The Unparalleled Warrior of the Dream of the Red Chamber

"Father, my son has lost his hand again. The water cooker is really too treacherous. Even the maidservant next to the Lin county master is a first-class expert. The son brought more than 100 people there, and the mountain road was blocked. It's unreasonable to be able to escape." The black-clothed masked man returned to his home in the dark, entered the secret room and said bitterly.

"Cheng'er, be safe and don't get bored. We have missed so many times, and it's nothing to miss once or twice." A black and fat middle-aged man in brown clothes looked at his angry son and said lightly, It seemed that the miss just now was completely in his expectation.

"Father, my son is not reconciled. We have secretly assassinated dozens of times over the years, how could we fail every single time?" The masked man in black tore off his black veil, revealing a handsome face, At first glance, they didn't bear the slightest resemblance to that fat black man. No one could believe that they were father and son.

Fatty Hei pulled his son to him and sat down. If someone looked closely at this moment, they would find that the eyes of the father and son were very similar, and they both had a bit of ruthlessness. "Cheng'er, don't worry, it doesn't matter if you miss this time. Your mother received a secret report from the clan that the world is going to be in chaos. Are you afraid that there will be no chance at that time?"

This black fat man is none other than Zhou Ze, King of Zhongshun County. His father was named Prince of Zhongshun because of his outstanding military exploits. When the son of the Prince of Zhongshun takes over the title, he will be removed from the title and made Duke of Zhongshun.Perhaps it was because Prince Zhongshun's murder hurt Yinde too much, so the heirs of the Zhou family were extremely difficult. Both Zhou Ze and Zhou Sheng were the only seedlings in the thousand hectares of Zhongshun Mansion, so Zhou Ze doted on Zhou Sheng very much, and Zhou Sheng wanted stars. Don't dare to give the moon, any unreasonable demands of him will be satisfied.Zhou Sheng doesn't love beautiful women or money, but only loves power. When he was eight years old, he knew that he could only be the prince of the country in the future, so he was so angry that he smashed the entire Zhongshun Palace. Zhou Ze and the princess coaxed it for a few days before coaxing it Since that day, Zhou Ze, who is eager to love his son, has been planning how to seek the imperial throne. When Zhou Sheng grows up, he insists on taking people to carry out the assassination activities in person. How dare Zhou Ze, the loyal king, refuse to agree? They had no choice but to send the most capable men to protect Zhou Sheng.In the past seven or eight years, Zhou Sheng had been the one who would lead people to assassinate the royal family as soon as he got the news, but he had never succeeded once, and every time he came back he came back with a feather.

"Father, is what you said true?" Zhou Sheng, the son of Prince Zhongshun, asked suspiciously.

"Cheng'er, when did your father lie to you?" Zhou Ze hurriedly patted his chest to reassure, and took out a letter to Zhou Sheng. "Cheng'er, this is a secret letter sent by your grandfather. You can read it yourself."

Zhou Sheng hastily opened the letter and read it carefully, and exclaimed excitedly: "Okay, great, Father, we have hope." Zhou Ze nodded and said: "Sheng'er, we have to find a way to lock the letter in The Jia family in the Zongzheng Temple was rescued, the Jia family has a deep connection with your grandfather, you must get the help of the princes and ministers if you want to sit in that seat, the Jia family's roots are deeper than ours, this is the best time for Shi En."

Zhou Sheng nodded and said, "Father, how should we save?"

Zhou Ze said confidently: "The day after tomorrow is the queen's birthday. As usual, a group of prisoners should be pardoned to pray for the queen. I have contacted several princes and ministers for my father. I will ask the emperor to pardon the Jia family. , but it shouldn’t be a problem if they are released. Sheng’er, after they come out, you should immediately arrange the residence of the Jia family. Mrs. Jia is very capable. As long as you win her heart, what you want to do will be done. half."

Zhou Sheng widened his eyes and said in surprise: "She is just an ordinary old lady, how can she have such great abilities? Father, are you exaggerating?"

Zhou Ze shook his head and smiled and said, "Are the six tribes in the north going to join forces? Your grandfather's letter has vaguely revealed that this is for the Jia family. Cheng'er, think about it, apart from Mrs. Jia, who else in the Jia family has This ability?"

