my fight with Chen Daozi..."

Zhongli Jiujiu didn't understand. He frowned and bandaged the wound carefully: "What's the big deal?"

"The power of kings is divinely granted, and the wisdom of the Central Plains is chaotic..."

Xu Buling thought about this sentence carefully, thinking of the floods in the south of the Yangtze River but the inability to provide disaster relief. The King of Chu and the King of Wu moved frequently, and said somewhat strangely:

"Both the King of Wu and the King of Chu want to drive me out, and they have sent so many experts to Bodhi Island. Are they looking for the imperial seal?"

Zhongli Jiujiu naturally knows what the jade seal of the country is. Only by obtaining the jade seal can he become emperor. Otherwise, the unjust emperor will be in the wrong position. She said strangely:

"Your emperor, how can you call him emperor if he has not passed down the imperial seal?"

Xu Buling shook his head: "Emperor Dayue inherited the throne from Da Qi, and Song Ji has the national jade seal in his hand. I saw it twice when I was studying in Chang'an City, and I have always kept it in Song Ji's hand... But if not Jade Seal, what else in the world can make two vassal princes guard so tightly, and still be afraid of being interfered with by me, the lord prince?"

Zhongli Jiujiu thought about it carefully. They were both vassal kings. The difference between him and the emperor was that the dragon embroidered on his clothes only had four toes. Apart from the jade seal passed down from the country, there seemed to be nothing else that could make the two vassal kings go to war. Offended.

"But...but now that the world is at peace, even if they get the jade seal, no one will dare to show it. What's the use of snatching it?"

Xu Buling thought for a moment: "Whether a ruler is qualified or not depends entirely on civil and military skills. In order to defend against the Northern Qi and other vassal kings, the Song Dynasty imposed heavy taxes and raised a large number of soldiers. There were already problems in the internal affairs. If there is another big military chaos , the six Song vassal kings will definitely unite the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty to elect a new king, and whoever holds the jade seal will definitely be the one..."

After saying this, Xu Buling's face became a little serious: "Before the floods in the south of the Yangtze River subside, there will definitely be trouble at the border. My father will guard the western front and it will not affect Song Ji. Only the eastern front under the direct jurisdiction of the imperial court will have a big mess, which will make the Song Dynasty unstoppable." The loss of prestige cannot shake the court and the princes..."

Zhongli Jiujiu's face became a little more serious: "What should we do?"

"what to do……"

Xu Buling blinked and spread his hands: "It's none of my business. Song Ji's knife is on my neck. It's good to change to another emperor. Just watch the show."

"..."

Zhongli Jiujiu nodded, tied the bandage tightly, and asked again:

"Then the beating was in vain?"

"How is that possible? After you go out, write a letter to your father and tell him about these things and be on guard in advance. Then send Lao Xiao out and order the Ancestral Hall in Wudang Mountain. Lao Xiao is best at this..."

"Ah? The Ancestor Hall is an ancestral hall. This... this is similar to digging up ancestral graves. It's too..."

"I didn't jump on his ancestor's grave to be polite. He beat me up for no reason and made me stare. I want to see what he can do to me if I burn down his ancestor's hall. If he has the guts to come to Suzhou Bite me..."

"Ning Yuhe is a disciple of Quanzhen. You ordered her ancestor..."

"It's not me who ordered it. I asked Lao Xiao to burn the incense sticks and accidentally lit the golden peak of Wudang Mountain. Master, you can't blame me. Who made the fire protection facilities of Wudang Mountain fail..."

"..."

Zhongli Jiujiu's eyes were strange, he was silent for a moment, and then suddenly smiled:

"How about I go too? I've already thought about it."

"We have to go to Bodhi Island and then rush back to Suzhou as soon as possible. If something happens at the border, we won't be able to go back. Let's go..."

Xu Buring waved his hand and stood up with support on the stone. His robe was completely torn, his upper body was bare, and his hair was covered in ice.

From the time I left home in the morning until now, I have been either rushing or fighting. It can be said that I am hungry and cold.

Xu Buling took two steps, feeling cold and hungry, and feeling a little drifting. He raised his hand and put it on Zhongli Jiujiu's shoulder.

Zhongli Jiujiu was not allowed to be tall, so he staggered under the weight of the tall Xu Buling. He quickly put his hands around Xu Buling's waist and supported his body.

Xu Buring was exposed to the cold winter wind, and he was completely naked. He could clearly feel the coldness of his skin here, which was hard to the touch.

Zhongli Jiujiu looked at the snow-covered wilderness and couldn't help but feel anxious. He left his horse in Longtan, and he didn't know if anyone would wait for him. It would definitely be difficult to get over it now, so he could only help Xu Buling walk towards the dense forest. With the help of the little sparrow, they find a cave and a grass nest for one night.

It was late at night, the wilderness was desolate, and the mountains and rocks on both sides of the river valley were so steep that there was almost no way to go.

Xu Buling put his arm around Zhongli Jiujiu's thin shoulder, feeling a little warmth coming from his side. He instinctively moved closer, and finally ended up hugging Zhongli Jiujiu with his hands on his waist.

"..."

Zhongli Jiujiu bit her lower lip, raised her eyes and glanced at Xu Buling. When she saw Xu Buling looking intently at the road ahead, she breathed a sigh of relief. After thinking about it, she put the sleeves of her skirt on Xu Buling's head. Put it on your back.

Although it doesn't have much effect, in the cold world, these hints of warmth can't warm people, but at least they can warm the heart...
