[Comprehensive Martial Arts] Ding Nvxia, the wife of the Zuo envoy

[-]. Courtship

On September [-]th, Mingjiao conquered Dadu, established a new dynasty, and took the name of the country as "Ming". Yang Xiao, who was the leader of Mingjiao at the time, rejected the Ninth Five-Year position on the grounds of "getting older and lacking energy". His eldest son, Yang Qingyan, ascended the throne as the emperor. Gu Xichao, Shen Lang, Xu Da, Chang Yuchun and other founding heroes were bestowed the title of duke and held important positions in the court. Zhang Wuji, who has made great contributions, declined the imperial court's reward because he was determined to inherit the position of Wudang master and unify the martial arts.

……

In a blink of an eye, the end of the year is approaching. After several months of busy work, the Ming Dynasty finally passed the most difficult period in the early stage. All departments are operating in an orderly manner, and all affairs are gradually on the right track.

In recent years, people have fought in the south and the north, and their lives are not stable. It is rare that the world is initially settled, and it is the first new year after the establishment of the new dynasty. The meaning is very different. Yang Qingyan announced the seal of the pen and seal ten days before New Year's Eve, and will seal it again after the next year.

Today is different from the past, Yang Qingyan is now the Ninth Five-Year Lord, in order to communicate with the ministers on New Year's Eve, he needs to hold a grand banquet in the palace, leaving him with little time to reunite with his family, so after the seal, he and Gu Xichao and Shen Lang rushed back to Guangmingding together without stopping.

Out of various considerations, Yang Xiao and Ding Minjun did not stay in the palace after helping him stabilize the situation, but returned to the main altar of Kunlun Mountain.

Yang Qingyan was very clear about the reason why his father insisted on retreating to Guangmingding. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that his father was still in the prime of life, not as he himself said, "lack of energy and unable to take the position of emperor". His excuse.

It's just that once the emperor and the courtiers, even though their relationship between father and son is still the same as in the past, but people's hearts are unpredictable, and it is impossible to guarantee that some people in the court will have other ideas, so the father simply cut off the bottom line, stayed away from the government, and directly cut off all possibilities.

These are all to allow him to sit firmly in this position.

Recalling what his father told him before he left, the situation in the Western Regions is unclear now, and a large number of Mongolian remnants have fled there. For the rest of his life, his father will guard that pass for him, and no one will let anyone set foot there .

Thinking of this, Yang Qingyan couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips, looking at the high mountains shrouded in clouds and mist in the distance, the feeling of returning home was even stronger in his heart, he couldn't help but squeeze the horse's belly hard, urging the horse to speed up.

……

On this side, Yang Qingyan and others are rushing over, but the atmosphere on the top of the Guangming Peak is a bit tense, because on this auspicious day of family reunion, there is an unexpected visitor in Yang Xiao's eyes who came to visit.

Yang Xiao stood at the head with a blank face, watching the box tied with a red ribbon being carried in from outside the hall like flowing water, and asked in a cold voice, "What is the meaning of Master Yu?"

"Master Yang." Ximen Wujue, who was dressed in a black fine attire, stood at the bottom of his head, arched his hands towards him, and said with a smile: "This time, as the former owner of Wanmei Villa, I am here to present my son Ximen before blowing snow. Come to court your love."

Yang Xiao looked at him sharply, without saying a word.

Ximen Wujue continued to speak earnestly: "The children are happy with each other. As parents, we naturally want to fulfill them, don't we?"

"Oh?" Yang Xiao sneered, and said, "I don't know when the owner Ximen of Wanmei Villa has a father who is the leader of the Western Rakshasa Sect, and he can come to propose marriage for him?" Here, he paused, and deliberately asked: "Does he know?"

Ximen Wujue's expression froze slightly when he heard the words, and the smile on his face faded a bit: "Her Majesty Yang's words are wrong. I don't know, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't exist. The following is his father. This is an undoubted fact. Qualified to propose marriage for him."

Yang Xiao walked down the stone steps step by step, approaching him slowly, and his words became more merciless: "Since Master Yu has this qualification, why didn't you bring your good son to come here in person? Or—— "

Before he finished speaking, Yu Luocha also lowered his expression, and said in a deep voice: "Master Yang, you must forgive others and forgive others..."