Zhou Sheng frowned and said, "There is such a thing? It seems that Mrs. Jia should not be underestimated. Father, when you ask for mercy, my son will personally pick Mrs. Jia."

Zhou Ze nodded and said, "Okay, the Jia family has a large population, so you can take them to Zhengjiazhuang in Nancheng. As for Mrs. Jia, you should find a way to take them to our palace."

Zhou Sheng nodded, he understood what his father meant very well.Zhou Ze comforted his son again, and the father and son discussed for a long time, and they went back to their rooms to rest until it was almost dawn.

The next day, at dawn, the water was brewed and the water was dissolved, and Daiyu bid farewell to the Taoist priest Sanqing, and went back to the capital with the little golden wolf.As soon as he came out of the mountain, he encountered the imperial guards sent by the palace, and the leader was Feng Ziying who was recuperating in the East Palace.Feng Ziying took the lead. He saw Shui Chi jumped down and knelt on one knee and said, "Your Highness, the escort came late, which surprised His Royal Highness, Shizi and County Lord Lin."

Shui Chi hurriedly called Feng Ziying up and asked, "Ziying, did the emperor send you out?"

Feng Ziying hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness did not return at the scheduled time, nor did he send a message. The Emperor was very worried, and saw a warning signal in the direction of Qingtai Mountain. Long live, he ordered his ministers and five thousand guards to rush to help. Your Highness, what happened last night? Was there an assassination? Was anyone hurt?"

Shui Chi shook his head and said, "Although assassins attacked yesterday when we left the mountain, luckily no one was injured."

Feng Ziying breathed a sigh of relief: "It's a blessing, Your Highness, you must not take it lightly when you go out in the future. You have been assassinated many times, but you still can't find out who the assassin is. You can't take it lightly."

Shui Chi smiled and said: "Okay, Ziying, this is not the first time, I know it well. Hurry up and go back to the palace, father and queen must be very worried."

Feng Ziying ordered the [-] forbidden army to change from the rear army to the front army, and hurried back to the capital with Shui Chi and others.The emperor and queen in the palace have been unable to sleep peacefully since last night, and finally waited for the news that Daiyu was safe, and the queen leaned on the emperor's body as soon as her feet softened, and said in a low voice: "Amitabha, these three children finally came back safely. .”

The emperor helped the queen to sit down, and said softly: "Xin'er, don't worry about the children, everything will be fine. You take a rest for a while, and we have to ask the children carefully when they come back later. This time Yu'er also If you are assassinated, you still have to comfort the child, speaking of it, it was our Qier Ronger who made Yuer implicated, and when we meet Ruhai and Miner underground, we really have no face to deal with."

The queen nodded and said: "Brother Tian, ​​what you said is very true. I will comfort Yu'er well. If we intend to make Yu'er a daughter-in-law, then Yu'er will have to face more such things in the future. We should first It's good to be clear." The emperor frowned and nodded silently.

As soon as he entered the capital, Shui Chi rode his horse to Daiyu's car and said in a low voice: "Yu'er, the queen father and queen must be very worried, you'd better go to the palace with us to see the father and queen before going home. "

Daiyu hesitated for a moment, and said to Lan Xin and Zhu Ying beside her: "Lan Xin, you and Zhu Ying go home first to report to your uncle and aunt that you are safe, please rest assured. I will go home after seeing the emperor and queen."

Shui Chi and the others went directly to Kunning Palace, and the queen came out to meet her from a distance, and before Daiyu bowed down, she hugged Daiyu into her arms, screaming heartily, and said eagerly: "Yu'er, I Poor child, you must be frightened, it is our fault, our inconsideration, that made you suffer such grievances."

Daiyu hurriedly said: "Auntie, don't worry, Yu'er hasn't scratched even a trace of oily skin, please don't say that."

The queen pushed Daiyu away a little, looked up and down carefully, and saw that Daiyu was not injured at all, but her eyes were slightly blue, which was due to lack of sleep last night.The queen put Daiyu in her arms again and said softly: "My good boy, go with Auntie to Qifeng Pavilion, Auntie has something to tell you."

Shui Chi Shui Rong watched the queen pull Daiyu away without even asking himself a question. The two looked at each other, and Shui Chi smiled and said, "It seems that it is not the two of us who are the empress's heart. gone."

