As the commander of Zhechong, the commander of the Northern Liang army, Qi was in trouble for a while. Although he was one of the six adopted sons of Xu Xiao, who had a strong military power, he was the "wolf dog" among the "one tiger, two bears and three dogs". , but the relationship with His Royal Highness the prince has not been harmonious in these years.
Speaking from the bottom of my heart, Qi Dangguo, who came from a poor and lowly army, is not very fond of His Highness's popular behavior in the prefectures, but loyalty is the first. Since Xu Fengnian is the eldest son of his adoptive father, he wants Qi Dangguo to kidnap his daughter by himself. Commander Zhechong didn't even frown. How to send Xu Fengnian back to the palace has become a problem now, can't just throw the noble prince on the horse's back?
Fortunately, a cavalry that rushed over solved the predicament of Qi Dangguo.
The horses are full-bodied and unusually tall. They were once the king of wild horses. After they were tamed, they were handed over to the young prince Xu Longxiang. As soon as they saw the horses, they were wild and hard to tame. , was knocked to the ground with a punch by the young man, and since then he has been as obedient and docile as a small family jasper.
The little prince Xu Longxiang, who came over after hearing the news, quickly stopped his horse, jumped off, and called his brother a few times. Seeing that there was no movement, he naively thought that his brother was dead. His Royal Highness was just overworked, but he was pushed away by the little prince, staggered a few times, and almost fell. Qi Dangguo was a fierce general of the Beiliang Army who carried the flag for Dazhuguo, which shows the extraordinary strength of the young man.
The old servant, who was called "Old Huang" by Xu Fengnian, trotted a few steps and said a few words softly in a strong Xishu accent. Then Xu Longxiang burst into laughter and slapped the old servant on the shoulder, directly slapping the old man. Sitting in the dust.
The little prince didn't attack outsiders lightly or seriously, but he could be replaced by his elder brother Xu Fengnian, but he was very careful, crouched on the ground, carried his sleeping elder brother on his back, and walked slowly to the city gate, the mount nicknamed "Black Teeth" followed him--Chun In general, stepping on small steps, turning his head sideways and trying to rub against the red horse that was held by the old servant and whose physique was not inferior to it, but the skinny and limping red horse did not appreciate it, and bit his mouth when he opened his mouth. Black Fang hurriedly ran away, but was reluctant to run away, looking reluctant.
At first in Lingzhou City, it was not clear who would let the young prince Xu Longxiang carry his back into the city, and there were two hundred royal guards riding like wolves and tigers behind him. Zhou Ke drove the three carriages side by side on the main road, especially the beautifully dressed ladies and daughters, who did not care about their elegant demeanor, screamed and fled with their skirts, and some of them were placed in the town. The big shops that house babies come to attract customers hide their things in the first time.
The news of "His Royal Highness is back" spread around the entire Lingzhou City at an astonishing speed like thunder. The spirits of more than 20 brothels in the city were lifted, and the old bustards and tortoises all cried with joy. The enchanting courtesans all sat at the window with their hearts in their arms and looked through Qiushui Road, "My enemy, I'm finally willing to come back, I miss the slave's house."
One person followed the two hundred Liangzhou iron riders into the city from a distance. He was slender, dressed in a white robe, with picturesque dark eyebrows, red phoenix eyes and peach blossom eyes. He was long and narrow and charming, his skin was as white as jade, and his face was a standard beauty with melon seeds. vulgarian.
If it weren't for the fact that there were two knives on the left side of his waist, his background was unknown, his expression was arrogant and arrogant, and he was intimidated by the terrifying statement that His Highness the Prince had returned to the city, some ruffians and dudes who were wandering the streets would have gone up to tease him.
This girl is too beautiful, more handsome than all the courtesans in the city combined. When some beautiful women and young ladies from rich families who were running in panic saw her, they were jealous at first, then admired, and shyly thought that if this girl was a son, she would be willing to run away.
The white-robed beauty with a knife on her waist was slightly surprised, hesitated for a while, and chose an old man who was a fortune teller, and asked, "Old gentleman, who is the eldest son of the family who is guarded by the Beiliang iron cavalry into the city?"
He was lamenting that the old man who was unable to do business in the future was horrified by the beauty of the girl in front of him. After all, after years of age, he finally calmed down and said with a wry smile:
"Girl, are you a foreigner? There is only one prince in our place, the eldest son of King Beiliang. How dare a son of an ordinary rich and powerful family dare to call himself a prince, but he will beat him to the point where his nose is blue and his face is swollen. The princes and grandchildren of the neighboring states, who are a little unpleasant to the eye, will be beaten by our royal highness to lose their temper."