Yang Xiao sneered again: "Heh." Then he lowered his eyes and slowly rolled up his sleeves.

Simon didn't have the determination to understand, so he also rolled up his sleeves.

Ding Minjun watched the whole process, swallowed the orange in his mouth, coughed lightly and said to them lightly: "Go out and fight, don't damage the place I have worked so hard to arrange."

The two looked at each other when they heard the words, and then looked at the decorations in the hall full of New Year's flavor, and flew out at the same time without saying a word.

……

Yang Qingyan, Gu Xichao, and Shen Lang hadn't reached the top of the mountain when they saw flying sand and rocks flying in the square in front of the main hall from a distance. There was a constant rumbling sound, as if someone was vigorously demolishing the place.

The expressions of the three brothers changed immediately, and they looked at each other in surprise, thinking that something had happened on the top of the light, they hurriedly abandoned their mounts, and rushed up as fast as they could with their light skills. It turned out to be Yang Xiao and another strange man.

In the middle of the square, two figures, one black and one white, are fighting in the dark. They have the same profound internal strength, the same high martial arts, and the same treacherous ways. For a while, no one can do anything to the other, but the square is full of exotic styles. The floor tiles and pillars have suffered, and they have long been broken and broken.

The three brothers did not dare to easily intervene in the fight between the two. Seeing Ding Minjun standing on the steps not far away, eating melon seeds leisurely, they hurriedly ran around in a circle to avoid the storm in the center.

After seeing the situation clearly, they were no longer anxious, but were extremely puzzled. Yang Qingyan, the fastest runner, stood still beside Mother, and asked aloud, "Mother, what's going on?"

Ding Minjun didn't answer first, but looked at the dusty three people and said in surprise: "Are you back?" Then he asked warmly for a while, and then said lightly: "Oh, it's nothing, Ximen Chuixue's father came to give his son I proposed marriage to your sister, but your father didn't like it, so the two started fighting... It's not a big problem, they will stop when they get tired, just wait and see."

Hearing that the other person in black was Ximen Chuuxue's father, Yang Qingyan and Shen Lang, who knew a little about the entanglements between the elders, twitched their mouths, thinking that they probably knew that their father/adopted father would fight with each other the reason.

Not necessarily... it's because he is dissatisfied with Ximen Chuuxue being his son-in-law... maybe...

The two glanced at Ding Minjun, who was unconscious, with a somewhat indescribable look on his face.

Gu Xichao, who knew nothing about this, keenly noticed the strangeness of the two senior brothers, raised his handsome eyebrows slightly, and asked them with his mouth: "What's going on?"

Yang Qingyan's eyes flickered, but he avoided answering.Shen Lang couldn't hide, and pouted at his adoptive mother without a trace, feeling ashamed of saying right and wrong about his elders.

Gu Xichao immediately understood the meaning and wisely kept silent.

How should I put it, master and mother were once young...

……

Yang Xiao and Ximen Wujue fought for two full hours, until the sunset, when Ding Minjun called them to eat, they stopped at the same time, jumped back, put their hands behind their backs, one left and one right, panting slightly.

After a while of eye contact, the two of them reached some consensus, and they were able to sit at the same table to eat peacefully.

Ding Minjun raised his eyebrows lightly, and without asking any further questions, he used serving chopsticks to pick up food for the two of them.

……

Half a year later, Yang Qingshao married Wanmei Shanzhuang as the eldest princess. On the day of marriage, the new emperor and the princes personally sent the marriage ceremony, with red makeup for thousands of miles, which caused a sensation in the whole world.

[-]. Gu Xichao

After Yang Qingshao got married, Ding Minjun seemed to have finally remembered that apart from Shen Lang, who had made a marriage contract early, among the three brothers, there were two other who had not moved since then, so he became worried about the lifelong affairs of Yang Qingyan and Gu Xichao, especially now that there are 27 Eight's Gu Xichao urged him even more frequently.Gu Xichao was miserable, and when he heard that there were remnants of the Mongolian army on the border, he immediately took the imperial decree under the pretext of investigating the remnants of the previous dynasty and fled to the desert.