Shui Rong felt the same way, and said with a smile, "That's good, we're freer without my aunt staring at us."

"You two brats have a good idea, so why don't you let me get out of here." The current emperor's hearing power was not given in vain, he stood in the Qianyuan Hall and yelled loudly.

The water boiled and the water melted quickly walked in, the two of them lifted their robes and knelt down to salute, the emperor pulled them up one by one, looked left and right, saw that both of them were intact, the emperor let out a long breath and said: "Fortunately You two are all right, Chi'er, is anyone else injured?"

Shui Chi shook his head and said, "Go back to Emperor Father, no one was injured."

The emperor wondered how this is possible, Yu'er has no power to restrain her, you have to protect her, how could no one get hurt? "Shui Rong hurriedly said: "All of us are safe and sound, it's all due to Yu'er's ingenious arrangement. She knew that her lack of martial arts would drag us down, so she ordered her four maids to protect her cousin from rushing out of the mountain pass, and arranged for me to go backwards. Breaking through and going back to Qingtai Temple, she squeezed herself into the crevices of Qingtai Mountain's stone wall and hid. As a result, none of us were injured. "

The emperor nodded approvingly and said with a smile: "After all, it is Yu'er, whose intelligence is far superior to ordinary people."

Shui Chi presented a black mask and a wooden plaque in front of the emperor, and said in a low voice: "Father, this is what I got from the assassin last night. I looked carefully, but I couldn't see anything Clues, please judge the emperor."

The emperor took the wooden sign and looked at it carefully, and said in a deep voice: "This wooden sign looks very ordinary, with only the serial number written on it with cinnabar, such a wooden sign can be made by any woodwork workshop, it is really not easy to check .”

Shui Rong looked at it for a while and said: "This wooden sign looks very new, as if it was just made."

The emperor glanced at Shui Rong and said with a smile: "It is indeed very new, Rong'er, do you know how many carpentry workshops there are in the capital and how many carpentry workshops there are in the whole country, and it is not uncommon for any mansion to raise a few craftsmen. There are almost no clues, Rong'er, where do you want to find out?" Shui Rong was taken aback, and said with a dry smile: "This...my nephew hasn't figured it out yet."

The emperor looked at Shui Chi and asked, "Qi'er, what do you think?"

Shui Chi frowned and kept thinking, when suddenly a thought popped into his mind, Shui Chi couldn't help saying: "Yes, they purposely used the most common wood to make a sign, just to hide their true identities."

The emperor nodded and said: "Well, what Chi'er said is, Rong'er, you should think about it too."

Shui Rong thought for a while and said hesitantly: "Although this wood is ordinary, the cinnabar is not ordinary. It is faintly golden when viewed against the light. My nephew wants to start looking for this cinnabar, which should be a clue."

The emperor nodded and smiled and said: "Very good, Chi'er has the Jia family's case in his hand, and if he can't get out, Rong'er, I will let you investigate the assassin's case. I will give you a secret decree to allow you to do things cheaply, and I will not give you a time limit." , I only ask you to dig out the mastermind behind the assassin, one counts as one, and not one slips through the net."

Shui Rong immediately knelt down and said, "Yes, my nephew complies."

The emperor said in a deep voice: "You two come with me to the imperial study, you can only read some files there."

The two cousins ​​followed the emperor to the imperial study, and when Daiyu came in from behind with the queen, the Qianyuan Hall was already empty.The queen patted Daiyu's hand and said with a smile: "Yu'er, it seems that the two brothers have gone on business. Wait for them to come back before taking you home."

Daiyu smiled lightly and said, "Auntie, you don't have to wait for Brother Chi and Senior Brother Rong, you can just send a few guards to take Yu'er home." As soon as Daiyu finished speaking, she heard a crisp voice call: "Mother, Qing'er take Sister Yu'er home, okay?" Empress Daiyu looked up and saw Shui Qing running in from outside, holding Daiyu's hand and calling affectionately: "Sister Yu'er, I haven't seen you for a few days. I saw you, do you miss Qing'er?"

The queen nodded Qing'er's head and said: "You are not as tall as Yu'er, how can you send her off?"