Hearing the name "girl" in the old man's mouth, the woman's extremely beautiful eyebrows subconsciously wrinkled, but she did not refute anything. She looked at the slowly advancing iron cavalry team ahead, her peach blossom eyes narrowed, and there was a vague murderous intent, and she muttered to herself. road:
"I never thought that he is really a young master. Xu Beggar, could it be that this is what you often say about nine falsehoods and one really easy to kidnap? Xu Xiao, the king of Beiliang, who claims to have broken through the city and killed 300,000 people, how could there be such a person who doesn't arrogant son?"
The palace of the Northern Liang Dynasty.
The Prince's Courtyard is even more extravagant than that of Prince Xu Xiao. The decorations on the large red sandalwood carved Chi case by the window can be seen in addition to the four-foot-high Tibetan blue bronze tripod.
There are also several cases in rosewood and marble, with four treasures of the study, cups and wine utensils. There are piles of famous Buddhist texts. There are more than ten squares of inkstones alone, all of which are invaluable. The pens in the pen are as dense as forests.
In the corner of several cases, there is a huge Geyao flower bag, a crystal ball full of white chrysanthemums, and a pair of gold unicorn auspicious beasts, Pixiu, that are easily played with.
There are several earth dragons that consume countless charcoal in the palace, so in the early winter, the room is still as warm as late spring, even if you step on the blanket with bare feet, it doesn't matter.
At this time, the prince, Xu Fengnian, was sleeping soundly on the big bed, covered with a large mattress of an autumn-scented money python, with a haggard face. Beside the bed sat the big pillar country Xu Xiao and the young prince Xu Longxiang, except for the only outsider, Zhao Tianshi from Longhu Mountain. , and the old servant surnamed Huang sat at the door with a long suitcase, and there was no one else.
At the head of the bed is a bronze Xuande stove sprinkled with golden spots and burns with ambergris.
"Tianshi, my son is okay?" Xu Xiao didn't know how many times he took the trouble to ask the same question. Where is this still that Xu Zhuguo who fought decisively on the battlefield? It was clearly just a father who spoiled his son to the point of absurdity.
"No problem, no problem, His Royal Highness has just been tired for a long time, sleeps for half a day, and then recuperates for half a month, and he will be alive and well."
The old Taoist had a clear mind, and he felt a pain in the flesh. When the prince saw that his son was so thin, he immediately asked the housekeeper to take out the top-grade elixir from several furnaces in Wudang Mountain and the tribute medicines treasured by the house. mouth.
Seeing Zhao Tianshi's heart skipping a beat, he said that for a long time it is medicine and half poison, and he had the selfishness to fight against Wudang Mountain and personally took out the little golden elixir of Longhu Mountain to use it over his own.
The prince Xu Fengnian slept for two days and two nights before he woke up, while his younger brother Xu Longxiang stayed for two days and two nights without eating or drinking.
When the servants went to announce the good news to Dazhuguo, he hurriedly came to visit in three steps, but when he saw his son directly holding the Xuande stove at the head of the bed, he smashed it, jumped out of bed and yelled:
"Xu Xiao, you've been beaten by thousands of knives. You drove Lao Tzu out of the palace for three years. No wonder you often say that Lao Tzu is not your own."
Xu Xiao tilted his head, dodged the stove, and apologized with a calm face.
But Xu Fengnian was willing to let go of the culprit who made him sleep in the wild for three years. After smashing everything that could be smashed in the room, he chased all the way to the outside of the room. When he saw a splendid broom lying on the corner of the porch, he picked it up and chased after him.
Poor Dazhuguo took a few hits, but he still reminded him, "Put on your shoes, don't freeze when it's cold." One chased one in the yard, and the other fled. It was so lively that a few of them walked out of the palace, the governor of the county. The most popular direct line housekeepers all put their hands in their sleeves in tacit understanding, looked up at the sky, heard nothing and saw nothing.
Xu Fengnian was exhausted. After chasing and beating for a while, he was out of breath. He bent down and stared at his father fiercely. Xu Xiao stood far away and smiled cautiously: "When the anger is gone? Eat first when the anger is gone. Only when you have the strength can you let it out."
Sitting on the threshold of the door, the young prince Xu Longxiang and his servant Lao Huang, they both grinned, one was drooling, the other was missing front teeth, they were both quite stupid.