The desert was full of yellow sand, Gu Xichao led more than [-] subordinates from the Shenji Battalion, disguised as a passing caravan, and drove for several days against the wind and sand, and finally saw a small shop where people could rest.The storefront is dilapidated and old, the name is quite good, it is called "Qingting Restaurant", but unfortunately the restaurant is too small to accommodate so many people, so he simply didn't go in, but set up a tent on the spot and asked people to ask The store bought some food and drink.

After a while, the subordinates who entered the restaurant led someone to come over with the food and drink. Gu Xichao looked up and couldn't help being slightly taken aback. The man who came over with the food and drink had a dignified appearance, breathed deeply and slowly, and walked steadily and lightly. There is also a long sword pinned to his waist, so it is absolutely impossible for him to be a servant of a dilapidated wine shop.

He paused, got up and asked, "I don't know your honorable name?"

The person who came didn't try to hide it, put down the food and drink and cupped his hands openly and said: "I'm Qi Shaoshang."

"Qi Shaoshang, the Nine Demonic Dragon?" Gu Xichao raised his eyebrows slightly, and bowed his hands in return, "I've admired your name for a long time, it's a pleasure to meet you."

"It's easy to say." Qi Shaoshang smiled heartily, and asked, "I don't know your son's surname?"

Gu Xichao said: "I'm Gu Xichao."

He has already heard about Qi Shaoshang, who is the head of Lianyunzhai and is known as the "Nine Existing Dragons". He is not only skilled in martial arts, but also has a heart of righteousness. The Yuan army, and after the establishment of the Ming Dynasty did not ask for credit from the court, it can be seen that they are indifferent to fame and fortune.

This is a rare talent, and it would be great if he could be persuaded to contribute to the court.

Gu Xichao couldn't help but feel solicitous in his heart, so he took the initiative to ask him to stay and drink with him.

Qi Shaoshang readily agreed.

The two have similar temperaments, it can be said that they hit it off right away, after a few glasses of wine, they have become close friends, talking about the world, and having a good time.Taking advantage of the wine, Gu Xichao also took out a huqin, plucked the strings and played a piece, the melody was heroic, at the climax, Qi Shaoshang got up suddenly, drew his sword out of its sheath, and danced with it casually.

Three days later, several other leaders of Lianyunzhai came to Qiting Restaurant to pick up Qi Shaoshang.Qi Shaoshang took advantage of the opportunity to invite Gu Xichao to be a guest, he thought about it for a moment, and thought about the matter of soliciting, so he readily agreed and took three hundred subordinates to go with them.

When they arrived at Lianyunzhai, Gu Xichao revealed his identity to Qi Shaoshang at the welcome banquet. The latter didn't have much surprise on his face when he heard it. He obviously had already guessed and knew that the purpose of his trip was to suppress The remnant Mongolian army, because Lianyunzhai was also chasing this group of people, so Qi Shaoshang did not hide any secrets, and told the truth one by one.

The two sides hit it off and immediately decided to jointly eliminate this remnant army.

After more than half a month of thorough investigation, after turning over almost every inch of yellow sand in the desert, they finally determined the hiding place of the remnants of Yuan soldiers.

In an ancient city deep in the desert that was severely eroded by wind and sand, nearly two thousand Mongolian remnants were hidden.

Gu Xichao brought the follow-up [-] soldiers, Qi Shaoshang took all the brothers in Lianyunzhai, intending to surround this ancient city, but who knows, someone moved faster than them. When they just arrived here, the city There were already corpses strewn all over the field, and the blood was wrapped in yellow sand, and there was not a single person left alive.

Gu Xichao seemed to have sensed it, and suddenly tightened the reins and looked into the distance. On the high sand dunes, there was a figure in a white cloak sitting on horseback looking down at him.The man's face was covered with a silver anti-sand mask, so he couldn't see his face clearly, but Gu Xichao somehow had a strong intuition that that man was the former heir of Prince Taiping, Gong Jiu.