Qing'er weighed her feet unhappily and said: "Mother, I have grown a lot taller, so let me take Sister Yu'er home. I don't know what happened to my father, so I sent four civil and military masters to my son at once. Qing'er spends all day in the palace except studying and practicing martial arts every day, there is no freedom for a moment, good mother, I beg you to let Qing'er send sister Yu'er home, so that my son can relax." Looking at Shui Qingku The empress couldn't help laughing out loud, she didn't know that it was the two older ones who muttered in front of the emperor for a long time, which made Shui Qing live a miserable life.To be honest, Shui Qing should follow the rules, so the queen did not object, now seeing Shui Qing's pitiful appearance, the queen couldn't help but soften her heart, and said with a smile: "Qing'er, you want to go to Sister Yu'er's house to play for a while. It's not impossible to play, but..."

As soon as Shui Qing heard that there was a door, he quickly shook the Queen's hand and said, "Queen Mother, please promise, Qing'er promises to be very obedient and obedient." Looking at Shui Qing's eyes with water vapor, the Queen knelt down and caressed her. Shui Qing's face said: "Qing'er, the queen mother promised you that I will give you a day off, but you have to go back to the palace for dinner in the evening. Also, you are not allowed to put on airs like a prince in sister Yu'er's house, and you must listen to sister Yu'er in everything." Otherwise, mother will not allow you to leave the palace again."

Shui Qing was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately knelt down and said: "I am very grateful to the queen mother for your kindness. After leaving the palace, I will listen to elder sister Yu'er in everything, and I will never be naughty."

The queen took Daiyu's hand and said with a smile: "Yu'er, Qing'er is also very restrained these days, let him go with you to relax, you just take care of him, treat him as your younger brother, if he is disobedient, You just come and tell me."

Daiyu really liked Shuiqing in her heart, so she held Shuiqing's hand and said with a smile: "The sixth prince came to the humble house, and the Lin family is full of glory." Shuiqing grabbed Daiyu's hand and said, "Sister Yuer, Qinger will definitely listen to you .”

The queen saw that Shuiqing was very convinced of Daiyu, so she smiled and said: "It's fine if Qing'er is obedient, Yu'er, your uncle and aunt must miss you very much, and your aunt is worthy of keeping you today, so go back quickly, Qing'er, You must listen to Sister Yu'er's words, and don't make any noise."

The queen sent ten golden phoenix guards to escort Daiyu back to the Lin Mansion, and the journey was safe and sound. Although Shuiqing sat in the car and wanted to watch the excitement outside, but seeing Daiyu just sitting quietly, Shuiqing could only sit obediently on Daiyu. Beside Yu, she lowered her head and pouted.Daiyu knew that Shuiqing had never been out of the palace, so she definitely wanted to watch the excitement, but she had just been assassinated, so she couldn't drag Shuiqing to take this risk, so she could only pretend not to see it.But looking at Shuiqing's pitiful little girl, Daiyu couldn't bear it, so she just put her arms around Shuiqing's shoulders and said, "Qing'er, I can't let you go shopping, but when you get to the Lin Mansion, my sister will ask my uncle to arrange it. Quietly go to the teahouse for tea and snacks, okay?"

Shui Qing then smiled and shouted happily: "Sister Yu'er, is this true? That's great!"

After arriving at the Lin Mansion, Daiyu and Shuiqing got out of the car, and they were rushed forward by Huiyun Wangmao and hugged tightly. Wangmao inspected Daiyu carefully and saw that she was indeed not injured. Feeling relieved, she just put her arms around Daiyu and cried: "My good lady, how could you encounter this kind of thing? It really scared the mother to death. It's all the old slave's fault. I didn't take good care of the lady. The old lady I'm sorry, Mrs. Madam!"

Daiyu hurriedly helped Wang Momo and said: "Mommy, how can I blame you, Yu'er is fine, don't worry." Huiyun saw that Daiyu was really fine, except for the slight hair In addition to Qing, his face was still very ruddy, so he said in relief: "Buddha bless, it's fine as long as it's fine."