His Royal Highness was panting like an ox, and pointed at Xu Xiao, the king of Beiliang, who was high in the eyes of outsiders, "Donkey and grass, I'll let you go today, you wait for Laozi."
Xu Xiao wasn't angry either, he said cheerfully, "Okay, alright, just wait, I'm sure you won't fight back and scold you, so that you can let out a bad breath."
Xu Fengnian, who was still barefoot, threw away the broom that could sell for dozens of taels of silver and came to the door. Seeing his smirking brother, his eyes softened a bit. Seeing his saliva flowing down his chest, Xu Fengnian didn't think it was dirty, it was natural. He stretched out his hand to help wipe it, and said softly: "Silly Huangman, come, stand up and show your brother how tall and strong you are."
The young man stood up solemnly, Xu Fengnian gestured, and smiled slightly disappointedly, "Not tall or strong."
The young man wrapped his arms around his waist and picked up his brother. Xu Fengnian was not surprised, but a lot of saliva was smeared on his chest.
Shangzhu Kingdom stood on the spot. Tu, who had been murdering people in the military for half his life, had some wet eyes. He quietly turned his head and muttered to himself, "This wind is strong, where's the sand?"
The two brothers returned to the room together. Xu Xiao immediately ordered someone to bring the meal that had been carefully prepared for a long time. There were 20 or 30 servants in the food box alone, and they entered the room one after another. Shan Lao Dao's kind reminder is mostly vegetarian, less heavy and spicy.
After three days of eating, drinking and sleeping, Xu Fengnian came to the most famous Tingchao Pavilion in the mansion. He carried a purple bamboo fishing rod, and asked his younger brother Xu Longxiang to carry a few embroidery piers, and then asked the servants to prepare a big one. There is a long coffee table, as well as a lot of exotic fruits and delicacies, and the butler specially asked the butler to choose four or five beautiful maids who are in the prime of their cardamom years to rub their shoulders and knock their backs to serve them.
Listening to the tide pavilion, just by looking at the name, you can hear a bit of its meaning. Beiliang Wangfu sits on the entire Qingliang Mountain. It has doubled the size of the mountainside where there was a lake. The intention is to expand the lake into the sea and build pavilions and pavilions. The majestic pavilion on the ninth floor, which is towering in the middle, is named Tingchao. The hobby of the prince Xu Fengnian is fishing on the first floor. There are thousands of books in the building, and there are countless rare and unique books. There are many martial arts secrets that have been lost.
Fifteen years ago, Xu Xiao, who had not yet been named King of Northern Liang, personally led an iron cavalry and led the imperial decree, the monk Fang Baojian, to crush dozens of martial arts sects in the north and south of the dynasty. The Forbidden Villa was immediately destroyed by ashes.
You must know that twenty years ago, the Forbidden Mountain Villa was a first-class martial arts holy land on the rivers and lakes. In the past 100 years, there have been four top ten masters in each session. In the end, the secret code of the arsenal of the villa, except for the symbolism, was handed over to the big family. Several sets, and the rest, were confiscated to the sixth floor of Tingchao Pavilion.
Fortunately, Xu Fengnian didn't look like his father Xu Xiao at all. After leaving the jurisdiction, he would not dare to call himself the prince of Beiliang. Otherwise, this alone would be enough to make him doomed forever. The enemies of the Dazhu Kingdom are like his disciples all over the world. .
There are thousands of koi tails in the lake, and the bait is basked in the sun. That is the wonder of the thousands of carps in the sky. Even the emperor who escaped the summer in the past few years was amazed, and he sighed at the moment.
Xu Fengnian lay on the wooden couch covered with gorgeous Shu brocade and fished for a while. Seeing that his younger brother was drooling again, he reached out and wiped it away.
I couldn't help but think of the white fox face who was tricked into the cool ground by myself. She was a beauty who pursed her lips like a crescent moon when she laughed. Xu Fengnian always called her the number one beauty in the world in private. He picked up like a pig's head, so he settled for the next best thing, and changed one word, beauty becomes beauty.
When Xu Fengnian thought of this person, he was in a good mood, rubbed his brother's head, and smiled: "Brother said that he would help you trick a most beautiful beauty into being your daughter-in-law, but he really abducted him back, she's a white fox. The face is extremely beautiful and beautiful, and he wears two swords, a 'Xiu Dong' and a 'Spring Thunder', all of which are famous swords in the world. It's a pity, it's a man."
