Be an official

The valley outside the king's city is a little far from the town, and it takes half a day to ride fast. It is estimated that it will take two days to come back in the valley with cliffs, let alone meet the wolves again.

Everyone took a rest under the tree. Shao Yan came over with a water bag in his hand and handed it to Yang Rui who was sitting on the stone with a pale face. Regardless of King Yu's sideways gaze, Shao Yan sat down by himself and said with a smile, "Mr. Yang is a literati, it's better to spend less time worrying about such things."

Literati, sitting in the study, reading books, and writing.

He thought that his family, Luoer, was also like this.

Shao Yan squinted at the gray-green grass in the distance, "Where is Mr. Yang from?"

Yang Rui glanced at King Yu, "Thank you, Prime Minister, for your concern. Caomin had been living in the northwest before."

"Oh, the people raised by the water and soil in the northwest are tall and tall. It seems that Mr. Yang's family moved here, not a native of the northwest."

Yang Rui bowed, "What the prime minister said is very true. The Caomin's family is from Hanzhong, and their fathers have lived in the Northwest for a long time."

Shao Yan beckoned Jiang Xing to come over, took out a decoration made of animal teeth from him, and asked, "I got a gift from a friend some time ago. I heard that people in remote areas in the northwest like to hang this kind of thing for self-defense. Exorcism, Mr. Yang, please show me if it is right."

Yang Rui caught it carefully, thinking in his heart that Shaoyan's animal teeth were decorated with different styles of grinding, bone grinding and piercing, so he said with a smile, "I'm afraid this was imitated by the people doing business along the border. The style of the land where the grass people live is different."

Shao Yan smiled, and handed the animal tooth to Jiang Xing casually, asking him to put it away.

This string of animal bone decorations is not an imitation, but was bought by the Shaoyantuo people from the local people in a town in the northwest and closest to the north.

Although the shape and habits are somewhat different, it is very common there.

That place is an important border defense area of ​​the Kungan Kingdom, and the imperial court has sent heavy troops to guard it, and the troops stationed on the border also have some ties with Shaoyan.

From this point of view, Yang Rui has never been to the northwest border. Shao Yan thought that King Yu must have wooed the soldiers stationed there, but if Yang Rui had never been to the military adviser, it might not be so easy to win people's hearts.

However, the northwest where King Yu is located is on the south side. Once he rebelled, the emperor could completely go north with his troops, and the troops on the border went south to outflank King Yu.

Shao Yan thought, after so many years in the northwest border, it's time to send someone to talk about it.

King Yu was originally looking for trouble because Shao Yan was on the way, but Shao Yan didn't say a word to him except for the farce outside the city gate. On the contrary, Shao Yan seemed to be more interested in Yang Rui.

"My lord, the prime minister, and this king's disciple share similar tastes."

Shao Yan smiled politely, "Literati and poets, I feel sorry for each other. When I saw Mr. Yang, I was like Boya Ziqi, and I couldn't finish talking with Mr. Yang."

King Yu poohed to himself, he was ashamed to say that he was a literati, is there such a vulgar literati?

Seeing King Yu's displeasure, Yang Rui was even more perplexed and irritated. The prime minister didn't tell him anything about history, books, music and art, but chatted nonsense, out of tune at all!

The sky was getting dark, and Shao Yan and King Yu's men and horses had reached the edge of the cliff. Standing on the edge and looking down, the cold wind whizzed faintly inside, the bottom was bottomless, and there were overgrown trees. Except for the sound of ghosts crying and wolves howling, it was the wind.

"It's already late, the way down the mountain is hard to find, why don't we rest here?" Shao Yan said.

King Yu nodded and ordered people to set up camp on the spot, press the tent and light the bonfire.

Shao Yan asked Jiang Xing to come over and touched his hand, "Is it cold? Stop standing, go to sleep, don't worry about it."

Jiang Xing shook her head, and wrapped her cloak tightly around her body. They are all bad guys, so I can't rest assured.

Shao Yan had no choice but to take out the jug, drank half of it himself, and handed the remaining half to Jiang Xing.

In the middle of the night.

Staying close to the cold pool at night feels as if the cold winter is coming, and the cold air blowing from the cold pool under the cliff is icy cold and has a faint fragrance.

Jiang Xing stood on the edge of the cliff and looked at it, as if he heard a wolf howling, but it sounded like the wind, like a baby crying.

It was very quiet all around, and everyone except the guards had already gone to sleep.