The people on the sand dunes quickly disappeared into the vast desert on horseback. Gu Xichao looked away and ordered his subordinates to enter the ancient city to clean up the mess. Qi Shaoshang drove the horse closer to him, and asked casually looking at his thoughtful expression :"What's wrong?"

Gu Xichao came back to her senses, shook her head lightly, and said nothing.

Seeing that he didn't seem to want to say more, Qi Shaoshang didn't ask too much.

After a while, Gu Xichao turned his head, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, but his tone was very solemn: "Nowadays, there is still a shortage of talents in the court, and the Holy Majesty is eager to seek talents. I don't know if Brother Qi and Lianyunzhai are willing to be the Holy Majesty." effect?"

Qi Shaoshang raised his eyebrows slightly, looked straight into his eyes as if distinguishing the truth from the false, then lowered his eyes and pondered for a while, then raised his eyes and smiled and refused: "Brother Gu's kindness is appreciated, but it's a pity that Brother Yu doesn't like officialdom. I can only..."

"Brother Qi, don't rush to refuse." Gu Xichao raised his hand to interrupt him, and said, "Brother Qi must also know that the current sage is from the Ming religion, and most of the founding heroes in the court today were members of the Ming religion. Hero, even if the Holy Majesty is crowned the Great Treasure, he does not intend to loosen his jurisdiction over Jianghu, but it is obviously not appropriate for the government to do this now, so it needs people from Jianghu to take on this task." After a pause, he Continued: "Therefore, the Holy One established the 'Golden Wind and Rain Building' in the capital. Now there is still a lack of a building owner, and we urgently need a person of insight to be competent."

After Qi Shaoshang told the truth about these secrets, he knew that he was determined to escape, so he couldn't help sighing, and said with a wry smile: "Brother Gu, brother Gu, you are really..."

He didn't finish the rest of the sentence, but Gu Xichao understood his unfinished intention and smiled at him knowingly.

At this moment, Shan Zuo Tianyin, who had completed the mission, came to return to his command, Gu Xichao nodded to him, and then returned to Lianyunzhai with [-] soldiers and horses and Qi Shaoshang, temporarily stationed there, waiting for another day Return to the capital.

Three, Shen Lang

Ever since Yang Qingyan ascended the throne, the Tsing Yi Building he sent Ji Keng to was included in Shen Lang's Military Aircraft Office, which served as the eyes and ears of the imperial court and spread all over the world. Because my subordinates reported that another city had been built on the ruins of the ancient city of Loulan in the frontier, called "Happy City", and the owner of the city was surnamed Chai. As a member of the party, now the power has gradually expanded, and it means to separate one side.

After quickly reading the information in his hand, Shen Lang snorted lightly, and handed the letter to Gu Xichao who was beside him.

On the way to the frontier with his people, he met Gu Xichao who happened to be passing by, so he simply integrated the two teams into one, planning to wipe out this so-called "Happy King" together.

Now that the new dynasty has just been established, and the turmoil in all parties has not been completely settled, how can they tolerate someone who establishes himself as king in the territory they have worked so hard to conquer?

Shen Lang brought 1 people on this trip, plus Gu Xichao's 5000 people, a total of 5000 people, not to mention there are martial arts masters such as Qi Shaoshang among them, who wiped out a group of people who were gathered by gold and silver. Desperado, enough is enough.

The two men approached the city with a team of 5000 soldiers. Shen Lang looked at the ostentatious dragon pattern flag on the city wall, lazily hooked the corners of his lips, reached out and took a black gold longbow from the palm of the lieutenant general, and put it on With a special iron arrow, the arm was drawn to fully draw the bowstring, and then he let go suddenly, only to hear the sound of "buzz", the arrow flew out like a shooting star, and was heavily nailed to the flagpole at the top of the city. Under the force, it exploded immediately, became torn apart, and fell down with a bang, and the ostentatious dragon flag, without the support of the flagpole, floated down the city wall unsteadily, and was stepped on by the armored cavalry galloping out of Happy City. In the sand.

Gu Xichao had already brought his soldiers and horses to meet him, but Shen Lang rode on the whirlwind and stayed in place, and the subordinates behind him passed him in a group without disturbing him at all.

He paused because he recognized the man standing on the wall overseeing the battle.