Lin Yi saw Shui Qing who was wearing a yellow jacquard soft satin leather robe at the side, and knew that this person must be the son of a phoenix, and then saw a suet white jade pendant hanging around Shui Qing's waist, engraved with the words "Lu The word ", Lin Yi immediately understood, this is the sixth prince of the current emperor, His Royal Highness King Lu.Then he went forward to salute and said: "Cao Min pays homage to King Lu Qiansui."

Upon hearing Lin Yi's words, Grandma Huiyun Wang also knelt down in front of Shui Qing, and Shui Qing hurriedly helped her up: "Uncle Lin, Aunt Lin, and such an old nanny, please get up, Xiao Wang came here uninvited, just to disturb you." Uncle Lin."

Lin Yi hurriedly bowed and smiled and said that the visit of King Lu made the humble house full of brilliance, but the humble house was shabby, and it was wrong for the prince to be thousand years old. Shui Qing looked at Daiyu and said softly, "Sister Yu'er, can you stop talking like this?"The queen mother said that when Shui Qing came with Sister Yu'er, she had to treat herself as an ordinary child, and she didn't need to put on airs like a prince. "

Daiyu held Shui Qing's hand and said with a smile: "Uncle, aunt, aunt, Qing'er is not an outsider, so don't be so restrained."

Lin Yihuiyun knew that Daiyu had a sense of propriety, and she could treat Shuiqing as one of her own if she could say that, so she smiled affectionately: "Prince Six, although we don't have children to play with you at home, there are fun things at home Quite a few, so you won't be bored."

Daiyu saw that her uncle, aunt and Wang Momo were somewhat restrained, so she smiled and said, "Qing'er, my sister picked up a little golden wolf from Mount Qingtai, do you want to go and see it?"

Shui Qing smiled happily: "Of course I want to see it!" Daiyu smiled to Lin Yihuiyun and Wang Momo: "Uncle, Aunt, Aunty, I don't want to play with my brother for a while. Let's talk about it later. "

Lin Yi nodded and smiled, "Okay, Yu'er, stay with the sixth prince first."

Shui Qing entered Daiyu's yard and immediately felt a burst of warmth. He asked in surprise, "Sister Yu'er, why is your yard so warm?"

Daiyu smiled lightly and said, "I've always been afraid of the cold, so my uncle caged a fire dragon in the courtyard."

Shuiqing let out a cry, and saw the little golden wolf lazily lying in the middle of the yard. Children like small animals the most. Shuiqing cheered and ran forward, but the little golden wolf rushed in front of Daiyu all of a sudden, Suddenly jumped into Daiyu's hand, staring at Daiyu's eyes with a pair of dark green eyes, whimpering in grievance, as if complaining that Daiyu had sidestepped herself.Daiyu couldn't help laughing and said, "What a clingy little guy."

Shui Qing ran back and shouted: "Sister Yu'er, this is the little golden wolf, what's its name?"

Daiyu couldn't help laughing after hearing this, "I just picked it up in the middle of the night yesterday, and I haven't had time to name it yet."

After hearing what Daiyu said, the little golden wolf raised his head and looked at Daiyu accusingly, his pair of elf-like green eyes seemed to be able to speak.Shui Qing looked at the little golden wolf and said enviously, "Sister Yu'er, can I pet it?"

Daiyu laughed and said, "Little Golden Wolf, let Qing'er touch you, don't be naughty."

The little golden wolf snorted, lay down reluctantly, and covered his eyes with his two tender little front paws. Seeing its humane performance, Daiyu and Shuiqing almost laughed. up.Shui Qing lightly stroked the soft fur of the little golden wolf, and sighed contentedly: "It's so smooth! Sister Yu'er, the little golden wolf's fur is really nice!"

Letting Shui Qing touch it seemed to be the limit of the little golden wolf. It suddenly stood up and shook its fur, then hid in Daiyu's arms.But in the blink of an eye, Daiyu and Shuiqing heard soft snoring.

Shui Qing exclaimed in surprise: "Ah, sister Yu'er, the little golden wolf fell asleep like this?"

Daiyu didn't know the little golden wolf's habits, so she could only say, "Maybe it's still too young, so it needs to sleep more."

As soon as Daiyu finished speaking, the little golden wolf suddenly flew out like an arrow off the string, pounced down from a high altitude, and bit a five-step snake with a finger that was more than two feet thick and had a long triangular head that spit out a letter.