Jiang Xing rubbed her nose that was red from the cold, holding the sword, feeling the faint fragrance in the wind, very much like a kind of clear flower wine that Jiang Yue likes to drink.

The dawn is gradually breaking out in the sky.

Shao Yan wrapped a thick and warm cloak around Jiang Xing, stood and stretched himself, glanced at the quiet King Yu's troops over there, ran into the woods by himself, and disappeared after a while.

When the sky was bright, Yang Rui handed the medicine to King Yu in the tent, King Yu raised his head and drank it, and asked in a hoarse voice, "What happened to Shaoyan?"

"I went to the woods before dawn and just came back. My lord, do you want me to send a letter back and take the young master out of the mansion?"

King Yu frowned, "What are you worried about?"

Yang Rui told Yu Wang what was in his heart, and felt that Shao Yan's focus on himself was very suspicious, and he was afraid that it was the young master who would inadvertently reveal it.

King Yu snorted coldly, listening to Shao Yan's undisguised laughter outside, his eyes showed a bit of disgust, "No, this time is a good opportunity for him to prove himself."

Yang Rui nodded, "Yes."

Shao Yan stood with his back facing the rising sun, behind him was a golden glow, if he was wearing a battle armor, he would be as solemn and splendid as a god of war descending to earth.

Seeing King Yu walking out of the tent, he smiled and said, "My lord, is it worth it to stay overnight on the mountain? I heard from the emperor that the lord is not feeling well. When I go back this time, I will ask the doctor in the mansion to come and see the lord. "

Naturally, King Yu didn't sleep well. It was cold in the mountains and the bed was hard. His eyes were a bit disgusted. He said a few words to the servants around him, and the people around him started camping.

The corners of Shao Yan's lips curled up, he was an old man, he would die after a night's sleep, and he still wanted to be king.

In the prime minister's mansion, Chen Huanluo was sitting in the hall, he was bowing his head seriously about a box of unusual herbs.

Rong Lingjun was opposite him, dressed in crescent white robes, rich and handsome.

Han Xu propped his cheeks, feeling extremely bored, that bastard Shao Yan didn't allow him to leave the mansion, and made him look at the person in front of him.

Hmph, your own person, come by yourself, even if you stab a knife in the back, it won't be him!

"I heard that it was dug out from the snow mountain. I didn't know if it would be useful, so I brought it back for you." Rong Lingjun said.

Chen Huanluo poked a small head out of his cuffs, rubbed against the medicine box, and sniffed around with his small nose.

Almost the whole hairball jumped into the medicine box, huddling among the dark branches, and after a while, it jumped out with a small root, and spit it into Chen Huanluo's hand.

Shake the little ass.

look at ya.

Chen Huanluo broke off the branch, and the outside was covered with a layer of damp withered skin, revealing the thin, white and tender inside of the chopsticks.

For a while, the room was filled with a strong fragrance.

Rong Lingjun frowned slightly, with thin sweat slowly oozing from his forehead, he still smiled and asked, "What is this?"

Han Xu also shrugged her nose, feeling that the fragrance was a little too much for her to bear.

Chen Huanluo raised his head suddenly, his eyes showed a bit of shock, his body became stiff, he stared at Rong Lingjun, his lips squirmed, and his face turned pale for a moment.

Rong Lingjun was a little stiff, stood up reluctantly, walked to his side, the closer he got, even his body trembled inadvertently.

"Huan Luo, do you know what this is?"

"Where did you... find it?"

Rong Lingjun bent his lips, "My father gave it to me, saying that someone sent it to the palace, Huan Luo, do you know what it is?" He walked over step by step, and when he walked in front of Chen Huanluo, his body softened.

Chen Huanluo hugged him hastily, his body trembling, he closed his eyes, and wrapped the medicinal material exuding a strong fragrance in the cloth in his hand, enveloping all the fragrance.

"Brother Rong, what's wrong with you!" Han Xu hurried to help Rong Lingjun.

Chen Huanluo lowered his eyes, his voice trembling and hoarse, "I'm sorry."

Rong Lingjun smiled.

When the scent from the tip of his nose dissipated, Rong Lingjun's pale complexion also recovered.

"Huan Luo, if it was Shao Yan, would you have the heart?"

Chen Huanluo's eyes widened suddenly, his heart was suffocated, his body was stiff, his lips squirmed, but he didn't say anything.

Han Xu turned around and grabbed Chen Huanluo's neck abruptly, pressing him on the table. Qu He, who had been hiding in the dark, jumped out to stop him immediately, "What did you do to him! You are so vicious! I am now Just kill you!"