Jolly King?Happy King!

Heh, it turned out to be his big enemy, Chai Yuguan!

The laziness in Shen Lang's eyes gradually faded, and the family heirloom sword in his hand was unsheathed inch by inch.

This sword was his father's usual weapon during his lifetime. It was originally lost on the night of the Shen family's extermination. Later, his adoptive father found it back and handed it back to him when he was crowned.

And today, he will use this sword to kill Chai Yuguan and avenge his family.

Shen Lang's sword eyebrows were slightly tight, and suddenly he used the blade of the sword to slap Xuanfeng's buttocks with a backhand. This spiritual steed connected with its master's heart, immediately raised its front hooves and let out a long hiss, and kicked it away mercilessly. The enemy trying to approach it flew out like a gust of wind just like its name, and stopped suddenly at a distance of more than ten meters from the city wall. The Wudang ladder learned from Zhang Wuji, stepping on the gaps in the city bricks, climbed up like a swimming dragon. After Gu Xichao found out what he was doing, he went out with both hands and cried out all the gods. The ax was thrown out for him, the two grew up together, the tacit understanding between each other is naturally very accessible, but in a short while, Shen Lang turned over and jumped onto the top of the wall.

Chai Yuguan, who was standing on the city wall to supervise the battle, finally changed his face when he saw this, and subconsciously stepped back. The guards on both sides hurriedly shouted "protect the prince", and blocked him with knives.

Shen Lang raised his eyebrows lightly. He found that Chai Yuguan's footsteps were flimsy, and his beard and hair were already gray. This was by no means what a person with high martial arts skills should look like. Thinking about what his adoptive father once said, he had crippled half of the other party's martial arts. Come on, the adoptive father was serious enough at that time, so that after so many years, Chai Yuguan not only failed to recover his strength, but even left behind an incurable wound.

This is really... very satisfying.

Shen Lang's eyes sank slightly, and the long sword in his hand was raised, shining dazzlingly under the scorching desert sun. Suddenly, a white light appeared, and before the two leading guards could react, they felt a chill in their throats. He fell to the ground with a bang, and the astonishment that could not be retracted remained in his wide-open eyes.

Shen Tianjun's self-created Tianjue Sanshi was originally famous for his lightning-fast sword moves, and now Shen Lang is even more outstanding, so that when he made a move, the opponent had not had time to react, and he had already died in his arms under the sword.

The guards around Chai Yuguan were not Shen Lang's opponents at all, and they all died soon, leaving him alone to confront Shen Lang.It's a pity that after so many years, he tried his best to recover less than [-]% of his skill in his heyday. Even if he resisted desperately, his end was already doomed.

After being pierced by a sword, he spat out a mouthful of blood froth unwillingly, his tiger eyes widened, and there was a wheezing sound in his throat, but he couldn't utter a complete sentence until his death.

Shen Lang put his sword back into its sheath indifferently, and kicked his body off the city wall with one kick.

Chai Yuguan's subordinates were originally a group of villains who were bought by money, nothing more than a mob. After his death, the trees fell and the monkeys scattered, and the dead fled. In less than an hour, the campaign had already come to an end.

The setting sun in the desert was like blood. Shen Lang, Gu Xichao, and Qi Shaoshang rode three horses, standing on the high sand dunes. After a long silence, they suddenly laughed at the same time.

Fourth, the end

Following Yang Qingshao's marriage, and the departure of Yang Qingyan, Gu Xichao, Shen Lang, Zhang Wuji and other juniors, the peace of the past has returned to the main altar of the Ming Sect's Bright Summit.

Ding Minjun looked at the suddenly deserted courtyard, and frowned slightly in discomfort.

It was rare that there was nothing to deal with today, so Yang Xiao moved a few chairs and put them in the yard, enjoying flowers and cooking tea with her, and invited Hu Qingniu and his wife to accompany her to have fun.

When Wang Nangu came, she brought a jar of plums that she had pickled. She sat down and put it in Ding Minjun's hand, and said to her, "I see that you have not had a good appetite these days. I pickled these by myself. It's sweet and sour. You can eat two when you are fine, but don’t eat too much, so as not to knock your teeth.”

Ding Minjun thanked her with a smile, and said: "It's probably because I was in a bad mood after the children left, which affected my appetite. It's not a big deal. It will be fine in two days." In the mouth, as expected, the tongue immediately became salivary, and the taste was very good.

But Hu Qingniu looked at her face and said slowly: "I don't think your complexion is very good, I'm afraid you haven't been able to rest for the past few days, okay?" Before Ding Minjun could deny it, Yang Xiao frowned slightly and said : "That's true. These days, she always tosses and turns and sleeps restlessly. She just says that she misses the children...Mr. Hu, please show her."

Hu Qingniu nodded, spread his hands towards her, and said to her: "Come on, let me take your pulse."

Although Ding Minjun felt that they were making a fuss over a molehill, they still cared about her, so he didn't say much, and stretched out his hand cooperatively.

Hu Qingniu stroked his already long beard with one hand, and rested his hand on her veins. Unexpectedly, after a while, his originally leisurely complexion gradually became dignified. He looked at her in surprise, and then looked at the side. Yang Xiao sat up straight and asked her to stretch out her other hand.

Ding Minjun was confused by his sudden change of attitude, he switched hands to let him feel his pulse in surprise, thinking that he was suffering from some serious illness, and looked at Yang Xiao who was sitting next to her with some anxiety, but saw that he was completely His face darkened, and he subconsciously held her free hand tightly.

Hu Qingniu finally withdrew his hand, heaved a sigh of relief as if confirming something, looked at the couple on the opposite side with a strange expression, opened his mouth, and finally coughed lightly amidst Yang Xiao's increasingly ugly expression, holding back She arched her hands towards him with a smile and said, "Hey, what, Yang Jiaozhu's sword is not old, congratulations, congratulations..."

Yang Xiao was stunned, his mind was full of buzzing, he couldn't react for a while, and blurted out: "Where does the joy come from?"

But Ding Minjun immediately understood the meaning of his words, lowered his head and reached out to caress his lower abdomen, and murmured in disbelief: "How, how is it possible..."

Yang Xiao's clever head finally returned to normal. He put his hand on the back of her hand with a slight trembling, looked at her still flat abdomen, suddenly raised his head to look at Hu Qingniu, and asked him for proof: "Min Jun, this is... ... happy?"

Hu Qingniu nodded with a smile.

Yang Xiao's fingers tightened suddenly, and they were pressed into Ding Minjun's fingers. He was worried that he would hurt her if he used too much force, so he quickly let go, he was so excited that he didn't know what to do.

Ding Minjun looked funny and embarrassed, covered his eyes with his hands, and said in a broken voice: "How is it possible... I'm almost 40 years old..." At this point, she suddenly felt a little angry, and bent her elbows hard Abducting him, he said angrily, "It's all your fault!"

"My fault, my fault!" Yang Xiao quickly responded without saying a word, for fear that she would get angry with him.

Looking at them, Wang Nangu covered her lips and smiled silently, and persuaded: "Don't be angry, don't be angry, this is a big happy event, it's time to celebrate it! There are a few children, don't forget to tell them This is good news."

Ding Minjun froze slightly when he heard the words, he withdrew his hand and turned around angrily, and said resolutely: "You, you come to write a letter..."

"Okay, okay, I'll write it, I'll write it!" Yang Xiao agreed again without saying a word, now even if the world is big, there is nothing bigger than her.

……

Half a month later, an urgent letter from Guangmingding was hastily sent into the imperial study room. A servant who was on duty that day said vaguely that he didn't know what was written in the letter. Lord Gu and Lord Shen, who had always looked lazy, changed their faces at the same time, and the Holy One even lost his composure and dropped a teacup.

At the same time, after reading the contents of the letter, Yang Qingshao in Wanmei Villa stared dumbfoundedly at his two-month-pregnant belly, and said to Ximen, "I, I haven't had time to tell Daddy yet. Good news for my mother..."

In other words, if nothing else happened, her child would be more than a month older than the younger brother or younger sister in her mother's arms...?

Yang Qingshao: "..."

Great for my dad.

Ximen Fuxue: "...um."
